c w C.Laidlaw 2005 Synchronist Award Winners
"Profiling FastGrowthCompanies" Greater Louisville, Inc. Lisa Bajorinas
Greater Louisville, Inc.'s High Impact Portfolio Program is the 2005 winner for "Excellence in Urban or Suburban Economic Development" presented by the United States Department of Commerce's Economic Development Administration. The High Impact Portfolio Program uses data captured by Synchronist to identify, profile, and nurture fast growth companies in the Louisville region. In addition, Greater Louisville, Inc. hosts an annual recognition event for local companies, High Impact CEO roundtables, conferences, and leadership reports to further the success and growth of the program and local economy.
"Turning Lemons into Lemonade" Tennessee Valley Authority & Mississippi Development Authority Amy Bunton, TVA Gina Everetts, TVA Ken Johnston, MDA
Several issues posed potential problems for rolling out Synchronist statewide in the state of Mississippi, specifically shaky resources and a wide variety of economic development agencies not on the same page. Instead of perceiving this as a dilemma, TVA in conjunction with the Mississippi Development Authority, saw this as an opportunity. An opportunity to engage economic development professionals and organizations into a single collaborative effort yielding the following results: 1) a formalization of the regional utilities roles in BR&E programs; 2) a more inclusive approach to BR&E that has occurred through the synergy of the power utilities, the relevant distributors, MDA, and local economic developers; 3) a model for leveraging state, local, and regional resources for the betterment of all involved.
"Media Magic" Cabarrus Regional Chamber of Commerce, NC Jerry Saunders
While many ED professionals believe the key to success is business retention and expansion, not as many are able to use it to draw the attention of regional media groups like Jerry Saunders. Jerry understands the importance of growing the existing economic base, but even more importantly he has paired a face to go with the program. He has added a personal touch, if you will. Thanks to his efforts the Cabarrus Regional Chamber of Commerce has achieved positive exposure and recognition, not just among the local businesses but the community and media as well.

"Cross Selling Synchronist Info" Economic Development Institute, Georgia Institute of Technology Greg King
In 2004 a statewide initiative was begun to bring a number of agencies together as a partnership to improve their approach of working with Georgia's established industries - moving away from the "quick hits" as the yardstick, to that of funneling the right resources to the right companies. The Business InSight Partnership consists of teams from the GA Dept of Economic Development (DEcD), the Technical College System (DTAE) and Georgia Tech. Using reps from the combined regional office network and the technical colleges they targeted approximately 200 key manufacturing companies in the state (outside Atlanta). With Synchronist as the common platform for company understanding the Business InSight Partnership had the opportunity to address interests in new product development and prototyping as well as buyer/supplier matches, and innovation research grants in addition to the numerous traditional areas of assistance. The increased company understanding is of interest to multiple audiences and interest groups. The heightened level of understanding about Georgia companies has provided the opportunities to push information outside the partnership adding greater value and leveraging additional resources and information.
"Program Success & Sustainability Through Longevity" Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce Steve Sparks
The Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce Business Retention and Expansion Visitation Program targets the manufacturing sector of the regional economy, and utilizes the Synchronist Business Information System. This program has been in affect since November of 2002 and has compiled data from over 250 original and follow-up visits. Over these past 3 years the Nashville Area Chamber has compiled a database of referrals specializing in workforce development, community services, public policy, transportation, state resources, utility services, and international trade. As a result, the Chamber has identified and will nurture over $221 million dollars in investments/expansions over the next 3 years. "Growing the Base" Longmont Area Economic Council, CO Wendi Nafziger
Using a 20 person volunteer system, the Longmont Area Economic Council was able to identify local businesses with plans for expansion. Through the first 10 months of 2005, Wendi Nafziger and her colleagues in Longmont successfully identified 29 local companies with detailed plans for expansion. Of these 29 companies, 9 of them have already completed their expansion, 2 are presently working with the economic council, and several others have been put on a spreadsheet for follow-up at the appropriate time mentioned in the interview. Additionally, the Longmont community has seen a net job increase of 369 primary jobs through the second quarter of 2005.
"Voice of the Customer" Rockford Area Economic Development Council, IL Mark Podemski
The Rockford Area EDC has ventured into uncharted areas of business retention and expansion. The RAEDC is using The Language Processing® Method to analyze the information gathered during executive visits using the Synchronist On-Site Visit survey form. Mark Podemski and his colleagues identified six broad issues needing improvement at the Rockford Global Tradepark, 6,600-acre industrial park, and set forth to take action. As a result, the RAEDC was able to provide specific action items to address each of these broad issues previously identified. This has added a new element of completeness to reports, demonstrating the RAEDC as an accountable and action- oriented economic development organization.
"Privileged Information" Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce, TX Susan Davenport
Portfolio Austin is Susan Davenport's answer to "How do you manage your local economy?" Portfolio Austin has several key components including a pre-defined portfolio of local business made up of the region's top 25 employers, start-ups, fast growth firms, top tier earners, and targeted industry sectors; a SWAT team composed of local professionals specializing in city politics, workforce development, public policy, communications, economic development, international business, and air travel; quarterly analysis; and a newsletter released to the local businesses addressing the findings found during the most recent analysis of the data gathered with the Synchronist survey forms. The quarterly newsletter is particularly crucial because it informs local business executives of updates on public policy, international business trends, company announcements, air travel, and workforce. The kicker? Only those companies who take the time to sit through a retention and expansion visit are privileged to receive the newsletter. "Enhancing the Competitiveness of Local Businesses Through Collaboration" Greater Colorado Springs Economic Development Corporation Kara Roberts
In Colorado Springs collaboration is crucial to creating positive change and increasing the overall competitiveness of its primary employers. The Economic Vitality Group meets monthly to discuss and review the Assistance Request Report. As a result of this continual review process, the Economic Vitality Group has an astounding 89% issue resolution rate. This group works aggressively as a team to put together a cohesive, collaborative package that ultimately retains, expands, and attracts businesses and jobs.
"Engaging Local Business Leaders: Assistance Referral by Committee" Mobile Area Chamber of Commerce Steve Russell
The Mobile Area Chamber of Commerce has structured its business retention and expansion committee in a way that maximizes goal achievement for the city of Mobile. The BR&E committee is chaired by a local business executive with leadership experience and a strong belief in the concept that an active BR&E program is good for the community as a whole. The rest of the committee membership is made up of twenty-five high level community leaders such as CEO's, executive directors, and business leaders. This committee model allows an audience of high level business executives to engage in discussions regarding community problems and in brainstorming sessions that collectively work toward problem solutions. Further, it allows these committee members to directly participate by utilizing their experience and expertise to assist firms to resolve their organizational problems.
"Increasing Reach Through Relationship Building" Savannah Economic Development Authority Lee Grimes
The Savannah Economic Development Authority has formed a unique partnership, BRAT (Business Retention Act Team), involving six agencies (SEDA, State Department of Education, technical colleges, State Department of Labor, university system, and Savannah Chamber of Commerce). These six agencies work together to meet with companies and pull resources together in order to extend the reach of the BR&E program. As a result, BRAT has been an exemplary BR&E partnership by not only retaining and expanding firms, but also by positioning it self as a leading organization and effecting community programs, policies, and procedures. "Tireless Champion" Birmingham Area Chamber of Commerce Brian Murphy & Griffin Lassiter
The Existing Business Team (EBT) is a joint effort between the Birmingham Regional Chamber of Commerce, utility companies, local governments, and various non-profit agencies. All members of the EBT are economic development professionals with many years of experience, are highly capable, and significantly contribute to the growth and retention of businesses in the Birmingham region. The Birmingham region and the EBT highly depend on its volunteers to achieve success as BR&E organization. Brian Murphy, Birmingham Regional Chamber of Commerce, specifically notes one volunteer as a "Tireless Champion", Griffin Lassiter. Griffin, in addition to his primary job as a close aid to the mayor, has made 37 documented visits thus far in 2005 and continually goes out of his way to provide solutions and assistance to the companies he visits. This an excellent example of the impact volunteers can make on the local economic base.

