SEPTEMBER 19, 2011 COMMITTEE-OF-THE-WHOLE MEETING Page 3 11 of 219 THE CITY OF ROSSLAND REQUEST FOR COUNCIL DECISION

DATE September 21, 2011

TOPIC Rossland Radio Cooperative

PROPOSAL Location Change of Radio Tower and request for in-kind donation.

PROPOSED BY : Corporate Officer ======SUMMARY: Mr. Marty Cancilla, Rossland Radio Cooperative Director, presented to Council at the July 11, and September 19, 2011 Council Meetings requesting an in-kind donation of services to help relocate the radio tower to 1807 Columbia Avenue.

As previously reported, Staff have raised concerns about moving the tower to 1807 Columbia Avenue in respect to the condition and long term plans for the building and the esthetics of moving this tower close to a significant heritage site (Miners' Hall) and the downtown core. The Rossland Radio Cooperative lease for the building at 1807 Columbia Avenue expires February 28, 2013. Section C 10. of the Agreement speaks to improvements to the property.

At the July 25, 2011 Regular Council Meeting, Council requested the Radio Cooperative hold some type of public consultation to inform neighbours of the proposed plan. Two letters have been received from neighbours regarding the proposed move (attached).

STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Council deny the Ross/and Radio Cooperative's request to move the tower located at 2096 Second Avenue, with a grant in aid from the City of Ross/and, to 1807 Columbia Avenue.

OPTIONS AND ALTERNATIVES: 1. Council deny the Rossland Radio Cooperative's request to move the tower located at 2096 Second Avenue, with grant in aid using city labour and equipment, to 1807 Columbia Avenue. Council may also wish to approve the relocation without the grant in aid of equipment and labour. 2. Council approve the Rossland Radio Cooperative's request to move the tower located at 2096 Second Avenue, with grant in aid from the City of Rossland in the amount of $1,321, to 1807 Columbia Avenue. The Manger of Operations will move forward with the project.

BENEFITS, DISADVANTAGES AND NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Option 1: Denying the request will address the concerns brought forward by Staff regarding esthetics and the future plans for the building. The Manager of Infrastructure and Facilities has identified the building as no longer fiscally responsible to maintain. Council must also be mindful of Section 24 & 25 of the Community Charter - Restrictions on Providing Assistance. Denying the request may be viewed unfavorably by the volunteers that operate the Radio Cooperative. Option 2: Approving the request will see the Rossland Radio Cooperative being able to increase elevation of their antenna and help with signal strength and coverage, making their product more viable. This signifies long term use of the location and building which may not be the future direction and most productive use of this City property.

12 of 219 COSTS AND BUDGET IMPACT· REVENUE GENERATION : The estimated direct cost of labour and equipment associated with this request is $1,321.This will be reported in the annual grant in aid given to groups and organizations.

LEGISLATIVE IMPACTS, PRECEDENTS, POLICIES: The Rossland Radio Cooperative is a not for profit organization servicing the community. Council has in the past assisted other non-profit organization with similar grant in aid donations. Section 24 & 25 of the Community Charter address restrictions on providing assistance. ~- _J orate Offrcer rewed by Crty Manager

From: Craig Grimsrud Date: 23 September, 2011 9:05:53 AM PDT To: "Cancilla, Marty" Cc: Mayor Greg Granstrom , Rossland City Hall Subject: Relocating 17m Tower to Columbia Avenue

Dear Mr. Cancilla: Thank you for your notice and request for comment regarding the possibility of relocating a 17m radio tower to the Rotary Health Center on Columbia Ave. in Rossland.

My wife and I own and live in the house at 1808 Columbia Avenue directly across from the proposed site ofthe tower. Installation of the tower will negatively impact us as it will be in our line of sight as we view lower Rossland.

I believe your picture of the Rotary Health Center marked up with the proposed tower is misleading as it does not accurately reflect the actual height of the tower. The markup shows the tower to be approximately 5m tall, about twice as high as the Health Center's roof, when in fact the tower is 17m tall more than three times the height shown in the mark up. This is the issue that we have with your project. Because of the extreme height of the tower when we look south from any where from our front yard and the main floor of the house we will be looking directly at the tower, rather than an unimpeded view Lower Rossland and the mountains behind it. If in fact the tower was only as tall as shown in your marked up picture it would pose no issue for us.

Is there a possibility that the tower would be lighted? If this is the case it would further exacerbate the situation as the light would intrude upon our property.

