Gimse (Area C), R. Oakley (Area A), Directors D. Lawson (Area B), B. Leigh (Area D), C. Lonsdale (Squamish), M. Fellowes (Squamish), H. O’Reilly (Whistler), C. McLeod (Pemberton), K. Taylor (Lillooet) STAFF: Administrator R.A. Beauchamp, Manager of Utilities/Community Services A. Reeder, Manager of Planning and Development R. MacPherson, Building Inspector B. Chickloski, Recording Secretary A. Macdonald DELEGATIONS: Bill Barratt and Don MacLaurin (Re: Whistler Community Forest), Norm LeBlanc (Re: Whistler Community Forest) MEDIA/PUBLIC: A representative of the Whistler Question was present. 1. CALL TO ORDER / CONFIRMATION OF AGENDA The meeting was called to order at 1:10 p.m. The following item was added to the agenda: 1.2 Recognition of CyAnne Bertoia’s 25 years of service with the SLRD It was moved by Director Lonsdale and seconded by Director McLeod: THAT the agenda be confirmed as amended. CARRIED 1.2 CYANNE BERTOIA – 25 YEARS OF SERVICE WITH SLRD The Chair thanked Ms. Bertoia for her 25 years of dedicated service with the Squamish- Lillooet Regional District. The Chair noted that Ms. Bertoia’s contribution had been in- estimable, and presented her with an engraved plate and thank-you card. 4.2 OUT OF ORDER It was moved by Director Fellowes and seconded by Director O’Reilly: THAT Item 4.2, Delegation, Resort Municipality of Whistler, be considered out of order. This is Page 2 of the Minutes of a Regular Meeting of the Squamish-Lillooet Regional District Board, held on Monday, February 22, 1999 at 1:10 p.m. CARRIED 4.2 DELEGATION - RESORT MUNICIPALITY OF WHISTLER – WHISTLER COMMUNITY FOREST Bill Barratt, Resort Municipality of Whistler, gave a presentation on Whistler’s proposal to develop a community forest plan. Don MacLaurin advised that he had observed forest parks in New Zealand, which were a successful model for community forests in BC. Cur- rently, he believes the forest is not being managed in an integrated manner with regard to forestry, recreation, parks, and other users. Staffing at Ministry of Forests has been cut in recent years, preventing intensive management. Resort Municipality of Whistler is con- cerned that BC Assets and Lands is operating in isolation from other stakeholders. Discussion was held regarding the annual allowable cut (AAC) in the Soo Timber Supply Area. Whistler stated the AAC will increase slightly once the old licenses are complete. As well, initial growth rate estimates were low and more recent estimates will increase the AAC. It was noted that the Soo Coalition for Sustainable Forests supports the Whistler Com- munity Forests, with some reservations. District of Squamish also supported, provided certain criteria were met, the most notable being that current stakeholders must not be negatively affected. It was moved by Director Lonsdale and seconded by Director Fellowes: THAT the Squamish-Lillooet Regional District supports the Whistler Community Forest proposal, subject to the following: ¨ No job losses in the forest industry that would impact on the SLRD; ¨ No reduction of Annual Allowable Cut in the Soo Timber Supply Area (or on the proposed Community forest land base), that would affect the existing forest license tenure holders and the Small Business Forest Enterprise Program; ¨ No loss of harvesting contracts held by independent contractors with the Forest Li- cense Holders; ¨ No loss of employment for the employees of the contractors.

  • Tourism Labour Market Demand Analysis for the Sea-To-Sky Region May 2006
    TOURISM LABOUR MARKET DEMAND ANALYSIS FOR THE SEA-TO-SKY REGION Prepared for the Sea-to-Sky Tourism Human Resources Strategy Steering Committee by Ruth Emery Canbritic Consultants Ltd. May 2006 Tourism Labour Market Demand Analysis for the Sea-to-Sky Region May 2006 TOURISM LABOUR MARKET DEMAND ANALYSIS FOR THE SEA-TO-SKY REGION REPORT ON FINDINGS Highlights ¾ The current shortfall of workers for the tourism labour market in Whistler is conservatively estimated at 3,500. This number does not fully account for the major seasonal differences and could well be higher for the peak season. The actual number of workers required to make up this shortfall would be significantly higher than 3,500 because of part-time, part-year and seasonal jobs. ¾ Currently many people living in the Squamish-Lillooet area work in Whistler so the 3,500 is a measure of shortage that is beyond the current workforce capacity of the whole Squamish-Lillooet area. The 3,500 plus some additional demand for the peak season has typically been filled by recruitment of workers from elsewhere, in BC, Canada and overseas. ¾ Growth in the four key tourism related industries of accommodation, food and beverage services, recreation and retail trade, is expected to add an additional 2,500 jobs in tourism related activity over the ten years to 2015. ¾ While the majority of the new jobs are expected to be in Whistler, the growth rate for tourism jobs in the surrounding area is projected as being slightly higher than for Whistler itself. ¾ Population growth in the Squamish-Lillooet area, already a little higher than for BC, is expected to see this trend continue.

Box 612, Squamish, BC, Canada V0N 3G0 bDepartment of Earth Sciences, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, BC, Canada V5A 1S6; Emeritus Scientist, Geological Survey of Canada, 101-605 Robson Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6B 5J3 cGeological Survey of Canada, 101-605 Robson Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6B 5J3 Received 3 May 2004; received in revised form 15 December 2004; accepted 19 January 2005 Abstract Lillooet River drains 3850 km2 of the rugged Coast Mountains in southwestern British Columbia, including the slopes of a dormant Quaternary volcano at Mount Meager. A drilling program was conducted 32–65 km downstream from the volcano to search for evidence of anomalous sedimentation caused by volcanism or large landslides at Mount Meager. Drilling revealed an alluvial sequence consisting of river channel, bar, and overbank sediments interlayered with volcaniclastic units deposited by debris flows and hyperconcentrated flows. The sediments constitute the upper part of a prograded delta that filled a late Pleistocene lake. Calibrated radiocarbon ages obtained from drill core at 13 sites show that the average long-term floodplain aggradation rate is 4.4 mm aÀ1 and the average delta progradation rate is 6.0 m aÀ1. Aggradation and progradation rates, however, varied markedly over time. Large volumes of sediment were deposited in the valley following edifice collapse events and the eruption of Mount Meager volcano about 2360 years ago, causing pulses in delta progradation, with estimated rates to 150 m aÀ1 over 50-yr intervals.

CSC, Victoria, Canada BC V8W 3P6 Received 23 December 2002; accepted 27 June 2003 Abstract Two anomalous, gray, silty clay beds are present in ODP cores collected from Saanich Inlet, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. The beds, which date to about 10,500 14C yr BP (11,000 calendar years BP), contain Tertiary pollen derived from sedimentary rocks found only in the Fraser Lowland, on the mainland of British Columbia and Washington just east of the Strait of Georgia. Abundant illite-muscovite in the sediments supports a Fraser Lowland provenance. The clay beds are probably distal deposits of huge floods that swept through the Fraser Lowland at the end of the Pleistocene. Muddy overflow plumes from these floods crossed the Strait of Georgia and entered Saanich Inlet, where the sediment settled from suspension and blanketed diatom-rich mud on the fiord floor.
