Regrets: Terry Tanner, Steve Alison, Ted Worobetz, Chris Byrd

1. Call to Order Chairman Gabi Haas called the meeting to order at 6:35 p.m.

2. Adoption of Agenda There were no changes or additions to the agenda as presented. Motion: That the agenda be accepted. Moved by: Peter Schierbeck Carried

3. Adoption of February 7, 2013 Minutes Moved by: Moe Martin Carried

4. Business Arising from the Minutes 4.a Letter from CAO Elsie Lemke re Chamber and Committees of Council Due to duplication of effort, role confusion and limited financial and human resources the COTW passed the following resolution on February 28th: “That the Chamber of Commerce working collaboratively with the PEDC and the Tourism Advisory Committee be asked to seek models that will deal effectively with duplication of effort to enhance efficiency, coordination and communication and improve resourcing capacity and present their findings and recommendations to Council by September 30th, 2013.”

Councilor Schierbeck indicated committee leaders had consulted with the CAO regarding resources and there was a need to understand from other jurisdictions how this issue was addressed (Summerland for example has a combination of committees but are independent). Council agreed to provide staff support to research models in other communities and to provide this information to the PEDC, the Chamber of Commerce and the Tourism Committee. A discussion followed on business licences. Rob Campbell stated there were 400 businesses in Peachland but not all were licenced and as funding models are based on this potential revenue is being lost.

Minutes to be received for information: COTW Meeting held Ap... Page 21 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 7.A.

Motion: That PEDC support the District of Peachland in enforcing the business licence by-law: Moved by: Darci Yeo Carried.

5 New Business

5.a Kamloops Economic Development Conference Councilor Peter Shierbeck attended the conference highlighting the following learning points: • Advantages of using social media. • Economic development to include tourism. • SPOTS (Strategic Plan on the Shelf) keep it front of you. • Agri-business opportunities. • Develop strategies for business retention and expansion. • Make use of Opportunities BC website. • Develop an available land inventory. • Consider by-law changes to facilitate businesses. • Reduce red tape e.g. Lake Country has reduced time required to get relevant permits from 6 months down to 2 weeks. • Incorporate PEDC website with District of Peachland website. • Remove negative signage (signage needs to be inviting). • Install way-ﬁnding signs

After further discussion the following points emerged: • There is some duplication of effort relating to the Tourism Advisory Committee and the Tourist Information Centre. • Economic development in Peachland will essentially be tourism based. • If committees amalgamate it was suggested that council representatives be ex-ofﬁcio in order to keep committee at a manageable size. • First step would be to merge Tourism Advisory and PEDC followed by a review and possible models of the relationship between the Chamber and PEDC.

Additional discussion once again bought up the issue of available land for commercial and /or industrial development in Peachland. Moe Martin reported that his earlier survey conﬁrmed that their is no suitable land zoned for commercial or light industrial in Peachland other than some that is within the ALR and therefore not available. Peter Schierbeck noted that the downtown RTE is zoned commercial including residential houses to 6th st. Motion: That PEDC requests the District of Peachland to carry out a land inventory survey of available commercial and light industrial land (if indeed available) and post it on the District website. Moved by: Gabi Haas Carried

5.b Zoning By-Law Workshop

Minutes to be received for information: COTW Meeting held Ap... Page 22 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 7.A.

There is a requirement that by-laws, particularly zoning, require revision to assist in attracting suitable developments and making it generally easier to conduct business in Peachland. Dave Stuart reported that Urban Systems have been retained to collect third party (developers, concerned citizens etc) input. Peter Schierbeck agreed to identify who took notes of the initial meeting and table them at a future PEDC meeting for discussion.

5.c Community Amenity Contribution Charges Moe Martin reported back on his survey of other communities as to their comparable charges. It was noted that no local jurisdictions have a by-law or policy regarding Amenities Charges in place (see Appendix 1). After further discussion it was agreed that the Amenities Charge was detrimental to attracting the downtown development of Peachland, however it should be recognized there maybe some ﬂexibility in that it is a policy and not a by-law and can it only be changed following re-zoning of a property. Motion: That the PEDC and Chamber of Commerce recommend that council amend the Amenities Charge Policy to exempt commercial structures within the RTE area.

District of Peachland Request for Decision

To: Mayor & Council From: Doug Pryde, Director of Finance Date: April 16, 2013 Subject: 2013 Financial Plan Recommendation: THAT Council gives three readings to 2013 Financial Plan Bylaw Number 2051, 2013.

Chief Administrative Officer’s Comments:

I support the recommendations:______

Implications of Recommendation:

General: N/A

Organizational: N/A

Financial: The proposed Financial Plan has minor tax impacts as a result of a healthy surplus in 2012, additional revenue generated by new construction assessment, and maintaining low reserve contributions in 2013. The Committee of the Whole through the budget deliberation process approved a 2.8 percent increase in general municipal property taxes for the average single family dwelling. This increase does not account for the large funding shortfall in reserve contributions required to fund the replacement of tangible capital assets within the District. This funding shortfall will be defined once the asset management plan is completed and presented to Council in 2013 for additional reserve funding consideration in the 2014 Financial Plan. This year is the first full year the District is responsible for directly funding policing services. Total 2013 policing costs in the amount of $606,655 includes four RCMP members, shared accommodation costs with the District of West Kelowna, prisoner expense shared with the City of Kelowna, equivalent to one support staff shared with the District of West Kelowna and the City of Kelowna, and a shared liaison officer. In order to mitigate the tax burden on policing, the District has budgeted a $288,573 contribution from the Policing Reserve Fund to offset policing costs. The portion of policing funded from taxation amounts to $318,082 which converts to a 2.1 percent increase in taxation to the average single family dwelling who will pay an estimated $26.13 in additional policing tax.

Financial Plan Bylaw No. 2051, 2013 Page 29 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 8.A.

The District of Peachland Water Master Plan identifies water capital improvements in the amount of $44,900,866 over a 17-year period. Considering development cost charge and grant funding, the District’s portion of these costs amounts to approximately $18,044,251. The District will also be responsible for approximately $3,000,000 in ongoing replacement work. On February 26, 2013, the Committee of the Whole approved a $25 increase in the Water Improvement parcel tax assessment from $300 to $325 to fund the District’s portion of the Water Master Plan construction. Effective April 1, 2013, the District is responsible for transit services estimated to cost $120,000 in 2013. This function was recently transferred from the Regional District. Therefore, the tax levy is transferred from collections from other governments to a District levy with little tax impact associated with an additional $8,000 budgeted for increased transit services to be implemented towards the end of this year. Some of the major projects identified in the 2013 capital plan include the completion of the Primary School upgrades in the amount of $339,287 funded by grants from the provincial Community Recreation Fund and the federal Enabling Accessibility Fund, and the implementation of the sidewalk master plan including sidewalk construction identified in this plan costing $377,000 funded from federal gas tax funds available for sustainable projects. The most significant water capital project includes the gravity trunk Ponderosa Interconnection project costing $1,541,038 funded entirely from the Ponderosa development. Strategic Plan: N/A

BACKGROUND: The Committee of the Whole met on January 8th and 22th, February 5th, 12th and 26th, March 12th and 26th to review in detail the operating budget, civic grant approvals, and capital works priorities. The 2013 Financial Plan will be presented in greater detail at the Regular Meeting of Council on April 23rd when an opportunity will be available for the residents of Peachland to express an opinion on the District’s Financial Plan.

District of Peachland Request for Decision

To: Mayor & Council From: Doug Pryde, Director of Finance Date: April 17, 2013 Subject: 2013 Tax Rates Bylaw Recommendation: THAT Council gives three readings to the Corporation of the District of Peachland Tax Rates Bylaw Number 2053, 2013.

Chief Administrative Officer’s Comments:

I support the recommendations:______

Implications of Recommendation:

General: N/A

Organizational: N/A

Financial: The general tax rates reflect a 2.8 percent tax increase to the average single family dwelling who will be paying an additional $32.95 in general municipal taxes in 2013 excluding parcel tax increases. As a result of the new transit assessment explained in the 2013 Financial Plan report, a new tax rate category for transit has been established. Similar to the policing assessment, the transit levy will be shown separately on the tax notice allowing property owners to identify the transit impact on taxation. This year Council approved a further reduction in the business tax multiplier from 1.95 to 1.90 to decrease the tax burden on business owners by increasing taxation to utilities. As a result the utility tax multiplier has increased from 6.44 to 8.4826 transferring $4,500 in taxation from business to utilities with no impact on the residential tax assessment. Strategic Plan: N/A

BACKGROUND: Before May 15th Council must adopt a Tax Rates Bylaw, which establishes the general property tax rates for the current year. This bylaw also includes the tax rates established by other governments.