From our point of view we would hope that the tower could be located at another site so that our view would not be compromised.

Yours sincerely. Craig and Patti Grimsrud 1808 Columbia Avenue (250) 362 7778

From: Scott Leyland [[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2011 1:05 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Tracey Butler Subject: Re placement of radio tower Attachments: Rossland Co-op Radio tower.jpg

Dear Marty and Tracey

Irene and I live next door (1815 Columbia) to the health unit building. We are supporters of the co-op radio and try to listen often. The current transmission situation means that generally we cannot get the signal, even when in our car going to/from Trail. We agree that for Rossland Radio to succeed, the tower needs to move.

We got the Co-op letter late last week, explaining the proposed site for the tower, then we measured and looked at the sight lines from our house. Unfortunately, the proposed location (where the current antenna is) would be in the middle of our upstairs view of Mount Roberts and Record Ridge. We have two alternate sites, that would not significantly impact our viewlines to the west.

Our first suggested alternative site; about 6 metres closer to Columbia Avenue, either side of the next window (closest to Columbia Avenue). This would put the tower about 6 metres (or less) from the Columbia Ave edge of the health building eave. Besides giving an extra metre elevation, because of the higher ground, it would be just north of our view of Mount Roberts, thus eliminating our concerns. We've checked the sightlines along Columbia Avenue both from the east (city side) and the west (miners hall side) and believe that the apartment to the east and the miners hall to the west would effectively block views of the tower for road and pedestrian traffic except when very close to the building itself.

Our second suggested alternative site; across the alley adjacent to the utility pole seen in the attached picture. This would be the best site, from our view. It would be essentially south of our view of Record Ridge, and although taller than the utility pole, it would be no less aesthetic than the current pole and lines are. Of note, the_pole is the last pole along that route, so placing the tower on the west side of the pole would not interfere with the utilities functions.

Thank you for considering our concerns and suggested alternatives, in planning for the tower placement. We look forward to better radio reception with the new site placement.

Sincerely, Scott and Irene Leyland

July 5 2011,

Dear Mayor and Council,

The Rossland Radio Cooperative would like to thank you again for the privilege of renting our new space on Columbia Ave. Notable developments of late include;

• Radio bingo, a successful spring event • Visit and interview with NDP MP Alex Atamanenko • Formation of a 'screen press committee' to put to use our newt-shirt silk screen press • Grant awarded from Columbia Power Corporation for the purchase of a new studio computer • Grant awarded from Columbia Basin Trust for the purchase of new broadcasting equipment • Grant awarded from Teck Metals inc. For the purchase of a new air conditioner to help keep our studio equipment cool.

Our next move is to change the location of our radio tower from 2"d Ave. (old police station, current home of K2 contracting) and place it beside our new location. This will increase elevation of our antenna and help with signal strength and coverage, making our product more viable.

We have;

• All necessary permissions from Industry Canada • Permission from Burke Jones, the owner of the building, to take and move this • Permission from K2 contracting to dig the footing for this tower and move it • An agreement with Jordy Hall (expert climber and lift maintenance person at Red Mountain, to help climb the tower and dismantle it prior to the move). • An agreement with Matt Williamson (licensed builder) to help with logistics and setting it up.

We are asking;

That the city of Rossland help us with an in-kind donation of their services to help dig the hole for the tower beside 1807 Columbia Ave., dig out the footing for the tower at the old location and move it to the proposed location.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Marty Cancilla, Rossland Radio Cooperative director.

27 of 219 THE CITY OF ROSSLAND REQUEST FOR COUNCIL DECISION

DATE: October 4, 2011

TOPIC: DRAFf ZONING BYLAW

PROPOSAL: THAT COUNCIL ADVANCE THE DRAFf BYLAW TO 1ST AND 2ND READING

AND FURTHER

THAT COUNCIL SCHEDULE A PUBLIC HEARING FOR NOVEMBER 14,2011

PROPOSED BY: Mike Maturo, MPDS

SUMMARY: Staff have presented a rough draft of the Zoning Bylaw to Council in July 2010 and since have incorporated input from Council (through several CoW meetings) and three Public Information meetings to create the current draft, the 15th. The draft bylaw is intended to facilitate advancement of some key OCP objectives, namely inf"Ill, housing diversity and limited settlement footprint and to generally align the zoning's land use regulations with the OCP's designations. The draft bylaw has also reduced the number of zones through consolidation, while harmonizing development regulations through introduction of building parcel coverage in zones (earlier without it) specif"Ically for the types and sizes of the permitted dwellings in most zones.

STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: THAT the City advance the Draft Zoning Bylaw by giving First and Second Readings to Bylaw# 2518

AND FURTHER

THAT the City schedule a Public Hearing for November 14, 2011

OPTIONS AND ALTERNATIVES: 1} THAT the City advance the staff recommendation. 2} THAT the City refer the item back to staff; staff have attended several Council COW meetings and held three Public Information Meetings to receive input and modify the Draft Zoning bylaw. 3} THAT the City not give First and Second Readings to the bylaw.

BENEFITS, DISADVANTAGES AND NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Option 1: Advancing the staff recommendation would set the public hearing, which in turn allows the City an opportunity to hear further from the public. Staff have held three Public Information Sessions and met with Council several times to go over specific elements of the bylaw in detail. The bylaw has also undergone a legal review. Council always has the option to amend the bylaw after adoption as new issues appear.

Option 2: Referring the bylaw back to staff for further review would present a delay in adopting the bylaw. The Public Hearing should provide Council an opportunity to receive additional input from the Public. Council always the option to extend the bylaw's adoption process. 28 of 219 Option 3: Denying the bylaw First and Second Readings and not scheduling a Public Hearing would delay the bylaw's eventual adoption.

COSTS AND BUDGET IMPACTS - REVENUE GENERATION: The proposed adoption of the bylaw should not incur significant administrative or operational costs: the bylaw is designed to facilitate a higher number of taxable dwellings within areas already serviced.

LEGISLATIVE IMPACTS, PRECEDENTS, POLICIES: Municipalities have the authority to regulate the lands within their boundaries as per the Local Government Act, Section 26, Division 7, (903) (1}- (7), Zoning and Other De•tJfJ)_"'Q·· /( ~ De~ment Head "'-' Revieled by City Manager

A. ANALYSIS:

In early 2009, the city contracted Halcrow Consulting to assist with developing a new zoning bylaw which is now being brought forward to the City for review. By the end of that year the city had received a Draft Zoning bylaw designed to advance the policies of the (2008 adopted) OCP toward its overall objectives. The draft zoning bylaw is intended to facilitate implementation of the stated OCP policies through land use regulations. Rossland's three key bylaws for land development are its Zoning bylaw, Building bylaw and Subdivision and Servicing bylaw. The drafted zoning bylaw, if adopted, introduces new land use regulations that will likely prompt changes to these other two bylaws; the current Zoning Bylaw, # 1912, adopted in 1999, would be rescinded. The proposed draft bylaw both modifies and retains critical features of the existing bylaw, but also introduces new definitions and regulations.

----Staff earlier presented to Council some of the more problematic sections of the existing zoning bylaw in early 2008, leading to the following amendments:

• Setbacks were reduced from 7 metres to 4 metres front and from 7 metres to 2 metres rear. • Secondary suites became a permitted use throughout Ross land, no longer requiring a re-zoning • Parking requirements for secondary suites reduced from two stalls to one • Building parcel coverage for lots with secondary suites was increased to 35% • Minimum lot size for duplex dwellings was reduced to 550 sq. metres though duplexes still require a re-zoning

The draft zoning bylaw continues the pattern established by the earlier 2008 amendments and facilitates advancement of key OCP policies promoting limited settlement footprint, compact development with growth boundary and increased housing diversity.

The following offers a summary of the specific changes proposed:

• R-1 lnfill Zone, Permitting:

31 of 219 3

Reduced minimum lot size for subdivision within a defined area of the city from 550 sq.m./6000 sf to 275 sm/3000 sf

Allow house conversions to create up to 3 units within a detached dwelling (compliant with parking requirements and building code)

Allow Two-Family Detached Dwellings (Duplex) on 550 sm/6000 sf lots

• Max Height for Detached Suites located above garages is increased to 6 m

• Max Height for Dwellings on Small Lots, 275 - 550 sm. increases from 7 m to 8.5m

For lots measuring greater than 550 sm the height limit remains 10 m

• Building Parcel coverage is increased to 40% on lots measuring 278 - 550 sm

For lots greater than 550 sm the building surface coverage remains 35%

• Happy Valley

The area zoned for 5-acre minimum lot size for subdivision expands to the west side of Happy Valley Road up to Park St, and to/above Columbia- Kootenay Road, to align with the OCP designation for Happy Valley

Two-family detached dwelling (Duplex) is added as a Permitted use

Building Parcel coverage is introduced and defined for residential and accessory buildings

• P-4 Zoning - Resource extraction remains as the primary economic activity permitted in this zone. Residential dwellings have been removed as permitted uses from lands within the areas (lots) which are difficult for settlement due to a combination of steep terrain, mining hazards, lack of highway access and growth boundary objectives; many such lots are historical mining claims on Red Mountain. Residential dwellings in this area would also present difficulties for the city building inspector later through the absence of typical access for emergency vehicles, required by the BC Building Code. Development applications for these lands can be fielded on a case-by-case basis.