File: TO: City Manager FROM: City Clerk DATE: November 14, 2005 SUBJECT:Boundary Expansion Request - JubileeParkway
Recommendation: That Council approve in principal the request to incorporate the following land into the boundaries of the City of Campbell River subject to receipt of comments from the Ministry of Community Services, the Comox Strathcona Regional District and the Alternate Approval Process:. The West 1/2 of the South East 1/4 of Section 16, Township 1, Comox District, Plan 522, Except Part of Plan VIP69102 owned by TimberWest Forest III Limited; and 276 Finch Road owned by Ted Maxwell.
Council Policy:
Section 4.1 of the Council Policy Manual - BOUNDARY EXTENSION REQUESTS TO THE CITY OF CAMPBELL RIVER provides that the following information will be provided to the City of Campbell River prior to Council's consideration of a request that a City boundary be expanded, providing that any or all of the requirements may be waived when pertaining to a small piece of property: i) A description of the environmental impacts that boundary extension and development will have on adjacent land uses and natural resources. A description of the socio-economic impacts that boundary extension and development will have on City of Campbell River residents. iii) A description of how the boundary extension and development will integrate with the policies and long-term goals established in the Official Community Plan, other relevant City bylaws, and Provincial policies. A description of how the development site will be serviced with the appropriate infrastructure, including, sewer and water, roads, electrical service, fire protection, and other appropriate infrastructure. v) A description of the costs to the Cityof expandingthe boundary,and the potential impact on revenue.
Background/Discussion: Staff has been in discussions with land owners regarding development along Jubilee Parkway. The northerly half of the TimberWest land is surrounding on three sides by the City and is a logical
IlZeuslCorporateServiceslLegislative Services Department\Shared Data\Clerk\Memos & Fu.ces12005IBoundarv Expansipn Jub e Parkwaydoc extension of the Marylanddevelopment.The adjacent developments are currently struggling with utility designs to accommodate the possible development of the TimberWest lands north of Jubilee, without the ability to properly plan for cost recovery (e.g. either by private agreementor byway of a latecomer agreement to recover a portion of the developmentcosts)because the land is outside theCity. The parcels south of Jubilee will also play a part in resolving drainage issues for the lands north of Jubilee. Both owners have applied for boundary extension to facilitatedevelopment,the costs of which would be their responsibility under the subdivision process. A plan showing the properties is attached. Conclusion:
Approval of this application will enable the owners to access City services without which would be a barrier to the development of these properties. Communication: This application will be referred to the Comox Strathcona Regional District and the Ministry of Community Aboriginal and Women's Services for review.Following receipt of comments from MCAWS and the Regional District the proposal will be the subject of an Alternate Approval Process giving the electors of the City of Campbell River an opportunity of expressing their views.

