Report

DATE: November 20, 2017 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Melinda Smyrl, Planner C.C.: SUBJECT: Zoning Bylaw Amendment Bylaw No. 941, 2018 – Accessory Building Size Requirements

Recommendation:

THAT Council give 1st and 2nd Reading to Zoning Bylaw Amendment Bylaw No. 941, 2018.

AND THAT a Statutory Pubic Hearing be scheduled for February 28, 2018.

Purpose:

To review the allowable gross floor area of accessory residential buildings in the R1 & 2 Single and Two Family Residential zone in the current zoning bylaw.

Discussion:

1. During the review of the Official Community Plan, the desire for larger on site covered storage areas in residential areas was identified as a possible means to improve beautification efforts. At the September 13, 2017 Committee of the Whole meeting, staff and Council discussed removing the minimum square footage for accessory buildings in the R1&2 zoning district.

2. Removing the Maximum Gross Floor Area clause would allow for larger buildings on larger lots. On smaller lots, for example those typical in the tree subdivision, may, on a cumulative scale, affect the general form and character of those neighbourhoods. However, the overall size of the accessory building is still limited by the overall site coverage (40%) and the definition that the accessory residential building is accessory to the primary building. Further the height of an accessory residential building would remain 6.0m/19.68ft. Should a development proposal exceed the 40% lot coverage, the applicant would have to apply for a rezoning.

3. This particular amendment was scheduled to return to Council for consideration as part of the larger zoning bylaw review package; however, given that the timeline has extended past initial expectations and the desire in the community to move this forward staff are presenting this bylaw amendment ahead of the larger zoning bylaw review package.

4. Should council grant 1st and 2nd Readings to the bylaw the proposed bylaw will be forwarded to MOTi for their review ahead of a 3rd Reading.

COUNCIL MEETING

DISTRICT OF SICAMOUS

Information Report

REPORT DATE: February 28, 2018 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Kelly Bennett SUBJECT: December 2017 Financial Report FILE NO:

RECOMMENDATION:

That Council receive the report for information.

PURPOSE:

To provide Council with a summary of the District's Operations for the year ending December 31, 2017 and Financial Position as at December 31, 2017.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:

Financial Position

• Highlights related to balance sheet accounts at December 31, 2017:

o Cash/term deposits of $2.0 million in unrestricted funds and $11.8 million in restricted reserve/DCC funds; o Property taxes receivable of $583,486; o Infrastructure grants receivable of $800,786 – this represents receivables from the Province related to the costs spent on the wastewater treatment plant upgrades and related sewer works under various grants (SCF and CWWF); o Loan payable balances of $8,0030,057 – this represents $302,443 of short-term borrowing for the purchase of 200 Main Street, $3,627,614 of long-term borrowing for Phase 2 of the sewer collection system extension and $4,100,000 of borrowing for the construction of the water treatment plant.

Attached are summaries of the operating activities for each fund for the year ending December 31, 2017. Overall the revenues and expenditures are in-line with expectations.

General Fund

Revenues

• Property taxes (net) – Actual revenue is slightly different than budgeted, due to changes in assessed values received from BC Assessment after the revised roll was complete.

• Grants – provincial – The grant revenue is mainly comprised of the strategic community investment fund (of which $368,053 was received in June), with other grants received related to Community Works Fund, a regional bioenergy feasibility andPage Canada 14 ofDay 103 celebrations.

• Sale of services – This represents various miscellaneous items such as permit and development fees, library rent, recreational programs, cemetery and other items. Revenue is higher than usual due to $130k billed this year for the use of our fire trucks and staff in other jurisdictions.

• Cost-sharing functions – This is revenue was received in August from the CSRD related to various shared functions.

• Transfer from reserves – These transfers represent amounts from prior year’s surplus ($1,001,664) and the operating reserve ($86,282). Increase over budget and prior year relates to a one-time transfer made in the year from prior year’s surplus to the general capital fund.

Expenditures

• General government services – This includes all legislative, administrative, financial and municipal office costs. Overall costs are in line with budget and prior year actual.

• Protective services – This includes bylaw, fire, disaster and building inspection costs. Overall costs are higher than prior year and budget as a result of additional costs paid for firefighting in other jurisdictions, which were fully recovered by the Province (see sale of service revenue).

• Transportation services – This includes all transportation costs related to public works, snow removal, tree-topping, street sweeping, storm sewers and various other items. Overall costs are slightly higher than budget due to higher snow removal costs, general public works labour, IT costs and road patching.

• Environmental health – This relates to Mosquito control, in which the expense fluctuates from year to year. Overall costs are slightly lower than prior year and budget.

• Public Health/Welfare – This relates to cemetery costs which the actual expenses are less than originally budgeted and prior year actual. . • Environmental and development services – This includes all planning and community development costs. There are multiple projects budgeted to be completed that were partially complete or under budget, resulting in a larger decrease when compared to budget. These items include HVS costs (budget of $30k), Parks master plan (budget of $20k), Channel Dredging costs (budget of $100k), Bylaw reviews ($95k).

