Wednesday, September 25, 1996 Vol. 38, No. 39 twooYour Community Newspaper Salt Spring Islandd, B.C. $1 (incl. GST) Amenity zoning 1* splits Mayne mm By VALORIE LENNOX Driftwood Staff The Mayne Island Trust Committee could use King Solomon's wisdom to pass judg- ment on the island's first amenity zoning bylaw, which appears to have divided islanders almost equally. At Saturday's public hearing into the bylaw, comments were bal­ anced between those who feared extra lots would set a precedent for future development and those who welcomed the community benefits \ gained by granting a property owner the right to eight additional lots in a subdivision proposal. The bylaw would establish a new five-acre zone for an uplands parcel on the island. As a result, a 108- acre parcel will be subdivided into 19 lots of 5.7 acres each. Without the rezoning, the land can be subdi­ vided into 11 lots. In exchange for the increased density, the community would gain part of a Village Bay bypass road, a 39-acre park, a five-acre site for a community centre and two wells for future water in Miner's Bay. Approximately 110 people gath­ ered in the Mayne Island School A day at gym for the public hearing.

A lucky break — failure of the CRD to notify the Trust in writing that Hauff had a building permit application submitted last November — gave Hauff the pot. Even if the Trust goes ahead with plans to rezone the property, Hauff will still be able to build his complex. If the Trust is to win anything out of the situation, it will need to make the most of its one remaining advantage: if Hauff builds and the property is rezoned, Hauff's complex will be legally non-con­ forming. This means he will be unable to re-build if a significant portion of the resort is destroyed by fire or any other disaster. It would be better for Hauff if the property use conformed with the zoning. Should he want to operate the resort, it would cement his investment. Should he want to sell either individual units or the entire complex, it would be easier to close the deal. A buyer — not to mention a bank — could be understandably wary of a purchase which could not be re-built if destroyed. So the Trust still has a chip to play by offering to drop the rezoning in exchange for some down-scaling of the proposed 123-unit com­ plex. This means the Trust must compromise. It must be prepared to trade the chip it still holds in order to mitigate the potential impact of the resort on Bullock Lake, on nearby residents and on the island. Hopefully Hauff will also see the benefits of compromise and be wUling to sit down with trustees and negotiate. In the meantime, the Trust also needs to take a second look at its protocol agreement with the Capital Regional District and determine exactly why the notification process did not work as intended.

Unlike most of his countrymen, Campbell, a Republican from California, is pretty knowledgeable about Canada. He studied Canada as a White House fellow, speaks fluent French and is a regular visitor to Quebec. Campbell was prompted to put Canada on the congressional agenda after reading an alarming article in the current issue of Foreign Affairs magazine, an influential U.S. publication. The article warns Americans that Canada could completely balkanize if Quebec separates and that the United States could find itself face-to-face with several unstable territorial entities, not unlike the post-Soviet Union republics. The piece was written by Charles Doran, professor of interna­ tional relations at Johns Hopkins University.