• Red Mountain Base Area

Major zoning changes took place earlier in 201 0-2011 on 3 large areas north of Red Mtn (Pinnacle Lands 20 ha, Caldera Lands - 20 ha. and O'Fianagan Lands- 18 ha.) introducing more specific regulations

32 of 219 4

to limit development impacts by reducing development footprints and in two cases - O'Fianagan and Pinnacle - greatly reducing allowable densities.

Similar changes to reduce development footprint have been made to the CD-2 Zone (Ash properties)

Building Parcel Coverage now appears in most base area zones

Setbacks from Topping Creek increase to 30m/100'

• Happy Valley- The west side of Happy Valley Road, below Park St., is proposed to change to Rural Residential zoning in order to align with the OCP. The steep terrain to the east of Happy Valley road does not easily accommodate R-1 zoning and if developed to R-1 capacity, would likely present the city costly servicing due primarily to the switchback roads that would likely be required. There are also complications to connect to city sewer requiring individual pumping systems; soil absorption capacities for septic systems normally require larger lots.

• Density- is defined as the number of principal dwelling units permitted on a parcel along with the Building parcel coverage, Parcel surface coverage and Floor Area Ratio.

• R-1 Dwelling, Multiple Conversion- up to three units can be created through the reconfiguration of floor space within a single family detached dwelling. Housing conversions may require additional parking spaces depending on the amount of floor space for each unit. Compliance with BC building sode and Rossland's building bylaw is also required.

• Off-grid Recreational Building: appearing throughout the back country and accessed primarily through non-motorized means, these structures facilitate "green" tourism and add to the tourist amenities. Rather than continue the city's traditional approach of treating these structures strictly as non-permitted uses, adopting a definition for them would be the first step toward regulating their construction and filling a regulatory void. Their regulated appearance in the backcountry could promote another form of low impact tourism.

• Grade definitions have been defined for both an Average and Finished garde to allow for increased clarity in hillside terrain

• Due to the grade formula Height can be more thoroughly defined

• Driveways are defined as fully permeable to semi permeable surfaces providing access to parcels.

33 of 219 5

• Parking requirements have been adjusted to reflect floor space, housing form, and number of sleeping units (for MFD). There has also been a reduction for required on-site parking in specific commercial areas.

• Sections of the Rail Grade (now used as a trail) in lower Rossland have been re-zoned from residential to parkland.

• Parkland zoning has two categories, one for areas featuring facility type recreational activities (fields near a school) and another for recreational activities within sensitive ecosystems (i.e. watershed areas)

• General Regulations have been thoroughly updated to ensure appropriate checks and balances for regulating development allowed by zoning.

B. Attachments: 1. Bylaw #2518

C. Policy COCP):

The draft Zoning Bylaw facilitates a number of OCP Objectives and Policies,

Policy COCP): Section 12 Growth Management 12.1 Objectives .1 To ensure the built environment is designed to make efficient use of land resources and limit sprawling development. .2 To ensure the community contains a wide range of housing types, shops, services and employment opportunities . .3 To ensure the built environment is integrated with natural features . .4 To encourage integration of resort areas with the traditional townsite. 12.2 Policies .2 Consider incentives, such as density bonusing and DCC credits for development occurring in existing infill sites that are vacant or underutilized . .3 Consider incentives for the reuse and adaptation of existing buildings . .4 Discourage development requiring further extension of municipal services . .5 Encourage a diverse mixture of housing types, shops and services in Rossland . .6 Encourage comprehensive development zoning where appropriate to provide for diverse housing types and uses . . 7 Encourage cluster developments which are designed to protect the natural features on the site, to minimize the on site footprint of the development and to minimize road lengths . . 10 Consider higher density developments anywhere in Rossland on a project by project basis considering the character and scale of adjacent uses, proximity to transit routes, public facilities and commercial nodes and traffic and parking impacts.