• Recreation services – This includes all recreation, parks and special event costs. These costs increased over the summer months, when most of the events took place and when the District had additional staff working on park maintenance. Increase over prior year actual and budget as a result of increased efforts in these areas during the 2017 year. Some of these additional costs were offset by additional revenues.

• Economic development and marketing– These costs relate to running the Visitor Information Center, the start-up of a Development Corporation and the purchase of branding and marketing materials. Costs are in line with budget.

• Debt repayment – This debt relates to the purchase of 200 Main Street. The debt payments are made twice a year, in May and November 2017. Last year of debt payment is 2020.

• Transfer to reserves and other funds – The transfers represent amounts to general capital ($170k), reserves ($1.8M) and water and sewer funds ($279k) to cover debt payments. A greater contribution was made to reserves as a result of a one-time transfer of $1m from prior year’s surplus to the general capital fund.

Page 15 of 103

Capital

Generator for City Hall $ 91,504 Webcams $ 20,000 Computer equipment ($ 551) Server upgrades ($ 793) Medical Clinic $ 8,336

Server upgrades and computer equipment are slightly over budget. The generator for City Hall and webcams were not complete, and have been moved forward to the 2018 year.

• Protective services – Capital expenditures under (over) budget for the 2017 year are as follows:

Pumper #4 replacement $ 500,000 Command vehicle skid $ 434 Building – sewer and storm $ 30,000 Building – generator $ 31,505

The command vehicle skid has been purchased under budget. With works currently be undertaken to complete the purchase of a new pumper and generators for the building however these will not be complete until the 2018 year.

Page 16 of 103 Water Fund

Revenues

• Water revenue – This includes utility and connection fees. Balance is consistent with expectations and in line with budget.

• Transfer from general fund – This represents amounts transferred from the general fund to cover long term debt costs.

Expenditures

• Maintenance services – This includes administration, Mara system maintenance, hydrant costs and the operational costs of the water treatment plant (actual $227k, with a budget of $230k). Actual costs are higher than budget due to various additional operational expenses, which include Interior Health testing, waterline flushing and other distribution and pumping costs.

• Long-term debt – relates to interest paid on the loan for the water treatment plant, of which the debt has now been converted to long-term, with scheduled interest and loan payments starting in the 2018 year.

• Transfer to reserves – This represents amounts transferred to water reserves for the current year.

Capital

• The Kappel/Riverside waterline upgrade ties to a grant that was applied for and not obtained – therefore this capital project is not expected to proceed in the 2017 year. Initial works have been done related to the water extension to North Solsqua Sicamous Road and the Hillier Road extension is complete.

Sewer Fund

Revenues

• Sewer revenue – This includes user and connection fees. Balance is consistent with expectations and in line with budget. The revenue is higher than prior year actual as a result of more connections made and having a full year of revenue as a result.

• Transfer from general fund – this is to cover debt payments.

Expenditures

• Sewer services – This includes administration, collection system maintenance and operational costs. Actual costs are in line with budget, however higher than last year due to an additional $75k in trucked waste costs to remove sludge.

• Long-term debt – Principal and interest payments are in-line with expectations

• Transfer to reserves – This represents amounts transferred to sewer reserves for the current year.

Capital

• Planning and design of the various wastewater project upgrades has been completed, with some components constructed. The remaining portion of the projects will be moved forward to the 2018 year.

Action Report

REPORT DATE: February 19, 2018 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Melinda Smyrl, Planner SUBJECT: Development Variance Permit Application for Lot B, District Lot 497, KDYD, Plan FILE NO: KAP54019 (1225 Eagle Pass Way – Ridgeview Mobile Home Park)

RECOMMENDATION:

THAT Council support the Development Variance Permit for Lot B, District Lot 497, KDYD, Plan KAP54019 (1225 Eagle Pass Way) to reduce the rear yard setback for proposed units #22, #21 and 20 from 6.0m to 4.5m subject to the adoption of Zoning Bylaw No. 101, 1993, Amending Bylaw No. 931, 2017;

AND THAT Council directs staff to issue the Development Variance Permit once all of the conditions have been satisfied.

PURPOSE:

In addition to the rezoning of the property from C1 – Town Centre Commercial to R4 – Mobile Home Residential, the owner is requesting a variance for three proposed new units.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:

Background

The subject property is currently zoned C1 – Town Centre Commercial. Zoning Amendment Bylaw no. 391, which would rezone the property to R4 – Mobile Home Park Residential was given 3rd Reading following a Public Hearing at the January 28, 2018 Regular Council Meeting. The owner continues to work through completing the conditions before the Bylaw returns to Council for adoption.

In order to place 3 new units on the property, consistent with the Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 931, 2017 the owner is requesting to vary the side yard setback (Section 603(3)(b)(6)) setback from 6.0m to 4.5m, as shown on the site plan below (see Site Plan 1, Units #20,#21 and #22.) The owner has stated that the development plan is to move the existing double wide southward on the property (see Site Plan 2, Unit #8). The owner has stated that the sewer connection project for the mobile home park would be viable with the addition of these 3 units.

