42
00:02:08,239 --> 00:02:11,760
year. Uh it was excellent opportunity.

43
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,000
The themes were infrastructure, housing,

44
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,800
and AI was also a prominent topic for many of the

45
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,760
seminars. Excellent information. Uh, I

46
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,720

47
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,560

consolidated funding under one ministry.

51
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,680
Pretty exciting. And I was able to

52
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,239
follow it up uh, by meeting with senior

53
00:02:38,239 --> 00:02:42,319
build homes uh, staff uh, and that

54
00:02:42,319 --> 00:02:45,680
turned into a

55
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,599
prepping and getting together operation.

56
00:02:49,599 --> 00:02:52,000
So that's moving on very quickly. We're

57
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,680
very pleased to see the government

58
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,680
is is willing to work with us so

59
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,710
quickly.

60
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,840
I was also I was very very pleased to uh

61
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,959
to be able to thank Minister Dominic

62
00:03:06,959 --> 00:03:11,760
Blanc personally for his uh efforts and

63
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,120
his support for our wastewater treatment

64
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,920
plant. And I was also very pleased to

00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:18,720
know that Mr.

66
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,560
is is uh continues to be aware and

67
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,879
supportive of our current infrastructure

68
00:03:24,879 --> 00:03:27,840
needs in

69
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:33,270
fortuitous.

70
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,080
I was also able to meet with uh gosh

71
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,159
hundreds of mayors and other elected

72
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:40,879
officials from across the country and

73
00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:43,360
share some of our challenges which are

74
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,519
very very similar municipalities

75
00:03:45,519 --> 00:03:47,920
struggling with infrastructure, water,

76
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,840
sewer, the cost of roads. It's all going

77
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:56,159
up, but we are also to share some wins

78
00:03:56,159 --> 00:03:59,599
and it was just a great opportunity to

79
00:03:59,599 --> 00:04:02,000
see how the communities are doing and

80
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,319
how they're they're meeting the

81
00:04:04,319 --> 00:04:06,959
challenges that we have as well. Uh, and

82
00:04:06,959 --> 00:04:08,560
I invited them all to Tino and I think

83
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,239
they're all coming. So, that's great.

84
00:04:10,239 --> 00:04:15,110
It's about 3,000 people.

85
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,120
We were uh we were able to post

86
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:26,150
chief boots

87
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,880
from

88
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:35,840
they came out to to share their

89
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:37,840
some of their opinions on water in the

90
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:39,360
region

91
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,440
wealth at the time

92
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,240
and I was just so pleased uh to be part

93
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,840
of a region of communities

94
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:55,830
uh that are so supportive of each other

95
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:58,160
all the way up to

96
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,639
it's just you know

97
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:04,800
it's great to be on on the west coast

98
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,120
that we're all west coast communities

99
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,350
each other

100
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:19,909

101
00:05:19,919 --> 00:05:24,400

You are in attendance online via Zoom.

00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,720
You can do so now using the Q&A

00:06:36,319 --> 00:06:37,199

128
00:06:37,199 --> 00:06:38,720
>> Perfect. We can hear you. You've got two

129
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:39,600

130
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,600
>> Great. Good evening, mayor and council.

131
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,120
Uh my name is John Borsay and I'm

132
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,800
speaking on behalf of Woodsmere Holdings

133
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,600
Corp regarding item 10.4 on tonight's

134
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,080
agenda, which is our zoning amendment

135
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,160
application for the proposed project at

136
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,759
825 Campbell Street in Tofino.

137
00:06:55,759 --> 00:06:57,280
We appreciate the opportunity to bring

138
00:06:57,280 --> 00:06:58,960
this application forward and look

139
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,880
forward to working constructively with

140
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,199
district staff as the review process

141
00:07:03,199 --> 00:07:05,520
continues. Our goal is to deliver a

142
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,039
thoughtful project that responds to

143
00:07:07,039 --> 00:07:09,440
local housing needs, respects to Feno's

144
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,120
unique character, and contributes

145
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,440
positively to the community. We

146
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,039
recognize that zoning amendment

147
00:07:15,039 --> 00:07:16,960
applications require careful technical

148
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,639
review, including consideration of

149
00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:20,800
infrastructure, neighborhood fit,

150
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,800
environmental context, and long-term

151
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,880
community objectives. We respect the

152
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,560
role that staff play in that process and

153
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:27,440
are committed to working

154
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,440
collaboratively, transparently, and in

155
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,360
good faith to address any issues as they

156
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,680
arise. Housing delivery in coastal

157
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,120
communities like Tofino is challenging

158
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,800
and a successful project requires

159
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,720
partnership between local government and

160
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,720
development community. We believe this

161
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,720
application represents an opportunity to

162
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,560
add muchneeded housing while supporting

163
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,560
the broader goals of the district and we

164
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:47,759
look forward to continuing the

165
00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:49,280
conversation and appreciate your

166
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,080
consideration of item 10.4. Thank you

167
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,919
for your time and uh best this evening.

168
00:07:55,919 --> 00:08:04,550
>> Thank you, Mr.

169
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,360
No other uh

170
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,240
comment. Move on to delegations. We have

171
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:15,199
a delegation from Mr. Bob Hansen

172
00:08:15,199 --> 00:08:53,509
and

173
00:08:53,519 --> 00:08:56,080
Mr. Reed, can you uh hear me? I'm just

174
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,640
we're just working through some uh some

175
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,720
video uh setup here.

176
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,920
>> Yeah. Can you hear me and see me?

177
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,440
>> We can now.

178
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,680
>> Yeah, Bob is still in the waiting room,

179
00:09:07,680 --> 00:09:09,120
I believe. I think he needs to be

180
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,240
permitted in. Um

181
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,800
and he just texted me, so hopefully we

182
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,080
can get him in. Uh he had six minutes of

183
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,160
this of a delegation spiel and then I

184
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,760
had the last four.

185
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,279
>> Sure. Well, we'll just take our time and

186
00:09:23,279 --> 00:09:24,399
make sure that

187
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:25,920
>> Yeah.

188
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,920
>> We don't have a waiting room enabled by

189
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,680
the Zoom. So, he should just be able to

190
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:31,760
enter automatically when he clicks

191
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,519
through the registration link.

192
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:35,040
>> Okay.

193
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:36,240
Maybe we'll just give you a couple

194
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,480
seconds to to reach out to Bahal and

195
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,120
make sure he's making his way into the

196
00:09:41,120 --> 00:10:01,110
Zoom room.

197
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,670
Thank you for your patience.

198
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:16,470
» No worries.

199
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,800
He did send me his uh

200
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,880
what's he got here? He did send me his

201
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:33,670
notes if need be.

202
00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:35,839
Maybe you could just reach out to him

203
00:10:35,839 --> 00:10:42,389
and see if he can uh re-enter.

204
00:10:42,399 --> 00:10:44,079
» Yeah, I sent him an email with the

205
00:10:44,079 --> 00:11:10,389
updated link.

206
00:11:10,399 --> 00:11:12,079
think he may be trying to join. So, I'll

207
00:11:12,079 --> 00:11:13,440
just give it one minute here. I see

208
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,440
someone entering the second. Chris Reed,

209
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,920
who I'm thinking is probably off.

210
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,519
>> Unless there's two of you.

211
00:11:19,519 --> 00:11:21,360
>> There is not two of me. There he is.

212
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:29,350
>> Perfect. Okay.

213
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,680
I had to send him my link, so that's why

214
00:11:31,680 --> 00:11:34,640
he has my name.

215
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,360
>> We We know who he is.

216
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:49,430
>> Uh, if we could get him unmuted, please.

217
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:59,110
Bob, you're still muted.

218
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,640
How's that?

219
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,470
>> There you go.

220
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,590
» Okay.

221
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,629
» Excellent.

222
00:12:10,639 --> 00:12:13,839
» All right. So, I should begin then.

223
00:12:13,839 --> 00:12:15,440
>> Sure. Take it away. You guys got it.

224
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:16,959
>> Okay.

225
00:12:16,959 --> 00:12:20,160
So action plan update year two

226
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,880
compliance enforcement emphasis and

227
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,040
other actions.

228
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,519
Thank you your worship and council for

229
00:12:27,519 --> 00:12:30,240
the opportunity to present today. My

230
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,200
name is Bob Hansen, Wild Safe BC project

231
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,880
lead on the action plan to enhance the

232
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,760
bear resistant of the waste management

233
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,200
system.

234
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,079
I'm here with Chris Reed, the Wild Safe

235
00:12:44,079 --> 00:12:47,920
BC Pacific Rim community coordinator.

236
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,279
I'd like to provide some context for our

237
00:12:51,279 --> 00:12:53,519
delegation.

238
00:12:53,519 --> 00:12:57,519
Recent BNTG surveys show an increase in

239
00:12:57,519 --> 00:12:59,600
residents putting carts out the night

240
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,360
before.

241
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,160
Damaged cart surveys have revealed that

242
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,079
many residents

243
00:13:06,079 --> 00:13:08,720
have damaged carts that can no longer be

244
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,839
secured against bears.

245
00:13:11,839 --> 00:13:14,959
Many, if not most, residents have not

246
00:13:14,959 --> 00:13:17,040
secured their carts against bears

247
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,720
accessing them or dragging them away.

248
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,880
It has also been observed that many

249
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,079
businesses with lift bar commercial

250
00:13:26,079 --> 00:13:29,360
garbage bins and commercial grease bins

251
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,560
persist in leaving their bins unsecured,

252
00:13:32,560 --> 00:13:37,279
making them easily accessible to bears.

253
00:13:37,279 --> 00:13:40,959
These situations, contrary to the Tofino

254
00:13:40,959 --> 00:13:43,839
wildlife attractant management bylaw and

255
00:13:43,839 --> 00:13:46,480
the BC Wildlife Act, create the

256
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,680
conditions for a return to the cycle of

257
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:52,000
human bear conflicts and bear

258
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,720
destructions.

259
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,560
Wild Safe BC Pacific Rim, the ACRD

260
00:13:58,560 --> 00:14:00,560
district staff and other community

261
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:03,920
partners have been engaged in continuous

262
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,800
education and outreach around bearer

263
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,959
resistant cart management for the past

264
00:14:08,959 --> 00:14:10,880
three years.

265
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,199
Similar efforts around preventing human

266
00:14:13,199 --> 00:14:16,240
bear conflicts involving commercial bins

267
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,560
has been ongoing since 2018.

268
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,519
The year 2 strategy of the action plan

269
00:14:23,519 --> 00:14:27,199
identifies the need to create awareness

270
00:14:27,199 --> 00:14:29,519
that following best practices for

271
00:14:29,519 --> 00:14:32,399
managing residential carts and

272
00:14:32,399 --> 00:14:35,680
commercial waste bins is mandatory

273
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,800
rather than optional.

274
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,880
The most common reason heard from

275
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,120
residents and businesses for not

276
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,320
following required best practices is

277
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,120
that we've never had a problem with

278
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,440
bears.

279
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,240
The reality is that by waiting for

280
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,639
something to happen, the cycle of human

281
00:14:56,639 --> 00:15:00,320
bear conflict is perpetuated.

282
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,440
A bear that gets a food reward is very

283
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,920
likely on a one-way road to food

284
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,880
conditioning, conflict, and an untimely

285
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,160
end. The only way to break the cycle is

286
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,560
not through reacting to conflict, but

287
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:18,320
rather through prevention of conflict.

288
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,560
The acknowledged bears smart community

289
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,440
goal is to be in a place where following

290
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,760
best practices for human bear conflict

291
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,760
prevention is the community norm

292
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,680
routine.

293
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,680
We've submitted several documents for

294
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,480
your consideration and information.

295
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,760
One, a progress report on the activities

296
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,160
of the action plan.

297
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:46,959
Two, a specific request and proposal for

298
00:15:46,959 --> 00:15:49,759
the amendment to the Tofino wildlife

299
00:15:49,759 --> 00:15:52,880
attractant management bylaw to specify

300
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,839
the requirements for secure securing

301
00:15:55,839 --> 00:15:58,880
commercial lift bar garbage bins and

302
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,360
commercial grease bins.

303
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,720
and a draft commercial lift bar bin

304
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,160
decal to raise business awareness of the

305
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,519
legal requirements.

306
00:16:11,519 --> 00:16:13,920
We'd like to express our commitment to

307
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,959
support in any way we can the increased

308
00:16:16,959 --> 00:16:19,759
efforts of Tofino bylaw services for

309
00:16:19,759 --> 00:16:22,560
compliance and enforcement around the

310
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,560
prohibition of putting carts out the

311
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,360
night before pickup. The requirement to

312
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,079
seek repairs to damaged carts as soon as

313
00:16:30,079 --> 00:16:33,120
possible. The anchoring of carts to

314
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,519
prevent being knocked over and dragged

315
00:16:35,519 --> 00:16:39,040
away. the best practices for secure

316
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,199
securing commercial garbage and grease

317
00:16:41,199 --> 00:16:43,600
bins and other provisions of the

318
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:48,079
wildlife attractant management bylaw.

319
00:16:48,079 --> 00:16:50,639
Looking beyond 2026,

320
00:16:50,639 --> 00:16:53,279
we'd also like to request that mayor and

321
00:16:53,279 --> 00:16:56,000
council consider participating along

322
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,639
with the district of Uklid and other

323
00:16:58,639 --> 00:17:02,800
regional partners in funding of BC

324
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,280
conservation officer service wildlife

325
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,240
safety response officer residing on the

326
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,720
west coast.

327
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,679
Lastly, conflict prevention outreach and

328
00:17:13,679 --> 00:17:16,319
training continues to be delivered by

329
00:17:16,319 --> 00:17:19,600
Wild Safe BC Pacific Rim. And I'm going

330
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,240
to pass on to Chris now to describe a

331
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,630
new initiative in this regard.

332
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,960
» Thanks. Thanks, Bob. Thanks, Mayor and

333
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,320
Council. Uh, yeah, as you all know, we

334
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,919
do all the same old uh Wild Safe BC

335
00:17:35,919 --> 00:17:39,360
public education and outreach. So that's

336
00:17:39,360 --> 00:17:42,160
all ongoing with businesses, with

337
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,799
residents, with visitors.

338
00:17:44,799 --> 00:17:49,039
Um, a new initiative is the

339
00:17:49,039 --> 00:17:51,679
bear or sorry, the neighborhood champion

340
00:17:51,679 --> 00:17:53,840
program.

341
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,559
So we have residents in our communities

342
00:17:56,559 --> 00:17:59,200
who are con continuing to promote the

343
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,000
conversation between you know

344
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,240
governments and the community about

345
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,720
wildlife and how to keep them safe and

346
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,280
how to keep ourselves safe. So these

347
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:10,880
passionate folks that are in the

348
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,720
communities they have an understanding

349
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:14,799
and they've seen the negative impacts

350
00:18:14,799 --> 00:18:18,480
that humans have had on wildlife um and

351
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,360
they are driven to help our community.

352
00:18:21,360 --> 00:18:23,520
So, this neighborhood champion program

353
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,679
helps those individuals feel more

354
00:18:25,679 --> 00:18:28,960
equipped to help and offer solutions to

355
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,600
their neighbors. I know if I was in the

356
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,120
position of just being a neighbor, I

357
00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:37,039
don't know how confident I would feel in

358
00:18:37,039 --> 00:18:39,520
just trying to spread Wild Safe BC's

359
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,200
messaging if I didn't know them

360
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,039
personally or didn't have good

361
00:18:43,039 --> 00:18:45,520
communications. So, this is me opening

362
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,160
up and telling people what we're trying

363
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,120
to get out there and giving them the

364
00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:53,600
permission to do so and some of the

365
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:57,120
resources. So, I'm offering Champions

366
00:18:57,120 --> 00:19:00,240
resources such as a ch an at-home

367
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,960
checklist, super simple list of

368
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,200
attractants for people at home to go

369
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,200
through in their yard. uh access to our

370
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,039
resources that we give out. So,

371
00:19:11,039 --> 00:19:13,360
stainless steel carabiners and anchoring

372
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:17,120
methods um and obviously our educational

373
00:19:17,120 --> 00:19:20,400
material. We'll also be familiarizing

374
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,120
these champions with the bylaws that are

375
00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:26,799
in place and may be enforced. Hopefully,

376
00:19:26,799 --> 00:19:30,000
this helps with getting neighborhoods

377
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,400
in check and hopefully getting

378
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,160
attractants down to a minimum.