To: Mayor & Council From: Doug Pryde, Director of Finance Date: April 17, 2013 Subject: 2013 Parcel Tax Bylaws Recommendation: THAT Council gives three readings to the 2013 Parcel Tax Bylaws by one resolution.

Chief Administrative Officer’s Comments:

Implications of Recommendation:

General: N/A

Organizational: N/A

Financial: The following table summarizes the original borrowing proceeds, the outstanding debts as at December 31, 2012, and the recommended 2013 parcel tax assessments. Outstanding Debt as Project Borrowing Proceeds at December 31, 2012 Parcel Tax Downtown 70,000 41,255 224.86 Revitalization RDCO Solid Waste N/A N/A 14.18 Transfer Station Water System 3 644,000 264,399 23.32 Intake Water System 2 189,000 103,549 84.87 Supply Line Water Capital N/A N/A 325.00 Improvement Sewer Force Main 1,289,925 760,231 75.00 Beach Avenue Sewer 2,710,075 1,597,211 23.17 Collection System (plus $81.88/acre) Phase 1-D and Phase 3,169,213 2,568,161 184.19 2 Sewer Collection System

Changes to the parcel tax rates from 2012 are as follows:

1. RDCO Transfer Station parcel tax decreased from $15.73 to $14.18 as a result of reduction of the Regional District’s transfer station levy from $43,720 to $39,493 as well as an increase of 6 parcels within the District’s boundaries.

2. Water System Number Three parcel tax decreased from $23.59 to $23.32 as a result of an increase of 10 parcels within the Water System Three local service area.

3. Water Capital Improvement parcel tax is increased from $300 to $325 as approved at the February 26th Committee of the Whole to fund the District’s share of capital costs associated with the Water Master Plan.

4. Beach Avenue Sewage Collection Specified Area parcel tax decreased from $23.25 to $23.17 as a result of an increase of 2 parcels within the Beach Avenue Sewage Collection specified area.

5. Phase 1-D and Phase 2 Sewer Collection Specified Areas parcel tax decreased from $185.33 to $184.19 as a result of an increase of 2 parcels within the Phase 1-D and Phase 2 Sewer Collection local service areas. Strategic Plan: N/A

BACKGROUND: During 1993, Council approved construction of a major upgrading at the Deep Creek Water System Intake. That work was assisted by a provincial grant. The share to be paid by property owners in the old Water System Three Specified Area was $644,000. The borrowing for this project is to be repaid over a 25-year term.

In 1995, Council approved construction of a new Supply Main and Booster Pump Station for Water System Two. The amount borrowed is $189,000 repaid over a 25-year term.

During 1996, Council approved several Loan Authorization Bylaws for the Downtown Revitalization Project, Beach Avenue Sewer Collection Project, and Force Main Transmission Line to Westbank Sewage Treatment Plant. The amount borrowed is four million dollars repaid over a 25-year term.

In 2002, Council approved the Loan Authorization Bylaw for the Phase 1-D and Phase 2 Sewer Collection System.

In 2007, Council adopted a water master plan identifying water capital improvements in the amount of $44,900,866 over a 17-year period funded by the Water Capital Improvement parcel tax assessment.

The Regional District provided a landfill option for Peachland by having a solid waste transfer station available in West Kelowna for Peachland residents to utilize. The annual cost allocated to Peachland in 2013 is $39,493 recovered through parcel taxation at a rate of $14.18 per parcel.

District of Peachland Request for Decision

To: Mayor & Council From: Director of Community Services Date: April 17, 2013 Subject: Climate Change Showdown Recommendation: THAT Council fund the Climate Change Showdown for $1520.00 from the Community Services Budget “Other Events”.

Chief Administrative Officer’s Comments:

I support the recommendations:______

Implications of Recommendation:

General: Project supported by the Mayors’ Task Force on Climate Change Organizational: n/a Financial: $380/per class room (4 intermediate classrooms) Can be absorbed by the Community Services Budget in 2013 Policy: The District signed the Climate Action Charter (2007) committing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Strategic Plan: Community Action Charter

BACKGROUND: The Mayors’ Task Force on Climate Change has been looking for innovative strategies to engage the community – including children – in projects that reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions. The Climate Change Show Down is a program designed for children grade 4-7 offered through the BC Sustainable Energy Association (BCSEA). In reviewing the program with the committee, it appears that this program meets the objectives of the Mayors’ Task Force on engaging the children in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. District staff is meeting with the school on Friday, April 19th to determine feasibility of implementation in this (2012-2013) school year.

The Climate Change Showdown (CCS) includes a 90 minute workshop and a 4 week home activity known as the “CCS Contest”. The workshop is delivered to grade 4-7 students in the classroom in a fun and interactive way that engages the students. The students are trained to be Climate Change Superheroes, equipping them with the skills and knowledge to reduce their carbon footprint through taking part in the contest, which encourages changing behaviours at

Climate Change Showdown 2011/12 Final Report-BC Hydro

By: Renate Sitch, Program Manager 29/June/2012

Thanks to the generous support of $7,000 from BC Hydro, the BCSEA was able to deliver the Climate Change Showdown (CCS) to elementary schools in BC Hydro service areas across the province during the 2011/12 school year. The funding covered delivery of 20 workshops in a range of communities. It also attracted vital support from other funders.

The CCS program took a fun-filled 90-minute workshop into the classroom to educate students on climate change and energy conservation. Grade 4 to 7 students and their teachers were engaged with a story telling adventure traveling to the future in a time machine to imagine a positive green future that they are involved in creating, followed by a 20-minute animated video and playing the BCSEA-designed climate change quiz show and skits. After learning about climate change and brainstorming how they can reduce their own impact, the students took home the Climate Change Showdown Contest and worked with their parents for four weeks to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs).

Results The BCSEA delivered 230 Climate Change Showdown workshops to 6073 students in schools in B.C. from November 2011 to May 2012 as follows:

Measuring Green House Gas Reductions The program estimates GHG savings resulting from contest forms* and the actions within using a GHG calculator tool. For each activity it is assumed that a given saving will result from that activity over the period of the contest. It is then assumed that the students newly learned behaviour will continue for the year. Savings are measured in kWh of electricity and gas, litres of water, km traveled by car and so forth. The resulting GHG savings are calculated using emissions factors for electricity produced in BC (BC Hydro) and standard emissions factors for natural gas, and gasoline.

The GHG calculator tool was updated for the 2011-12 school year. In previous years, emissions savings per action were borrowed from the federal government’s One Tonne Challenge (2004). As the Challenge had not been revamped recently we choose to review the emissions savings for each action in house, resulting in a more detailed and transparent calculator.

We applied a BC relevant emissions factor to electricity data, which is lower than the Canadian average that was used by the One Tonne Challenge. Therefore, emissions savings from reduced electricity use are now lower on the contest. Some other actions have slightly higher savings but overall the total savings are less. The core actions now save 2.7 tonnes GHGs compared to 3.3 tonnes last year. The newly added “additional” actions are worth 0.6 tonnes (making a total possible saving of 3.33 tonnes on this year’s contest).

Other new features of the GHG calculator include the ability to measure savings per replaced light bulb, rather than assuming a bulk number of light bulbs is replaced by each student completing the action. The latest data for eating meat free meals is taken from the Environmental Working Group's Meat Eaters Guide (2012). Gasoline savings were estimated using the 2009 Canadian Vehicle Survey. Other sources included guides produced by BC Hydro and Fortis BC, the Capitol Regional District and the One Tonne Challenge.

* Contest Forms: this measurement tool is an action-based contest that awarded points to students who completed actions related to saving energy, water, fuel, reducing waste, eating locally, and trying meat free meals over a four week period (as verified by their parent’s signatures). Contest Actions and GHG Savings

The overall provincial contest participation rate was 48.8%. The percentage of classes that returned some contests was 90%. From a greenhouse gas perspective, the program reduced GHG emissions by over an estimated 3661.7 tonnes, the equivalent of taking 651 cars off the road for a year, the use of electricity for 414 homes for a year, and the equivalent of carbon sequestration of 708 acres of pine or forests.