When considering a variance a number of factors are taken into consideration. Generally, these factors include the intent of the Zoning Bylaw, potential negative impacts to adjacent properties and neighbourhood form and character. The proposed locations for the new units while increasing the density of the development is contemplated as part of the rezoning application which has been supported to date. In the case of the intent of the Zoning Bylaw’s requirement for side yard setbacks in the R4 zone, the area provides a buffer between adjacent uses and the proposed locations. In this case, the owner has stated that the rear yards of the units will be landscaped and there will be no further development within the 4.5m setback area. Page 22 of 103 The relocation of the double wide unit to a location at the south end of the park would not require any variances.

Relevant History: The Ridgeview Mobile Home Park was developed as a mobile home park with 13 units, as permitted under the R4 zone for developments serviced by a private septic system. In 1996 the property owner at the time applied for an additional 3 units to be added, advising that approval was granted under the notice that once sewer was available the property would be connected by the owner.

At the Regular Meeting of Council on January 28, 2018 a Statutory Public Hearing was held and Council granted 3rd Reading to Zoning Bylaw No. 101, 1993, Amending Bylaw No. 931, 2017.

Applicant Response The applicant has been provided with the opportunity to provide input regarding this report and offers the following: Modern manufactured mobile homes tend to be larger is comparison to older models of mobile homes. This Development Variation Permit will help facilitate the placement of modern mobile homes in site 20, 21 and 22.

Public Notification: Pursuant to Development Application Procedures Bylaw No. 639, section 6(b)(ii) Public Notifications were mailed to all registered property owners of land situated with 50 from the subject property on February 14, 2018.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:

None noted.

LEGAL IMPLICATIONS:

Dear Ms. Smyrl,

Re: Development Variance Permit Application - Lot B Plan KAPS54019, DL 497 (1225 Eagle Pass Way)

With regards to this proposed development, I do not have a problem with the 3 trailers being placed as proposed; but I have a few questions with regards to the double wide being placed south.

1. I am particularly concerned that that fire fighting equipment might not be able make the turn to access the inner circle of residences.

2. I am also wondering if there would be enough clearance to move trailers in or out of the park.

3. Another concern I have is the present sewage system which I believe has a septic tank in the middle of the green area in the centre of the open area where the double wide seems to be planned on being moved.

4. My final concern is snow removal. While I was in residence during the winter, snow was deposited on that green area as well as on the lawn on the west side of home. I surely do not want what was stored on the centre green now just moved to "my" lawn. In years of heavy snowfall, storing all that snow there would be impossible. I would also like to mention that the storm drain is right in front of my side door and very close to the lawn where snow might be stored, to melt in the spring. Covering the drain would cause problems for me.

Sincerely, Janis Belgum

Action Report

REPORT DATE: February 19, 2018 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Melinda Smyrl, Planner SUBJECT: Temporary Use Permit for Lot 31, District Lot 452, KDYD, Plan 3547 (621 Riverside FILE NO: Avenue) 18-004-TUP

RECOMMENDATION:

THAT Council not support the application for a Temporary Use Permit in order to construct a Sprung Tent structure on the lands legally described as Lot 31, District Lot 452, KDYD, Plan 3547 and having a civic address of 621 Riverside Avenue.

PURPOSE:

Review of the application requesting temporary use of the subject property for a personal storage tent on a property zoned for commercial uses.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:

1. The subject property (see map below) is designated in the Official Community Plan as within the Town Centre Riverside Transition Character Area and is zoned as C4 - Waterfront Commercial. The lot is approximately 8540 sq.m. or 2.0 acres in areas and was created by a recent lot consolidation. 2. The title of the property is encumbered by a covenant in favour of the District of Sicamous which restricts uses on the property to marine storage. The covenant was registered on the title in 2010 as part of a larger development plan in which the District Council agreed to rezone the property from residential to commercial without requiring the off-site works to be completed on the basis that the property would not be redeveloped for another use without the off-site works being completed. 3. The applicant is proposing to construct a temporary Sprung structure that would be approximately 3200 ft2. Sprung Structure toward the rear of the property. The applicant has stated that building would be used for personal storage. The proposal does not include the upgrade of any services or off-site works to a standard reflective of the Town Centre. The applicant has stated that redevelopment of the site for commercial uses consistent with the OCP and zoning bylaw is being considered in their future use of the site; however, this application is to address a current need on their part. 4. When considering TUP applications staff review the District’s OCP policy related to TUPs and issues such as setbacks, adjacent properties and adjacent land uses are considered. While a TUP may be considered it should be noted that the personal use of the unit in a commercial area is not consistent with the OCP policy on TUPs. The TUP policy is to consider temporary commercial uses in areas not designated commercial. Further, the proposed structure is not consistent with the design guidelines of the Official Community Plan. In addition, the size of the structure would be difficult to remove should the District be in the position to forcibly remove the structure.