379
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,039
Um, the final step of the Champion

380
00:19:39,039 --> 00:19:42,160
program could be me assessing homeowners

381
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,039
that are willing uh for me to come onto

382
00:19:45,039 --> 00:19:47,600
their property and just assess their

383
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,600
yard. It wouldn't take any longer than

384
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,200
10 minutes. Um, I I do these assessments

385
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,799
for businesses and for campgrounds. So

386
00:19:56,799 --> 00:19:59,919
if that was uh you know willing and

387
00:19:59,919 --> 00:20:02,960
optional for certain streets um then

388
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,480
it'd be really nice to have certain

389
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,640
sections of the community and the

390
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:13,600
neighborhood uh you know known secure uh regions of the neighborhood.

391
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,799
Um, as of right now, the incentive is

392
00:20:16,799 --> 00:20:19,520
just recognition by Wildsafe, myself,

393
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,960
and I'm hoping the district council can

394
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,880
also um recognize these champions as

395
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,159
important um people within the community

396
00:20:30,159 --> 00:20:34,000
helping to preserve our wildlife.

397
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,000
Um Bob kind of hit the nail on the head

398
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,360
with what uh what what's asked of you

399
00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:43,919
guys, but I'll just re uh reiterate that

400
00:20:43,919 --> 00:20:47,520
we thank you council for having you know

401
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,919
ears and listening to the community and

402
00:20:49,919 --> 00:20:52,559
asking all the right questions. That's

403
00:20:52,559 --> 00:20:55,360
very important. Um

404
00:20:55,360 --> 00:21:00,799
and we have had a human wildlife

405
00:21:00,799 --> 00:21:05,360
um assessment of Tofino outlines major

406
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:08,480
wildlife corridors and just promoting

407
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,840
the protection of natural spaces even

408
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,400
within very close proximity to urban

409
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,640
areas. They help save wildlife lives.

410
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,080
um helping number two to help enforce

411
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,559
wildlife attractant bylaws. So just

412
00:21:24,559 --> 00:21:26,320
making sure that these amendments are

413
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,559
being passed. Um it's it's crucial for

414
00:21:30,559 --> 00:21:35,840
um you know enforcement to have action

415
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,200
um to take action in the communities.

416
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,919
And then just reiterating that there's

417
00:21:41,919 --> 00:21:44,960
public awareness and education um along

418
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:46,559
with these and that there's lots of

419
00:21:46,559 --> 00:21:50,080
people hoping to to help.

420
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:56,310
Um thank you. That's that's all I have.

421
00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:01,120
» Thank you very much. Thanks. Um,

422
00:22:01,120 --> 00:22:06,720
it's a it's a badge of honor not to have had zero

423
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,280
bears destroyed over the last couple

424
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:15,430
years in the municipality itself. It's

425
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,960
uh sad to see that maybe non-compliance

426
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,200
with securing

427
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,679
latching uh bins residential and

428
00:22:23,679 --> 00:22:25,200
commercial could put that at risk. So,

429
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,640
thank you very much for bringing that to

430
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,799
our attention. I'm going to open it up

431
00:22:28,799 --> 00:22:32,240
to council for questions and comments.

432
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:32,960
Steer.

433
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,400
>> Thank you through the chair. Thank you

434
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,400
Chris. Nice to meet you and and Bob once

435
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,640
again. Um just a couple of comments.

436
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:39,840
Certainly Chris in your last

437
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,080
presentation here or the last bit around

438
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:43,840
uh promoting community champions and

439
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,520
maybe there's a way we can uh the

440
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,120
district can help in formalizing that a

441
00:22:47,120 --> 00:22:49,520
bit more. Uh you had some some great

442
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,640
ideas around that. Um and then uh Bob,

443
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,440
this was uh in regards to uh I I think

444
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:56,960
there was one of the uh potential

445
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,640
amendments to the bylaw and very much

446
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,240
supportive of that and certainly working

447
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,720
with staff to be able to uh make that

448
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,200
official. Um and then the one uh you had

449
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:06,799
mentioned I know you cluded had brought

450
00:23:06,799 --> 00:23:09,360
forward a funding request uh very late

451
00:23:09,360 --> 00:23:11,600
in the budget season around the uh

452
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,760
addition of a CO officer and I'm just

453
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,919
wondering Bob as maybe the the more

454
00:23:15,919 --> 00:23:18,159
appropriate area as a regional uh

455
00:23:18,159 --> 00:23:20,080
initiative is to be looking I I

456
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,720
certainly think there would be support

457
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,679
on council but certainly uh through the

458
00:23:25,679 --> 00:23:27,520
uh and it may be that it has to the

459
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,400
creation of of a service or maybe a much

460
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:31,919
more regional approach and then we can

461
00:23:31,919 --> 00:23:33,280
encompass all those communities. ities

462
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,760
on the west coast uh through the ACRD.

463
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,240
It may be the best place uh to put that

464
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,000
rather than the individual uh

465
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,159
municipalities. So it certainly might be

466
00:23:42,159 --> 00:23:44,320
this presentation might be great uh at

467
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,960
ACRD as well uh to be able to bring that

468
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,120
forward and to be able to support uh

469
00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:50,960
potentially a regional service for that

470
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,440
co position.

471
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,320
>> Yes, thank you. Uh we will be putting

472
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,120
forward a request to give a delegation

473
00:23:59,120 --> 00:24:01,440
to the West Coast Committee.

474
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,480
>> Right. Perfect. talk about.

475
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,240
>> Oh, it's from councilors. I do have a

476
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,480
potential motion if council would like

477
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,919
to support the request

478
00:24:13,919 --> 00:24:17,679
wild BC to to have the report and the

479
00:24:17,679 --> 00:24:24,950
proposed WM

480
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,080
referred to staff for review and

481
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,720
council.

482
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,240
>> Yeah. Council. Yes. Thumbs up. Okay.

483
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,559
Then we'll move from the chair that the

484
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:40,799
wild safety report and proposed wildlife

485
00:24:40,799 --> 00:24:42,720
attractant and management bylaw

486
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,480
amendments

487
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,840
uh be referred to staff for review

488
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,960
and report back to council. Second by

489
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,240
councelor steer. Hear the comments. All

490
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,720
in favor

491
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,039
motion carried. And I just want a quick

492
00:24:59,039 --> 00:25:03,679
a question from staff. Uh clarif

493
00:25:03,679 --> 00:25:08,559
discuss I believe referring

494
00:25:08,559 --> 00:25:12,480
co position funding to 2027 financial

495
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,880
planning process. So that is that that's

496
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,320
did we do that?

497
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,240
>> Uh thank you mayor law. I don't know if

498
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:23,039
council made a formal motion but that was on staff's radar to consider in

499
00:25:23,039 --> 00:25:26,320
the 2027 financial plan process. So, as

500
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,720
part of referring these requests to

501
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,799
staff, we'll likely in our report

502
00:25:30,799 --> 00:25:32,000
indicate that.

503
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:32,799
>> Super.

504
00:25:32,799 --> 00:25:34,880
>> Great. We'll leave it. Leave it. That is

505
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,799
uh and

506
00:25:36,799 --> 00:25:41,360
just a question for the champion

507
00:25:41,360 --> 00:25:43,279
program.

508
00:25:43,279 --> 00:25:45,760
I'm not sure what uh what council can do

509
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,480
for that besides expressing our our

510
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,080
support at this time, but I can look to

511
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,559
council for

512
00:25:54,559 --> 00:25:56,799
>> Yeah. No, I was just thinking um just I

513
00:25:56,799 --> 00:25:58,960
was listening and there was a few pieces

514
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:00,400
of that puzzle and maybe it might be

515
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,520
some consultation uh with Chris uh in

516
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,679
terms of what he or maybe we've got him

517
00:26:05,679 --> 00:26:07,360
right there maybe to ask what he thought

518
00:26:07,360 --> 00:26:09,679
possibly the district support could be

519
00:26:09,679 --> 00:26:11,600
uh in that community champion. Uh I I

520
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,600
think you mentioned about some f uh some

521
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,840
type of formal recognition uh which

522
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,679
would require you probably bringing

523
00:26:17,679 --> 00:26:20,159
those names to us uh in the support uh

524
00:26:20,159 --> 00:26:21,840
that you'd be looking for. Is that

525
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,159
something that uh that would be what

526
00:26:24,159 --> 00:26:25,760
you're thinking of?

527
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,320
>> Yes. As of right now, that's that's

528
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,000
where I've gotten that's what I I think

529
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:36,390
would be very valuable.

530
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,039
» Yeah. And maybe if I may through the

531
00:26:39,039 --> 00:26:41,679
Yeah. And if when that time comes, maybe

532
00:26:41,679 --> 00:26:44,000
when uh a little formalized more, you

533
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,559
can maybe bring that back to uh back to

534
00:26:46,559 --> 00:26:48,159
council either in a committee of the

535
00:26:48,159 --> 00:26:49,919
whole to see what that might look like

536
00:26:49,919 --> 00:26:51,200
in terms of a way that we could

537
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:52,880
recognize form. It may be that we need

538
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,000
to consult with staff as to uh best uh

539
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,400
way forward for to do some find some

540
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,679
form of formal recognition.

541
00:27:01,679 --> 00:27:04,640
>> Absolutely. Thank you, councelor Steer.

542
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:05,679
Super.

543
00:27:05,679 --> 00:27:16,549
>> Thank you. You two great glad you're on.

544
00:27:16,559 --> 00:27:17,600
Okay, we're going to move on to

545
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,440
correspondence. Uh, we've got

546
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,080
correspondence from Mr. regarding

547
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,960
visitor impact B.

548
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,440
You have some comments on this, but I

549
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:32,240
maybe I'll move my comments first.

550
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,039
Open up to council for comments or

551
00:27:35,039 --> 00:27:37,440
discussion after.

552
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,279
Uh I do want to first of all note

553
00:27:41,279 --> 00:27:43,919
that Tofino like many many resort

554
00:27:43,919 --> 00:27:45,520
communities all the resort communities

555
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,960
in BC uh are dealing with pressures on

556
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,200
services and infrastructure

557
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,600
pressures on taxation

558
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,640
uh and we have you know responded over

559
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,799
the past few years

560
00:27:58,799 --> 00:28:02,480
uh with some pretty incredible

561
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,600
strides forward in in nonprofit tax

562
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,679
funding. got $400,000 from the R&D. It

563
00:28:09,679 --> 00:28:13,120
goes to our Whistler King plant.

564
00:28:13,120 --> 00:28:16,080
It's covers a large portion of that

565
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,840
debt. We have pay parking which is

566
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,880
visitor funded which goes to reserves,

567
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,360
goes to ball field and many other

568
00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:28,559
projects. Uh those total over a million

569
00:28:28,559 --> 00:28:32,000
dollars nonpropy tax funding. That is

570
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:37,039
incredible win. But we do recognize that more needs to be done and we're

571
00:28:37,039 --> 00:28:39,840
certainly putting pressure on uh on

572
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,919
provincial government and in that regard

573
00:28:43,919 --> 00:28:47,760
we are part of the resort community

574
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,120
collaborative. I sit on that. Satiana

575
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,799
also sits on that. And

576
00:28:54,799 --> 00:28:56,480
the province has established a resort

577
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,880
municipality initiative, RMI advisory

578
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,520
committee as well to bring together RMI

579
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,039
communities and key government

580
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:04,799
ministries, tourism, arts, culture,

581
00:29:04,799 --> 00:29:06,720
sport, finance and housing and musical

582
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,720
affairs to uh to really examine cost

583
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,240
pressures faced by tourism dependent

584
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,520
communities. We know that a town of 200

585
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:19,279
people uh cannot support with property

586
00:29:19,279 --> 00:29:21,679
taxation alone the infrastructure

587
00:29:21,679 --> 00:29:24,480
required to handle tens of thousands of

588
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,520
people and neither can any community

589
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,200
that has that kind of influx of

590
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,080
visitation and economy that that depends

591
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:38,240
on on such a a large increase in

592
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,000
uh these communities we support a high

593
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,480
volume of tourists rel resident relative

594
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:43,919
to to our resident population. I believe

595
00:29:43,919 --> 00:29:47,039
to this is about 300 somewhere around.

596
00:29:47,039 --> 00:29:49,520
Um and so this committee will

597
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,360
collaboratively explore options and

598
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,279
possible mechanisms to support

599
00:29:53,279 --> 00:29:55,120
sustainable tourism, regenerative

600
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,279
tourism, municipal resilience and

601
00:29:57,279 --> 00:29:59,360
community well-being uh with

602
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,039
representation from resort communities

603
00:30:01,039 --> 00:30:04,240
like Tofino, Wistler, Veil Mount. Uh

604
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,480
this init initiative marks a coordinated

605
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,360
effort to identify in innovative policy

606
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,320
solutions for BC's tourism

607
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,080
municipalities and we know the British

608
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,640
Columbia government has recently

609
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,360
released looked west and we know that

610
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:25,360
their goal is to increase tourism significantly and

611
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,840
in order to do that they will have to

612
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,039
address disparity in infrastructure and

613
00:30:31,039 --> 00:30:34,399
services costs for residents.

614
00:30:34,399 --> 00:30:37,360
Uh it's also in our strategic plan. Uh

615
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:38,720
one of our priorities is to develop

616
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,399
effective relationships to have a strong

617
00:30:40,399 --> 00:30:41,760
seat at the table with provincial and

618
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:43,039
federal governments so that we are

619
00:30:43,039 --> 00:30:44,880
better positioned to advocate for our

620
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,679
critical priority priorities. Uh this

621
00:30:47,679 --> 00:30:50,960
includes ad advocating for um funding to

622
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,559
support our community's critical needs.

623
00:30:52,559 --> 00:30:55,840
And you know again was just in Edmonton

624
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,600
uh and and was able to to meet directly

625
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,110
federal counterparts

626
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,440
And uh and so we're working very hard on

627
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,520
this front. This is not lost on any of

628
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:11,120
us. Staff, council,

629
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,039
anybody in the community knows this is a

630
00:31:13,039 --> 00:31:14,480
priority. We're working very hard to

631
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:18,720
address it. So um that's my that's my

632
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:19,840
spiel. I'm going to open it up to

633
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:26,549
council comments in response. So

634
00:31:26,559 --> 00:31:27,279
Anderson.

635
00:31:27,279 --> 00:31:30,880
>> Um yeah, just my only comment to add to

636
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,760
that. Um and and that would form I think

637
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:37,600
a good response to for Mr. Dau should we

638
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:51,519
want to write a letter. Um what whatever fees or implementation of these types of charges

639
00:31:51,519 --> 00:31:53,919
um which have been proposed

640
00:31:53,919 --> 00:31:56,320
and even contemplated by the Ministry of

641
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,480
Finance to some extent at the staff

642
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,360
level. Um,

643
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,600
of course it takes support for your

644
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,840
province because municipalities operate

645
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:10,630
under the provincial legislation

646
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:14,799
of what what our powers are. So

647
00:32:14,799 --> 00:32:19,039
anything that the province would allow

648
00:32:19,039 --> 00:32:21,120
municipalities has to work throughout

649
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,120
the province.

650
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,919
So while Tofino

651
00:32:25,919 --> 00:32:28,880
often has proposed different sources of

652
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:30,399
funding,

653
00:32:30,399 --> 00:32:34,720
uh until several municipalities

654
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,760
get together and support something, the

655
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,600
province is a bit at at

656
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,640
odds with what what exactly to

657
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,240
implement.