To engage the students, there was space to write or draw their own GHG saving ideas; 1070 ideas were submitted and the best ideas will be posted to our Facebook page or can be seen below. (See Appendix B)

Rewarding Showdown Participants

For the winning classes that achieved the highest average of GHG’s in each region a Pizza Party was organized and sourced from locally owned businesses were feasible. Additional prizes for 346 top students prizes included: a tour for 4 at Grouse Mountain, 2 Casio solar watches, Green Science toys, Solar Keychain flashlights, recycled aluminum carabineers, various books related to climate change, Grow your own food kits/pods, re-usable bags, and various regional donated prizes and gift certificates. Over 230 Teachers played a key part in motivating students and those with high class participation rates (134 provincially) received thank-you cards and incentive prizes.

Looking Forward

With six successful years of the Climate Change Showdown, we are happy with our success and grateful for the funding from our supporters who have made it all possible. In an effort to ensure future success and growth the program staff and advisory committee hosted a strategic planning session on July 6th, 2011, to assess the program and prioritize some needed enhancements for the short and long term. Much of the feedback collected from stakeholders was taken into consideration while formatting this year’s program format and materials. Due to these changes we have been able to increase our return rates from 29% to 48% for participating students and from 62% to 90% per class!

The introduction of a follow-up visit to the classrooms to collect contests and recognize the students hard work as well as to ensure accountability with teachers is likely a major reason for this. We piloted the follow-up visit in most regions and, given our results, we intend to role this out to all regions next year.

We are very excited to be continuously redeveloping the program and will continue to schedule time and resources for future improvements.

Challenges:

Although we were able to increase our results this year - we had to work for it! With the BC Teacher’s strike ongoing throughout the year we had some difficulties communicating with teachers to book workshops and had to be more aggressive in our efforts. Also, due to some funding cuts as compared to last year we delivered about 70 fewer workshops in BC.

Recognition of BC Hydro’s Support

BC Hydro was acknowledged for their support of the Climate Change Showdown as follows:

 BC Hydro was featured as a funder on the Climate Change Contest form taken home by students  A BC Hydro logo (hyperlink to BC Hydro website) and name on the sponsor’s page of BCSEA website (www.bcsea.org/ccshowdown)  Students were directed to view the BC Hydro website as part of an energy saving action on the contest form  Presenters were instructed to acknowledge the BC Hydro Power Smart program

The BCSEA would like to thank BC Hydro for its partnership in achieving the shared goals of increasing awareness and making real behaviour change possible in relation to energy conservation and GHG reduction among students and their families in BC.

Thank-you, we look forward to 2012/13 and beyond!

Zoning Application from R1, Single Family to CD-10 Comprehen... Page 89 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.A.

Strategic Plan: N/A

BACKGROUND: Application:

The application proposes to develop a duplex (2 family dwelling) on a site which is zoned R-1 (Single Family Residential Zone). Rezoning to CD-10 comprehensive Development District is required to accommodate this request.

The subject property comprises approximately 1,271 m2. (13,679 ft2) and is currently zoned R-1 (Single Family Residential). The property is designated as Low Density Residential within the Official Community Plan, which permits a maximum density of 15 units per hectare (6) units per acre) and a maximum height of three stories. The OCP policies encourage locating duplexes close to multiple family residential, commercial or institutional uses, in single family areas undergoing redevelopment and innovative housing forms such as cluster housing where slopes can integrate form without significant impact on the natural attributes of the proposed site.

The “Stonewater” project is located two lots North of this property where the Applicant has completed an eight units townhouse development which has received a Okanagan Building “Tommi” award in 2012.

Usable Private Open Space 470m2

Servicing Issues:

This property has municipal water and sanitary sewer available to the property. The previous developer when subdividing this property in 2006 provided cash in lieu of curb, gutter and sidewalk on one side and dedication of 3m of waterfront as required. Therefore this applicant cannot be requested to contribute to these items again. Staff will still request review of street lighting and fire hydrant requirements. They will however be required to contribute Development Cost charges (DCC’) at time of subdivision approval.

The developer will be required to construct all ‘on and off–site” services that will be required in order to see the proposed development proceed. As the project will eventually be a strata development, the strata corporation will assume all maintenance responsibilities for all infrastructures within the property lines.

Zoning Application from R1, Single Family to CD-10 Comprehen... Page 90 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.A.

Project Features:

The site specific form and character of the buildings and landscaping are submitted as conceptual drawings only at this time and will be processed as part of a Development Permit which happens prior to issuance of a building permit

The land is to be developed as a stratified duplex. The two units will be slightly off-set 1.7m (5.6 ft) in front of the other. The units are shown as 2 stories from the Buchanan Road elevation and will be a 3 storey walk out from the lake side. The building height and roof line will be flat reducing the possibility of visual impact to homes of the upper side of Buchanan Road. It is anticipated that these two units will be finished similar to the “Stonewater” development which is located two lots to the north. The form and character details will be specifically addressed during the Development permit process.

A detached accessory duplex garage (48’ X 22 ft) will be constructed along the south property line, also flat roof and finished the same as the duplex units.

The general concept of the landscaping plan and proposed retaining walls have been provided indicating the trees, shrubs and groundcover that will be provided. The retaining walls will be approximately 1.5m in height and constructed of textured (natural look) interlocking stone. Photographs of the natural looking stone have been attached.

The project will assist the District in the reduction of Greenhouse gases (GHG’s). It contains a number of sustainable development features, which are listed as: High standard “E” windows with shading to reduce summer heat and save energy demand for heating and cooling Geo-thermal heating systems, with heat pump systems shall be provided. heat recovery ventilation systems low flow fixtures to reduce water use. xeriscape landscaping to reduces watering and irrigation demand. Passive solar

Land Use Regulation – CD Zoning Proposed:

A Comprehensive Development Zone is being proposed. The CD zone represents a site- specific land use regulation adopted in response to the application of a landowner whose plans cannot be accommodated by using an existing zoning category. The bylaw refers to the use, density and siting of buildings and structures that are site specific to this zone and attached as schedules to the zoning bylaw.

Additional Requirements: Before public hearing, staff will require additional information including: a Geotechnical and hydro-geotechnical report, a design brief: report on engineering matters – sanitary and storm sewer, and water.

Referral comments will be requested prior to Public Hearing. Prior to any development taking place on the proposed site a Development Permit will be required to be provided at a public meeting of Council and approved by Council resolution. The Development Permit (DP) will include detailed plans showing, proposed siting on the property, elevations of the buildings and how compatible they are with the natural attributes of the site.

Public Information meeting:

The applicant has canvassed the neighbourhood to obtain feedback and has held a public information meeting on April 15th, 2013. The results of this survey are as follows.

District of Peachland Request for Decision

To: Mayor & Council From: Dave Smith, Director of Planning and Development Services

Date: March 25, 2013

Subject: Development Permit DP13/10,003 – 5261 Buchanan Road Lot 3, Plan KAP37515, DL 449

Recommendation: THAT Council approve Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmentally sensitive area on Lot 3, Plan KAP37515, DL 449

Chief Administrative Officer’s Comments:

I support the recommendations:______

Implications of Recommendation:

General: The Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA) Development Permit will protect and minimize the impact of development within the riparian area of 30m from a high water mark.

Organizational: N/A

Financial: N/A

Policy: Provincial Riparian Areas Regulation (RAR) requires a Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) report for any works within 30m of a stream or lake

BACKGROUND: The owner of the property located at 5261 Buchanan Road wishes to construct a pool and associated landscaping e.g. retaining walls, patios, ornamental planting etc. The need for a Development Permit for this project is due to the proximity of the property to Okanagan Lake. When any work is proposed 30m from a stream or lake an Environmentally Sensitive Areas Development Permit is triggered. This is in direct compliance with Provincial Riparian Area Regulations (RAR) which requires a Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) report regarding any proposed development within that 30m buffer zone. As is required with all Development Permits a letter requesting comments or concerns was sent to property owners within a 100m radius of the above noted properties.

Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmen... Page 109 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.B.