34 of 219 6

Section 13 Natural hazards and Constraints Background Rossland's central core of development lies in a rolling north-south tract of land that is bounded in all directions by ridges of the Rossland Range of the Monashee Mountains. The majority of Rossland's development occurs on land with slopes between one and ten percent and substantial amounts of development occur on slopes that are between ten and 30%. A large part of the city is characterised by steep slopes (>30%) that have limited development potential. These steep slopes, the past mining history and potential fire risk are hazards that must be considered prior to development. 13.1 Objectives .1 To integrate the built environment into the natural environment in a way that capitalizes on ecological functions and avoids or manages risks associated with natural and mining legacy hazards . .2 To reduce the risk of wildfire . .3 To raise awareness of wildfire hazards and identify the needs for mitigative action. 13.2 Policies .1 Development of areas with natural or manmade hazards, such as unstable slopes or flood plains shall be avoided . .2 Consider defining and adopting alternative street and development standards for hillside development on slopes greater than 15%. .3 Apply a precautionary approach to the protection of development from hazardous conditions, until further research more specifically identifies hazardous areas. All proposals in significant watershed areas or on lands with slopes in excess of 30%, shall be required to submit a report prepared by a qualified professional, prior to the removal of trees or slope alteration . .4 Develop a Community Wildfire Protection Plan to identify areas that pose the ___ greatest risk to the community. Use development Permit Area guidelines to mitigate the risk in these areas . .5 Examine strategies for the protection of development from wildfire through a Community Wildfire Protection Plan. Where appropriate, incorporate regulations for the development of defensible space, community and household firebreaks, appropriate building materials or other interface fire protection strategies into Development Permit Areas, Building Regulations, Land use and subdivision servicing bylaws . .8 Development on lands suspected to have previous mining activity may require a site investigation as per the Environmental Management Act and may require further mitigation.

Section 14 Natural Environment 14.2.2 Focus development in areas where it will pose the least interference with the natural environment.

Section 18 Housing and Residential Lands

35 of 219 7

18.1 Objectives .1 To ensure that all permanent residents and seasonal employees have access to healthy, liveable, and affordable housing and accommodation in Rossland . .2 To provide a variety of accommodation types, tenures, and sizes ensuring that residents of all ages and incomes have a diversity of market and non­ market housing choice . .3 To design and locate housing in such a way as to minimize long-term operating costs, infrastructure investments and environmental footprints. 18.2 General Policies .1 Establish a housing task force for Rossland with a mandate to research housing needs and work with stakeholders to implement solutions that will encourage a socioeconomic and demographic mix . .2 Develop non-market housing solutions for various demographic cohorts with consideration to age and income . .3 Encourage the development of a housing project to create seniors housing that is prioritized for local seniors moving out of single-family homes . .4 Encourage development that does not require extension of municipal services . .5 Encourage secondary suites provided the suite is registered with the City of Rossland; the property can conform to the parking and setback regulations set out in the City of Rossland Zoning Bylaw; the suite conforms to all building and fire codes; and the presence of a suite does not detract from the quality of life of nearby residents . .6 Encourage home based businesses where the use is deemed appropriate and not intrusive within the neighbourhood, is licensed and has adequate parking . . 7 Encourage Bed and Breakfast operations provided the facility is appropriately located, meets current regulations and bylaws and is not intrusive within the neighbourhood . .8 Support the use of City owned land to encourage the development of alternative housing . .9 Consider a policy for addressing the residential strata conversion of previously occupied buildings . . 10 Monitor growth of second home ownership and assess the long term impacts of second home ownership on the community . . 11 Encourage and support employee housing. 18.3 Residential Policies 1. The following policies apply to the lands designated as Residential on the attached Schedule B Land Use Map. 2. Encourage development that enhances and maintains Rossland's heritage. 3. Encourage higher density multi-family uses, especially nearest the Downtown Core and the Mid Town Neighbourhood Special Planning Area. 4. Ensure all new multi-family residential developments, including duplexes, are designated as a Development Permit Area to ensure new multi-family developments are compatible with the scale, character and heritage of existing residential neighbourhoods.

