Call to Order 1205h 2. Adoption of Agenda Moved by B. Gadbois, seconded by J. Hooge and resolved that: the agenda be adopted as presented. Carried, unanimous. 3. Application: Electoral Area B Zoning Amendment (Gagnon, et al) Bylaw No. 851-16 Francis Gagnon (proponent) spoke. ● he had approached CSRD in March 2019 regarding vacation rental, wanted to operate a B and B, which is not a permitted use in CDB1 ● the existing structure consists of a three-bedroom dwelling (note: attached plans show four bedrooms however owner states this is not correct) that communicates with a two- bedroom self-contained suite, all within one building ● states may want to have more than six guests, would rent three bedrooms out of the five in the building , does not plan to advertise online ● states he is the only one in the strata who wants to offer commercial accommodation ● he states, CSRD planner suggested that CDB1 zoning could easily be changed to allow BandB, however in this case it would not work for his purposes because the owner would be residing in the smaller suite and therefore the BandB would not be considered to be in his residence. ● approached strata - because the entire cul-de-sac is common property, issues include road maintenance and shared liability Comments from other Strata Owners ● strata wants it operated only with owner on-site ● strata members present indicated that the strata as a whole would like to dissolve itself due to the many complications associated with the cluster development bylaws, the common property liability, and the limitations on all owners associated with conflicts between CSRD bylaws and Strata Property Act limitations. ● another strata owner, who has a TUP for a vacation (in a separate location from this strata) has an issue with this process, whereby the CSRD is suggesting rezoning one lot within the strata for vacation rental; would also like to see some sort of accreditation or logo for legitimate VR operators to be able to use in their advertising. ● Strata member spoke in support of the vacation rental, however would like to see a Temporary Use Permit rather than rezoning in order to give the strata time to dissolve itself and thus remove any strata complications from the rezoning ● APC Discussion ● general discussion of provincial strata regulations, and possibility that approval for cluster development was made intentionally without BandB as a permitted use out of concern for possible loading of water/septic with commercial accommodation; only supposed to have one dwelling unit per lot; BandB permitting may not have been neglected, but may have been intentional; process for dissolving strata is under provincial jurisdiction, however the CSRD could choose whether or not to support this process. BandB, TUP, and Vacation Rental could increase cluster development definition from original 7 dwelling units, change cluster development from residential to commercial, and conflict with strata development plans, bylaws, unit entitlement, and monthly strata fees. ● member suggested TUP rather than rezoning ● member suggested getting BandB or Vacation Rental zoning would require commercial status for the wells , e.g. require registration, general discussion re: well and septic monitoring for commercial accommodation especially in areas of increased density such as this ● members commended proponent for coming forward with intention for Vacation Rental, rather than just going ahead and operating illegally ● discussion re: owner-operated vacation rentals, lack of will in CSRD to enforce such a rule, could be addressed in strata council.

Seven for, 0 opposed; Carried Moved by P. Humphries , seconded by D.