Policy (Existing/Relevance/None) Page 27 of 103 Official Community Plan No. 918, 2016 Temporary Use Permits, Section 4.12 a. Temporary commercial uses pursuant to Section 493 of the Local Government Act to allow uses not permitted in the existing zone may be considered within the Official Community Plan areas designated Highway Commercial, Marine, Residential and Industrial in which subsequent temporary commercial use permits must consider such things as: a. Potential conflicts with existing commercial uses b. Adverse effects on adjoining or surrounding properties c. Registration of Section 219 covenant and statutory right of way as well as a posting of security to ensure the temporary use will be discontinued after the designated 3 to 6 year period and to ensure that the site will be restored to its pre-development condition d. Permit Lapse and extension conditions which would allow only one temporary use permit per property

Official Community Plan No. 918, 2016 Town Centre Development Permit Area, Riverside Transition Area, Section 4.0 and Section 4.4.

Public Notification: Pursuant to Section 6 (b) (ii) notices were mailed to all property owners within a 50m radius of the subject property on February 13, 2018.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:

Should Council wish to support the TUP application it is recommended that an estimate for the removal of the structure be provided by the applicant’s architect or engineer and a security be imposed upon the applicant prior to the issuance of the TUP so that should the District have to remove the structure at a later date, the costs could be covered by the security.

LEGAL IMPLICATIONS:

None noted.

ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PRIORITIES:

None noted.

District of Sicamous Box 219, 446 Main Street Sicamous, BC, V0E 2V0 250-836-2477

Attn: Melinda Smyrl, Planner; Dale Reid, Building Inspector Re: ‘Temporary Use Permit’ for property located at 621 Riverside Avenue (Sicamous, BC)

This letter is written on behalf of the applicant/Owner regarding a Temporary Use Permit application for the above- noted address.

The Owner recently consolidated two existing lots (613 & 621 Riverside, each approximately 1 acre) into a single lot: 621 Riverside Avenue (2.12 acres). Prior to that, the Owner has cleared the site of existing derelict buildings and unmaintained vegetation, leaving a clean surface of granular material. This cleanup of the site extended to helping some of the neighbours (upon request) remove unwanted materials from the back of their properties.

Additionally, the Owner has constructed security fencing around the perimeter of the property.

The Owner is currently exploring development options for the property that are intended to fit into the OCP vision and Zoning designation for this part of Sicamous. In the meantime, the Owner is requesting – via a Temporory Use Permit – to erect a Sprung structure. The structure will consist a 2-course base of concrete lock-blocks (sitting on grade), which support a metal structural frame over which a polyurethane membrane is stretched.

The proposed structure is approximately 100’x40’ in size and would be situated in the southeast corner of the property, respecting the required 6m rear-yard and 3m side-yard setbacks (see attached Site Plan & structure diagram). Sprung structures are commonly used as light-weight, easily-erected storage facilities. Because they don’t rely on typical frost footings and use a pre-engineered structural frame, Sprung structures are quickly erected and demounted.

The Owner is intending to use the Sprung structure to store recreational vehicles (boats, RVs, etc.) for non-commercial use during the period that the Temporary Use Permit remains valid. The Owner is also intending to comply with the associated requirements (bonding for structure removal, registering of Right-of-Way, etc.) as determined by the District of Sicamous staff and council.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Yours very truly,

From: Peter Moxness To: Melinda Smyrl Cc: DCO; Jenn Piekarczyk Subject: Re: 621 Riverside Date: February-22-18 7:06:55 AM

District of Sicamous Council, The owners at Mara Landing represented by the Strata Council of KAS 2052 would like to ask the District to oppose the proposal at 621 Riverside to erect a large tent on its site for the owner’s personal use. We support the strict adherence of the town’s designated zoning . Sicamous has such natural beauty and scenery . Complimentary to the beauty are recent improvements to the town’s infrastructure such as : District municipal building/Library, water treatment plant, arterial street improvements, widening, new sidewalks, street lighting, flower decor, new traffic circle, plus the beautification and investments all the private businesses create. All great news for Sicamous ! Council has made great strides in its approach to town beautification, with sensible new branding of our town logos, new brand image, a comprehensive strategic community plan , all of which demonstrate leadership and thoughtfulness that improves and strengthens the desirability and the values within our town. However, our town is still fraught with a legacy of mixed land use types that create a mish mash image, a hodge podge of zonings that conflict with many of its neighbours. This application for a large 3200sq ft. large tent structure at 621 Riverside is inconsistent with what most people would describe as “personal use”. It sounds dubious. An empty tent structure such as the one proposed will be an eye sore, and when filled with machinery or other “personal” items it may resemble a tent junkyard, as would the contents of most storage lockers. This could easily be a blight in the neighbourhood that could remain “temporary “for up to 3 years , plus an additional 3 yrs at renewal! This is not adding value to our town. We, representing the 66 owners at Mara Landing urge the District to uphold our property values. We already have experienced a project to our South, the Three Buoys abandoned Condo project that is a large eye sore to our : street, the waterfront, and our town. We as neighbours are already very anxious about the deterioration of that structure to the area. We need beneficial developments, demonstrating that our Town of Sicamous is a going concern, and a place where good things are happening! We urge the District to uphold the covenants in place at 621 Riverside , which restrict its commercial uses. We support adhering to the land use application for only it’s intended use. We do not support tents, or an application without the agreed upon offsite works that ,as we understand ,were conditions made to any subsequent owners , ie C4 waterfront commercial zoning specifically allowing only a Marine Storage facility, including mandatory off site upgrades to the : lamp standards, curbs, sidewalks, and landscaping as well. Please consider our request.