The Specified Streamside Protection and Enhancement Area (SPEA) width for the subject property equals 15m from the high water level (HWL). The encroachment area will be enhanced with native riparian plantings. The proposed development consists of a pool construction and landscaping within 30m of the HWL of Okanagan Lake, the proposed works are detailed on the landscaping plan attached to this report. Works include installation of a pool, hot tub, pizza oven and patio/decking construction all greater than 15m from the HWL. The only works within the SPEA include the minor grading, removal of a wooden boardwalk and concrete stairs from within 15m of the HWL which will be replace with flagstone steps and bordered with drystack retaining wall which will have a smaller footprint than the existing concrete steps. Plantings are also proposed at the subject property with only native species being planted within 15m of the HWL. The report indicates that the majority of the SPEA is associated with the lake foreshore has been altered from its natural character by previous construction on the site over many years. The Applicant will be required to provide security/bonding for the landscaping as part of the Development Permit requirement.

DISCUSSION: RAR Report The RAR report as submitted by a QEP regarding this project has some very specific recommendations regarding: 1. Encroachment 2. Sediment and Erosion Control 3. Stormwater Management 4. Environmental Monitoring

It is very important to note that a QEP will be required to monitor the project as it is required by the report. (See RAR Report Attachment) Staff has placed the recommendations of the RAR report into the draft Development Permit attached. Neighbourhood Notification Letters were mailed to all surrounding property owners within 100m. Any responses received will be provided at the Council meeting. Earthworks If Council approves this DP the applicant will need to obtain an Earthworks Permit for the works to be conducted on the site(s). The Earthworks Permit will include the requirements as necessitated by the RAR report and the DP.

Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmen... Page 113 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.B.

1. TERMS AND CONDITIONS:

The applicant intends to construct a pool, and associated landscaping, retaining walls, patio, ornamental planting within the 30 m. Riparian Regulation Assessment Area which triggers the requirement for an Environmentally Sensitive Development Permit. The Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) should be retained to be on site to document compliance with the proposed mitigation measures and to provide guidance during the proposed works adjacent to Okanagan Lake. The detailed recommendations are attached as part of the Riparian Area Regulations Assessment Report Schedule “A”. The following requirements summarize the requirements to mitigate the impact of this encroachment.

(a) A Silt fence should be installed along the SPEA boundary to mitigate the risks to aquatic resources associated with potential runoff and sediment transport. Silt fences should be staked into the ground and trenched a minimum of 15 cm to prevent flow beneath. Silt fencing should be monitored on a regular basis and any damages or areas where the Silt fence must remain in place until all demolition and/or construction activities are complete.

(b) All construction debris must be kept outside the 15m SPEA and should be removed from the property on a regular basis.

(c) Stockpiling of fill material within the 15m SPEA must not occur. Any fill material, if required for construction, must be located outside the SPEA beyond the silt fence. If material will be stockpiled near or adjacent to the SPEA for an extended period of time, it must be covered with polyethylene sheeting or similar material to prevent the stockpile from eroding and carrying sediment laden runoff into the lake.

(d) Sediments, debris concrete, concrete fines, or wash water associated with pouring of the concrete must not come into contact with Okanagan Lake or be discharged within the 15m SPEA. The concrete cast in place must remain inside sealed formed structures until cured and any runoff associated with cast in place concrete must be controlled so that is does not flow into the lake.

(e) No equipment refuelling or servicing should be undertaken within 30 m of Okanagan Lake. A staging location for equipment maintenance and fuelling should be established at least 30 m from Okanagan Lake and used for the duration of construction activities.

(f) A spill containment kit should be kept readily available onsite during construction in case of the accidental release of a deleterious substance to the environment. Any spills of a toxic substance should be immediately reported to the Provincial Emergency Program 24 hour hotline at 1-800-663-3456

(g) No beach grooming, additional of sand, removal of cobble/boulders, or removal of

Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmen... Page 114 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.B.

riparian vegetation should occur at any time. No dredging or placement of fill below the lake high water level (343m geodetic) should occur at any time.

(h) Stormwater will not be discharged to Okanagan Lake as part of the proposed development. Also there should be no discharge of pool water to Okanagan Lake. Alternatively, pool water must be de-chlorinated, prior to slow release to a vegetated area in order to avoid the potential for surface runoff entering Okanagan Lake or erosion within the SPEA.

(i) Recommendations with respect to the proposed plantings as shown on plan prepared by Outline Design landscape Architecture dated December 14, 2012 and attached as Schedule “B” include the following;

a. Temporary irrigation should be installed, with watering occurring for the first 2 growing seasons until plans are established, hand watering or drip irrigation are acceptable; b. Survival criteria of 80% of the native plants over a 2 year period should be required. c. Any tree removals within the SPEA are subject to tree replacement criteria and compensation plantings would be required. d. Upon completion of the proposed works, invasive plant species should be removed from the disturbed area and the SPEA without the use of chemical pesticides/herbicides and fertilisers. Invasive species should be pulled by hand.

(j) Proposed works will be conducted beyond the Okanagan Lake floodplain.

(k) Ecoscape Environmental Consultants Ltd. will ensure that all required notifications are filed with the appropriate regulatory agencies.

(l) An environment monitor (EM should be retained to provide documentation and guidance during construction activities and during implementation of erosion and sediment control measures. In the event that greater disturbance occurs due to unforeseen circumstances, the monitor should recommend further measures (3e.g., erosion and sediment control) to protect/restore the natural integrity of the site. The EM should also be authorized to halt construction activities should an incident arise that is causing undue harm (unforeseen or from lack of due care) to terrestrial, aquatic or riparian resource values. The EM duties and schedule will include as a minimum the following:

i. A pre-construction meeting will be held prior to implementation of works. During this visit, best management practices and erosion and sediment control measures will be reviewed;

Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmen... Page 115 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.B.

ii. Visits should be conducted monthly during construction and will target higher risk activities. The EM should be notified prior to concrete works associated with the pool construction so they can schedule visits accordingly. The EM should be contracted prior to initiating landscaping to review plant species and placement prior to implementation.

iii. Environmental monitoring reports will be generated for each monitoring visit and submitted to the client, contractor(s), the District of Peachland and relevant regulator(s); and

iv. Following completion of the project, a substantial completion report will be submitted to the client, the District of Peachland and regulator(s).

(m) Development of this site shall not commence until an Earthworks permit has been approved and issued by the District. The Earthworks permit must reflect the intent of the recommendation set out in the geotechnical and RAR assessment.

(n) Development of this site will require building permits to be issued pursuant to BC Building Code and the District’s Building Bylaw.

(o) Any retaining wall(s) proposed to be built within the rear yard setback will require the Director of Planning and Development Services to approve the aesthetic nature of that wall(s) prior to a building permit for such works being issued.

2. The development shall commence by and in accordance with an approved building Permit within ONE YEAR of the date of the Municipal Council authorization resolution.

Section 1. Description of Fisheries Resources Values and a Description of the Development proposal

Background and Proposed Development

The subject property is legally described as Lot 3, Plan 37515 (Figure 1). A survey of the site has been completed and is attached as Appendix A. House construction is currently occurring at the subject property; however, this work was not within 30m of the high water level (HWL) of Okanagan Lake, and it is understood that the District of Peachland did not require a Riparian Areas Regulation assessment to be completed. The proposed development consists of a pool construction and landscaping within 30m of the HWL of Okanagan Lake; the proposed works are detailed on the landscaping plan attached as Appendix B. Details of the proposed works include installation of a pool, hot tub, pizza oven and patio/decking construction (all greater than 15m from the HWL). In addition, the proposed works involve the removal of a wooden boardwalk and concrete stairs from within 15m of the HWL. It is proposed the stairs will be replaced with flagstone steps (and bordered with dry stack wall) which will have a smaller footprint than the existing concrete steps. Plantings are also proposed at the subject property with only native species being planted within 15m of the HWL. It is understood that the existing dock will be removed and reconstructed along the eastern side of the subject property. A separate report is being prepared and a Development Permit (through the District of Peachland) and Section 9 application will be submitted for the proposed dock removal and construction.

The subject property, occurs along the western shoreline of Okanagan Lake and is within the District of Peachland. Therefore the District of Peachland Official Community Plan (OCP) is applicable at this site (November, 2011). This OCP requires a Foreshore Areas Development Permit and Riparian Areas Regulation (RAR) submission as the subject property is within 30 m of a watercourse.