658
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,480
So um

659
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:55,039
thank Mr. Silverford's letter and it's not first time this this has been

660
00:32:55,039 --> 00:32:58,000
proposed and I think it would be

661
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,760
a great uh help to municipalities that

662
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,960
face the pressures of large visiation.

663
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,960
So

664
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,440
yeah that's my only comment is the

665
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,159
difficulty for the provincial land is

666
00:33:12,159 --> 00:33:14,320
finding some bits throughout the

667
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,509
province.

668
00:33:17,519 --> 00:33:20,080
Super mastered.

669
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,880
>> Yeah, I think uh this argument has been

670
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,760
going on for even before I fell on

671
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:30,320
council 15 years ago that uh as and it's

672
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,480
not just resort municipalities. People

673
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,880
want municipalities want to have more

674
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,120
control over the funds we raise. That's

675
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,159
the way where it goes. And whether it's

676
00:33:40,159 --> 00:33:42,880
MRDT or visitor

677
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,840
fees, they'd like to have a say. And uh

678
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,519
so

679
00:33:47,519 --> 00:33:50,399
and I don't see that changing. I think

680
00:33:50,399 --> 00:33:52,480
uh the BC government is trying to raise

681
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,240
every penny it can get

682
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,640
that free things up when trying to raise

683
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:03,190
money themselves.

684
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,080
» Okay. Well, I think a letter back to Mr.

685
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,480
Dau is is warranted. I think it'd be

686
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,119
good to get this out there. Uh perhaps

687
00:34:11,119 --> 00:34:12,960
um

688
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,679
we've got two options. We can have

689
00:34:15,679 --> 00:34:18,320
corporate officer respond all that

690
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:19,679
information or we can have council

691
00:34:19,679 --> 00:34:21,280
respond.

692
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:22,639
What would council like? What do you

693
00:34:22,639 --> 00:34:23,599
think?

694
00:34:23,599 --> 00:34:25,599
>> Suggestions. Councelor Anders.

695
00:34:25,599 --> 00:34:29,040
>> Well, address to council. So I for the

696
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,839
council response

697
00:34:31,839 --> 00:34:34,960
perhaps a motion to authorize the mayor

698
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:39,599
to respond to Mr. letter based on

699
00:34:39,599 --> 00:34:41,679
session.

700
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:46,159
>> Okay. Second. Second further comment.

701
00:34:46,159 --> 00:34:48,639
All in favor? None opposed? Motions

702
00:34:48,639 --> 00:34:51,359
carried. Uh Miss Washington, did you get

703
00:34:51,359 --> 00:34:55,200
that? Okay. Thank you.

704
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,880
>> Okay. Item 9.2. Uh Mic regarding draft

705
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,920
recreation parks master plan survey

706
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,720
feedback.

707
00:35:04,720 --> 00:35:09,750
It's up to council for comments.

708
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,040
Councelor Steer.

709
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:12,880
>> Yeah. Thank you through the chair. I'd

710
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,720
like to thank the uh letter writer first

711
00:35:14,720 --> 00:35:17,200
and foremost for uh their engagement in

712
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,359
the process. They have a long history of

713
00:35:19,359 --> 00:35:21,920
uh engagement in the recreation of this

714
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,599
community. Uh very much uh appreciate

715
00:35:25,599 --> 00:35:30,960
those comments and feedback. Um, in the context of of the draft uh

716
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,680
recreation master plan, there's still I

717
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,280
think there were some uh conversations

718
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,520
within the letter uh addressing some of

719
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,280
the strategic actions and specifically

720
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,599
around aquatics and the related issues

721
00:35:41,599 --> 00:35:43,839
around there that have long uh been an

722
00:35:43,839 --> 00:35:46,880
issue within our community. And uh you

723
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:48,640
know there were some uh comments

724
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:50,800
regarding the draft plan and and I think

725
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:56,640
the um the engagement process was was very wholesome and and and I think

726
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,040
some of the letter writers issues were

727
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,960
not feeling that they were heard or that

728
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,200
the the interpretation of of that

729
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,440
information uh didn't represent what the

730
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:07,200
community was saying and and that's

731
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,680
important feedback uh to have. Once

732
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,079
again, we are I in the final stages of

733
00:36:12,079 --> 00:36:14,000
that plan. And I think it would be good

734
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:18,079
um to I would also like to refer this uh

735
00:36:18,079 --> 00:36:20,240
if possible this letter to the the

736
00:36:20,240 --> 00:36:22,400
recreation advisory committee of which

737
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,200
councilman chairs to to provide feedback

738
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,280
um once again from from the advisory

739
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,520
committee on this important uh document

740
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,480
that will help guide the uh the

741
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,560
recreation and and recreation not just

742
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,200
in the in the we often think of it in

743
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,839
that strict sporting type arena but the

744
00:36:39,839 --> 00:36:42,160
much broader sense of recreation. And

745
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,880
so, um, want to once again thank the

746
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,520
letter writer for for the comments, uh,

747
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,160
there and to look to, uh, maybe having

748
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,240
the the letter referred to the

749
00:36:52,240 --> 00:36:54,720
recreation advisory committee, uh, to

750
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:57,359
have further comments from them in terms

751
00:36:57,359 --> 00:36:59,200
of the the draft plan itself and some of

752
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:00,640
the comments that have been received

753
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,990
from the public.

754
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:05,119
» Dr. else.

755
00:37:05,119 --> 00:37:07,599
>> Um,

756
00:37:07,599 --> 00:37:09,920
uh, on that note, I'm just wondering who

757
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:11,760
is getting the feedback survey. It might

758
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,079
be unnecessary to refer this to the

759
00:37:14,079 --> 00:37:16,160
recreation committee if the survey is

760
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,720
already going to through a channel for

761
00:37:18,720 --> 00:37:21,829
feedback.

762
00:37:21,839 --> 00:37:23,280
» I'll I'll look to the chair of the

763
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,359
committee. I I do know that u they have

764
00:37:25,359 --> 00:37:27,680
been able to review the the document but

765
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:31,520
um in terms of the survey results um

766
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,359
not 100% sure if that has

767
00:37:33,359 --> 00:37:34,880
>> maybe that's a question for staff about

768
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,119
where the survey results are going

769
00:37:37,119 --> 00:37:40,000
>> um

770
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,079
because if it's already being captured

771
00:37:42,079 --> 00:37:45,040
through this particular channel I don't

772
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,119
know we need to refer it individually

773
00:37:47,119 --> 00:37:49,119
outside of the rest of the survey

774
00:37:49,119 --> 00:37:49,920
>> I

775
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:54,230
Yeah.

776
00:37:54,240 --> 00:37:56,800
» Yeah. So maybe what I'll do for council,

777
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,960
I'll just have Mr. Rogers explain what

778
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,920
will happen with the feedback. The um I

779
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:03,520
think the period the period for feedback

780
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:05,839
on talk to closed on June 6th for my

781
00:38:05,839 --> 00:38:07,680
understanding and what happens from this

782
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:12,790
point forward. It might be helpful for

783
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,280
the chair. Uh so all the feedback we

784
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,320
receive will go back into updating this

785
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,560
final draft which in in front of council

786
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,280
in the coming month or or two. Um how

787
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:24,960
exactly it'll get worked in will depend

788
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,520
on subject matter or what was responded

789
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,079
to and and what we can do at this fairly

790
00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:32,480
stage but we will review it in terms of

791
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:36,240
the overall plan. Again not necessarily

792
00:38:36,240 --> 00:38:38,880
able to address one person or one one

793
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:40,800
comment but we'll take a look at it and

794
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:45,910
see what that point may be addressed.

795
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:47,520
Yeah, and maybe I'll make a comment on

796
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:49,760
aquatics because it's been close to my

797
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,760
heart for many many years, decades here

798
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:55,440
in Torino and you know I do acknowledge

799
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,079
the thick points you know we don't have

800
00:38:58,079 --> 00:38:59,920
to rule. we are an extreme outlier in

801
00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:02,800
the province in that regard. uh council

802
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,000
has taken some steps to to look into

803
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,560
that

804
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:12,720
and uh and you know we even recently uh

805
00:39:12,720 --> 00:39:17,270
discussed when we're discussing

806
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,520
school

807
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,000
uh potential potential helping out rings

808
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:29,190
at the school basketball

809
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,160
and that came upation I

810
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,000
Uh so it's not far from everybody's

811
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,839
minds. Uh the cost

812
00:39:37,839 --> 00:39:41,520
and the um the logistics of it are also

813
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,440
top of mind.

814
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,680
Um

815
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,280
but I think with some creative uh

816
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,359
creative thinking you know keeping at

817
00:39:49,359 --> 00:39:52,960
and perhaps noting the it's been ongoing

818
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,200
discussion for decades and really not

819
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,599
getting much much forward momentum.

820
00:39:57,599 --> 00:40:00,800
it might be a good idea to to broaden

821
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:06,720
our uh potential players, you know, and I just want to say because I know

822
00:40:06,720 --> 00:40:10,160
that councelor Sloan also has

823
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,400
emotion coming later on like bring up

824
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,400
regarding aquatic aquatics and training,

825
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,480
but you know, when I was in Edmonton and

826
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,520
I've been going to FCM for I believe

827
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,200
five years

828
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,000
and I was able to meet owner Western

829
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,560
Recreation, they uh they're a company

830
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,079
that built builds outdoor water

831
00:40:28,079 --> 00:40:30,560
facilities, hundreds of them across

832
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,160
Western.

833
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,760
And they do routinely come in a full uh

834
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,240
full 25 meter pool outside with beach

835
00:40:38,240 --> 00:40:41,599
entry, water slides,

836
00:40:41,599 --> 00:40:44,240
uh change rooms, bathrooms, everything

837
00:40:44,240 --> 00:40:51,280
under 2 million. And um and I think that uh you know it's potentially time

838
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:55,440
for for this conversation to to go

839
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,800
beyond the district of of Japan us not

840
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,560
the district itself but uh but but

841
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,800
council and staff and maybe there's

842
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:07,599
potential people you know potential uh

843
00:41:07,599 --> 00:41:10,480
businesses or community members that

844
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:14,160
start taking an active role this side of

845
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,440
this outside of this as well.

846
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,839
It's a big need. I'd like to see kids

847
00:41:19,839 --> 00:41:27,910
turn houseworms.

848
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,599
» I don't want to get too far into the

849
00:41:29,599 --> 00:41:31,040
debate about the merits of the poll. I

850
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:32,400
think we all agree that aquatics would

851
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,560
be important. Um we would be remiss to

852
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:36,079
have this discussion or even touch on

853
00:41:36,079 --> 00:41:37,440
the discussion without speaking about

854
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,839
our water issues and the fact that we

855
00:41:39,839 --> 00:41:41,839
are telling people you know this

856
00:41:41,839 --> 00:41:43,200
particular letter writer also went

857
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:45,440
through issues with um securing water

858
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:50,000
for um an unbuilt house and um this is

859
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,920
something that needs to be kept in mind

860
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,160
as people continue to bring this subject

861
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,000
up. It does need to be balanced with the

862
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,319
fact that we are looking at restricting

863
00:41:58,319 --> 00:41:59,920
um some housing being built. we're

864
00:41:59,920 --> 00:42:01,520
restricting the types of businesses that

865
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:05,520
can open. Um, and water is an ongoing

866
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,000
issue. So, before we get too excited

867
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,880
about an expenses pool, we need to keep

868
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,640
in mind that we are dealing with very

869
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:17,270
water restrictions.

870
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:21,440
Uh, counc was there a hand over there

871
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,760
and then counc um

872
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,400
>> yeah I'd just like to say that there's

873
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,040
actually quite a few different ideas

874
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,079
around providing

875
00:42:32,079 --> 00:42:35,359
aquatic recreation including traveling

876
00:42:35,359 --> 00:42:40,079
out of town bringing in popup pools and

877
00:42:40,079 --> 00:42:43,680
an outdoor pool an indoor pool

878
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:45,520
use facility

879
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:49,680
Um and I I think there's different

880
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,400
levels of support and different levels

881
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:56,480
of feasibility with all these ideas that

882
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,839
needs to be assessed

883
00:42:59,839 --> 00:43:02,480
sort of a large employment

884
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,520
where we could

885
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,359
I think you were inferring that maybe

886
00:43:07,359 --> 00:43:09,599
the private sector could become

887
00:43:09,599 --> 00:43:12,880
involved. Um you know that hasn't been

888
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:18,960
brought into the conversation. So it's not uncommon for groups or

889
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,359
individuals to get behind sort of one

890
00:43:21,359 --> 00:43:25,119
idea and try to go for that. We all we

891
00:43:25,119 --> 00:43:27,280
all fall in love with something. I use

892
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,160
the aquatic center in Nimo

893
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,520
very often like weekly and I really like

894
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,560
that facility but it's way out of reach

895
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:40,160
for our area. I think it's a, you know,

896
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,599
it's a 50 m pool plus a recreational

897
00:43:43,599 --> 00:43:46,240
pool and several

898
00:43:46,240 --> 00:43:48,720
um other facilities including water

899
00:43:48,720 --> 00:43:51,040
slide and everything. If any nobody's

900
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,880
seen it already. Um that would be

901
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:59,119
lovely, but they have a a population of

902
00:43:59,119 --> 00:44:01,839
100,000 people to support it.

903
00:44:01,839 --> 00:44:03,440
Um

904
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:05,839
so anyways there's all all different

905
00:44:05,839 --> 00:44:08,400
levels all different ideas and we

906
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,280
somehow have to bring it into a forum

907
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:14,319
where we can evaluate

908
00:44:14,319 --> 00:44:18,000
um the real needs and then

909
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,160
how best to deliver that and maybe over

910
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:23,040
time maybe start with

911
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,839
one program and move to another and and

912
00:44:25,839 --> 00:44:29,119
phase phase in a larger facility at some

913
00:44:29,119 --> 00:44:31,200
point in the future.

914
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,319
A lot of the

915
00:44:34,319 --> 00:44:36,079
uh

916
00:44:36,079 --> 00:44:38,079
the hopes have been pinned to the

917
00:44:38,079 --> 00:44:40,079
multi-lex

918
00:44:40,079 --> 00:44:44,560
facility with the ring and pool notion

919
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,640
and

920
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:51,119
that still exists as well as as an idea

921
00:44:51,119 --> 00:44:53,760
but it's been

922
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,880
unattainable for quite a long time. So

923
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:58,720
anyways, I don't know how we're going to

924
00:44:58,720 --> 00:45:04,000
get there, but I as as much appreciate the letter

925
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,800
writer, I can't say that any of the

926
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,800
ideas proposed

927
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:13,280
are something grab on to and run without

928
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:17,359
Morris a larger discussion.

929
00:45:17,359 --> 00:45:21,119
Mr. Ste and I'll just quickly add um I I

930
00:45:21,119 --> 00:45:23,200
think once again this is this was one

931
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,119
component of an overall recreation

932
00:45:25,119 --> 00:45:27,040
master plan which had a number of

933
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,440
actions uh and strategies and goals and

934
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:30,960
I and I know the letter writer had some

935
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:33,440
issues surrounding that but this is a

936
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:35,920
much broader uh document that will help

937
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,480
us guide our discussions uh throughout

938
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:40,960
the next decade. Uh it is a living

939
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:43,839
document as well um and one that we

940
00:45:43,839 --> 00:45:45,520
should be looking at once we see the

941
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:48,319
final draft. um uh to help us in making

942
00:45:48,319 --> 00:45:50,000
those decisions that are often centered

943
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:51,680
around budget conversations and

944
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:52,960
assessing what the needs and the

945
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,280
priorities uh within the community that

946
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,200
have been identified. So, I'll leave it

947
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,040
at that and just I'm looking forward

948
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,359
once again to that recreation uh master

949
00:46:01,359 --> 00:46:03,520
plan to help us in making these types of

950
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:06,240
important decisions.

951
00:46:06,240 --> 00:46:10,800
>> Okay. Uh move on. We do have 9 there's

952
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,839
another comment.

953
00:46:13,839 --> 00:46:15,440
>> Okay.