Mr. W. Hat-stead Clerk Cityof Campbell River 301 St. Ann's Road Campbell River, B.C. V9W 4C7
Dear Mr. Halstead,
I recently attended a meeting at the City of Campbell River regarding the development and servicing of properties owned by Seymour Pacific Developments and myself in the Ocean Grove
At that meeting, the requirement to provide future road connections to Timberwest properties located to the west of my property on Colorado Drive was identified. The reason given was that the Timberwest property, including property located to the south of Jubilee Parkway, was under consideration for a boundary extension (from Regional District of Cornox Strathcona) and that eventual development would logically include access to Jubilee Parkway.
It would also appear logical that such access would be extended to the south of Jubilee Parkway to facilitate development.
I own property between Finch Road and Jubilee Parkway, to the east of, and down slope from the Timberwest property.
It would appear probable that eventual development of my property would require integration of services and roadways with the adjacent Timberwest property.
I therefore request that the City of Campbell River accept this letter as application to have City boundaries extended to include my property (PID 008-886-326) located at 276 Finch Road, and that zoning for the property be assigned to allow future development consistent with that permitted for my property to the north of Jubilee Parkway.

Subject: Grant-in-aid Request from Willow Point Lions
Date: November 17, 2005
Recommendation
That Council approve a grant-in-aid up to $205.50 (50% of the total rental costs) toward the rental charges at the Sportsplex for their Christmas Lights Tour being hosted on December 18, 2005 by the Willow Point Lions.
Back round
The District of Campbell River has supported the Christmas Lights Tour for many years through its Grant-in-aid for Facility Rentals Policy. The Willow Point Lions have received grants that represent 50% of the total rental charges.
Discussion
The rental charges for the use of the Sportsplex for the 2005 Christmas Lights Tour total $411. The eligible amount for a Grant-in-aid would be $205.50. The Willow Point Lion's are requesting that the grant-in-aid cover 100% of the rental charges. This request would fall outside the current Grant-in- aid for Facility Rentals Policy.
Communication/Action
The Parks and Recreation Department will contact the Willow Point Lions to confirm Council's decision. The Parks and Recreation Department will work with the Willow Point Lions to meet their rental needs.

Prior to the winter season, the Snow and Ice Control Plan is reviewed by Public Works staff. This review is used to identify any changes needed in the plan and to ensure these changes are incorporated. This year the only change is the addition of Spruce Street, Treelane Road, Northmore Road and Cheviot Road onto the primary route in Zone 4. This was necessitated due to the opening of Ripple Rock School in September.
A copy of the plan is available on the City's website and ads will be running in both local papers throughout the winter season.

Street and Parking Lot Snow and Ice Control
During icy or snow conditions, the Public Works Department follows the Snow Removal and Ice Control Policy. This policy states," The Public Works Department will plough and sand whenever snow conditions or freezing conditions are such that a hazard is created. "
Snow and Ice Control operations on City streets are done by the following priority: 1. Primary Routes - Major arterials and roads accessing emergency services. (Hospital, Fire Halls, RCMP etc.) 2. Secondary Routes - Major public access routes, transit routes and significant hills. (Alder Street, 1st Ave., Woodburn Road etc.) 3. Remaining streets and lanes
Snow and Ice Control operations at City Facilities are done by the following priority: 1. "A" Facilities -Public Works Yard, RCMP, Fire Halls 1&2, 2. "B" Facilities - City Hall, Community Centre, Sportsplex. 3. "C" Facilities - Tidemark Theatre/Library, Museum, Pier and Foreshore Parking Lots.
During a severe winter storm, all ploughing and sanding operations are directed towards keeping the primary emergency routes open. Ploughs and sanders will only move onto secondary routes and into residential areas after the primary routes are safe. Only primary and secondary routes will be cleared on staff overtime.
Sidewalk Snow and Ice Clearing
District crews clear sidewalks and stairs at City facilities. Designated bus stops will be cleared by Public Works in the event of a major snowfall.
All other sidewalks are governed by the `Traffic and Highways Bylaw No. 2265 Amendment'. This bylaw states: Owners or tenants of all Commercial, Industrial and Institutional premises are required to clear snow and ice from the sidewalks abutting their premisesby 10:00 AM on any daythat the premises are open to the public.
Owners or managers of all Multi-unit Residential premises are required to clear snow and ice from the sidewalks abutting their premises by 10:00 AM on any day that the premises are occupied.
Owners or tenants of Single and Duplex Residences are requested to clear snow and ice from the sidewalks abutting their premises.
No person shall clear snow or ice from sidewalks abutting their premises and place it on a roadway, except where the removal of the snow or ice onto their premises is impractical.
Where snow and ice is required to be cleared from the sidewalks, these sidewalks will be inspected on a periodic basis, or upon a complaint being received by the City of Campbell River Bylaw Enforcement Officer. If a sidewalk has not been cleared, as required, a violation notice will be issued, and 24 hours will be given for the owner, manager or tenant to clear the sidewalk.
If the clearing has not taken place within the 24 hours the City will have the work done and actual costs will be charged to the owner of the property. As with all Public Works Operations the public can help: Try not to park on the road during or after a snowstorm. Parked cars impede the ability of the snowploughs to clear the streets adequately. Please don't shovel snow from the sidewalk onto the roadway. This may become a hazard to vehicles. Try to locate and clean the catch basin grates in the roadways in front of your house. This helps clear a path for the run-off of melting snow and prevents flooding of your property or that of your neighbours. Don't drive unless you absolutely have to and only if you have good snow tires and a cold weather emergency kit. Use transit whenever possible. If you have to use your car, you are reminded to move to the right when approaching a sand and salt truck. It is not possible for the sanders to be shut down whenever a vehicle passes. Drivers should also keep well back, and watch for ploughs and sanders backing up.