The RAR indicates that the proximity of the subject property to Okanagan Lake requires a detailed assessment by a Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) to determine the Streamside Protection and Enhancement Area (SPEA) setbacks from the HWL of Okanagan Lake (Figure 2). A site assessment of the subject property was completed by Katrina Gousmett, B.Sc., B.I.T., Natural Resource Biologist with Ecoscape on October 19, 2012.

The subject property currently contains a new house (being constructed out of the 30 m RAR assessment area), a patio area and landscaped garden (Photos 1 and 2). Within the riparian/foreshore area there is an existing boat house (and ramp to the lake), boat launch, concrete retaining wall and stairs, deck area and dock (Photos 3 and 4).

The determined SPEA for the subject property is 15 m (setback from the HWL of Okanagan Lake) based on the Litter Fall and Insect Drop and Large Woody Debris zones of sensitivity. The proposed development covers an area of approximately 571 m2 and the SPEA has an area of approximately 481 m2 (Figure 2 and Appendix B). The only works within the SPEA include minor regrading, removal of a wooden boardwalk (approximately 34 m2), removal of concrete stairs accessing the foreshore and replacement with a smaller set of flagstone steps (bordered by a dry stack wall) and native plantings. Proposed native plantings will encompass a total area of 93m2 and will include 3 native trees and 62 native shrubs

Form 1 Page 3 of 20

Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmen... Page 121 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.B. FORM 1 Riparian Areas Regulation - Qualified Environmental Professional - Assessment Report

(detailed on the Landscape Plan attached as Appendix B). In addition, the proposed works includes planting out of the SPEA with non-native plants. The existing dock will also be removed and reconstructed along the eastern side of the subject property, below the HWL.

Timelines

Timelines for the completion of the project are dependent upon permitting and approvals from the District of Peachland and the Province. Ecoscape understands that the Development Permit (DP) application process typically ranges between 4-6 weeks, and the contractor will begin works as soon as the appropriate approvals are in place. It is our understanding that the pool construction and restoration works will not take more than approximately 6 months.

Riparian Condition

The riparian vegetation at the subject property consisted predominantly of turf with ornamental shrubs including cedar species (Photo 2).

The subject property occurs along Okanagan Lake Foreshore Inventory and Mapping (FIM) Segment 272 and is described as coniferous forest with a high level of impact (Schleppe, 2010). Land use at the time of the FIM survey was described as single family with disturbance occurring over 80% of this 495 m segment (Schleppe, 2010). The shore type along the segment is described as a gravel and substrates in the nearshore area were reported as 45% gravel, 50% sand and 5% boulder, while the littoral zone width was documented as moderate (10-50m) (Schleppe, 2010). The dock density along this segment was documented at a density of 20.2 docks/km (Schleppe, 2010). The FIM description is generally consistent with the condition of the subject property, although the subject property is largely landscaped and does not consist of coniferous forest. The condition of the riparian area of the subject property is generally consistent with properties to the north and south. During the site visit, the foreshore substrates at the subject property were recorded as 25% gravel and 75% sand (Photo 5).

Fisheries Values

Kokanee (Oncorhynchus nerka) are the fish species of primary management concern with respect to shoreline development and aquatic habitat alteration along Okanagan Lake. A review of zoning information for Okanagan Lake, as of November, 2012, revealed that the majority of the subject property is located within a Provincial foreshore protocol No Colour Zone, (BC MoE, 2009) (Figure 1). The No Colour Zone indicates that there has been no recent or historic observed kokanee shore spawning activity within this area (BC MoE, 2009).

The subject property is located approximately 2.9 kilometres from the nearest documented kokanee shore spawning location; this was recorded as being an area with approximately 400 shore spawning kokanee in 1979 (BC MoE, 2012).

The current Aquatic Habitat Index (AHI) rating along this shoreline segment is described as low with the potential AHI rating described as moderate (Schleppe, 2010). The AHI criteria described juvenile rearing potential as moderate, with no migration or staging occurring

Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmen... Page 122 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.B. FORM 1 Riparian Areas Regulation - Qualified Environmental Professional - Assessment Report

(Schleppe, 2010). While shore spawning kokanee have not previously been documented along the subject property, substrates may provide suitable spawning, foraging and general living habitat for a number of fish species. Table 1 details the fish species documented to occur in Okanagan Lake.

Comments The RAR utilizes a number of factors to determine setbacks based on the site potential vegetation type (SPVT) including large woody debris (LWD), bank and channel stability, shade and litter fall and insect drop. As determined during the site visit, the SPVT for the subject property is “Treed”. The resulting zone of sensitivity (ZOS) for LWD, bank and channel stability is 15 metres. The ZOS for litter fall and insect drop for lakes with a SPVT of treed is 15 metres. The shade setback for lakes with a SPVT of treed is 30 metres offset due south. The greatest or most conservative zone of sensitivity offset results in the SPEA. In this case, the specified SPEA width equals 15 m from the present natural boundary of Okanagan Lake. The ZOS and SPEA are shown on Figure 2.

In addition, the proposed works involves restoration through removal of hardscaping and planting of native plants and some deciduous trees (Douglas maple) within the SPEA that will result in an improvement to the natural condition of the SPEA.

I, Angela Cormano, hereby certify that: a. I am a qualified environmental professional, as defined in the Riparian Areas Regulation made under the Fish Protection Act; b. I am qualified to carry out this part of the assessment of the development proposal made by the developer, Perry and Jackie Shivak ; c. I have carried out an assessment of the development proposal and my assessment is set out in this Assessment Report; and In carrying out my assessment of the development proposal, I have followed the assessment methods set out in the Schedule to the Riparian Areas Regulation 5. Encroachment The majority of the proposed works occur outside of the SPEA, this is with the exception of minor regrading, removal of a wooden boardwalk (approximately 34 m2), removal of concrete stairs accessing the foreshore and replacement with a smaller set of flagstone steps (and bordered by a dry stack wall) and native plantings. The proposed works are detailed in the Landscape Plan

Form 1 Page 9 of 20

Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmen... Page 129 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.B. FORM 1 Riparian Areas Regulation - Qualified Environmental Professional - Assessment Report

(Appendix B). Plantings include a total of 3 native trees and 62 native shrubs over an area of 93m2 within the SPEA and additional non-native plantings occurring out of the SPEA. Due to the removal of existing hardscaping within the SPEA and proposed native plantings within the SPEA and additional plantings at the site, it is considered that upon completion of the proposed works there will be an overall net gain in habitat condition within the SPEA resulting in an improvement to the natural conditions at the subject property.

The following details recommendations for the proposed plantings:

 Temporary irrigation should be installed, with watering occurring for the first 2 growing seasons, until plants are established. Hand watering and drip irrigation are both acceptable methods. Care should be taken during watering to ensure that overland flows do not result in sedimentation to Okanagan Lake.

 A survival criteria of 80% of the native plants over a 2 year period should be required. Plant stock grown within the Thompson-Okanagan region and grown from seed found within the region (i.e. local source) is recommended to help facilitate and promote plant growth and survival.

 Any tree removals within the SPEA are subject to tree replacement criteria, and compensation plantings would be required. However, there are no mature trees currently within the SPEA.

 Upon the completion of the proposed works, invasive plant species should be removed from any disturbed areas and the SPEA. Given the proximity to Okanagan lake, chemical pesticides/herbicides and fertilizers should not be used. Furthermore, it is recommended that invasive species are pulled by hand.

 Any changes to the attached landscape plan (Appendix B) must be reviewed and approved by Ecoscape prior to implementation.

I, Angela Cormano, hereby certify that: a. I am a qualified environmental professional, as defined in the Riparian Areas Regulation made under the Fish Protection Act; b. I am qualified to carry out this part of the assessment of the development proposal made by the developer, Perry and Jackie Shivak; c. I have carried out an assessment of the development proposal and my assessment is set out in this Assessment Report; and In carrying out my assessment of the development proposal, I have followed the assessment methods set out in the Schedule to the Riparian Areas Regulation 6. Sediment and Erosion Control The following recommendations address minimizing the potential for the introduction of deleterious substances to Okanagan Lake. These recommendations must be adhered to throughout all stages of the proposed works at the subject property including restoration plantings.