954
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:21,359
Uh we do have uh 9.3 edition that is

955
00:46:21,359 --> 00:46:23,760
John's

956
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,200
letter uh requesting our support

957
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:31,119
to uh to make a motion to support his

958
00:46:31,119 --> 00:46:38,390
motion. That's what it was. Now um

959
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:39,839
comments from council. Will I open

960
00:46:39,839 --> 00:46:44,710
reopen my computer?

961
00:46:44,720 --> 00:46:48,710
state.

962
00:46:48,720 --> 00:46:50,560
» Sure. Go ahead. I'm just pulling up. I

963
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,640
have Mr. Larson sent me a potential.

964
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,319
>> Did you want to go first? Nope.

965
00:46:54,319 --> 00:46:56,560
>> Um yeah, I just I I would like to

966
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,200
support

967
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:04,319
>> um or John's. Um, I I feel like fairies

968
00:47:04,319 --> 00:47:06,800
impact all of us and they're creeping up

969
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:08,640
year after year or maybe not year after

970
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:10,960
year, but over and over again they seem

971
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:13,280
to increase and I think it affects

972
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,839
almost every aspect of our day-to-day

973
00:47:15,839 --> 00:47:19,990
living.

974
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:24,720
I mean the the the the fees that uh that

975
00:47:24,720 --> 00:47:28,240
MP John's is is suggesting are coming

976
00:47:28,240 --> 00:47:32,720
that increases are are astronomical

977
00:47:32,720 --> 00:47:35,119
letter and that would impact our

978
00:47:35,119 --> 00:47:36,720
community. It would impact our economy.

979
00:47:36,720 --> 00:47:41,599
It would impact everybody coming home to the island

980
00:47:41,599 --> 00:47:43,680
impact food prices. Anything that comes

981
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,760
over by ferry. So I I think this is an

982
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,880
urgent enough

983
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:50,640
situation, urgent enough request that

984
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:58,230
I'd like.

985
00:47:58,240 --> 00:48:01,280
Yeah, just to echo councelor Sman's

986
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:03,040
comments,

987
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,520
I think that looking forward, we need to

988
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,400
recognize that the cost of travel is

989
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:12,560
going up and very even though they're

990
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,440
very expensive are still mostly the most

991
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,839
affordable option for people to get

992
00:48:17,839 --> 00:48:21,119
across and we need to protect that. And

993
00:48:21,119 --> 00:48:23,440
even though highway infrastructure

994
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,839
normally falls um under provincial

995
00:48:25,839 --> 00:48:29,760
regulation, um anytime highways pass

996
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:31,839
through federally re regulated areas,

997
00:48:31,839 --> 00:48:34,400
they fall under a federal regulation.

998
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,280
And so I think that

999
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,040
the federal government can look at our

1000
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,559
waterways as uh you know that's a little

1001
00:48:42,559 --> 00:48:45,200
bit of an overlap.

1002
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:48,470
>> Superman.

1003
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,920
Um I just also had a comment I I thought

1004
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:56,079
um you know time and time again

1005
00:48:56,079 --> 00:48:58,800
from other tourism

1006
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:02,800
um hotels and stuff I've heard that

1007
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,640
tourists coming to Tofino are finding it

1008
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,680
more and more expensive to get here and

1009
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,520
it's often becoming cheaper to fly

1010
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,400
elsewhere in the offse whereas many

1011
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:14,240
places on the island need tourists in

1012
00:49:14,240 --> 00:49:17,200
the offse and the ferry the increased

1013
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:18,079
fairy

1014
00:49:18,079 --> 00:49:21,119
prices are going to be detrimental to

1015
00:49:21,119 --> 00:49:25,359
affordability to visit our our island.

1016
00:49:25,359 --> 00:49:26,960
>> And I think Yeah. And I think just to be

1017
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,760
clear, G uh

1018
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:33,359
John's underlying

1019
00:49:33,359 --> 00:49:35,599
overarching concern is the inequity in

1020
00:49:35,599 --> 00:49:38,079
funding across the province. PEI gets

1021
00:49:38,079 --> 00:49:42,720
far far more funding in many respects.

1022
00:49:42,720 --> 00:49:45,359
This is one of them that's very

1023
00:49:45,359 --> 00:49:47,520
and I think that that that must be

1024
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:51,359
addressed. We're all Canadians

1025
00:49:51,359 --> 00:49:55,680
part of the federal government. We all contribute and this is this is our

1026
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:57,280
highway.

1027
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:58,800
It's the only way on and off

1028
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,119
realistically.

1029
00:50:01,119 --> 00:50:04,079
I do have a a a motion before us. I can

1030
00:50:04,079 --> 00:50:05,359
move from the chair that council

1031
00:50:05,359 --> 00:50:08,400
supports honorable MP Gord John's motion

1032
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,040
M35 and calls for fair, stable,

1033
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,119
long-term federal operational support

1034
00:50:13,119 --> 00:50:15,200
for BC fairies and that staff be

1035
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:16,720
directed to write a letter of support

1036
00:50:16,720 --> 00:50:18,160
urging the federal government to

1037
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,640
modernize outdated ferry funding

1038
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:23,040
arrangements.

1039
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,839
Second by counc Steer comments all in

1040
00:50:25,839 --> 00:50:30,710
favor none opposed motion.

1041
00:50:30,720 --> 00:50:32,880
Okay. Presentations and reports 10.1. We

1042
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:37,520
have a housing pilot number 135691

1043
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:40,640
Campbell Street.

1044
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:46,309
>> Good evening, Mayor and Council.

1045
00:50:46,319 --> 00:50:49,920
» And um for the housing agreement bylaw

1046
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:57,349
number 1356.

1047
00:50:57,359 --> 00:50:59,440
So this housing agreement is in relation

1048
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:03,200
to the subject property at 691 Campbell

1049
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:05,599
Street. Uh it's coming forward today for

1050
00:51:05,599 --> 00:51:08,319
redux of uh third reading given some

1051
00:51:08,319 --> 00:51:09,839
changes that were made to the agreement

1052
00:51:09,839 --> 00:51:12,319
at the last council meeting. So very

1053
00:51:12,319 --> 00:51:14,559
brief presentation just to go over the

1054
00:51:14,559 --> 00:51:17,359
um the previous clause revised clause

1055
00:51:17,359 --> 00:51:20,400
just for clarity. Um so as a summary

1056
00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:22,960
this is for that two units of affordable

1057
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,839
housing in reg.

1058
00:51:25,839 --> 00:51:29,040
So the change that was made was the

1059
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:31,839
sentence in bold. So as was brought to

1060
00:51:31,839 --> 00:51:33,680
staff's attention at last meeting that

1061
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:37,119
the province um regulates via the

1062
00:51:37,119 --> 00:51:39,680
residential tenency branch uh for the

1063
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:41,760
increases that are permitted annually

1064
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:43,680
and it wasn't clear as to whether they

1065
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,319
are in alignment with the CPI and so

1066
00:51:46,319 --> 00:51:48,880
even evaluating those numbers it wasn't

1067
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:51,280
clear and the province was actually a

1068
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,280
little bit higher. So to maintain

1069
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:57,200
alignment with the provincial um um uh

1070
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:01,040
intent, we decided to pivot from CPI

1071
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:04,559
over to the res BC residential tenency

1072
00:52:04,559 --> 00:52:06,880
branch. So now uh we're in line with the

1073
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:09,680
province. Um so this agreement

1074
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:11,520
essentially is just nearing what's

1075
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:16,079
already permitted via the act. So that

1076
00:52:16,079 --> 00:52:17,520
was the only change that was made to the

1077
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,480
agreement. But since the bylaw itself is

1078
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:22,800
um uh sorry the agreement is part of the

1079
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,200
bylaw uh we needed to bring it back for

1080
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:29,440
a rereading of third um consideration.

1081
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:32,000
So the recommendation table today is

1082
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,640
that uh the agreement the previous

1083
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:36,720
agreement or sorry the previous reading

1084
00:52:36,720 --> 00:52:40,160
be rescended and that uh the uh the

1085
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,720
housing agreement bylaw is reread for

1086
00:52:42,720 --> 00:52:45,359
third consideration as amended.

1087
00:52:45,359 --> 00:52:47,440
>> Excellent. Thank you.

1088
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:49,839
Uh let's I think we can vote on

1089
00:52:49,839 --> 00:52:51,280
conversation on this one. Would somebody

1090
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:53,599
like to

1091
00:52:53,599 --> 00:52:54,559
read?

1092
00:52:54,559 --> 00:52:56,720
>> Thank you for the chair. That third

1093
00:52:56,720 --> 00:52:58,720

>> interesting.

1107
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,040
» Go ahead, Mr. Ross. Good evening, Mayor

1108
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,160
and Council. Today, I'm going to present

1109
00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:00,160
to you for first reading uh amending the

1110
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,640
OCP to facilitate the development of a

1111
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:04,240
new multi-residential building in

1112
00:54:04,240 --> 00:54:05,760
partnership with the Tino Housing

1113
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:11,510
Corporation at the address of 740 Camp

1114
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,680
subject property just outside of our

1115
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:16,800
community's growth payment boundary. Uh

1116
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:18,960
the report before you speaks to the

1117
00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:20,800
associated OCP amendment to change the

1118
00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:25,040
land use designation for this parcel.

1119
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,839
Following this amendment if acceptable

1120
00:54:27,839 --> 00:54:29,280
would come the amending of the zoning

1121
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:33,760
bond. Uh these processes are um intended

1122
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,000
to run in a staggered concurrent way to

1123
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:38,160
expedite the process um while ensuring

1124
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,480
that the OCP amendment uh will be

1125
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:46,630
adopted first.

1126
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:50,079
The site's situated between uh our uh

1127
00:54:50,079 --> 00:54:51,760
district- owned water infrastructure to

1128
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:53,520
the north and private commercial

1129
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:55,599
structures to the south. Cross Campbell

1130
00:54:55,599 --> 00:54:58,079
Street to the west is a steep slope

1131
00:54:58,079 --> 00:55:01,760
upward um that's somewhat forested and

1132
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:03,680
there's also proposed residential

1133
00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:06,880
development quite large up there as well

1134
00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:08,960
known as Woodsmere um not yet

1135
00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:11,839
constructed but uh expansive in scope.

1136
00:55:11,839 --> 00:55:13,599
So that development would have some

1137
00:55:13,599 --> 00:55:17,440
impacts um to this downst property. On

1138
00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:20,079
site is an access drive that exists to

1139
00:55:20,079 --> 00:55:21,760
maintain and service the Bay Street

1140
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,559
compouse just to the north. Much of the

1141
00:55:24,559 --> 00:55:26,720
site um is relatively flat before

1142
00:55:26,720 --> 00:55:28,400
substantially slipping downward to the

1143
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,400
shoreline. Um and so the current

1144
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:34,640
structure as well as

1145
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:36,800
um sits in a nice per perched

1146
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:38,319
unobstructed

1147
00:55:38,319 --> 00:55:40,160
with unobstructed views across Brown and

1148
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:45,200
passage to over to Mir's Island

1149
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:47,760
with views over to Mir's Island. So to

1150
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:49,839
summarize the property in question, 740

1151
00:55:49,839 --> 00:55:52,559
Campbell is designated for residential

1152
00:55:52,559 --> 00:55:55,280
but low density acreage just outside of

1153
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,599
our containment boundary. The site's a

1154
00:55:57,599 --> 00:56:00,160
little under one acre and we're looking

1155
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:02,160
to change its land use designation from

1156
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:05,920
peninsula to future homes.

1157
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:08,799
A bit of a background uh here. This

1158
00:56:08,799 --> 00:56:10,880
amendment was initiated by staff to help

1159
00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:13,440
advance requirements associated with the

1160
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:16,640
housing accelerator fund project. Um,

1161
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,240
particularly initiative three of this

1162
00:56:18,240 --> 00:56:20,079
project outlines a plan for the district

1163
00:56:20,079 --> 00:56:23,119
to collaborate with Tino Housing Corp.

1164
00:56:23,119 --> 00:56:25,119
uh to build non-market multif family

1165
00:56:25,119 --> 00:56:29,440
housing projects on district owned land

1166
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,480
as well as to expedite that process. The

1167
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,480
goal of this initiative really is to to

1168
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,640
leverage district owned assets assets to

1169
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,160
increase the supply of below market

1170
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:42,079
housing targeted at local workforce.

1171
00:56:42,079 --> 00:56:43,760
The determination of this site arose

1172
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,000
from a collaborative and strategic

1173
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,240
review of five district land holdings.

1174
00:56:48,240 --> 00:56:52,160
And this site was chosen as number one

1175
00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:55,680
um during the committee of full meeting

1176
00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:58,480
on July 29th, 2025.

1177
00:56:58,480 --> 00:56:59,839
And then subsequently permission to

1178
00:56:59,839 --> 00:57:01,839
proceed was granted for this amendment

1179
00:57:01,839 --> 00:57:06,079
back in March on the 31st this year.

1180
00:57:06,079 --> 00:57:09,680
So here's a a schematic or a rendering

1181
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:11,760
from the schematic design architectural

1182
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:14,079
package. Currently what's being proposed

1183
00:57:14,079 --> 00:57:18,079
is a 21 unit multi-family development.

1184
00:57:18,079 --> 00:57:20,880
Um this would increase the density far

1185
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:24,720
beyond what current policy allows for.

1186
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,280
The development would respect the cliff

1187
00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,799
geometry uh and maximize views. What's

1188
00:57:30,799 --> 00:57:32,880
being proposed is a very efficient

1189
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:35,520
modular design, stacking the units,

1190
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,040
having a simple structure, there'd be no

1191
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:39,839
underground parking. Uh the development

1192
00:57:39,839 --> 00:57:41,599
um would appear as two stories from the

1193
00:57:41,599 --> 00:57:43,680
street, stepping down to three stories

1194
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:47,359
towards the rear. Uh so it's modest in

1195
00:57:47,359 --> 00:57:50,160
visual scale. And then the the flat roof

1196
00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:52,319
associated with the construction process

1197
00:57:52,319 --> 00:57:54,559
could offer potential for shared

1198
00:57:54,559 --> 00:57:57,359
residential or shared resident amenity

1199
00:57:57,359 --> 00:57:59,440
space, perhaps a green roof. all to be

1200
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,400
determined at future phases. Associated

1201
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,200
with this project also is a waterfront

1202
00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:07,920
park. So since this is district own land

1203
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:12,160
and there's a current uh slip and um

1204
00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:14,400
unused boat house, it's it's well as

1205
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:17,280
access um it was deemed as a potential

1206
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:20,240
opportunity to develop a public amenity

1207
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,119
uh greater detail. So here's a a

1208
00:58:23,119 --> 00:58:24,640
rendering from the schematic design of

1209
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,440
the waterfront park package.

1210
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:29,680
Public beach access would be retained

1211
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:33,839
the east end of the site. Um there'd be

1212
00:58:33,839 --> 00:58:35,359
a designed launch point for

1213
00:58:35,359 --> 00:58:37,760
non-motorized watercraft such as kayaks,

1214
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,960
canoes, stand up paddle boards, and this

1215
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:43,200
would support the district vision for a

1216
00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:45,520
broader connected water trail network

1217
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:47,599
particularly on the inlet side of our

1218
00:58:47,599 --> 00:58:50,160
community. This would expand community

1219
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:51,680
recreation and tourism opportunities

1220
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:55,520
within Browning Passage. Um this also

1221
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:58,240
would integrate with the housing um

1222
00:58:58,240 --> 00:58:59,599
providing an accessible waterfront

1223
00:58:59,599 --> 00:59:02,799
public amenity. Um and furthermore as

1224
00:59:02,799 --> 00:59:05,440
part of this design uh there would be

1225
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:08,960
green infrastructure considered to clean

1226
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:10,559
and mitigate storm water runoff from

1227
00:59:10,559 --> 00:59:12,079
this site as well as perhaps sites

1228
00:59:12,079 --> 00:59:17,030
above.