File: MJP-05-13 TO: City Manager FROM: Adam Fitch, Planner DATE: November 17, 2005 SUBJECT: Major Development Permit - Peter Bradley, Honey Lynch, Rob Archer and Cathy Fox (Seaside Lodge) - 2371 / 2375 South Island Highway
Recommendation: THAT Council approve Major Development Permit MJP-05-13 for 2371 / 2375 South Island Highway to permit development of a proposed 10-unit hotel complex as outlined.
Council Policy: Official Community Plan 3.4 Development Permit Guidelines 3.4.2 Basic "Form and Function" Development Permit Guidelines 3.4.3 Area Specific "Character" Development Permit Guidelines 3.4.3.2 Willow Point (Secondary) Commercial Area.
Chapter 9: Environmentally Sensitive Areas Goals, Principles and Policies (2nd and 3rd bullets) 9.5.4 Development Permit Guidelines for the Streamside Areas, Campbell River Estuary Area, and the Oceanfront and Foreshore Areas
Summary: A report was provided to Council on November 7, 2005 introducing the Seaside Lodge proposal, wherein Council considered the associated Official Community Plan (OCP) amendments and rezoning applications (files OCP-05-07 and ZON-05-1 0 respectively). The purpose of the current report is to provide sufficient details of the project design for Council to consider approval of a Development Permit to construct the development as proposed.
As per the November 7 report, the applicant has requested that the two subject properties be redesignated from Residential to Commercial in the Official Community Plan, and that they be rezoned from the Residential one zone (R -- 1) to the Commercial two zone (C - 2).
The applicant has also requested development permit approval to construct a 9-unit hotel on the subject lands. The land area of the two properties together is 1763 square metres (approximately 0.44 acres). Currently there is a 2-bedroom bed-and-breakfast operation (the Seaside Cottage) located on the northern parcel, and a small residence (occupied by the operator of the Seaside Cottage) on the southern parcel.
The development proposal involves constructing a 3-storey, 9-unit hotel on the south side of the property. The hotel, to be called the Seaside Lodge, would consist of resort-style accommodations, each with a stocked kitchen, a gas fireplace, in-suite laundry facilities, a private, covered balcony and a private outdoor hot tub. The applicants have provided a written summary of their propo al (copy attached), describing the proposed operation and the anticipated benefits t,the comrnun. The P: (Applications - Planning!MAJOR DP - MJPIMJP-05-13 2371 2375 S ISL HWYReport to Council.dot 11/17/2005 existing residence on the south parcel would be relocated to the north side of the property, adjacent to the cottage, and would continue to serve as the hotel manager's residence and office.
Background / Discussion: The applicants have requested approval for development of a 10-unit hotel consisting of three separate buildings. One unit (the Seaside Cottage) is already in place, as well as the manager's residence/office. The new construction would consist of 9 units in a 3-storey building comprising 5184 square feet, plus 1728 square feet of balcony space. The units are designed to maximize the privacy for residents, and minimize the transmission of noise from one unit to another, or off the property; most sound would be directed towards the ocean and would not affect any neighbours.
It is noted that the new building is proposed to be approximately 12 metres in height. While this height is considerably under the maximum height of 15 metres that is permitted in the C-2 zone, the building height is of concern to at least one of the neighbouring property owners. It is acknowledged that the proposed building will impact the views that some neighbours now enjoy towards the ocean.
There are, however, a number of factors that should be considered with respect to the impacts to views: the building is no wider than a typical house; there is some slope across the property, sloping down from the highway, such that the ground elevation at the building site will be approximately 10 feet below the elevation of the road; most of the properties on the other side of the highway are of a service commercial nature, such that there are few local residents whose views would be affected; and there is currently a large hedge across the front of the property that obscures most of the potential view, and part of the hedge will be retained. Therefore, staff believe that the impacts on views will be negligible.
Within the Development Permit, a variance is required to reduce the minimum required side yard on the south side of the proposed building, and to permit parking within the required side yard area. Section 45.5 of Campbell River Zoning Bylaw No. 2700-1998 (Minimum Dimensions for Yards in the C-2 Zone) stipulates that where a commercial development is immediately adjacent to another lot that is zoned residential, multiple-family residential or public assembly, the minimum side yard must be at least 3.0 metres or one half the height of the principle building, whichever is greater. In this case, the proposed building is 12 metres in height, so the minimum side yard must be 6.0 metres.
Due to the narrowness of the lot, the applicant is proposing a side yard of 1.4 metres. This variance is supported on the basis that, while the adjacent lot is zoned residential, it is in fact the site of a future park, and the proximity of the proposed building will not have a detrimental effect on the use of the neighbouring property as parkland. The same logic applies to permitting some parking to be partially located within the required side yard, to facilitate the parking requirements within otherwise limited space.
With respect to the development's setback from the ocean, in accordance with Section 9.5.4.2 of the OCP - Development Permit Guidelines for the Oceanfront, and Section 14.2 of the zoning bylaw - Siting Development Adjacent to Watercourses, Streams, the Ocean and Foreshore Areas, development within 30 metres of the natural boundary of the ocean will only be permitted in conjunction with an approved development permit. In this case, the natural boundary is defined as the high water mark, and development is proposed a distance of 16.06 metres from the high water mark, instead of 30 metres.
This reduction can be supported based on the following factors: the developer will undertake a replanting program in the affected area, and the DFO habitat officer supports the proposal. Furthermore, this proposal has been in the design stages for more than a year. Consequently, the
Page 2
P: (Applications - PlanninglMAJOR DP - MJPIMJP-O5-13 2371 2375 S ISL HWYIReport to Council.dot development setbacks that were applicable were established under the previous OCP, which did not stipulate a specific setback from the ocean. This reduction should also be considered as part of the Development Permit.
Under the previous OCP, (Section 8.6 South Island Highway) developers were encouraged to provide a waterfront walkway along the ocean, protected by a right-of-way. In conjunction with a subdivision undertaken in 1997 and in accordance with these provisions, the applicant previously constructed a blue-chip walkway on top of the berm where the sanitary sewermain is located, in the foreshore (Crown land) area to the northeast of the property. This walkway does not connect to other walkways at either end, and has not been maintained by the City. These provisions have not been carried over to the current OCP.
In terms of "form and function" and "area-specific character" criteria within the Development Permit Guidelines, the proposed development is deemed to meet the guidelines. The new building is designed with a West Coast Village architectural theme that will blend in very well with the Willow Point Village design. The proposal includes one free-standing sign (already existing) at the front of the property, adjacent to the highway.
Communication: Notification was provided in accordance with Planning Procedures Bylaw No. 2989, and the applicants hosted a neighbourhood public meeting on October 5, 2005 in the Committee Room at City Hall, jointly in conjunction with the neighbourhood public meeting for the related rezoning application. Three neighbours attended the meeting (two representing a single property), and while considerable discussion took place, the general nature of the comments received was supportive of the project.
Further, notification was mailed out to neighbouring property owners in accordance with the requirements for development variance permit, and a number of letters in support of the proposal were received, as attached to the report package.
Conclusion: Staff believe that the project has been carefully designed to fit onto the site and compliment the area. This proposal is in accordance with both the intent and the objectives of the business development policies in the OCP for the Willow Point area. Impacts on adjacent properties are anticipated to be minimal, and the benefits to commercial activity in the area are expected to be positive and significant. Staff therefore support the proposal, and recommend consideration for approval.
Yours truly,
Adam Fitch, Planner