 The 15 m SPEA boundary must both be marked in the field by a land surveyor and clearly delineated in the field prior to initiating construction works. Snow fence, flagging or a similar, suitable barrier must be installed along the length of the setback throughout the duration of construction and restoration works. This will ensure that no unnecessary encroachment/disturbance occurs within the setback. It is understood that works will be occurring within the SPEA, however, delineation of the setback should be provided.

 The release of fine sediments, concrete-laden water or other substances deleterious to the environment (e.g., gasoline) must be prevented.

Form 1 Page 10 of 20

Development Permit DP13/10,003 for work within an environmen... Page 130 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.B. FORM 1 Riparian Areas Regulation - Qualified Environmental Professional - Assessment Report

 Silt fence/filter fabric must be installed between the proposed works and Okanagan Lake, it is recommended that the silt fence is installed immediately adjacent to limit of disturbance (along the top of the existing concrete retaining wall). Silt fence is required to mitigate the risks to aquatic resources associated with runoff and sediment transport. Silt fence must be staked into the ground and trenched a minimum of 15 centimetres to prevent flow underneath the fence and must remain taut to prevent material from moving over the fence. Silt fencing should contain sufficient storage capacity to collect runoff and sediment deposition during storm events. Ongoing monitoring and maintenance of the silt fence must occur on a regular basis to ensure adequate function.

 All construction debris must be kept outside of the 15 m SPEA and should be removed from the property on a regular basis.

 Stockpiling of fill material within the 15 m SPEA must not occur. Any fill material, if required for construction, must be located outside of the SPEA beyond the silt fence. If material will be stockpiled near or adjacent to the SPEA for an extended period of time, it may need to be covered with polyethylene sheeting or a similar material to prevent the stockpile from eroding and carrying sediment laden runoff into the lake.

 Ensure that on-site machinery is in good operating condition, clean, and free of leaks, excess oil or grease. No equipment refueling or servicing should be undertaken within 30 m of Okanagan Lake.

 Spill containment kits should be kept readily available if any equipment (ie. excavator) is used during construction in case of the accidental release of a deleterious substance to the environment. The number of spill kits on site will be dependent on the amount of machinery. Any spills of a toxic substance of a reportable quantity as defined by the Spill Reporting Regulation should be immediately reported to the Provincial Emergency Program 24 hour hotline at 1-800-663-3456 and the District of Peachland.

 Sediments, debris, concrete, concrete fines, or wash water associated with pouring of the concrete must not come into contact with Okanagan Lake or be discharged within the 15 m SPEA. The concrete cast in place must remain inside sealed formed structures until cured and any runoff associated with cast in place concrete must be controlled so that it does not flow into the lake.

 Equipment and tools used in construction must be washed off site away from any watercourses. Concrete waste water must not be washed into any watercourse or the storm water system (i.e. must not be poured in a location that drains into municipal catch basins and subsequently into watercourses).

 No beach grooming, addition of sand, removal of cobbles/boulders, or removal of riparian vegetation should occur at any time. No dredging or placement of fill below the lake high water level (343 m geodetic) should occur at any time.

7. Stormwater Management There will be no change to the discharge of stormwater to Okanagan Lake from the proposed works. However, it is critical to note that there should also be no discharge of pool water to Okanagan Lake. Alternatively, pool water must be de-chlorinated, prior to a slow release to a vegetated area in order to avoid the potential for surface runoff entering Okanagan Lake or erosion within the SPEA.

I, Angela Cormano, hereby certify that: a. I am a qualified environmental professional, as defined in the Riparian Areas Regulation made under the Fish Protection Act; b. I am qualified to carry out this part of the assessment of the development proposal made by the developer, Perry and Jackie Shivak; c. I have carried out an assessment of the development proposal and my assessment is set out in this Assessment Report; and In carrying out my assessment of the development proposal, I have followed the assessment methods set out in the Schedule to the Riparian Areas Regulation 8. Floodplain Concerns (highly mobile channel) The major proposed works will occur above the active floodplain elevation of Okanagan Lake, and therefore, floodplain concerns are not applicable.

Section 5. Environmental Monitoring

An environmental monitor (EM) should be retained to be on site to document compliance with proposed mitigation measures and to provide guidance during the proposed works adjacent Okanagan Lake, particularly in reference to the implementation of erosion and sediment control measures. In the event that greater disturbance occurs due to unforeseen circumstances, the EM should recommend further measures to protect/restore the natural integrity of the site. The environmental monitor should also document the substantial completion of the project and provide a brief report to the client and District of Peachland for their records.

The monitor’s duties and schedule would include, as a minimum, the following:

1. Pre-construction meeting prior to the implementation of works. During this visit, best management practices and erosion and sediment control measures will be reviewed.

2. Visits should be conducted monthly during construction and will target higher risk activities. The EM should be notified prior to concrete works associated with the pool construction, so they can schedule site visits accordingly. The EM should also be contacted prior to initiating landscaping to review plant species and placement prior to implementation.

3. Environmental monitoring reports will be generated for each visit and submitted to District of Peachland; submission to Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations will occur if necessary.

4. Following completion of the project, a substantial completion report will be prepared. The District of Peachland may wish to ensure completion of monitoring by collection of a monitoring or performance bond and may wish to include this schedule as a condition of their development permit to ensure that these activities are carried out.

District of Peachland Request for Decision

To: Mayor & Council From: Planning and Development Services Department, Paul Dupuis, Planning Technician Date: April 15, 2013 Subject: Beach Ride Rental Company – Mobile Vendor

Recommendation: THAT Council approve entering into a 3 year Licensing and Encroachment Agreement for the use of the location at the corner of 13th Street and Beach Avenue with the Beach Ride Rental Company in accordance with the District’s Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267; and,

THAT Council approve the temporary placement of a trailer at the mobile vending location (13th Street and Beach Avenue) in accordance with the attached drawings for a temporary period of 1 year; and,

THAT Council direct staff to provide a report assessing the the proposal and it’s outcomes after the 2013 mobile vending season.

Chief Administrative Officer’s Comments:

I support the recommendations:______

Implications of Recommendation:

General: The Beach Ride Rental Company will provide services to tourists via the mobile vending location at the corner of 13th Street and Beach Avenue.

Organizational: N/A

Financial: A monthly fee will be paid by the proponent to the District in accordance with the Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267($300 per month + applicable taxes).

Policy: Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267

Strategic Plan: N/A

BACKGROUND: The Beach Ride Rental Company has provided rental services within Peachland at the corner of 13th Street and Beach Avenue for 2 years. In 2011, District Council approved an application for

Beach Ride Rental Company – Mobile Vendor Page 145 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.C.

the use of the site through the Seasonal Business Concessions Policy FIN-190. In the Spring of 2012 Council approved a Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267 which allows for both mobile and food vending services to be located within Peachland at specified locations. The Beach Ride Rental Company signed a Licensing and Encroachment Agreement for operation of the site in accordance with the Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267 for the 2012 tourist season.

District Staff had a pre-application meeting with the proponent of the Beach Ride Rental Company on Wednesday, February 27, 2013. The meeting was to discuss a proposal for a trailer to be put at the site on a semi-permanent (May 1st to October 31st) basis for the mobile vending season(s). In addition the proponent expressed that there is interest in procuring the longest term licensing and encroachment agreement available as found within the Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267 (3-years).

Staff received a formal application for the proposed works on April 4, 2013. The proponent’s application includes a letter to Council, a letter of support for the operation from a Gateway resident and design drawings for the area including representation of the location of the trailer and how the trailer will look (the painting of the trailer). The application is attached to this report.

DISCUSSSION:

The Beach Ride Rental Company has been an ideal vendor and has been very responsible in the operation of the services provided over the past 2 years. The site is orderly and well kept. Moreover, the proponents are reliable and provide services on a daily basis, weather permitting. To date there have been no formal complaints regarding the operations at the site. In fact, staff has received mostly positive feedback from both business and residents regarding the operations over the past 2 years.

The proposal calls for a 29ft long trailer (Full Size – usable space = 212 ft²) to be placed at the mobile vending site. The applicant has expressed that it would be preferable if the trailer could be left at the site on a semi-permanent basis. A number of factors have been considered relating to the application. These include:

Assessment of the proposal in relation to the Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267 Impact on site maintenance (Public Works) Impact on view and site lines.

Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267

As noted the trailer proposed is 24 ft. long and will have a total square footage of 192 ft². The policy currently states under Section D Mobile and Food Vendors,

“4. Mobile and food vending carts must not exceed 1.5m (5 ft) in width and 1.8m (6 ft) in length.”

Due to the size of the site being used and the fact that it is not located on the Beach where views may be impacted staff is of the opinion that allowing the trailer will have minimal impact compared to the use that has been occurring over the past 2 years. Therefore, to facilitate this request an amendment has been made to the policy whereby a Subsection under Section D has been created for the location at 13th and Beach Avenue that specifies that a trailer of the size proposed may be used on the site. (See attached policy – with amendment).

Another aspect of the proposal that must be considered in relation to the policy is the display of graphics on the trailer (signage). In essence the painting of the trailer does become a form of signage for the Beach Ride Rental Company. For this reason this aspect of the proposal must be

Beach Ride Rental Company – Mobile Vendor Page 146 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.C.

assessed in relation to both the Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267 and Sign Bylaw No. 1853, 2007. Sign Bylaw No. 1853, 2007 states under Part 15 – Prohibited Signs,

“15.14 Signs attached to or located on any vehicle or trailer parked on a public right-of-way or public property or on private property so as to be visible from a public right-of-way which provide advertisement or products or directs people to a business or an activity on the same lot or on any other lot.”

Although, this may be the case within the Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy under Section D Mobile and Food Vending it states,

“14. All signs advertising the sale of goods or services must be an integral part of the vending cart/mobile vehicle.”

Therefore, this becomes somewhat of a grey area in terms of this proposal. The depicted graphics as shown by the proposal of signage to be painted on the trailer is an integral part of the vending cart/mobile vehicle.” The intent of the sign bylaw is to stop signage from being mobile throughout the District thereby making it difficult to regulate. The District through the policy has a position that signage as part of the vending vehicles is an integral part of doing business in the leased areas as delineated. In this case, it is staff’s opinion that the proposed signage as part of the trailer is in accordance with the intent of both the policy and the bylaw and for this reason should be considered by Council for approval.

Impact on Site Maintenance (Public Works)

The applicant has expressed willingness to pay for any costs that may be incurred to make the site available for the use of the trailer as proposed. Through discussion with Public Works it has been found that the sprinklers may have to be diverted but that this could be easily done and at relatively low cost. In addition, if the trailer is to be parked semi-permanently it was suggested that to minimize the need to move the trailer for lawn maintenance either a concrete pad or concrete pavers may need to be installed. Therefore, based on these discussions with Public Works it is staff’s recommendation that the sprinklers be re-routed at the cost of the applicant and that arrangements be discussed with the applicant regarding installation of some form of base for the trailer. If approved by Council the applicant and Public Works will work closely to assess the needed improvements and the applicant will pay the costs of any proposed works as agreed upon by the applicant and the Director of Operations. It must be noted that the applicant will also be responsible for the cost of remediation of the site in the event that this may not be supported by Council in the future. For this a security deposit in addition to the $200.00 within the policy will be requested from the applicant. This security deposit for remediation will be set by the Director of Operations.

Impact on View and Site Lines

The proposal for the site shows that the trailer will be placed just in front of an existing garage on the adjacent property. This placement minimizes the impact on the view. Moreover, the trailer is placed far enough from the intersection so that traffic safety is not a concern. It is staff’s recommendation that the placement of the trailer in the location specified be approved since the impact on view and site lines has been minimized.

Other Discussion:

As previously noted the vendor has been responsible in the maintenance and operation of the specified site over the past 2 years. The applicant in conjunction with this proposal has asked that they be granted a 3-year Licencing and Encroachment Agreement the longest term allowable under the Sidewalk and Right of Way Occupancy Policy PRO-267. It is staff’s recommendation

Beach Ride Rental Company – Mobile Vendor Page 147 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.C.

that the District enter into this term with the applicant. This provides certainty for both the District and the applicant in relation to their business operations. However, staff also suggests that the proposal currently put forth to Council only be granted on a 1 year temporary basis. This will allow for an assessment at the end of the season as to whether or not Council is pleased with the outcome of the proposal as recommended by staff. If it is found that Council is pleased with the outcomes, then staff will amend the agreement in 2014 to extend the proposal for the additional 2 years of the agreement term. Therefore, staff will provide a report to Council at the end of the mobile vending season October 31, 2013 (report early in 2014).

Consideration of Options:

1) That Council approve entering into a 3 year lease with a provision for the temporary 1 year placement of a trailer as proposed by the applicant. Staff will provide a report re- assessing the placement of the trailer at the end of the 2013 mobile vending season (Recommended) The particulars of staff’s recommendation have been provided herein. The Beach Ride Rental Company has been a responsible vendor and provides quality service within the District. There have been no formal complaints regarding the applicants operations over the past couple of years. It is staff’s recommendation that the proposal be granted for a temporary one year term and that the outcomes of the proposal be revisited at the end of the season for consideration of Council in 2014.

2) Council denies the proposal as put forth by the Beach Ride Rental Company (Not Recommended) Based on the proposal as assessed and the operational history of the applicant it is not recommended that Council deny the proposal. Staff has suggested a temporary one year term so that the proposal and its outcomes can be re-assessed and Council can make a decision relating this issue again in 2014.

3) Council may revise the proposal to address things of concern (Not Recommended) Council may wish to revise the proposal to address concerns that Council may have regarding the proposal. Staff has recommended a one year temporary term so that Council may re-assess this proposal at the end of the 2013 mobile vending season. With a report expected back to Council in early 2014.

District of Peachland Request for Decision

To: Mayor & Council From: Dave Smith, Director of Planning and Development Services Date: April 12, 2013 Subject: Renewable Energy Opportunities Study Recommendation: THAT the Renewable Energy Opportunities Study dated April 15, 2013 be adopted by the District of Peachland; and, THAT the report also be forwarded to the Mayor’s Task Force on Climate Change for their information and recommendations.

Chief Administrative Officer’s Comments:

I support the recommendations:______

Implications of Recommendation:

General: The final Morrison Hershfield report highlights those renewable technologies that the District may wish to pursue in furthering energy reduction and GHG reduction in the District. Hydropower is not considered feasible in this report.

Organizational: N/A

Financial: The Morrison Hershfield Study was paid for by Gas Tax Funding and was not a cost to the municipal tax base. If the District decides to pursue alternate / clean energy options, there may be short term municipal costs required, but substantial energy cost savings will accrue over the long term, in addition to anticipated reductions in GHG emissions and energy consumption. Policy: This study will supplement a number of District Bylaws including the OCP, CEEP and Water Master Plan and Municipal policies. Strategic Plan: N/A

BACKGROUND: History April 2012 the District was successful in receiving $36,000.00 Gas Tax grant funding for the Alternative Energy Opportunities Study. The study was funded 100% by grant funding.

May/June 2012 the Terms of Reference (TOR) for the study were on the agenda of the MTFCC, and were reported on and discussed at 2 MTFCC meetings. A

Morrison Hershfield Renewable Energy Opportunities Study Page 167 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.D.

Request for Proposals (RFP) followed. The Study was to look at the “high level feasibility” of renewable energy technologies and if they are feasible within Peachland context.).

July 2012 Morrison Hershfield Ltd. was chosen as the most appropriate proposal from 16 submissions based on the TOR criteria as set out in the RFP and as assessed by staff.

September 4, 2012 Urban Systems Ltd. presented the Peachland Lake Direct Transmission Main Conceptual Study to Committee of the Whole. Main emphasis of the study related to water supply issues and deferral of a filtration plant in water treatment, although there was reference to the transmission line having the potential for hydropower potential. This report was considered by Morrison Hershfield as part of their research.

October 29, 2012 Morrison Hershfield presented their preliminary findings to the Mayor’s Task Force on Climate Change on October 31, 2012. The preliminary analysis suggested the micro-hydro generation would not be cost effective. This professional opinion varies from the opinion expressed in the Urban Systems Ltd.

March 12, 2013 Council passed a resolution stating;

“THAT Morrison Hershfield be requested to proceed with the completion of the Renewable Energy Opportunities Study (Option 1).