1229
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:18,799
So a few key considerations the next two

1230
00:59:18,799 --> 00:59:21,359
slides outline those.

1231
00:59:21,359 --> 00:59:24,880
Um the USB amendment required uh for

1232
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:28,559
this would to be to change the the

1233
00:59:28,559 --> 00:59:30,160
laneous designation from peninsula to

1234
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:31,839
future homes to enable this multi-unit

1235
00:59:31,839 --> 00:59:34,000
housing development. Uh this does

1236
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:36,880
advance council housing objectives.

1237
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:38,400
Um however it's outside the village

1238
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,280
containment area and so we require this

1239
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:44,079
would require specific policy change to

1240
00:59:44,079 --> 00:59:46,079
uh to change their our conservative

1241
00:59:46,079 --> 00:59:51,280
growth targets from the OCP.

1242
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:54,079
This supports uh this project would

1243
00:59:54,079 --> 00:59:58,240
support compact growth using existing

1244
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:00,240
uh or redevelop land that has existing

1245
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:02,720
servicing. There's strong alignment with

1246
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:05,200
our active transportation plan uh due to

1247
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:07,359
its its access to transit as well as the

1248
01:00:07,359 --> 01:00:09,680
multi-use path. Uh infrastructure

1249
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:11,920
capacity uh is a constraint particularly

1250
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:14,799
around availability of water um that

1251
01:00:14,799 --> 01:00:16,240
would need to be resolved prior

1252
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:18,640
occupancy. And then there could be some

1253
01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:20,960
perceived sensitivity around scale and

1254
01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:22,559
character

1255
01:00:22,559 --> 01:00:25,359
from this development as it does exceed

1256
01:00:25,359 --> 01:00:28,000
typical candle street development.

1257
01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:30,960
To summarize, there are challenges but

1258
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,520
staff do believe that the application

1259
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:35,839
does address each and achieves some key

1260
01:00:35,839 --> 01:00:38,960
benefits. Uh here this slide essentially

1261
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:41,280
illustrates that tension uh displayed by

1262
01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:43,040
a few notable elements. So it's

1263
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:44,720
currently not within the growth area,

1264
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:46,960
sits right outside of that. It does

1265
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:49,520
address an urgent housing need. Um there

1266
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:50,960
are known water and servicing

1267
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,760
constraints. However, it is efficient

1268
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,079
use of district own land. There's

1269
01:00:56,079 --> 01:00:57,760
potential building character and

1270
01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:01,040
environmental hazard considerations. Um

1271
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:03,440
but it does also uh provide strong

1272
01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:05,359
location

1273
01:01:05,359 --> 01:01:09,599
for mobility and public amenity.

1274
01:01:09,599 --> 01:01:12,880
to get to the uh efforts associated with

1275
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:14,319
community engagement. The referral

1276
01:01:14,319 --> 01:01:16,720
process has already been initiated.

1277
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:20,000
We've reached out uh to both the the

1278
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:21,920
nation, our regional district, school

1279
01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:23,839
district 70, as well as the Ministry of

1280
01:01:23,839 --> 01:01:25,920
Trans Transportation.

1281
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:27,680
Um there would be a public hearing

1282
01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:30,880
scheduled for this. We're looking at

1283
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:33,520
regular meeting in August.

1284
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:35,520
Um and then public notices would go out

1285
01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:38,400
according to community charter our

1286
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:40,880
bylaws as well as

1287
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:42,319
>> associated with this because it is an

1288
01:01:42,319 --> 01:01:44,160
OCP amendment there are several

1289
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:46,079
recommendations

1290
01:01:46,079 --> 01:01:50,079
I'm not going to read there.

1291
01:01:50,079 --> 01:01:55,109
>> Excellent. Thank you very much Mr.

1292
01:01:55,119 --> 01:01:57,520
I I'd like to say I think it's an

1293
01:01:57,520 --> 01:01:59,200
excellent project and I fully support it

1294
01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,760
and uh from there I will just go to

1295
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,000
council master

1296
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,880
it's a great project uh provide some

1297
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:09,440
will provide some much needed housing

1298
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:11,520
and I think it's really good that we're

1299
01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:16,400
providing park for the residents of Tina

1300
01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:23,270
better water access.

1301
01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:24,799
» Yeah, definitely a thumbs up. And and I

1302
01:02:24,799 --> 01:02:25,920
just, you know, in the comment around

1303
01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:27,760
the designation of the future homes and

1304
01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:30,400
just literally being outside of that and

1305
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,480
you know, we draw I will say arbitrary

1306
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:34,559
lines for these types of land use

1307
01:02:34,559 --> 01:02:36,799
designations and uh you know this is so

1308
01:02:36,799 --> 01:02:39,680
close. I mean so in terms of the uh the

1309
01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:41,359
fitting I I think it's an excellent fit

1310
01:02:41,359 --> 01:02:43,359
and as councilors have have reiterated

1311
01:02:43,359 --> 01:02:46,799
this is an excellent project.

1312
01:02:46,799 --> 01:02:47,839
And

1313
01:02:47,839 --> 01:02:51,359
>> um aside from being an excellent project

1314
01:02:51,359 --> 01:02:54,400
in meeting some of our goals in terms of

1315
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:59,040
housing and affordable housing, um I

1316
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:02,319
think it's a good fit

1317
01:03:02,319 --> 01:03:05,119
on on the neighborhood imprint as well.

1318
01:03:05,119 --> 01:03:08,960
It's buffered by a park land one side

1319
01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,359
and some room

1320
01:03:11,359 --> 01:03:15,119
to mitigate impacts on that side of the

1321
01:03:15,119 --> 01:03:16,400
neighborhood.

1322
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:19,039
and it's situated

1323
01:03:19,039 --> 01:03:21,359
um on the other side among some fairly

1324
01:03:21,359 --> 01:03:26,799
dense commercial units. So, um if if any

1325
01:03:26,799 --> 01:03:30,480
of the inlet properties were to be

1326
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:32,559
chosen for this designation, I think

1327
01:03:32,559 --> 01:03:35,839
this is a good fit that way as well. So,

1328
01:03:35,839 --> 01:03:40,319
I'm in support of of uh taking it to

1329
01:03:40,319 --> 01:03:43,520
first reading.

1330
01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:44,799
>> Sure.

1331
01:03:44,799 --> 01:03:49,359
Um, no comments beyond what Sorin said.

1332
01:03:49,359 --> 01:03:51,760
I agree with everyone.

1333
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:56,000
I have a little comment uh just on

1334
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:57,520
you know we often talk about we make

1335
01:03:57,520 --> 01:03:59,599
policies we make bylaws and they're to

1336
01:03:59,599 --> 01:04:01,119
govern and they're very very carefully

1337
01:04:01,119 --> 01:04:05,599
drafted and they take into account many different opinions and different

1338
01:04:05,599 --> 01:04:08,640
aspects from infrastructure to land use

1339
01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:11,280
and I want to say that we have some very

1340
01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:14,000
difficult complex problems

1341
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:16,880
and sometimes that requires very

1342
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,520
creative thinking

1343
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:21,760
seizing opportunities

1344
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:23,760
that may not come again. And I would

1345
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:27,200
just like to say that this this uh this

1346
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:30,000
proposal, this project

1347
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:32,960
exemplifies all of that creative problem

1348
01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:34,480
solving.

1349
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:36,240
Uh you know, this land was purchased

1350
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:39,039
with a growing communities fund.

1351
01:04:39,039 --> 01:04:40,799
It's being spearheaded by the housing

1352
01:04:40,799 --> 01:04:43,680
corporation

1353
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:47,119
finding potential funding for levels of

1354
01:04:47,119 --> 01:04:51,039
government as well as our own OAP

1355
01:04:51,039 --> 01:04:54,160
uh income from from emergency

1356
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:56,319
short-term. So I I just you know and

1357
01:04:56,319 --> 01:04:58,559
then the part thrown on access to our

1358
01:04:58,559 --> 01:05:01,200
infrastructure uh that we don't have to

1359
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:03,440
if we follow this then we do not have to

1360
01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:05,839
necessarily uh

1361
01:05:05,839 --> 01:05:08,559
dismantle our own property that had to

1362
01:05:08,559 --> 01:05:10,559
do to get access to it. So I just think

1363
01:05:10,559 --> 01:05:12,640
this is a really wonderful example of

1364
01:05:12,640 --> 01:05:14,880
how to break all the rules in a really

1365
01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:16,799
great way.

1366
01:05:16,799 --> 01:05:20,789
That's my final opinion.

1367
01:05:20,799 --> 01:05:22,559
Seeing no objection, would somebody like

1368
01:05:22,559 --> 01:05:26,079
to uh read the recommendations? And I

1369
01:05:26,079 --> 01:05:28,160
think there's going to be Who's got the

1370
01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:28,880
recommendations?

1371
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:29,920
>> It's just one big one.

1372
01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:30,640
>> One big one.

1373
01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:31,520
>> Yeah.

1374
01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:33,280
>> And

1375
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:36,000
I'll do it. I move that District of Tino

1376
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:37,760
official community plan amendment by

1377
01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:39,920
number 1290.

1378
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:42,079
3, 2026 be introduced in read a first

1379
01:05:42,079 --> 01:05:44,240
time and that council in accordance with

1380
01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:45,839
the local government act has considered

1381
01:05:45,839 --> 01:05:47,440
the opportunities for consultation with

1382
01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:49,280
persons, organizations and authorities

1383
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:51,200
it considers will be affected by the

1384
01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:53,920
proposed official community bylaw

1385
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:56,640
including the first nation clay pot

1386
01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,680
regional district number 70 the ministry

1387
01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:01,680
of transportation and transit

1388
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:03,599
consultation undertaken to the

1389
01:06:03,599 --> 01:06:05,680
appropriate at this stage and that

1390
01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:06,880
council has considered whether

1391
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:08,720
consultation should be early and ongoing

1392
01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:10,559
and will consultation opportunities

1393
01:06:10,559 --> 01:06:12,079
through the return process and public

1394
01:06:12,079 --> 01:06:14,319
hearing and that council direct staff to

1395
01:06:14,319 --> 01:06:15,760
schedule a public hearing for the bylaw

1396
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:18,480
and local government.

1397
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:20,000
>> Second by council master. Any further

1398
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,640
comments? All in favor on opposed

1399
01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:24,400
motions. Can we just take a second?

1400
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:28,079
We're going to take a a

1401
01:06:28,079 --> 01:06:29,680
couple minute recess and bring councelor

1402
01:06:29,680 --> 01:09:07,910
SW back.

1403
01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:12,550
That is reconvened.

1404
01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:16,719
10.3 waste and wastewater maintenance

1405
01:09:16,719 --> 01:09:20,070
policies.

1406
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:22,319
» Thanks. Uh hello Mayor Council. staff

1407
01:09:22,319 --> 01:09:25,679
are pleased to present the water and

1408
01:09:25,679 --> 01:09:27,279
wastewater maintenance and inspection

1409
01:09:27,279 --> 01:09:30,400
policy for consideration for council's

1410
01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:35,669
conclusion.

1411
01:09:35,679 --> 01:09:36,799
Starting off with a little bit of

1412
01:09:36,799 --> 01:09:39,920
background information

1413
01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:42,400
as part of aspen management program

1414
01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:44,719
staff continually review existing

1415
01:09:44,719 --> 01:09:47,679
policies for maximum levels of service.

1416
01:09:47,679 --> 01:09:49,839
Uh this identified a policy gap related

1417
01:09:49,839 --> 01:09:53,120
to water and wastewater.

1418
01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:54,800
Uh following that staff requested

1419
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:57,440
authorization at the January 27th

1420
01:09:57,440 --> 01:10:00,080
community goal meeting to develop

1421
01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:02,960
policy. Staff then held a internal

1422
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:05,360
workshop with utility operators uh to go

1423
01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:08,400
over historical practices legislation

1424
01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:12,709
requirements.

1425
01:10:12,719 --> 01:10:15,440
Valuable knowledge should say that. Um

1426
01:10:15,440 --> 01:10:18,080
and then the draft policy was completed

1427
01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:26,390
uh at towards the end of May.

1428
01:10:26,400 --> 01:10:30,159
Like to emphasize that while we didn't

1429
01:10:30,159 --> 01:10:32,480
have a policy at the time uh that didn't

1430
01:10:32,480 --> 01:10:33,920
stop us from implementing asset

1431
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:35,760
management software. So this slide is

1432
01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:37,520
just a representation of orders that

1433
01:10:37,520 --> 01:10:39,840
were completed throughout 2025 by the

1434
01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:42,159
utility operations team. you will see a

1435
01:10:42,159 --> 01:10:44,159
heavy focus on wastewater treatment

1436
01:10:44,159 --> 01:10:45,760
processes. That's because we had this

1437
01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:48,400
nice booklet of fresh on manuals that we

1438
01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:51,120
could implement schedules into. Uh so

1439
01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:53,440
one of the the key points on this that I

1440
01:10:53,440 --> 01:10:55,040
wanted to put this slide in there is

1441
01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:57,440
because asy goes through and we start to

1442
01:10:57,440 --> 01:10:59,840
build up more maintenance and inspection

1443
01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:03,440
tasks for other um water water items and

1444
01:11:03,440 --> 01:11:05,199
disciplines, we'll start to see that

1445
01:11:05,199 --> 01:11:12,229
ratch the format shift a little bit.

1446
01:11:12,239 --> 01:11:15,360
So a uh quick overview of the policy

1447
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:18,960
format. Uh the policy outlines the the

1448
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:21,199
purpose uh and the scope of assets that

1449
01:11:21,199 --> 01:11:24,159
it covers. Uh it the policy itself the

1450
01:11:24,159 --> 01:11:26,000
policy section itself is split into

1451
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,239
sections the general section and then

1452
01:11:28,239 --> 01:11:31,120
four sections based on the environmental

1453
01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:32,480
wrong environmental operating

1454
01:11:32,480 --> 01:11:35,199
certification program or EOCP. um but

1455
01:11:35,199 --> 01:11:38,640
just so um different avenues that

1456
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:40,880
utility operators focus on and and learn

1457
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:42,480
about how those process commitments

1458
01:11:42,480 --> 01:11:44,480
working. So that's the way it's

1459
01:11:44,480 --> 01:11:46,880
structured. Each one of the four

1460
01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:49,360
sections in the OCP is further broken

1461
01:11:49,360 --> 01:11:51,440
down into maintenance tasks versus

1462
01:11:51,440 --> 01:11:55,280
inspection items and that'll support as

1463
01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:58,320
we progress into putting those kind of

1464
01:11:58,320 --> 01:11:59,840
levels of service into our asset

1465
01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:03,990
management.

1466
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,640
So uh general the general section of the

1467
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,840
policy uh this covers uh general safety

1468
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:11,760
items. Uh it does set out a

1469
01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:13,920
prioritization structure for the

1470
01:12:13,920 --> 01:12:16,560
different disciplines.

1471
01:12:16,560 --> 01:12:18,239
Outlines operator certification

1472
01:12:18,239 --> 01:12:19,920
requirements,

1473
01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:22,159
general utility facility inspections. It

1474
01:12:22,159 --> 01:12:24,719
also covers uh the emergency generators

1475
01:12:24,719 --> 01:12:26,400
that cover a broad spectrum of

1476
01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:29,040
infrastructure uh and some continuous

1477
01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:33,910
monitoring.

1478
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:37,760
sections 4.2 to 4.5 of the policy, uh,

1479
01:12:37,760 --> 01:12:39,280
these outline those four different

1480
01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:42,719
disciplines based on the EOCP.

1481
01:12:42,719 --> 01:12:44,320
I'm going to just present a couple

1482
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:47,280
highlights from those four sections. Uh

1483
01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:50,080
so for water treatment uh these include

1484
01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:51,920
treatment plant equipment, deep cleans

1485
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:54,800
and process equipment, water quality

1486
01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:57,679
samples, valve exercising to make sure

1487
01:12:57,679 --> 01:12:59,920
that valves are functioning properly.