02/11/2005 - ' ., OfficialCommunity Plan and Zoning Amendment Application 2371 and 2375 SouthIsland Highway Intended Use
The properties will be used for year `round tourist accommodation under C2 zoning. A nine unit, condo-type building will be constructed on Lot B next to the existing Seaside Cottage. The building will be called `Seaside Lodge' and will be owned 50% by Peter Bradley and 50% by Rob Archer and Cathy Fox- A covenant could be placed on the titles of the properties restricting their use to only hotel and office use under C2 zoning. The lodge will be quite luxurious with each unit having it's own hot tub on a balcony overlooking the ocean, gas fireplaces in each plus a separate bedroom with a hide-a-bed in the living room. The units will also have full kitchens that will come stocked with everything the guests need for a delicious breakfast each morning. Each unit will have it's own laundry room with washer and dryer. They will also be equipped with a stereo, tv, vcr/dvd/cd player, wireless internet and telephone.
Benefits to the Community
Seaside Lodge is a destination lodge as is Seaside Cottage. Luxurious accommodation on the ocean ensures a high occupancy and longer stays. It is not unusual for guests to stay 2 to 3 weeks at Seaside Cottage. Seaside Lodge and Seaside Cottage attract guests with higher than average incomes. These guests bring thousands of dollars into the community. By providing luxury accommodations in such a beautiful, yet small city of Campbell River, will make Campbell River a destination resort city, not a stopover. If we excel in offering our visitors some of the best accommodations on the Island, they will stay much longer, visit more often and tell more friends about the great time they had in Campbell River. Seaside Lodge will fill the niche for the discerning traveler who seeks out the best accommodation available without too much concern for price. There is a large, new market out there waiting to be tapped by offering luxury accommodations in Campbell River. Many Seaside Cottage guests shop and dine right in Willow Point. The potential number of guests for Seaside Lodge and Seaside Cottage running at full occupancy is 42 guests, 36 in the Lodge (max. 4 guests/unit x 9 units) and 6 in the Cottage. Seaside Cottage employs two part time housekeepers and will create two new full time and two new part time positions when the Lodge opens. The rate of pay is between $10 and $13 per hour. The operation will definitely have a positive impact on many businesses both in Willow Point and downtown and create new employment at the same time. The visitors will appreciate the fine accommodations, which in turn will help establish Campbell Riveras a destination.

Our Seaside Cottage guests, who come from all over the world, are not much concerned about the cost of accommodations and activities. They are more concerned with enjoying themselves and they want convenience and luxury in their accommodations. They spend a great deal of money in Willow Point and Campbell River shopping, fishing, taking in eco-tourism activities, and dining. Their expenses are not that relevant. They have high average incomes and they stay 5 -18 days, not just overnight. Seaside Lodge will reflect the same luxury as Seaside Cottage, providing the same upscale accommodations for upscale guests.
Seaside Lodge
Seaside Lodge will be comprised of 9 luxurious tourist suites. The suites will have one bedroom and each suite will have it's own individual hot tub *on a covered balcony, full kitchen, gas fireplace, in-suite laundry, t.v., dvd/vcr, phone and internet. The suites will be furnished with custom made oak and pine furniture and cabinetry. Seaside Lodge will be 3 storeys, done in a West Coast style that blends in very well with the new Willow Point Village theme. Seaside Lodge will enhance the feel of Willow Point Village with a pleasing design, good colour scheme and will feature many native plantings in the landscaping. Page 2
Benefits to The Community
A positive economic impact on Willow Point businesses
Willow Point needs more tourist accommodations to have a healthy urban mix. Seaside Lodge will have a definite positive economic impact on the businesses and services in Willow Point. Willow Point will benefit from the increased number of visitors strolling around in our village. Seaside Lodge itself will require more supplies such as food ( each suite's kitchen comes stocked with all the guests need for a delicious breakfast each morning such as bacon, eggs, fresh fiuit, fresh baked goods, coffee, teas, cereals, and condiments), also cleaning supplies and paper goods. Our guests are just a few minutes walk to all shops and services.
Employment
Two new full time and two new part time positions will be required for Seaside Lodge. Seaside Cottage and Seaside Lodge have a wage scale between $10.00 and $13.30 per hour.
We would like to build Seaside Lodge so that we may accommodate a few more affluent guests who enjoy living in our community. We know Seaside Lodge will be a great asset to Willow Point and the Campbell River.