Sincerely , Mara Landing Strata Council representing 66 taxpayer/owners.

Good Morning Mr. Moxness,

Page 32 of 103

The property is zoned C4 – Waterfront Commercial; however, there is a covenant on title that limits the uses on the property to Marine Storage. The covenant was required to be registered by the owner when the property was rezoned from residential to commercial as part of a larger development project that ultimately did not move forward. At the time the developer did not want to undertake the off-site works such as sidewalks, lamp standards or landscaping that they would have had to under a typical rezoning of the lands. The Council at the time agreed that the property could be rezoned to commercial uses and not have upgrade the road frontage so long as the use was limited to the use designated as part of that application, this agreement was secured by the registration of the covenant. Any other uses, on a permanent basis, under the C4 zone are required to complete the off-site works. Despite the development not moving forward the covenant is still valid as the District is locked into the agreement with any property owner moving forward and future Development Permits for the site and uses (for permanent commercial uses) would include discussion on the discharge or removal of the covenant given the proposal and ensuring the off-sites works are completed by the owner/developer at the time of application.

In the current application the owner would like to erect the sprung tent to use for personal storage and they are not proposing any commercial uses on the property. The owner has stated that they would like to develop the property with commercial uses; however, they are not making such an application at this time.

A Temporary Use Permit is an application option that may be applied for when a proposed use does not meet the uses within the given zone and the owner does not intend to operate for an extended period of time. For instance, an atco trailer as an office on a construction site may be a temporary use on a property that is under construction for a residential condo development or temporary camping grounds in a park for a weekend event. TUPs may be issued by Council for a 3 year period and may be renewed only once. If the use continues for a longer period then the property should be rezoned.

I hope this information is helpful and if I can provide anything further please let me know. If you are preparing a submission in advance of the February 28 meeting for Council to consider in their deliberation of the application you may forward it to me by email or to our Deputy Corporate Officer (Julia Payne) and we will ensure it is included on the agenda. I have cc’d Julia in this email so you may also use Reply All

Hi Melinda,

I just want to gather a bit of info before I put forth an opinion on the proposed development application at 621 Riverside .

Can you please tell me what the current zoning ,C4 waterfront commercial allows for this property ? Is the application for a spring tent structure a different use? Can you please describe the timeframe for what says “temporary” application? Can you say what the actual business use will be?

I watched the progress of removing the residence, clearing of vegetation, and fencing of this property. Since we are neighbours, it will impact the immediate neighbourhood .

Dear Melinda

Thank you for your request to respond to the above application. We are and have been permanent residents of Mara Landing for the last 19 years. We formally object to this application for the following reasons:

We do not know what kindof industry or operation is taking place. The applicant has not disclosed what type of industry or activities are to be conducted. Thiswould be important information for residents to make an informed decision. is this business conforming to the most recent OCP plans for RiversideAvenue which we believe to be store front at the street and other activities behind? Does the applicant have a long-term plan for this property? 0 How long is temporary? Sicamous has a designated Industrial park. Why does the district not insist that industry locate there? We feel that a business or industry that does not conform to the OCP plan now will jeopardize property values along RiversideAvenue. It is easier to make a business conform now rather than try to change mistakes later.

Once again thank you for allowing us to comment a we look forward to your response.

Dear Melinda:

Thank you for your information package about the above-mentioned file. You did not give a "usage" for this parcel of land. Is it commercial? (storage, parties, parking???) Is a family going to grow something there? Is something going to be stock piled there? You said it was temporary - not sure what that exactly means, as you do not give a time-frame listed.

I have a few comments and I will keep this e-mail simple:

1. As you may be aware, from May 1st - Oct. 1st there is a back up of traffic on Riverside Ave. Back up meaning trucks pulling boats illegally parked in front of Mara Landing on the side walk: being cleaned before going into 3 boys, left there while visiting at 3 boys, stopped and parked while trying to locate some one at Mara Landing. All long week-end traffic is illegally parked on Mara Landing's sidewalk, which makes it extremely difficult to walk to the boat launch or take your dog for a walk or when the local kids are biking or boarding, it gets crowded and it is, on occasion very dangerous trying to cross the road. I have witnessed dogs running between parked trucks/boats and almost getting run over, not to say that young kids can run out on the road as well. An accident is waiting to happen.

2. I have personally waited for up to 15 minutes while the gate area has been blocked by trucks and boats and I've tried patiently to get into my condo area, with groceries, other family friends, etc. I don't think this is very fair for us, as we certainly pay a premium for our taxes to live there. So, this may be revisited by your town council - as the by-law truck comes by usually only on a saturday evening if kids are being loud, walking home from the beach areas.