THAT upon completion of the Renewable Energy Opportunities Study, that Council considers whether or not to proceed with a more detailed feasibility study respecting a Hydropower project on Peachland Creek.”

April 12, 2013 After a discussion with Urban Systems Ltd., the following process was forwarded respecting reviewing the potential for a micro-hydro energy proposal in Peachland:

Urban Systems review of raw water pipeline per micro- $1,200 hydro energy potential

Joint round table meeting between District, Urban $3,200 Systems Ltd. ($1,600) and Morrison Hershfield Ltd. (($1,600) Council workshop session $5,000 TOTAL COST $9,400

DISCUSSION:

The Alternate Energy Opportunity Study included a thorough and professional analysis of all alternative energy alternatives. This will be of considerable assistance to Council and the Mayor’s Task Force on Climate Change in moving forward. Areas of the study included: - Geo-exchange - Solar Hot Water - Solar PV - Biomass

Morrison Hershfield Renewable Energy Opportunities Study Page 168 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.D.

- Wind Power - Hydro Power - District Energy considerations - Heat demand - Business models and funding considerations Geo-exchange and Biomass were identified as having the most apparent feasibility at this time. Any options to be pursued will need to have further research and analysis undertaken and a more detailed business case formulated. It is recommended the study be received by Council. With respect to the research, analysis and recommendation on the feasibility of a micro-hydro energy project, staff had a discussion with Urban Systems Ltd. on the subject and a proposal was put forward which would cost $9,400. It is suggested this be referred back to the Mayor’s Task Force on Climate Change for further analysis and recommendations to Council.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The District of Peachland retained Morrison Hershfield in collaboration with JDQ Engineering and the Community Energy Association to carry out screening level analyses of potential renewable energy sources that could contribute to the District’s greenhouse gas reduction commitments. Adoption or renewable energy sources in both existing and new developments may provide many other community benefits including: local economic development, potential new revenue streams for the municipality, local capacity building in the renewable energy field, energy security, insulation from fluctuating fuel prices, and community recognition.

The scope of the study included three heat production sources: geoexchange, solar thermal, and biomass; and, three electrical production sources: wind, run of river hydro, and solar photovoltaic.

For thermal energy technologies, five heat/cooling demand scenarios were developed to characterise the resource requirements and economics at various scales and applications. The scenarios include future developments planned within the District and provide reference points for the financial comparison among renewable technology options for similar developments. Three of the scenarios were for single buildings, while two were for district heating applications.

Thermal Energy Scenarios Scenarios Single-Family Multi-Family Commercial Mixed-Use 6th Street District Heating Cluster District Heating Description Detached House 5-Storey, 40 3-Storey Office 3 Multi-Family Community Unit Building & 2 Commercial Centre, 50+ Condominium Centre, Old Primary School, New Seniors Housing Total Floor Space (m2) 210 3,500 2,000 14,500 13,700 Total Annual Heating 69 1,150 428 4,310 4,800 Load (GJ) Total Annual Cooling 19 284 230 1,310 1,220 Load (GJ)

The technology assessments of each energy source follow a sequential framework that builds the basis for the rating summary presented at the end of each technology assessment section. Technical and economic feasibility of the technologies is assessed both under current conditions and through sensitivity analyses, potential future conditions related to energy purchase price, fuel source price, and capital grant incentives or price reductions as technologies mature.

Morrison Hershfield Renewable Energy Opportunities Study Page 170 of 181 AGENDA ITEM # 9.D.

Technology Assessment Framework

The technology assessments show that the greatest renewable energy opportunities within the District from a resource perspective are geoexchange, solar thermal, biomass and solar PV. Nearby wind study areas by independent power producers could provide the District with an opportunity to support such projects and obtain economic benefits such as employment, and secondary benefits to the retail and service industries. However, wind and hydro power generation within the District were found to be limited from a resource perspective and therefore, did not proceed further in the financial analysis.

Based on the current economic assumptions, geo-exchange and biomass (particularly the proposed new Seniors Complex Building) offer the best economic viability; however, both solar thermal and solar PV could provide positive business cases if their capital costs continue to decline or if new incentive programs become available. Potential greenhouse gas emission savings were also quantified for all technologies and scenarios. The total greenhouse emissions displaced depends on how widely these technologies are adopted. Generally, renewable energy heating projects yield greater greenhouse gas savings since the emission factor of natural gas is eight times greater per unit of energy displaced than the same unit of primarily hydro powered BC Hydro grid electricity.

The business case for heating technologies (geoexchange, solar thermal, and biomass) is compared with natural gas heating systems. With natural gas prices at almost historically low levels, the overall competitiveness of alternatives to natural gas is reduced. Expansion of markets for North American natural gas could increase the future price of gas thus improving the business case for the alternatives assessed. For both geoexchange and biomass, the economic viability of the projects increases with scale.

The business case for electrical generation projects is hindered by the relatively low prices offered by BC Hydro through energy purchase agreements and net metering. Given the high costs of any new generation technology, prices offered for power could become attractive in the near future which could make solar PV more viable.

Capital costs of solar PV panels have reduced so significantly that installation costs now have a dominating impact on the business case. These costs however, could provide value added benefits through local employment and could also be potentially reduced through collaboration with local colleges or organizations such as contractors within the community.

The report also includes an assessment of project implementation paths and case studies from 14 municipal renewable energy projects. They provide the following key lessons learned: . Conserve energy first; innovate second. . Project and utility developers emphasized the importance of leadership, communication and accountability. Partnerships and good relationships between partners are critical. Project leads should stand firm on essential program elements; be flexible otherwise. . Local capacity and experience, including suppliers, are an advantage for any project. Local equipment suppliers can sometimes offer reduced prices. Local fuel sources lead to economic benefit; however ensuring that fuel sources are reliable is absolutely essential. . Do your homework, but do not overdo it. While feasibility studies are essential, they cannot predict everything. Several case study participants noted that both good and bad luck on timing had significant impacts on projects, particularly in relation to market downturns and upturns. . When dealing with multiple funding partners, hitting milestones during project development can be challenging. Subsidies and incentives have been essential to almost all projects profiled, however identifying relevant programs is difficult and programs tend to come and go. . Develop an informed, confident community, especially youth members. . Project scale affects both affordability of the system and extent of benefits. Scalability – the ability to expand a system in the future – should be taken into consideration. Often one successful project leads to another. Projected profits help increase comfort about risks. . Both developing and operating a system involves steep learning curves for staff. Local sources of expertise are a significant benefit. Setting customer rates is complex.

Based on the results of the assessment the following next steps for the District of Peachland were identified: . Champion public education in energy conservation and encourage and invest in energy efficiency both in building design and in urban planning to reduce both building and transportation energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. . Identify specific opportunities to pursue the most promising technologies identified in this report (biomass and geoexchange) and identify champions and partnerships to pursue the next stage – the feasibility study. The business case analysis suggests that the proposed Seniors Complex could offer the most financially viable renewable energy opportunity and is worth pursuing to a more detailed feasibility study. . Review the sequence of steps presented in Section 5.1 for developing a renewable energy project . Conduct a thorough analysis of the engineering, legal and economic viability of any projects the District chooses to pursue by itself or in partnership with other organisations. . Engage with other municipalities interested in renewable energy generation and collaborate in developing specific technology projects in each community to reduce costs and risk, and to encourage BC Hydro to provide energy purchase programs that are more suitable to encourage small scale municipal renewable energy projects < 50kW. . Confirm assumptions associated with the hydro generation opportunity. . Review bylaws and planning regulations such that they can facilitate the development of renewable energy technologies, particularly solar and district energy. . Explore utility company partnerships for proceeding with any district energy options, as they may pay feasibility study and all other costs (review governance and financing information in this report prior to making a decision). . Provide non-monetary incentives to encourage development of renewable energy systems within the district, e.g. through planning and policy measures. . Identify partnerships with Okanagan College to develop renewable energy projects such as solar thermal or solar power within the District. . Monitor funding opportunities and Energy Purchase Programs from FCM, SolarBC, FortisBC, and BC Hydro that would enhance the financial viability of a project. . Review the financial analyses in this report for specific technologies as economic conditions change to determine if economic viability improves. . Distribute report within the community to enhance overall understanding of the opportunities within Peachland and encourage their development.