Minutes Of The Neighbourhood Public Meeting Held Wednesday October 5th, 2005 in the Committee Room of City Hall
The owners of 2371 and 2375 South Island Hwy., Rob Archer and Cathy Fox and Peter Bradley held the meeting to explain their Seaside Lodge project and to answer any questions and concerns from the neighbours attending.
Two neighbours were in attendance, Mr. Bob Walker and his son David and also Mr. Dan Sampson. Mr. Adam Fitch from the Planning Department was also present. Mr. Bob Walker owns the house at 2345 South Island Highway adjacent 2371 South Island Highway where Seaside Cottage is located. Mr. Sampson owns the strip mall opposite the properties on the other side of the highway.
The meeting was called to order at 7:00p.m.. CathyFox took the minutes.
-Everyone was introduced by Peter Bradley. Mr. Bradley described the Seaside Lodge as a 3 storey building with 9 luxurious tourist suites, each with their own hot tub on a covered balcony and gas fireplace. All would be one bedroom suites with in-suite laundry, a full kitchen which comes stocked with everything the tourists need for a delicious breakfast each morning, tv, dvd/vcr, phone, internet, etc. Peter Bradley described the type of guests they will attract with these suites as not price conscious but looking for superior accommodations, convenience and location. These visitors enjoy the spending time and money in Willow Point and Campbell River shopping, dining and using the local services. Mr. Bradley stated that the plan was to open Seaside Lodge in June 2006. -Mr. Bob Walker wanted to know how it would affect his property value. Mr. Bradley replied he did not know. -David Walker was concerned about traffic congestion and noise around the Lodge, and that we would be unable to control our clientele. -Mr. Bradley explained the type of clientele that Seaside Cottage presently gets. Seaside Cottage does not rely on drive by traffic. Reservations are made well in advance sometimes up to 2 years in advance. The guests are very affluent who spend a good part of their year travelling. They are not rowdy and usually go to bed early. They have extended stays usually from 5-18 days. We do not have a lot of guests checking in and out everyday after only spending one night so traffic, congestion and noise are and will not be a problem. -The type of zoning was discussed with all present, that both lots are presently RI and we'll be applying to have both lots zoned commercial, C2. Mr. Bradley stated that there could be a covenant on the property limiting the use to strictly hotel use. This would prevent the property from being used for any of the other uses under C2. -Mr. Samson stated that he did not like 3 storeys and that we would have a lot of resistance to that. He said he would like to see the building 2 storeys instead of 3. Page 2
-Mr. Bradley said that because the natural slope of the property has not and will not be changed. Seaside Lodge will be considerably lower than the highway grade thus minimizing the height appearance. -Mr. Samson said it would block his view from his mall across the highway. -Mr. Bradley said that he does not have an ocean view at present through the property because of the cedar hedge along the highway which is to remain. His view will be unchanged. -Mr. David Walker said that waterfront is not for tourists. -Mr. Bradley said that the tourists love the waterfront and that Seaside Lodge will fill a real need for tourist accommodation in Willow Point. -Rob Archer said that luxury guests want luxury accommodations. They want a quiet, scenic place for their families, not across the street on the other side of the highway. -Mr. Sampson said it was too big. -Mr. Archer said Seaside Lodge is actually not big and would fit right in with the Willow Point Village theme quite well. Mr. Archer also said there is a need for high end tourist accommodations. That is one of the reasons tourists go right through instead of staying longer in Campbell River. -Mr. David Walker asked about the purpose of the meeting and how the process was to follow with the public hearing, etc. and what was the plan for the area. Mr. Adam Fitch explained how the process worked and also that the plan for the area is for mixed residential and commercial. Mr. Fitch noted some minor variances to be considered. The side yard set back with Lot C should be 20 feet since Lot C is zoned residential. The city owns Lot C. -Rob Archer said that sound was the main issue we were concerned about when considering the construction. The balconies are 12 feet deep and are covered therefore sound can only travel straight out towards the ocean. Landscaping has been designed for sound suppression also. -Dan Samson stated that it should be a bed and breakfast instead. -Peter said that many people do not like bed and breakfasts when sharing the hot tub, bathrooms, etc. -Dan spoke about b&b's on Saltspring Island -Rob said most people don't like to mix, they want privacy for their families. -Peter said the Lodge suites will be totally private and also have kitchens that come stocked with everything the guests need for a delicious breakfast each morning such as bacon, eggs, fresh fruit, fresh baked goods, coffee, teas, cereals, etc. -Dan said there is a real need for high end accommodations in Willow Point. -Peter stated that many Seaside Cottage guests have chosen the cottage first, having found it on the internet. Then they come and discover Campbell River. The cottage attracts new business to town. Peter said that the cottage and the lodge do not depend on drive by traffic. Guests make reservations well in advance because of the effective marketing being done to promote the cottage. Some guests reserve 2 years in advance. Page 3
The rate in the summer is $225 per night for the Lodge suites and $255 per night for the cottage. Peter said that they do not get party people. Most guests go to bed early because they have busy days of fishing, eco-tours, etc. in the morning. -Dan stated that we will get a lot of resistance and said it was bad for the community -Peter said it would be good for the community and Willow Point needed it. -Dan said there should be a restriction on number of units, density and height. He said there shouldn't be any more people walking on the beach because there is enough already. -Dan asked if there was a walkway -Peter said that they did put a walkway in when the property was subdivided in 1997. It has become covered with driftwood coming over the seawall in the storms.
General banter followed regarding property taxes, possibly having an elevator in the Lodge within a year's time, etc.