1488
01:12:59,920 --> 01:13:02,159
For the wastewater treatment side, uh

1489
01:13:02,159 --> 01:13:04,159
this includes gas sensor calibrations,

1490
01:13:04,159 --> 01:13:05,840
leak and corrosion inspections because

1491
01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:08,320
there's present H2S gases that can

1492
01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:10,480
equipment faster than other facilities.

1493
01:13:10,480 --> 01:13:12,159
Uh and then general tank cleansings,

1494
01:13:12,159 --> 01:13:14,239
whether it be they enclosed or open tank

1495
01:13:14,239 --> 01:13:17,840
systems. uh for the water distribution.

1496
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:20,159
Uh these include dam inspections, fire

1497
01:13:20,159 --> 01:13:22,000
hydrant servicing, submarine pipeline

1498
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:23,920
inspections, same thing valve

1499
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:26,000
maintenance. There's a some crossover.

1500
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:30,880
Uh and that section also outlines leak response timelines based on levels

1501
01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:33,679
of water water criticality that were out

1502
01:13:33,679 --> 01:13:35,600
of that stage.

1503
01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:37,920
Uh last but not least, uh wastewater

1504
01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:41,040
collection. Uh this section covers

1505
01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:43,120
gravity main flushing um to make sure

1506
01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:45,040
the conveyance works, lift the station

1507
01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:48,000
cleaning maintenance and uh some inflow

1508
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:51,199
and infiltration uh study requirements

1509
01:13:51,199 --> 01:13:52,719
to ensure that our wastewater treatment

1510
01:13:52,719 --> 01:13:55,520
plant is functioning at optimal design

1511
01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:57,040
levels.

1512
01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:59,120
Uh I do want to just take a minute to

1513
01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:02,080
note uh on the priority levels. While

1514
01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:06,159
each discipline is prioritized based on

1515
01:14:06,159 --> 01:14:08,000
uh based on risk and and service

1516
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:10,320
delivery, the work orders themselves

1517
01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:11,920
that are included in each different

1518
01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:15,280
discipline have their own um

1519
01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:18,320
criticality. So you could have on the

1520
01:14:18,320 --> 01:14:20,000
water distribution side, which in here

1521
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:21,920
indicates that it's a priority four, you

1522
01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:23,520
could have a high ranking item in in a

1523
01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:24,800
work order that the crews are actually

1524
01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:26,560
going to receive to go and implement and

1525
01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:28,880
that will be done faster than a lower

1526
01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:31,760
priority item on tree. So when we looked

1527
01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:34,159
at those items, we looked at things that

1528
01:14:34,159 --> 01:14:36,400
provided life life safety items

1529
01:14:36,400 --> 01:14:38,719
depending on which one they were in. Um

1530
01:14:38,719 --> 01:14:40,320
things that were going to potentially

1531
01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:43,760
impact service lives in terms of uh

1532
01:14:43,760 --> 01:14:44,960
maintenance requirements that we're

1533
01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:47,120
going to make sure that assets performed

1534
01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:50,400
uh among among other things. So

1535
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:52,640
there is a lot of work in the back end

1536
01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:53,760
to make sure that things aren't going to

1537
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:55,679
miss. So don't I just wanted to to point

1538
01:14:55,679 --> 01:14:57,920
that way.

1539
01:14:57,920 --> 01:15:05,679
So some next steps um if council should approve the policy um the final

1540
01:15:05,679 --> 01:15:07,600
policy will will be distributed to the

1541
01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:09,600
utility operators uh and posted and

1542
01:15:09,600 --> 01:15:12,560
we'll talk on on what that looks like.

1543
01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:15,600
Um we'll also begin to just update and

1544
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:19,199
review what gaps we have in our standard

1545
01:15:19,199 --> 01:15:21,040
operating procedures. Um if there's

1546
01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:22,640
things that need to be up updated or

1547
01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:24,960
referenced um that are critically like

1548
01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:26,480
there's some money missing for some high

1549
01:15:26,480 --> 01:15:29,120
priority and develop those internally.

1550
01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:33,600
Um and all of these items um and policy

1551
01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:35,679
will help us support future asset

1552
01:15:35,679 --> 01:15:37,600
management plans be presented to

1553
01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:40,560
council.

1554
01:15:40,560 --> 01:15:43,360
With that staff are available for any

1555
01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:46,800
questions council may have.

1556
01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:48,960
>> Excellent.

1557
01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,440
uh open up to council for questions,

1558
01:15:51,440 --> 01:15:55,760
clarity, comments

1559
01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:56,080
here.

1560
01:15:56,080 --> 01:15:58,480
>> Yeah, just a quick comment. Uh my my day

1561
01:15:58,480 --> 01:16:00,960
job where we have binders and binders of

1562
01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:03,440
maintenance uh and inspection and then

1563
01:16:03,440 --> 01:16:06,239
of course SOPs uh beyond belief. I

1564
01:16:06,239 --> 01:16:07,840
really wanted to thank staff for I know

1565
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:09,280
how much work goes into creating a

1566
01:16:09,280 --> 01:16:10,800
document like this and and the

1567
01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:12,560
importance and the prioritization that

1568
01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:14,000
you have put forward especially around

1569
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:16,239
our water uh distribution and our water

1570
01:16:16,239 --> 01:16:17,920
treatment facilities. Uh it's a

1571
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:19,679
wonderful document. Uh and I think it'll

1572
01:16:19,679 --> 01:16:21,360
be great for staff to have this and the

1573
01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:22,800
continuity because people come and

1574
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:24,800
people go. So this the ability for that

1575
01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:26,400
continuity to have it in writing is

1576
01:16:26,400 --> 01:16:28,000
going to be critical. We really

1577
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:31,990
appreciate it.

1578
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:34,159
» Councilor like to offer to read this.

1579
01:16:34,159 --> 01:16:37,120
>> I I can do that for the chair. Uh, I

1580
01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:38,880
move that the District of Tina water and

1581
01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:40,960
wastewater maintenance and inspection

1582
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:42,719
policy attaches appendix one to the

1583
01:16:42,719 --> 01:16:44,640
staff report titled water and wastewater

1584
01:16:44,640 --> 01:16:46,400
maintenance and inspection policy dated

1585
01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:50,080
June 16th 2026 be approved.

1586
01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:55,350
>> Second by Mr. Thomas. All in favor

1587
01:16:55,360 --> 01:17:10,550
10.4 we have zoning amendments.

1588
01:17:10,560 --> 01:17:13,360
Um for this presentation I will be

1589
01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:15,600
giving you a brief overview of the zone

1590
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:20,080
amendment bylaw number oh sorry

1591
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:21,600
I'm going to be presenting the

1592
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:23,920
permission to proceed for 825 camel

1593
01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:27,520
street and that is for phase two of the

1594
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:30,000
woods mirror development just as a

1595
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:31,360
refresher the subject property that

1596
01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:34,080
we're uh speaking two is highlighted in

1597
01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:37,120
blue. So this familiar from phase one is

1598
01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:40,239
council did um approve the adoption of

1599
01:17:40,239 --> 01:17:46,000
zoning zoning amendment bylaw 1315 back.

1600
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:48,000
So that would have resulted in the

1601
01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:50,080
existing zoning as you see in the

1602
01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:54,000
graphic here. 1315 uh was was referred

1603
01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:57,679
to as the um uh Campbell Street uh

1604
01:17:57,679 --> 01:18:00,640
neighborhood development. And so in the

1605
01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:03,520
red parcels, uh those those lots are now

1606
01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:05,199
well the whole lot in its entirety is

1607
01:18:05,199 --> 01:18:07,199
considered a split zone between A2 and

1608
01:18:07,199 --> 01:18:10,800
that CSM zoning. The proposal is going

1609
01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:13,120
to include the land that is situated in

1610
01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:15,920
between those two areas.

1611
01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:18,239
So, a little bit of background. As the

1612
01:18:18,239 --> 01:18:20,640
uh the applicants received their zoning

1613
01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:23,840
approval for those first two parcels, uh

1614
01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:25,920
they submitted a subdivision application

1615
01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:28,159
and through that exercise um and

1616
01:18:28,159 --> 01:18:29,760
discussions with staff, it was

1617
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:31,040
determined that it would be more

1618
01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:34,880
efficient um in terms of um uh roadway

1619
01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:38,320
construction and uh uh some of the works

1620
01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:40,320
that were required to accommodate the

1621
01:18:40,320 --> 01:18:42,000
first two phases that it would be more

1622
01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:45,600
efficient to um move forward with what

1623
01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:48,080
would have been phase do uh or is a

1624
01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:49,760
portion of what would have been phase

1625
01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:53,040
two of the development. So uh this is

1626
01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:55,600
going to include a uh park plan

1627
01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:57,440
dedication as well as the road

1628
01:18:57,440 --> 01:18:59,120
dedication through that subdivision

1629
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:01,520
application should council

1630
01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:04,800
second phase of zoning.

1631
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:08,159
Some highlights from the uh the overview

1632
01:19:08,159 --> 01:19:12,640
of the evaluation of the proposal. Um

1633
01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:15,520
the new piece is going to include a uh

1634
01:19:15,520 --> 01:19:17,679
an apartment building complex uh that

1635
01:19:17,679 --> 01:19:20,560
would add about 71 units of housing to

1636
01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:23,199
the market. This would be uh protected

1637
01:19:23,199 --> 01:19:25,600
under the rental tenure restrictions as

1638
01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:28,239
well. Uh and the applicant has uh

1639
01:19:28,239 --> 01:19:29,679
expressed a willingness to enter into

1640
01:19:29,679 --> 01:19:31,360
some affordability discussions although

1641
01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:34,000
those discussions are still early days.

1642
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:36,000
Uh this would be utilizing this

1643
01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:38,640
previously disturbed site. So there is

1644
01:19:38,640 --> 01:19:40,480
uh still some environmental uh

1645
01:19:40,480 --> 01:19:43,120
considerations however not to the extent

1646
01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:45,920
that um uh properties with full full

1647
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:47,760
trees that hasn't been previously logged

1648
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:50,880
may result in and it is within the

1649
01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:53,280
preferred growth area. So the hazard

1650
01:19:53,280 --> 01:19:55,600
zones map zap hazard zones as well as

1651
01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:57,760
within the village containment area and

1652
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:01,199
future home designation.

1653
01:20:01,199 --> 01:20:03,280
There's a a significant amount of work

1654
01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:06,640
still uh to do um for sort of moving

1655
01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:08,640
ahead. Should council approve permission

1656
01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:10,480
to proceed, we would be predominantly

1657
01:20:10,480 --> 01:20:13,840
looking at the water uh limitations. The

1658
01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:16,159
uh previous application did receive

1659
01:20:16,159 --> 01:20:18,480
water allocation uh water allocation

1660
01:20:18,480 --> 01:20:20,480
certificate. So the applicants would be

1661
01:20:20,480 --> 01:20:23,120
looking at uh potentially incorporating

1662
01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:25,040
some water conservation measures into

1663
01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:27,679
those pre-approved developments in order

1664
01:20:27,679 --> 01:20:30,080
to bring the water usage down. um and

1665
01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:31,440
also incorporating some water

1666
01:20:31,440 --> 01:20:33,360
conservation into the new development as

1667
01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:35,440
well. So there will be some further

1668
01:20:35,440 --> 01:20:37,840
detailed assessment uh required for

1669
01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:41,120
reporting to determine what the

1670
01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:44,880
infrastructure uh capacity and demand

1671
01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:47,360
the uh community amenity contribution

1672
01:20:47,360 --> 01:20:50,000
conversation needs to happen as well. So

1673
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:51,760
uh as mentioned we will be exploring

1674
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:53,679
affordability uh an affordability

1675
01:20:53,679 --> 01:20:57,280
component to this proposal or other um

1676
01:20:57,280 --> 01:21:00,640
to be determined. Uh there was a traffic

1677
01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:02,480
impact assessment that was completed for

1678
01:21:02,480 --> 01:21:04,800
the first phase and given the high

1679
01:21:04,800 --> 01:21:07,920
volume of of um new units. We would want

1680
01:21:07,920 --> 01:21:10,159
to see a new traffic impact assessment

1681
01:21:10,159 --> 01:21:11,840
with that road development that would

1682
01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:14,480
move from the um the proposed access up

1683
01:21:14,480 --> 01:21:18,640
to the uh north um to Ellers Road. uh

1684
01:21:18,640 --> 01:21:22,159
would loop that neighborhood and

1685
01:21:22,159 --> 01:21:24,080
potentially create a little bit more of

1686
01:21:24,080 --> 01:21:26,000
a dynamic when it comes to traffic

1687
01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:27,679
ingress and egress. So, we want to have

1688
01:21:27,679 --> 01:21:30,960
that fully worked out as well as uh the

1689
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:33,120
potential for safe crossings at either

1690
01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:35,440
the Ellers's location or south where

1691
01:21:35,440 --> 01:21:37,679
we're in negotiations for a transit

1692
01:21:37,679 --> 01:21:42,400
stop. There is uh the new subdivision

1693
01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:44,719
plan. Um there was a site plan that was

1694
01:21:44,719 --> 01:21:45,920
incorporated into the initial

1695
01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:48,400
development agreement. So any sort of um

1696
01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:50,320
change to that site plan would need to

1697
01:21:50,320 --> 01:21:53,520
be formalized uh that would then inform

1698
01:21:53,520 --> 01:21:58,400
the subdivision um as well there as as

1699
01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:00,320
noted the existing development agreement

1700
01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:02,719
would need to be modified to accommodate

1701
01:22:02,719 --> 01:22:05,120
the road construction uh what we're

1702
01:22:05,120 --> 01:22:07,120
referring to as road B as well as the

1703
01:22:07,120 --> 01:22:08,960
parkland configuration has changed

1704
01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:11,600
slightly and that was uh the result of

1705
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:14,800
just responding to um more detailed site

1706
01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:16,800
analysis and some of the

1707
01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:19,120
topographical constraints that were on

1708
01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:24,480
the lot. And so it's moved sort of um

1709
01:22:24,480 --> 01:22:27,040
more of a along the line of the road as

1710
01:22:27,040 --> 01:22:30,400
opposed to horizontal. And so it's

1711
01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:32,800
maintained the size and scale, but it's

1712
01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:34,800
just changed configuration.

1713
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:38,159
And then the uh uh proposal would meet

1714
01:22:38,159 --> 01:22:40,400
the prohibition requirements through the

1715
01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:43,040
LGA uh local government act for um

1716
01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:45,199
public hearing. So notice public hearing

1717
01:22:45,199 --> 01:22:46,480
waiver would need to be distributed

1718
01:22:46,480 --> 01:22:51,910
prior to any advancement of the plan.

1719
01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:55,920
» With that um the recommendation is u to

1720
01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:58,080
consider permission proceed for further

1721
01:22:58,080 --> 01:23:00,800
exploration of this.

1722
01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:03,199
>> Super.