3. Signage for that area referred to has been "private - keep out". is this space to be alarm monitored? Will alarms go off at all hours of the day and night? Will big lights be put up? Are large security lights to be on at night?

I am against this parcel of land being used for "something"/a tent, and "usage" that has not been disclosed to me.

Sincerely, Mrs. Gail Fletcher unit 31 Mara Landing

DISTRICT OF SICAMOUS Council Report

DATE: September 11, 2017 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Melinda Smyrl, Planner C.C.: SUBJECT: Development Permit (with Variances) for Lot 1, District Lot 497, KDYD, Plan 12390 (534 Main Street)

Recommendation:

“THAT Council support the Development Permit for the land legally described as Lot 1, District Lot 497, KDYD, Plan 12390 (534 Main Street);

AND THAT Council support a variance Schedule B of Zoning Bylaw No. 101, 1993, reducing the required number of parking stalls from 25.67 to 16 parking stalls;

AND FURTHER THAT Council direct staff to issue the Development Permit with Variances in order to construct a mountain sports repair sales and retail shop”

Issue:

The applicant is proposing to redevelop the existing building to operate a mountain sports repair and sales dealer.

Discussion:

A. Background

1. The subject property is located at the roundabout intersection of Main Street and Highway 97A (see Subject Property Map below). The subject property is zoned C1 – Town Centre Commercial and is within the Town Centre Development Permit Area and designated as Town Centre in the Official Community Plan. The subject property is 0.396 acres in area.

Page 38 of 103

2. The applicant is proposing to renovate the existing building and to operate a mountain sports dealership, including servicing and retail sales. A small office and space that may be used by the mountain sports association is proposed for a portion of the second floor of the building.

3. The site plan for the proposed development shows 16 parking stalls. Under Schedule B of the Zoning Bylaw 25.67 stalls are required given the proposed uses. The applicant is requesting that Council consider a variance to reduce the required parking for the site from 25.67 stalls to 16 stalls.

4. Staff are supportive of the proposed development as the refurbishment of the existing conforms to the Official Community Plan visions (see Policy section below for details). The proposal would be an attractive addition to the roundabout and would draw people into Main Street. The development itself would be a positive contribution to local economic development and economic diversification as well has help to promote commercial development – key guiding principles of the OCP.

5. With regard to the variance request, staff are supportive of the reduction of parking spaces as with the retention of the existing building the site is restrictive in terms of useable area for parking. It should be noted that the applicant is working with Ministry of Transportation staff and the neighbouring property owner to secure parking beyond the existing property lines of the property; however, to move forward in the timeframe of the applicant a variance is being sought prior to the conclusion of those efforts. In order to alleviate what could become problematic timing staff are requesting that the applicant and/or operator as a condition of the business license restrict deliveries to those hours outside of school arrivals and dismissals at Eagle River Senior Secondary as the adjacent lot has a bus pullout located near the subject property and it is anticipated that deliveries during these hours may inhibit movement through the roundabout.

B. Policy (Existing/Relevance/None)

1. The Official Community Plan designates the subject property as within the Town Centre Development Permit Area. Specifically, this proposal meets the following sections of the OCP: • 4.1.9. Visually interesting building with unique character and building entrances. • 4.3.2 (d) Building massing should avoid long continuous blank walls. • 4.3.2 (e) Building massing should orient entrances to Main Street […] • 4.3.6 Businesses provide services for local residents while creating an interesting commercial environment that draws visitors to a resort atmosphere. • 4.3.10 Building materials in the Town Centre Character Area include […] metal and glass.

C. Relevant History:

The existing building is to be refurbished for a mountain sports shop. Previous development on the subject property has seen a gas station, hardware store, a bike repair shop, sunglasses and beachwear store, a farmers market and a recycling depot. As per Provincial legislation a Contaminate Sites Profile was submitted to the District and forwarded to the Province to ensure that the redevelopment of the site was consistent with provincial legislation regarding contaminated sites.

D. Applicant’s Response:

The applicant has been provided with a copy of the staff report for their review and the opportunity to provide Council with their comments regarding the report.

E. Public Notification:

Pursuant to Development Application Procedures Bylaw No. 639, section 6(b)(ii) written notifications regarding the proposed development have been mailed to all registered property owners of land situated within 50 metres of the subject property September 5, 2017. Notices were sent to 4 properties.

F. BUDGET IMPLICATIONS:

The proposed development will not include and building additions or construction which would trigger development Cost Charges.

Respectfully submitted,

Good day Council and municipal staff,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank municipal staff in the ongoing efforts with concerns, objectives and errors respective to works at 534 Main Street Sicamous BC.

With past experiences with the Highways contractor using the lands at 530 Main street during construction of the roundabout we have made it policy any future use of lands in our inventory to be in a form ofa land use contract ( Sept. 2017)

On May 18"‘,2017 I was requested by Councilor Bushellfor a meeting with himself and Mr. Hancockon May 19"‘,2017 at 530 Main Street.