APPT: Appointment to be set up
Dear Sir/Madame:
Please noteI am fully in support of the application for re-zoning and building of a multi-room bed and breakfast facility adjacent to Seaside Cottage, by Mr. Bradley and his business partners.
I have a business in Willow Point and feel the increased business coming to the area can do nothing but good for this part of the community and for the community of Campbell River as a whole. There are no real multi-room facilities for tourists to overnight at in Willow Point and this would be a great asset to this part of our community.
Yours sincerely,

Letter of Support for the Expansion of the Seaside Cottage
I would like to encourage Council to approve the expansion of the Seaside Cottage from its present size to include nine luxury suites. My business, Willows Market Ltd., is located within easy walking distance of this new lodge and I believe we would benefit from extra tourist traffic in our business area. The visual appearance and landscaping of the new building appears to complement the present boulevard landscaping that is planned for Willow Point. At only nine suites, it seems unlikely that there will be many problems with increased noise or traffic problems created by this facility. We have one of the most spectacular oceanfront views in the world and we should be taking every opportunity to encourage an increased population density along the waterfront so that more may enjoy the view. The corridor that extends from Pier Street to Storey's Beach has room for many more condominiums, apartments, hotels, and destination lodges. Such development would be very beneficial to businesses in both Willow Point and the rest of Campbell River. Shoddy architecture and the use of ugly building materials are my only concerns with developments along this corridor. All attempts should be made to conform to a common standard; and one that reflects our maritime and forestry heritage. Peter has been a strong member of our business community here in Willow Point and I wish Peter, Rob and Cathy good luck and may they have many prosperous and successful years with their new expanded lodge.

I am in favour of the re-zoning application and construction of Seaside Lodge in Willow Point. The project will be great for keeping tourists in our community who will support our local businesses. November 15, 2005
To Whom It May Concern:
Re: Seaside Lodge Project
I am pleased to have been asked to write a letter in support of the Seaside Lodge Project. Tourism Campbell River & Region (Tourism North Central Island) is a destination management organization dedicated to the growth of the tourism industry in the Campbell River region. Seaside Cottages have been a member of our organization since June 2001 and are now in the process of an expansion.
Tourism is a major industry in Campbell River and Tourism Campbell River & Region believes that supporting our operators is imperative to the continued growth of this vital industry and therefore has the mandate in assisting in the enhancement and expansion of tourism opportunities. At present there is a limited selection of accommodations in Willow Point most of which are Bed & Breakfasts.
In closing we support the proposed project.
Yours truly,
Teresa Davis Marketing/Membership Coordinator

Re: Notice of Intent, Major Development Variance Permit No,: MJP-05-13
I am very concerned that the City of Campbell River, as a whole, has allowed this application to continue to this degree. An application to change setbacks that allow development of this nature to come closer to a beautiful natural beach seems very wrong. The beach will only be further disturbed when landscaping then becomes an issue. What has happened to protecting our environment and allowing the population to enjoy a natural wonder?
On a personal note I feel that a three storey motel style building that is only 15 metres from the property line on the ocean side will block most, if not all, of my view of the water to the south of my property at 2345 South Island Highway. This property was bought in good faith believing that a residential area would remain primarily residential.
This will havea tremendously detrimentaleffect to my property valueand I amvery much against theproposal.

HIS WORSHIP MAYOR LYNN NASH DISTRICT OF CAMPBELL RIVER 301 ST. ANN'S RD CAMPBELL RIVER BC V9W 4C7
DearMayor Nash:
Once again November has been proclaimed as Adoption Awareness Month in British Columbia. In your community and throughout British Columbia, there are children who need adoptive families. This month provides an opportunity for our respective governments to highlight the need for every child to have a stable, loving and nurturing place to call home.
Approximately 1000 children in government care are currently waiting for a family to adopt them and welcome them into their home. These children deserve to have a family to belong to - someone to help them with their homework, someone to attend their sports games, someone to celebrate every childhood milestone. And once they have navigated through childhood and adolescence, in adulthood, like most grown children, they will still need family to rely on for advice, assistance and encouragement.
In the month of November, the Ministry of Children and Family Development works to enhance awareness and our recruitment efforts to find families for children who are in our continuing care. Potential adoptive parents are ordinary people who reside-in neighbourhoods throughout our communities. They come from diverse backgrounds and they have a range of life experiences. Single people, married people and all types of families and parent compositions can apply to adopt. There are a variety of community events and awareness displays to support the need-to find more adoptive parents. Enclosed are a series of adoption posters that you may wish to display in visible areas in your municipal or community centres.
If you are interested in finding out more about adoption, or if you require additional posters, please contact Anne Horan, the ministry's Regional Executive Director for your community, at 250 952-4780.
Thank you for joining me in the important responsibility of finding-adoptive families-for British Columbia's waiting children.
Sincerely,
Stanley B. Hagen Minister