36 of 219 8

5. Encourage a wide range of housing types, tenures and organizational frameworks including ownership, lease, rental, strata title, side by side duplex and co-op housing. 6. Consider density bonusing or other development incentives in return for providing affordable or special needs housing or green buildings. 7. Neighbourhood commercial such as small scale cafes or pedestrian oriented retail services can be considered in any Residential Neighbourhood designation subject to the following: o A location near key intersections (i.e. intersection of two arterial roads or a collector and an arterial road) or on a major road; o Adjacent to other neighbourhood amenities such as parks or existing commercial uses; o Site design and building form and character that complements the adjacent residential neighbourhood; and, Appropriate zoning. 8. Allow the use of comprehensive development zones to allow a wider mix of uses and housing types. 9. Encourage cluster development to allow the protection of natural features on site, to minimize the on-site footprint of the development and to minimize road lengths. 10. Consider higher density developments anywhere in Rossland on a project by project basis. When reviewing rezoning proposals for multi-family residential development, the City shall consider the following criteria in determining the appropriateness of the development: o Walking distance to commercial, recreational, public/institutional centres, or parks; o Proximity to major collectors or arterial roads in order to reduce traffic impacts on local roads and facilitate transit service; o Adequacy of existing services; _ _ __ o Potential of1he proposed-development to provide a range of housing types and tenures that are suitable for seniors, households with low and moderate incomes, and persons with special needs; o An appropriate transition between lower density housing, and compatibility with adjacent land uses; o The range of densities and housing forms in the residential neighbourhood; o Aesthetic quality including massing, scale, building form, view and shadow impacts; o Protection of the proposed development from natural hazards; 11. Encourage infill housing in order to improve economic efficiency regarding municipal services and maintenance. To that end, support residential lots, in areas serviced by municipal water and sewer, in areas that can satisfy the requirements of the City of Rossland Subdivision and Servicing Bylaw and Zoning Bylaw. 12. The City of Rossland will pursue green building guidelines and incentives for all buildings, including residential and multiunit residential buildings. 13. lnfill (small lot) development in existing residential neighbourhoods may contrast with the character of the surrounding structures in terms of lot size, building massing, height, setbacks, form and character. To address this, the City

37 of 219 9 will consider creating a Development Permit Area (Intensive Residential) to further guide infill development. 18.4 Resort Residential Policies .1 The following policies apply to the lands designated as Resort Residential on the attached Schedule 8 Land Use Map . .2 Encourage development that supports and enhances resort recreation opportunities and experiences . .3 Encourage development that is clustered to promote protection of sensitive lands . .4 Encourage integration of alternate transportation methods such as walking, skiing and cycling, into the design of developments . . 5 Consider small scale commercial and hospitality uses that support and enhance the resort experience . .6 Ensure all new multi-family residential developments, including duplexes, be designated as a Development Permit Area to ensure new multi-family developments are compatible with the scale of the resort environment. .7 Support the establishment of small commercial nodes within the resort accommodations in order that resort visitors can shop for basic commodities without driving. 18.5 Rural Residential Policies .1 The following policies apply to the lands designated as Rural Residential on the attached Schedule 8 Land Use Map . .2 Permit development that can not be readily connected to municipal services providing the site can accommodate on site sewage disposal and provide potable water. .3 Require a minimum parcel size of 2 hectares (5 acres) within the Rural Residential area . .4 Require a report certified by a Qualified Practitioner, com etent in theufi'!'Sietl\

Section 21 Industrial Land 21.1 Objectives .1 To protect the limited amounts of land designated for Light Industrial from the encroachment of non-compatible land uses and to minimize conflicts between adjacent land uses . .2 To support the retention and establishment of Light Industrial to encourage a range of employment opportunities for existing and future residents of Rossland . .3 To ensure that the nature and design of any future industrial operations are such that the community's quality of life and environment are not adversely affected.