At this meeting it was indicated their interest to opening a business at this location on the intent ofthe purchase of property 534 Main Street at the same time conversation was introduced of the interest to purchase of 530 Main Street. Which time my response was not interested in selling the property. Thereafter there had been some brief conversations back and forth during the following month. Shortly thereafter Mr. Bushell had verbally requested permission to use the south boundary portion of 530 to install some new siding onto the building, with past experience LNBhighways contractor leaving the property in shambles, I agreed to the conditional use: "upon completion of the installation of the siding the property would be returned to its’ prior condition and there after the boundaries would be respected accordingly”. During the early days ofJuly in my travels I had noticed the commencement of works beginning at 534.

During my travels Nov. 29"‘/17, passing by on Hwy. 1 with a glance I was admiring the new exterior of the building when it was noticed of an exterior door installed on the north wall ( this is the first indication of concern ). The following day I had sent an email to the building inspector requesting details and how this could be allowed, (there was no prior communications regarding this door). With a response from Mr. Reid with an insert from Mr. Parliament a brief response was received Dec.5"‘/17at which time I responded asking how a door can cross the boundary — without response.

~~Good day Council and municipal staff,~~

It has come to our attention with the major development at the neighboring property 534 Main Street, an exterior door, opening has been installed on the North exterior wall of the building. This door when operated crosses the property boundary onto 530 Main Street.

We the property owners of 530 Main Street voice a strong objective to this door. We will not take any responsibility and/orliability for and not limit to personal injury or death for any person(s) to the uncontrollable exit way what so ever.

~~We would also like to bring to the attention there is not a land use agreement in place between stakeholders of 530 and 534 Main Street written or verbal.~~

~~Honourable John Horgan, MLA Premier of British Columbia P.O. Box 9041 Stn Prov Govt Victoria, BC V8W 9E1~~

~~Dear Premier Horgan:~~

~~Re: Alberta – British Columbia Trade War~~

The boycott of British Columbia wine to the Province of Alberta has a substantial financial threat to greater Oliver’s agricultural sector, wine industry, and tourism sector. As Mayor of Oliver, I appeal to you as Premier of this great Province to engage now with Premier Notley to end this detrimental trade war.

Local workers, farmers, wine and tourism businesses in British Columbia will feel the immediate affect by loss of income. Every individual worker and business will be worse off financially, and the net loss to both provinces and our national economies will be significant. An interprovincial trade dispute has far reaching affects but immediately to the local worker and business owner, who do not want this dispute to continue any longer.

Oliver is proud to be an agricultural community, and in recognition that it has the most acres of grapes and the most wineries of any single jurisdiction in Canada can declare itself as the Wine Capital of Canada. That being said, Oliver must defend itself against the impact of a trade war with the Province of Alberta.

A direct result of the boycott of British Columbia wine to the Province of Alberta is now threatening funding, through a bi-lateral agreement with the Government of Canada, to repair the Gallagher Lake Siphon. If the Government of Canada and the Province of British Columbia cannot enter into a bi-lateral agreement, because of an inter-provincial trade dispute, the total potential losses to the Oliver area alone are approximately $172 million to the agriculture and wine industryi.

~~Page 93 of 103 Economic Impact – Gallagher Lake Siphon~~

The Town of Oliver water system provides water to customers inside the Town of Oliver as well as to customers in the surrounding rural area extending approximately 10 km north and 10 km south of the municipal boundaries. Town of Oliver water customers use water for typical uses such as:

~~(1) Drinking and cooking (2) Washing and sanitation (3) Commercial operations (4) Industrial processes (5) Irrigation~~

Oliver is a rural community whose economy is based on primary and secondary agricultural businesses. Most farms served by the Oliver water system are family farms, many of which provide then primary or only source of income for the resident farmer. Secondary agricultural industries include fruit packaging operations and approximately 25 separate wineries (10% of all wineries in Canada).1

Oliver is declared the “Wine Capital of Canada” in recognition that it has the most acres of grapes and the most wineries of any single jurisdiction in Canada. In addition to adding value to local grape crops, wineries are also a major tourist draw for the area, including Oliver, Osoyoos and Penticton.

The natural climate and landscape of Oliver is classified as desert. The original creation of Oliver was the result of a major irrigation project built by the Provincial government as the South Okanagan Lands Project in the 1920s. Without irrigation, crops grown in the Oliver area will fail.

If irrigation water is not available for an extended period, perennial plants (e.g. fruit trees and grape vines) will die. This will incur expensive replanting costs and will take from 5 to 7 years to recover full crop yields, resulting in losses extending over several years.

The Oliver water system supplies irrigation water to 401 connections for over 5,000 acres of agricultural crops. Almost 500 of these acres are on the Osoyoos Indian Reserve irrigating vineyards operated by the Osoyoos Indian Band.