November 2005 Ministry of Children and Family Development
ADOPTION AWARENESS MONTH
The Government of British Columbia has proclaimed November as Adoption Awareness Month. The Ministry of Children and Family Development is taking this month-long opportunity to raise awareness about children in care who are waiting for an adoptive home, and to recognize adoption as a valued way to build a family. Children placed for adoption through the ministry are in the permanent care of BC's Ministry of Children and Family Development. For children in continuing custody, the ministry makes plans for permanency. These plans can include: > Adoption (including foster caregiver adoption: long-term caregivers are encouraged to adopt). > Transfer of custody: this transfers custody of a child to someone with a significant tie to the child. > Ensuring a child has life-long connections with significant adults in their lives if adoption or other permanency options are not in the child's best interest. Each year approximately 300 children in care find a forever family through adoption. Still, there are about 1,000 children in continuing care who are waiting for a permanent family. Many of the children available for adoption are of school age. They may be siblings who need to stay together. Some may have special placement needs due to difficult early childhood experiences, prenatal exposure to alcohol or drugs, learning delays, or other developmental challenges. We strive to place children with families that preserve a child's ethnic and cultural heritage. As culture is essential to a child's positive identity formation and preservation, we need adoptive parents who reflect BC's cultural diversity, and adoptive parents who are willing to maintain life-long connections with the child's cultural community. In collaboration with community partners like the Adoptive Families Association, this ministry is committed to increasing the number of approved adoption homes for children in care, and are working to raise awareness about BC's waiting children. People interested in adopting are invited to speak to a social worker or attend an initial information session in their area. If applicants are interested in pursuing the adoption process they will receive more information regarding the needs of waiting children through an Adoption Education Program and an in-depth homestudy process. To find out more about the adoption process and the needs of BC's waiting children, call 1 877 ADOPT 07 or visit www.mef.gov.bc.caladoption/index.htin. -30- k

Attention:Mayor Lynn Nash
Re: Application for 2006 Forest Capital of BC
Dear Sir:
The TLArepresents the interests of community based businesses reliant on the forest industry across the coast of BritishColumbia.We are pleased to provide our full support for your city's application to be the 2006 Forest Capital of BC.
Forestry remains BC's number one industry supporting, approximately one job in five provincially, and even more so in the community of Campbell River. Our forests provide the basis for which health and education can be funded within the province, as well as, providing the backbone for the economic and social opportunities weas British Columbians have come to enjoy.
Campbell River is the centre of forest industry activity within coastal British Columbia. Over 60% of the TLA's 550 company memberships either live in or work from the Campbell River area. Additionally, a significant number of manufacturing, outdoor recreation and sporting activities rely on the forests in and around Campbell River, making it an ideal city to highlight to value of BC's forests.
We see the achievement of the 2006 Forest Capital of BC designation as a significant opportunity to highlight not only the value of the industry provincially, but the value of the industry within the community where our membership lives and works.

Dear Ms. King and Mr. Ellis:
Subject:Licence of Occupation - Ocean Blue Cedar - File # 0256215
In August of this year I received a call from Ron Creber of Land and Water B.C. regarding your application for a new "Licence of Occupation" in the Campbell River estuary. As you know, your current "Licence of Occupation" will expire on December 31, 2005. Mr. Creber explained that a decision was being considered however, as of this date, I still have not received written confirmation that your application has been approved. The end of the year is rapidly approaching and I thought that it would be prudent under the circumstances to inform you that Fisheries & Oceans Canada (DFO) has not changed its position since it provided its original response. "Carrying out log handling and de-watering operations in Baikie Slough beyond this date would constitute a harmful alteration, disruption or desti action of fish habitat which is an offence pursuant to Section 35(1) of the Fisheries Act ".
Ocean Blue Cedar (OBC) originally expressed its intention to move the cedar mill to another location. I understand that OBC has now decided that the mill will not be relocated. If relocation of the mill is not an option at this tire:, DFO requests that OBC redesign its operation to bring it into compliance with the habitat provisions of the Fisheries Act. In simple terms, a design that would meet the requirements of DFO would be one that would eliminate the need for log handling and tog storage in Baikie Slough.

If relocation or redesign of the OBC mill operations in Baike Slough is not being considered at this time, the only remaining option for OBC is to submit to DFO a project proposal request for an Authorization under Section 35(2) of the Fisheries Act for log handling and log storage in Baikie Slough. In order for DFO to make an assessment ofthe proposal request, the following information is required:
Fisheries Resource Values- a description of the existing fisheries resource values of the area that could be affected by the proposed works, including species of fish and shellfish that inhabit the area, fish habitat present (e.g. spawning, rearing, or over wintering) and a description of vegetation present including its extent.
2.Description of ProposedActivities - a detailed description of the proposed works and site plan that indicates how the works are to be carried out, including all machinery and materials to be used. A time schedule of activities and applicable work windows that may apply must be provided.
3. Impacts to the Fisheries Resources- anticipatedimpact to fisheries values should be discussed including the identification of the nature, magnitude and location of potential impacts, and effects on fish and fish habitat in adjacent areas.All anticipated changes to fish habitat as a result of works should be stated.
4.Mitigation Proposed - a description of all actions and contingencies that will be taken to avoid, reduce or eliminate the impacts outlined in Point 3. If it is not possible to mitigate all negative impacts to fish and fish habitat the proposal should include a discussion of any proposed habitat compensation works that may be required in order to achieve "No Net Loss" of fish habitat.
If the Department's review of a proposal determines that there will be a harmful alteration, disruption or destruction (HADD) of fish habitat, an Authorization under Section 35(2) of theFisheries Actwill be required. The proponent should be aware that the issuance of an Authorization is at the discretion of DFO.
This requirement also triggers review of the proposal under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA). It is hoped that thoughtful project design andmitigat 'n mesores will help to make an Authorization unnecessary. -3-