38 of 219 10

.4 To encourage industrial development that conserves energy, water, materials, and other resources . .5 To consider the potential for establishing an 'Eco-lndustrial Park' in collaboration with the surrounding region. 21.2 Policies .1 Create an Industrial Development Permit Area to ensure adequate screening and buffering of industrial uses from other uses. Protect the aesthetic quality of the community through appropriate landscaping, and building design, open space preservation and protection of view corridors and scenic areas from newly created Light Industrial developments. The Screening and Landscaping Buffers provision of the Zoning Bylaw should be applied to sites rezoned to Light Industrial. .2 Encourage new industries that are relatively clean and environmentally sensitive to locate within Rossland . .3 Encourage relocation of any industrial operations that may create land use conflicts with adjacent properties, such as the City Works Yard in the Third Avenue area . .4 Discourage industrial developments on the Cascade Highway site that are not fully serviced with water and sanitary sewer. .5 Ensure that industrial operations minimize potential negative impacts on ecological systems and processes and the urban environment, particularly with respect to air and water quality and noise and traffic levels . .6 Consider properties immediately outside the municipal boundary along the Old Cascade Highway for a boundary expansion and inclusion in the Light Industrial designation . .7 Consider development of a "Light Industrial Business Park" in the Old Cascade Highway area. The ultimate goal will be a comprehensively planned area of high aesthetic quality achieved through appropriate design g uidelin ~ and standards. - -- ·· .8 Protect the land designated Light Industrial along Cascade Highway for future industrial development and support an expansion of this zoning to the lands adjacent to that Light Industrial area . .9 Consider collaborating with neighbouring and regional governments to establish a regional supply of employment lands in close proximity to Rossland.

Asenda Items: 1. Jenn called meeting to order at 1:05pm 2. Adoption of Agenda- moved by Cary, 2"d by Anthony -passed 3. Adoption of Minutes- moved by libby, 2nd by Laura- passed

4. Presentation of Executive Report- Executive Director, Deanne Steven: • Deanne still thinks January's low figures are in error but Province claims they are correct. • Crankworks event in Whistler, biggest event of the year there. Nina passed out 200 maps. Cost to TR was $200 for Nina. Good value for money- terrific exposure. • Deanne met with Kootenay lake DMO and Queen City concerning 4 shuttles per week from Nelson-Rossland-Spokane. Break even is 4 passengers. Queen City will run shuttle provided we agree to pay difference between actual passengers and 4 passenger break even point. Need to have Nelson on board. Nelson has concerns about funding. TR will use RMI funding. Nelson needs to get buy-in from Whitewater and cat-ski operators. Cost will be $Sk to Rossland, $5k to Nelson. Still under discussion. • Sales of the Arts Heritage package with GFF, Museum and Steamshovel has been very slow. Issue appears to be that Steamshovel cannot accommodate kids. Package has strong appeal to families. Will review at end of season and adjust. • AHRT- has been submitted to-Province with a co~yto- the. city. Province advises. that this process will take time but should be completed by January (unless an election is called then all bets are off.) • BC Mountain Bike Economic Impact Survey with TBC- no cost to TR. User contact has been low due to weather. August is looking better, more riders on trails but worry that there may not be sufficient response to produce statistically significant results. Surveyors will be working the 7 Summits Poker run; should get lots of responses at that event. • Seniors' Games- Ross land is about 80% booked for the event. Will be a busy week. • Western Canadian Seniors Baseball tournament at end of August- put together accommodation packages for organizers. Sent to accommodators with sufficient capacity to handle teams. Team rosters may be up to 20 people. • Ski shows: Toronto, , Calgary, and others. Deanne will attend Toronto and Vancouver. Trying to maximize investment. Will book some ofthe Warren Miller shows too. Working closely with Red on these. Accommodator's packages are completed. Will share contact/prospect list generated from shows with participating accommodators. • Jenn and Deanne took a trip to Spokane to deliver bike map (and beer) to eight appropriate businesses. Made contact with REI (no beer accepted) and will participate in Sept 10th big bike event and Nov 12th winter event (Red will most likely be involved)

104 of 135

177 of 219 • TR annual report will be completed by August 26th. • Deanne has accepted a part-time position this winter with Selkirk College teaching on Tuesday afternoons. Her salary will reflect the reduced hours. • Welcome to Lifestyle Properties. They join the accommodators group (bringing the total to nine.)

5. Financial Review • If trend continues, revenues will be decreased by 10% for the year. But August should be really good and will make up some losses. • Postage costs were higher than usual due to mass mailing for Golden Ticket promotion. • HR higher because two students working on Trails survey project are listed here. Should be under "projects'' but this presents a technical challenge. Deanne is working on it. • Motion to adopt the August flnancials moved by Libby seconded by Anthony­ passed • Audited Year end flnancials for 2010 will be approved at the AGM on Sept 14th,