~~Page 94 of 103 Using mapping data supplied by the Ministry of Agriculture, it has been determined that the Town of Oliver provided irrigation water to the following crop areas:~~

Crop Type Acres Grapes 2829.7 Apples 639.0 Cherries 629.6 Peaches/Nectarines 341.8 Vegetables 371.0 Tree fruit crop (mixed) 29.0 Plums 88.0 Apricots 32.0 Pasture and Forage 43.2 Pears 14.0 Forestry stock 7.0 Commercial greenhouse 28.0 Total Acres 5052.3

Based on crop values per acre supplied by the Ministry of Agriculture, the loss in the first year alone if irrigation water is disrupted would be approximately $39 million for Oliver water customers. If water was disrupted for long enough to result in a die-off of perennial plant stocks, then based on Ministry of Agriculture data, the replanting cost would be approximately $28 million for Oliver water customers. After replanting, perennial plants typically take from five to nine years to resume full production. Assuming an average of 50% production loss over these recovery years, the further losses would total over $104 million. The total potential losses from the current year crop failure, replanting and crop recovery delays described above total approximately $172 million. This amount is for basic crop loss only at the farm gate.

~~For the 401 agricultural irrigation connections serviced by the town the average losses without water will be:~~

(1) Current year losses = $39 million / 401 = $97,300 / connection (2) Replanting cost = $28 million / 401 = $69,800 / connection (3) Recovery time losses = $104 million / 401 = $259,350 / connection (4) Total potential loss = $172 million / 401 = $428,900 /connection

While farm sizes vary, a typical connection suffering the above losses services a 10-acre family farm. Value-added losses would be in addition to the above losses. For example, one ton of grapes valued at the farm gate at $2,000 will produce about 300 bottles of wine, which at $20 per bottle would be worth $6,000, producing a multiplier of 3.

~~Dear Minister Farnworth:~~

~~As expressed by other local governments, the City of Enderby strongly supports the sharing of revenue generated by the sale of cannabis with local government.~~

The legalization of cannabis willresult in additional costs for local government. The financial impact on local governments include social services, land use, planning, business licensing, bylaw enforcement, and ?re services.

The City of Enderby respectfully requests that the Province agrees to share at least 50% of its cannabis-related revenues with local governments. This willhelp local governments offset some of the costs associated with legalization and ensure that taxpayers, and the local government programs they rely on, are not unduly burdened by this decision.

~~Dear Minister Heyman:~~

RE: Prevention of Invasive Zebra and Quagga Mussels The District of Sicamous submitted a resolution at the 2017 Union of British Columbia Municipalities Annual Convention that was endorsed, requesting more funding from the Province of British Columbia to increase awareness and education for the threat of zebra and quagga mussels into British Columbia lakes.

The Squamish-Lillooet Regional District (SLRD) is writing to express its support of more funding and initiatives being put in place to guard against invasive mussel species. The SLRD contains some of the most spectacular waterways in British Columbia and affords an endless range of professional and recreational opportunities for outdoor adventure for residents and visitors alike. The SLRD is concerned with the devastating effects invasive zebra and quagga mussels would have on the SLRD’s and on British Columbia’s lakes and waterways as well as on wildlife and human health.

It would only take one watercraft to transport and introduce the species to a new location in British Columbia. Once the invasive species contaminate new waters, they would be able to spread throughout all waters connected to the introduction site through streams, rivers and lakes.

~~The introduction of invasive mussel species in British Columbia would have negative effects on wildlife and human health and on the economy in British Columbia.~~

 From a wildlife and human health perspective, the mussels produce toxins which are transferred up the food chain and their feces promote the growth of algae that contains a liver toxin that is dangerous to wildlife, pets and humans who venture into or drink from the water source directly or indirectly through a residential system.

 There could be widespread effects on the economy, including damage to boats, residential water intakes and pipes, fire-suppression systems, hydroelectric dams and agricultural irrigation systems. The mussels would also threaten fish and fisheries, as they coat streams which makes it difficult for fish to spawn.

~~Members: District of Squamish, Resort Municipality of Whistler, Village of Pemberton, District of Lillooet, Electoral Areas A, B, C, and D~~

~~– 2 –~~

The SLRD requests that the Province of British Columbia initiate a mandatory and permanent inspection and decontamination program at interprovincial and international borders so as to more robustly protect against the introduction of the invasive mussel species into British Columbia’s lakes and waterways. The boater registration process should involve some mandatory education in respect of invasive mussel species.

~~Hi Julia:~~

Thank you for the concern regarding Zebra and Quagga mussels. As an Agriculture Fieldman in a jurisdiction where irrigation is prevalent we fully understand the consequences if these invasive mussels become established. With that said I feel the Government of Alberta is the on right course when it comes to education, awareness and prevention.

~~If you would like to see more on what Alberta is doing go to the following link. https://www.albertaparks.ca/albertaparksca/science-research/aquatic-invasive-species/~~

~~I would also suggest calling Nicole Kimmel at 780-422-0885 for more info. Nicol works for the Alberta Government and is the contact for invasive mussels.~~

~~Have a nice day,~~