1723
01:23:03,199 --> 01:23:04,960
>> I do have a couple questions. It's kind

1724
01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:09,520
of technical. Uh subdivision. So um why

1725
01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:11,760
is the just

1726
01:23:11,760 --> 01:23:14,000
what's the purpose of subdividing the

1727
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:16,080
property rather than just applying to

1728
01:23:16,080 --> 01:23:19,760
build the the building proposed building

1729
01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:21,600
on the existing within the existing

1730
01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:23,679
zoning? I just

1731
01:23:23,679 --> 01:23:24,400
s

1732
01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:27,199
>> thank you for the question. Um so there

1733
01:23:27,199 --> 01:23:29,679
is the initial subdivision of the 24p

1734
01:23:29,679 --> 01:23:31,600
simple lots. So those are all going to

1735
01:23:31,600 --> 01:23:33,440
need to be subdivided in order to to

1736
01:23:33,440 --> 01:23:37,120
sell them. um the the complexities with

1737
01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:38,960
some of our bylaws and policies around

1738
01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:41,040
servicing. So limiting the number of

1739
01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:43,360
service connections per lot. Um when you

1740
01:23:43,360 --> 01:23:44,880
have a comprehensive development like

1741
01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:46,880
this, it makes the most sense to

1742
01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:49,040
subdivide the parcel to isolate that

1743
01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:51,040
parcel and make sure the servicing is in

1744
01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:54,320
alignment with wildfire regulations. It

1745
01:23:54,320 --> 01:23:58,800
also um it provides an avenue for road

1746
01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:00,800
dedication as well as parkland

1747
01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:03,520
dedication. So um in a lot of those

1748
01:24:03,520 --> 01:24:06,000
conversations and negotiations for um

1749
01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:08,480
these types of amenities um that is the

1750
01:24:08,480 --> 01:24:10,719
mechanism in which we secure them. So

1751
01:24:10,719 --> 01:24:12,239
there's a there's a number of of

1752
01:24:12,239 --> 01:24:16,239
reasons. We generally don't uh prefer to

1753
01:24:16,239 --> 01:24:18,400
see split zoning in the district. does

1754
01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:21,360
create some challenges around uh zoning

1755
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:24,800
or sorry land use regulation uh in the

1756
01:24:24,800 --> 01:24:26,880
sense that if you have a a lot

1757
01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,840
specification that dictates lot lines or

1758
01:24:29,840 --> 01:24:32,960
start sorry sideyard setbacks rear

1759
01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:35,520
setbacks without those parcel lines

1760
01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:39,360
those boundaries um are difficult to to

1761
01:24:39,360 --> 01:24:42,470
enforce

1762
01:24:42,480 --> 01:24:47,440
» and um follow um in this if this was to

1763
01:24:47,440 --> 01:24:49,440
go through. It's within this particular

1764
01:24:49,440 --> 01:24:55,120
subdivision that the district would finally or get that parkland uh

1765
01:24:55,120 --> 01:24:57,679
dedication that was was proposed in

1766
01:24:57,679 --> 01:24:58,719
phase one.

1767
01:24:58,719 --> 01:25:01,040
>> Uh that's correct. So this was initially

1768
01:25:01,040 --> 01:25:03,199
proposed as a multi-phase development

1769
01:25:03,199 --> 01:25:06,960
and so a lot of the um in the current

1770
01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:08,880
development agreement there was a

1771
01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:10,560
commitment to dedicate a certain amount

1772
01:25:10,560 --> 01:25:13,040
of parkland and then sub the subsequent

1773
01:25:13,040 --> 01:25:15,360
subdivision would have resulted in an

1774
01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:18,880
additional parkland piece. So, uh, what

1775
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:20,480
the applicant is doing is essentially

1776
01:25:20,480 --> 01:25:23,520
bundling those two phases together is,

1777
01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,080
um, uh, wanting to proceed with a single

1778
01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:27,760
subdivision application that includes

1779
01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:30,320
the two lots for each apartment building

1780
01:25:30,320 --> 01:25:32,800
with the fee symbol. And so, we would

1781
01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:34,880
want to ensure that the road dedication

1782
01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:37,440
and the parkland in a whole as it's

1783
01:25:37,440 --> 01:25:40,639
presented um, would be dedicated at that

1784
01:25:40,639 --> 01:25:43,679
time. Uh what we would be uh looking to

1785
01:25:43,679 --> 01:25:47,280
do as well is to um go into an agreement

1786
01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:48,880
because essentially that is that

1787
01:25:48,880 --> 01:25:51,679
parkland represents the 5% parkland

1788
01:25:51,679 --> 01:25:55,600
dedication um and that 5% is of the lot

1789
01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,159
in its entirety. So should the um

1790
01:25:58,159 --> 01:26:00,000
subsequent phases of development move

1791
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:02,560
ahead, we would not we would not likely

1792
01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:04,480
be securing any additional parkland

1793
01:26:04,480 --> 01:26:07,600
dedication that is the parkland piece in

1794
01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:10,880
uh in its entirety.

1795
01:26:10,880 --> 01:26:13,760
Thanks for that sir. Thank you to the

1796
01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:15,520
chair and and you answered one of the

1797
01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:16,560
mayor law's questions around the

1798
01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:18,960
parkland dedication. Second and there's

1799
01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:20,320
as you're saying this is permission to

1800
01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:21,679
proceed. There's a lot of information

1801
01:26:21,679 --> 01:26:25,120
that's going to be coming forward and and around specifically around the

1802
01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:29,600
affordable housing u conversation and um

1803
01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:32,080
one and a half questions uh in terms of

1804
01:26:32,080 --> 01:26:34,080
at what phase do we start having that

1805
01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:35,440
would that be at first reading while

1806
01:26:35,440 --> 01:26:37,040
we'll get that information around those

1807
01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:38,960
conversations. And if you could remind

1808
01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:42,159
me on the on the initial 55 unit

1809
01:26:42,159 --> 01:26:45,760
apartment uh complex what uh and I can't

1810
01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:48,800
remember if there was uh affordable

1811
01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:50,719
housing uh that was incorporated into

1812
01:26:50,719 --> 01:26:52,239
that. I do remember there's a lot of

1813
01:26:52,239 --> 01:26:53,920
discussion around it but I can't

1814
01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:56,000
remember the final details of that.

1815
01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:57,199
>> Thank you for the question through the

1816
01:26:57,199 --> 01:26:59,600
chair. So the initial uh discussion of

1817
01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:04,080
the 55 unit um there was a a condition

1818
01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:06,080
applied to the zone in that it's um

1819
01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:08,960
restricted to rental and so there was no

1820
01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:11,199
affordability piece per se but it did

1821
01:27:11,199 --> 01:27:14,800
secure that housing as market rental. Um

1822
01:27:14,800 --> 01:27:16,800
with the uh discussions with the

1823
01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:18,880
applicant there was resistance to commit

1824
01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:21,360
to any affordability values because of

1825
01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:23,760
the funding models that they were

1826
01:27:23,760 --> 01:27:26,880
exploring. um they have, you know, often

1827
01:27:26,880 --> 01:27:29,360
have affordability components built into

1828
01:27:29,360 --> 01:27:31,920
that financing model. And so we very

1829
01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:33,760
likely would have seen affordability

1830
01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:36,239
affordable units sort of come out in

1831
01:27:36,239 --> 01:27:39,440
that um in that development. Uh but we

1832
01:27:39,440 --> 01:27:42,159
were unable to to sort of secure those

1833
01:27:42,159 --> 01:27:44,960
up front just because of the the early

1834
01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:47,600
stages of that development and not not

1835
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:49,120
knowing which funding model they were

1836
01:27:49,120 --> 01:27:51,920
going to go forward with. So now that um

1837
01:27:51,920 --> 01:27:54,719
we're further down the design

1838
01:27:54,719 --> 01:27:57,679
roadway um there's been a lot more work

1839
01:27:57,679 --> 01:28:00,800
gone into say the proforma and so

1840
01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:02,960
there's a bit more of an understanding

1841
01:28:02,960 --> 01:28:09,360
of of the the costs and um sort of the wiggle room per se that they would

1842
01:28:09,360 --> 01:28:10,960
have in sort of signing affordable

1843
01:28:10,960 --> 01:28:13,199
units. Um, and I just have to stress

1844
01:28:13,199 --> 01:28:16,000
that it was a very um

1845
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:18,719
just a a high level sort of

1846
01:28:18,719 --> 01:28:20,560
acknowledgement or willingness to enter

1847
01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:22,400
into that. There there was no commitment

1848
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:24,560
made, but there would be the the rental

1849
01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:29,360
tenure release for the 71.

1850
01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:31,760
So, sorry to to continue on with the

1851
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:33,920
second part of your question, we would

1852
01:28:33,920 --> 01:28:36,639
be having those conversations prior to

1853
01:28:36,639 --> 01:28:39,199
coming forward with first reading um

1854
01:28:39,199 --> 01:28:41,280
whether or not we were able to secure

1855
01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:43,440
the affordability piece or not and then

1856
01:28:43,440 --> 01:28:46,400
council could uh comment.

1857
01:28:46,400 --> 01:28:47,840
>> Great. Thank you. There would be there

1858
01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:51,199
will be some comments yet.

1859
01:28:51,199 --> 01:28:52,480
Anderson.

1860
01:28:52,480 --> 01:28:57,520
>> Um I have two questions and one was

1861
01:28:57,520 --> 01:29:02,800
answered about the parkland but um that dedication would be for the whole

1862
01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:05,120
par.

1863
01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:07,360
>> The other question I had about the

1864
01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:10,719
parkland. Do we know much about the

1865
01:29:10,719 --> 01:29:14,400
topography of the land and and if we're

1866
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:17,840
getting usable parkland or if it's

1867
01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:22,159
difficult to develop into recreational

1868
01:29:22,159 --> 01:29:23,760
property.

1869
01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:28,480
Um so maybe that will come out in in

1870
01:29:28,480 --> 01:29:31,760
further exploring and assessing it, but

1871
01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:35,280
maybe we know something about that now.

1872
01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:39,760
Um, so yeah, I'm I've we've had parkland

1873
01:29:39,760 --> 01:29:41,600
dedications

1874
01:29:41,600 --> 01:29:44,639
in the past that become quite difficult

1875
01:29:44,639 --> 01:29:48,400
to to do much with

1876
01:29:48,400 --> 01:29:52,320
uh due to the nature of the landscape.

1877
01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:54,880
We've had bogs and we've had rocks and

1878
01:29:54,880 --> 01:29:57,120
we've had

1879
01:29:57,120 --> 01:30:00,719
uh ravines and all sorts of things uh

1880
01:30:00,719 --> 01:30:04,080
donated to us in subdivision process

1881
01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:06,239
that don't make very good recreational

1882
01:30:06,239 --> 01:30:10,159
property. So I'm always looking at uh at

1883
01:30:10,159 --> 01:30:13,840
that as early on in

1884
01:30:13,840 --> 01:30:16,960
proposals as we as we can. So that's a

1885
01:30:16,960 --> 01:30:19,600
concern and I don't I don't know if you

1886
01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:22,080
have the answer to that question.

1887
01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:26,000
Um, the other thing I was wondering

1888
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:29,120
about, I I think some of the original

1889
01:30:29,120 --> 01:30:32,639
iterations of this entire

1890
01:30:32,639 --> 01:30:35,440
project, um,

1891
01:30:35,440 --> 01:30:39,679
that the numbers of apartment units were

1892
01:30:39,679 --> 01:30:44,080
more around 90 and now we're up into

1893
01:30:44,080 --> 01:30:51,920
30, 125 or so. Um, and I'm wondering if maybe we don't have the answer to

1894
01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:55,520
this if that's part of the perform and

1895
01:30:55,520 --> 01:30:57,920
the exploration of the feasibility of

1896
01:30:57,920 --> 01:31:00,480
the entire project

1897
01:31:00,480 --> 01:31:03,840
or that's higher numbers might be driven

1898
01:31:03,840 --> 01:31:08,800
by the request for affordable units.

1899
01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:10,880
Um,

1900
01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:13,120
yeah. And I'm just wondering if there's

1901
01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:16,960
any comment on that.

1902
01:31:16,960 --> 01:31:19,679
increased density overall with with just

1903
01:31:19,679 --> 01:31:23,040
the apartment zone.

1904
01:31:23,040 --> 01:31:24,239
>> Thank you for the comment through the

1905
01:31:24,239 --> 01:31:26,960
chair. Um so speak to the the higher

1906
01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,840
density um question first. I'm I'm not

1907
01:31:29,840 --> 01:31:32,400
sure what the rationale was for changing

1908
01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:34,880
that that volume, but I would suspect

1909
01:31:34,880 --> 01:31:36,639
that it was probably rooted in that

1910
01:31:36,639 --> 01:31:39,520
proforma. Um but I would have to defer

1911
01:31:39,520 --> 01:31:41,360
to the applicants to provide some

1912
01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:43,280
rationale for that and I'd be happy to

1913
01:31:43,280 --> 01:31:44,960
come back to council with that answer.

1914
01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:46,239
>> Okay.

1915
01:31:46,239 --> 01:31:48,800
um to uh speak to your first question

1916
01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:50,639
related to parkland, the condition of

1917
01:31:50,639 --> 01:31:53,040
that parkland once received. So, this

1918
01:31:53,040 --> 01:31:54,880
will be an important topic of

1919
01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:56,639
conversation as we move through the

1920
01:31:56,639 --> 01:31:58,480
negotiations for that parkland. It would

1921
01:31:58,480 --> 01:32:00,239
not be in the district's interest to

1922
01:32:00,239 --> 01:32:02,800
secure parkland that is not graded, that

1923
01:32:02,800 --> 01:32:06,400
is not potentially seated or serviced.

1924
01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:08,960
Um this would not be considered a piece

1925
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:11,440
of parkland that would serve as natural

1926
01:32:11,440 --> 01:32:14,400
vegetation or or uh like a conservation

1927
01:32:14,400 --> 01:32:17,600
piece. This would be a usable um

1928
01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:19,120
parkland that we would want to ensure

1929
01:32:19,120 --> 01:32:25,040
that is uh suited to recreation and and wouldn't be a cost burden to the

1930
01:32:25,040 --> 01:32:28,560
district that that that um transfer

1931
01:32:28,560 --> 01:32:31,040
occurs after the time in which the the

1932
01:32:31,040 --> 01:32:34,239
lands have been um developed to the

1933
01:32:34,239 --> 01:32:36,800
standard that we want them to be. Um and

1934
01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:39,120
this was discussed early. I know there

1935
01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:44,320
was early conversations about that being graded. The um the timing of that

1936
01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:46,800
transfer is likely to occur post

1937
01:32:46,800 --> 01:32:48,639
development. Hence why there was that

1938
01:32:48,639 --> 01:32:51,199
temporary park that was built into the

1939
01:32:51,199 --> 01:32:53,679
agreement early so that there was a an

1940
01:32:53,679 --> 01:32:57,199
area green space uh usable park land um

1941
01:32:57,199 --> 01:32:59,600
in advance of that larger piece being

1942
01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:03,440
completed. And so the applicants um have

1943
01:33:03,440 --> 01:33:05,679
expressed an intent to use that that

1944
01:33:05,679 --> 01:33:07,920
piece of land. um there's going to be a

1945
01:33:07,920 --> 01:33:09,760
lot of soil moving around and so it will

1946
01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:11,840
serve as a bit of a staging area. Um

1947
01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:13,360
they're going to have to build it up and

1948
01:33:13,360 --> 01:33:20,320
that that was part of the rationale for reconfiguring it was to um provide u

1949
01:33:20,320 --> 01:33:22,480
more of an opportunity to have a level

1950
01:33:22,480 --> 01:33:25,679
um and graded piece of parkland whereas

1951
01:33:25,679 --> 01:33:28,960
the other direction was quite a steep

1952
01:33:28,960 --> 01:33:30,880
slope so it may not have been suitable

1953
01:33:30,880 --> 01:33:33,280
for recreation use.

1954
01:33:33,280 --> 01:33:34,800
>> That's good. Glad to hear that. Thank

1955
01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:40,149
you. Jer.

1956
01:33:40,159 --> 01:33:42,320
» Yeah, I'm happy to see it proceed. This

1957
01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:45,600
has been around a long time. Um,

1958
01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:47,280
I identified some of the concerns I

1959
01:33:47,280 --> 01:33:49,920
have, which is water and parking. Uh,

1960
01:33:49,920 --> 01:33:52,480
we've recently approved a couple of

1961
01:33:52,480 --> 01:33:55,760
developments where the we've been

1962
01:33:55,760 --> 01:34:00,719
offered 10 to 20% affordable units.