6. Resort Municipality Initiative report a. Submitted to city but pulled back so board could consider Hanne Smith's comments. Consensus was that report should be submitted without changes and that Deanne should respond to Hanne's concerns via email. (copying the board). This report and plan needs to be reviewed every year and revised. It is fine the way it was written- it is a living document, b. Discussion about the addition of the gazebo- Laura indicated it is meant to be a small thing; not something to detract from existing facilities such as the gazebo at the museum, but something to provide an entertainment space downtown for buskers etc. c. locating the Visitor Center downtown is a bigger question that needs to be addressed. Some complications are involved with moving it from the museum but the city, TR, the museum need to have the discussion about this. 7. Executive director contract a. Basics: i. Deanne's contract extended for 10 months (Until June 2012). Some small mostly typographical changes need to be made. ii. Allows for some unpaid time off In the winter to accommodate new part­ time teaching position. b. Motion to approve contract by Laura, second by Don 8. Accommodator's meeting a. Held In July. b. Discussed Red Mtn's proposal. Had some concerns which were communicated to Eric. Deanne will follow up with Eric when he returns from holidays. Concerns

105 of 135

178 of 219 around black out dates, booking date of Dec 1 is good for holidays but accommodators would like it extended for longer, how to handle administratively with ease: Simple is the goal. c. Deanne has done some research with other DMOs and suggests that Red's offer looks attractive. Whitewater offers 10%, Kicking Horse gives 4% d. Need to have approval soon so can get packages publicized by Sept 1, 2011. 9. Whitewater package with Rossland: two options: a. For TR, DMO i. For $780 we can be listed on their website. Better option: trade a listing on our site for one on theirs. We both have something to offer. Deanne given authority to negotiate this deal. b. For accommodators- i. At $65 per room this is quite expensive. ii. Will let individual accommodators work this out independently with Whitewater.

10. carry over business: a. Letter of response to Val Ash to be circulated electronically to the Board prior to the next meeting.

11. Adjournment 1:52pm

• Next meeting to be the AGM, Sept 14th, details to be announced.

For year the ending March 31$t 2011

Executive Summary

A strong year for accommodation revenue in 2010- our second best yet since we began tracking in 2006. Factors that may explain this are great snow and the shut down at Teck, several large ski races with Red Mountain Racers, Winter Carnival and Torch Relay, and the Haywood Noram Cross Country Ski Races. One change for this year Is that we changed our financial year end from June 31 11 to March 31 81 in order to allow us to better coordinate our budgeting process in association with some of our partners and government year's end. This means that for this year our financlals are based on only 9 months.

Tourism Indicators Based on the Additional Hotel Room Tax statistics Rossland had an increase of 18% In accommodation revenue 2010 ($2,615, 721) over 2009 ($2,21 0,398.50). Or an increase of 9.5% over the average of the previous 5 years.

111 of135

183 of 219 • The Club reports that they kept the after-tax day-pass price Identical to the last few years, meaning the club took a 7% hit this year due to the introduction of HST. Adding this 7% back in for comparative purposes, day pass revenue was 2% higher than the avg of the previous 3 years. Thus, similar total visitors as in previous years. • True day pass growth is masked by the 43% increase in membership (i.e. all the new season pass holders are no longer buying day passes). As a case in point, Rosslanders accounted for only 17% of day pass visits this season.

Day Pass vtaltor Hometowns:

The vast majority of visitors ski during the day when kiosk attendants are on duty, allowing them to capture hometown detals when they're purchasing their day pass (I.e. they write down their hometown when signing the waiver). Of these visitors, 6.1% either didn't write down their hometown or it was Illegible. Omitting this 6.1 %, here are aU the details:

Social Media This is also our second year of a concentrated Social Media campaign- and it il5.Q.Qil19 w~.!L By eogaging with people and providing them with interesting and timely Information we aim to entice more travellers. Additionally we monitor social media including many bike forums, ski forums and other sites. We try not to be too be too overtly "Tourism Rossland' and instead use the online persona of "Rosslander". Social Media is also quite attractive for us as a DMO as with our limited funding- it requires no additional project funding and can be done by the ED during normal working hours.

The Red Mountain Resort Association again Increased their contribution to $30,000 from $27,000. This long term funding continues to be a critical aspect of the organizations overall income. The funding is made up of contributions from Red Mountain Resort ($10,000) and the remaining from all property owners (condo owners, town home owners, single family residential owners and lot owners) who contribute if their property is located within the RRA's designated boundary

That the Design Review Panel recommend to approve the new signage for Kootenay Nordic Sports with the following recommendations:

Reduce the border width of the sign 1". Reducing the border width will enable the sign to be moved up slightly so that a line of bricks will be visible below the sign. This will help the framing of the sign on the building. May also want to try scalloping the corners of the sign like the inset to further define the sign.