1963
01:34:00,719 --> 01:34:02,560
I'll be brutally honest, I want to see

1964
01:34:02,560 --> 01:34:04,880
the same in this. I think it's time this

1965
01:34:04,880 --> 01:34:07,920
council got hard on

1966
01:34:07,920 --> 01:34:10,560
uh pushing developers to offer a decent

1967
01:34:10,560 --> 01:34:14,400
amount of affordable units. So you can

1968
01:34:14,400 --> 01:34:17,760
convey that message

1969
01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:20,719
>> if I may. Um that's in the funding model

1970
01:34:20,719 --> 01:34:24,719
there was um there there were higher

1971
01:34:24,719 --> 01:34:26,719
percentages. So based on like sort of

1972
01:34:26,719 --> 01:34:30,719
what um type of of residential agreement

1973
01:34:30,719 --> 01:34:32,159
we'd like to see, there could be

1974
01:34:32,159 --> 01:34:34,000
different stages of affordability built

1975
01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:35,920
into that for

1976
01:34:35,920 --> 01:34:38,320
>> I've seen funding models change so

1977
01:34:38,320 --> 01:34:40,080
often.

1978
01:34:40,080 --> 01:34:41,280
I want to see

1979
01:34:41,280 --> 01:34:46,629
>> I'll make sure it's noted.

1980
01:34:46,639 --> 01:34:49,199
» I have a a note. I noticed in the phase

1981
01:34:49,199 --> 01:34:52,000
one there was some other nonresidential

1982
01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:54,560
structures

1983
01:34:54,560 --> 01:34:57,440
store

1984
01:34:57,440 --> 01:34:59,199
like that. This I just want to note that

1985
01:34:59,199 --> 01:35:02,800
this is a significant dense

1986
01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:06,239
proposal and we have

1987
01:35:06,239 --> 01:35:09,679
as noted with THC when THC looks at

1988
01:35:09,679 --> 01:35:11,520
smaller

1989
01:35:11,520 --> 01:35:13,360
high density

1990
01:35:13,360 --> 01:35:17,120
developments the topic of covered space

1991
01:35:17,120 --> 01:35:20,800
or amenity space

1992
01:35:20,800 --> 01:35:24,000
by all residents is quite big deal and I

1993
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:25,360
don't see any on this and so I just

1994
01:35:25,360 --> 01:35:26,960
thought maybe it'd be good good time to

1995
01:35:26,960 --> 01:35:29,199
just throw that by the the applicant and

1996
01:35:29,199 --> 01:35:35,350
say look uh it's it's a high priority

1997
01:35:35,360 --> 01:35:38,560
significant dense proposal and that

1998
01:35:38,560 --> 01:35:41,120
would that would make their willing to

1999
01:35:41,120 --> 01:35:42,320
consider it. It would make their

2000
01:35:42,320 --> 01:35:44,159
proposal

2001
01:35:44,159 --> 01:35:45,760
a lot more appealing to the residents

2002
01:35:45,760 --> 01:35:47,440
that eventually live there and the

2003
01:35:47,440 --> 01:35:51,669
community

2004
01:35:51,679 --> 01:35:52,159
steer.

2005
01:35:52,159 --> 01:35:54,480
>> Yeah, thank you for the chair. you you

2006
01:35:54,480 --> 01:35:56,000
bring up a great point and I I think

2007
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:58,320
this is a a high density area. We're

2008
01:35:58,320 --> 01:36:00,800
creating quite a large new neighborhood

2009
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:02,639
uh potentially a large new neighborhood

2010
01:36:02,639 --> 01:36:04,560
in this area and so making those

2011
01:36:04,560 --> 01:36:07,280
neighborhoods uh very community focused

2012
01:36:07,280 --> 01:36:09,120
and livable. And I think that's going to

2013
01:36:09,120 --> 01:36:10,560
be something that I'm going to be really

2014
01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:14,320
looking for uh in there because we we

2015
01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:16,080
recognize the need for housing, but we

2016
01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:18,719
also want the type of housing uh that is

2017
01:36:18,719 --> 01:36:20,239
communityfriendly for lack of a better

2018
01:36:20,239 --> 01:36:21,440
description. So that'll be something

2019
01:36:21,440 --> 01:36:24,880
I'll be definitely keeping my eye on.

2020
01:36:24,880 --> 01:36:26,880
which alludes to the amenities that bear

2021
01:36:26,880 --> 01:36:31,430
law was just speaking to.

2022
01:36:31,440 --> 01:36:33,040
I'll just

2023
01:36:33,040 --> 01:36:36,320
>> um make a comment following up on those

2024
01:36:36,320 --> 01:36:38,960
since you guys brought it up uh through

2025
01:36:38,960 --> 01:36:42,400
the chair. Even though I do understand

2026
01:36:42,400 --> 01:36:45,199
the value of community spaces given the

2027
01:36:45,199 --> 01:36:48,800
rising cost of construction and owning

2028
01:36:48,800 --> 01:36:50,960
to councelor McMaster's point of wanting

2029
01:36:50,960 --> 01:36:52,960
to see more affordable housing

2030
01:36:52,960 --> 01:36:55,520
contributions from the developer rather

2031
01:36:55,520 --> 01:36:57,840
than looking to add on development

2032
01:36:57,840 --> 01:37:00,960
angles and costs. I'd be more interested

2033
01:37:00,960 --> 01:37:04,320
in prioritizing affordable housing uh

2034
01:37:04,320 --> 01:37:05,920
contributions coming out of this if

2035
01:37:05,920 --> 01:37:07,840
we're look like it's nice to have those

2036
01:37:07,840 --> 01:37:09,679
things, but if it's an added cost and

2037
01:37:09,679 --> 01:37:12,320
drives up the cost of construction and

2038
01:37:12,320 --> 01:37:14,800
reduces those contributions,

2039
01:37:14,800 --> 01:37:16,320
um that's something I would be concerned

2040
01:37:16,320 --> 01:37:21,510
about before we start asking for extras.

2041
01:37:21,520 --> 01:37:22,800
» Councelor Slowman.

2042
01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:24,560
>> Yeah, I just wanted to echo councelor

2043
01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:27,199
Anderson on that usable park space.

2044
01:37:27,199 --> 01:37:28,960
That's what I'll be looking for. that's

2045
01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:30,480
a priority when you're building a huge

2046
01:37:30,480 --> 01:37:33,840
neighborhood like this having someone

2047
01:37:33,840 --> 01:37:35,679
um

2048
01:37:35,679 --> 01:37:38,719
I also really appreciated the um water

2049
01:37:38,719 --> 01:37:41,440
conservation discussion being brought

2050
01:37:41,440 --> 01:37:45,520
and I think that'll be important to get these numbers to work

2051
01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:48,239
>> super all right any other comments

2052
01:37:48,239 --> 01:37:51,520
questions seeing none offer to read the

2053
01:37:51,520 --> 01:38:05,669
recommendation

2054
01:38:05,679 --> 01:38:07,760
I'll move that staff be authorized to

2055
01:38:07,760 --> 01:38:09,920
proceed with further review of the

2056
01:38:09,920 --> 01:38:13,600
zoning amended application for 825

2057
01:38:13,600 --> 01:38:16,719
Campbell Street. Second by C Thomas. All

2058
01:38:16,719 --> 01:38:18,719
in favor

2059
01:38:18,719 --> 01:38:21,360
car.

2060
01:38:21,360 --> 01:38:22,880
Right.

2061
01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:27,590
Moving on to 10.5

2062
01:38:27,600 --> 01:38:30,480
housekeeping

2063
01:38:30,480 --> 01:38:39,830
presentation I believe.

2064
01:38:39,840 --> 01:38:42,239
» So uh moving on to the zoning amendment

2065
01:38:42,239 --> 01:38:45,600
by presentation number 1359.

2066
01:38:45,600 --> 01:38:47,920
This is for subject property 1400

2067
01:38:47,920 --> 01:38:51,440
Pacific Highway.

2068
01:38:51,440 --> 01:38:53,520
uh just a summary of the proposal. So

2069
01:38:53,520 --> 01:38:57,119
this is uh to the the applicant seeks to

2070
01:38:57,119 --> 01:39:00,880
reszone from uh what's existing as A3 to

2071
01:39:00,880 --> 01:39:04,000
the RA4 or the large acreage

2072
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:06,800
residential. So, this was a a new um

2073
01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:08,880
zone that was created specifically for

2074
01:39:08,880 --> 01:39:11,440
this property uh but was intended to

2075
01:39:11,440 --> 01:39:14,639
serve as sort of a a general zone that

2076
01:39:14,639 --> 01:39:17,760
um potentially other properties would uh

2077
01:39:17,760 --> 01:39:20,159
benefit from that would align with the

2078
01:39:20,159 --> 01:39:23,280
rural uh land association. So, the total

2079
01:39:23,280 --> 01:39:27,119
lot area is about 13.9 14 acres, but the

2080
01:39:27,119 --> 01:39:29,199
parcel that we're speaking to is just

2081
01:39:29,199 --> 01:39:31,679
the southern lot um which is across the

2082
01:39:31,679 --> 01:39:34,080
highway which amounts to about 3.26 26

2083
01:39:34,080 --> 01:39:38,159
acres and for this development we're not

2084
01:39:38,159 --> 01:39:40,960
seeking any cash uni amenity

2085
01:39:40,960 --> 01:39:43,040
contributions given the scale of the

2086
01:39:43,040 --> 01:39:45,440
development development

2087
01:39:45,440 --> 01:39:48,400
the proposed uses uh will be for uh two

2088
01:39:48,400 --> 01:39:50,000
dwelling units that's in the form of

2089
01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:51,760
single family dwelling plus caretaker

2090
01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:53,679
cottage and secondary suite this keeps

2091
01:39:53,679 --> 01:39:56,239
it the low density uh there will be

2092
01:39:56,239 --> 01:39:58,000
permissions for home occupations as well

2093
01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:00,080
as accessory buildings although uh

2094
01:40:00,080 --> 01:40:02,000
short-term rentals and bed breakfast uh

2095
01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:04,000
uses have been explicitly excluded from

2096
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:06,239
the zone.

2097
01:40:06,239 --> 01:40:08,560
In terms of development of the lot, the

2098
01:40:08,560 --> 01:40:10,639
zone has incorporated a 30% lot

2099
01:40:10,639 --> 01:40:12,800
coverage. We've also incorporated a 30%

2100
01:40:12,800 --> 01:40:16,960
vegetation retention uh as well as um

2101
01:40:16,960 --> 01:40:19,199
the uh

2102
01:40:19,199 --> 01:40:22,880
30 m vegetation buffer. There is a

2103
01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:25,280
single access that was permitted in 2024

2104
01:40:25,280 --> 01:40:27,040
via the Ministry of Transportation

2105
01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:29,440
Transit access permit and that will be

2106
01:40:29,440 --> 01:40:32,239
the only access to the lot uh proposed.

2107
01:40:32,239 --> 01:40:34,639
it is subject to development permit um

2108
01:40:34,639 --> 01:40:36,000
number eight which is the wildlife

2109
01:40:36,000 --> 01:40:38,880
habitat DPA. So they did go through the

2110
01:40:38,880 --> 01:40:40,560
development permit process to secure

2111
01:40:40,560 --> 01:40:43,040
that access and would be required uh to

2112
01:40:43,040 --> 01:40:45,600
move through that process again at the

2113
01:40:45,600 --> 01:40:48,159
time of subdivision if uh if meant to

2114
01:40:48,159 --> 01:40:49,840
advance as well as the time of

2115
01:40:49,840 --> 01:40:52,950
construction.

2116
01:40:52,960 --> 01:40:55,199
Some highlights are that the uh the

2117
01:40:55,199 --> 01:40:57,920
development in its rural form uh line

2118
01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:00,719
with the OCP and land use designation of

2119
01:41:00,719 --> 01:41:02,880
the area. Uh the graphic there shows

2120
01:41:02,880 --> 01:41:04,639
that there is riparian that encroaches

2121
01:41:04,639 --> 01:41:07,760
onto the lot but does not um encumber

2122
01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:10,159
the proposed parcel. Uh there are

2123
01:41:10,159 --> 01:41:12,719
borders there at the um as you can see

2124
01:41:12,719 --> 01:41:14,239
alongside the highway that represents

2125
01:41:14,239 --> 01:41:16,320
the 30 meter vegetation retention

2126
01:41:16,320 --> 01:41:19,600
buffer. There is a covenant in place um

2127
01:41:19,600 --> 01:41:21,520
that that the district is named in. So

2128
01:41:21,520 --> 01:41:23,760
that does minimize the buildable area of

2129
01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:26,400
the lot helping to preserve a large area

2130
01:41:26,400 --> 01:41:29,520
of the the subject property um should

2131
01:41:29,520 --> 01:41:33,830
development proceed.

2132
01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:36,560
So um due to staff oversight we did not

2133
01:41:36,560 --> 01:41:39,280
meet the um statutory requirements for

2134
01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:41,440
notification for first reading of the

2135
01:41:41,440 --> 01:41:43,840
public hearing waiver. So notice was

2136
01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:45,679
redistributed or distributed in

2137
01:41:45,679 --> 01:41:49,840
accordance with the um LGA. Um we they

2138
01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:52,080
um have had the sign uh erected since

2139
01:41:52,080 --> 01:41:54,320
the first reading, first and second

2140
01:41:54,320 --> 01:41:56,560
reading and it's still in place. Uh we

2141
01:41:56,560 --> 01:41:58,320
hand delivered and mailed to all

2142
01:41:58,320 --> 01:42:00,719
residents and tenants within 60 meters

2143
01:42:00,719 --> 01:42:02,719
as well as posted in two editions of the

2144
01:42:02,719 --> 01:42:05,119
Westerly newspaper. From that public

2145
01:42:05,119 --> 01:42:07,280
engagement, we only received one uh

2146
01:42:07,280 --> 01:42:09,040
comment which was in support of the

2147
01:42:09,040 --> 01:42:11,679
application.

2148
01:42:11,679 --> 01:42:13,360
bringing us to the recommendation today

2149
01:42:13,360 --> 01:42:15,440
which is to resend uh the first and

2150
01:42:15,440 --> 01:42:17,520
second reading and proceed with

2151
01:42:17,520 --> 01:42:20,800
rereading of first, second and adding

2152
01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:24,639
the third to progress the file.

2153
01:42:24,639 --> 01:42:27,360
Look forward to any questions.

2154
01:42:27,360 --> 01:42:31,760
>> Thank you. Any questions for clarity?

2155
01:42:31,760 --> 01:42:33,360
None. Councelor Sawyer.

2156
01:42:33,360 --> 01:42:35,199
>> Um I was just going to say I'd be happy

2157
01:42:35,199 --> 01:42:38,560
to read the presenter motion.

2158
01:42:38,560 --> 01:42:41,119
>> Okay. I think there's no question.

2159
01:42:41,119 --> 01:42:43,679
There's no comments. I see none.

2160
01:42:43,679 --> 01:42:45,760
>> All right. I move that first and second

2161

All in favor? Opposed? Motion is

2167
01:43:01,360 --> 01:43:04,320
carried. And I move that district of

Thomas any comments on favor

2171
01:43:14,159 --> 01:43:15,679
security.

2172
01:43:15,679 --> 01:43:18,719
Excellent. We have no

2173
01:43:18,719 --> 01:43:21,440
business. We have item 13 business

2174
01:43:21,440 --> 01:43:25,750
initiative by council members

2175
01:43:25,760 --> 01:43:28,560
committee external appointments

2176
01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:30,159
etc.

2177
01:43:30,159 --> 01:43:32,400
Cloman.

2178
01:43:32,400 --> 01:43:33,840
>> Yeah, I'd like to give you a simple

2179
01:43:33,840 --> 01:43:36,400
motion that motion is preparing the

2180
01:43:36,400 --> 01:43:38,560
development of summer swimming and

2181
01:43:38,560 --> 01:43:46,629
aquatics at Kennedy Lake.

2182

Any other external

2183
01:43:49,920 --> 01:43:52,880
point verbal reports, committee reports?

2184
01:43:52,880 --> 01:43:55,360
Seeing none. Okay. Question period. Miss

2185

Larson.

2186
01:43:58,960 --> 01:44:00,960
We know currently everyone signed up for

2187
01:44:00,960 --> 01:44:02,480
question period. However, we do still

2188
01:44:02,480 --> 01:44:04,719
