SUBJECT: 10% Lot Frontage Waiver Request for Application HO-SUB-2023.2 (Mason & Grayson) 
RECOMMENDATIONS 
1. That the Hornby  Island  Local  Trust  Committee exempt Proposed Lots 1  and 2 of  LOT  7, SECTION  9, 
HORNBY ISLAND, NANAIMO DISTRICT, PLAN 25736, EXCEPT PART IN PLAN VIP89242 of subdivision HO-
SUB-2023.2 (Mason  &  Grayson) from the 1/10  perimeter  provision  of  Section  512  of  the Local 
Government Act and subsection 6.6(1) of the Hornby Island Land Use Bylaw No. 150, 2014.   
REPORT SUMMARY 
The purpose of this staff report is for the Hornby Island Local Trust Committee (LTC) to consider exempting two 
lots in a proposed subdivision layout plan for application HO-SUB-2023.2, from Hornby Island Land Use Bylaw (LUB) 
regulation 6.6(1), in order to permit the lots to have less than a 10% frontage on a highway. 
BACKGROUND 
The applicant first applied to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI) in late 2019 with a four-lot 
conventional  subdivision  for two  subject  properties (PIDs  002-658-755  and  028-739-574) under Islands  Trust 
application number HO-SUB-2020.3. Staff reviewed the application and noted in the “Subdivision Referral Report” 
to  MOTI  (dated  July  16,  2020),  that the  proposed  subdivision  would  not  comply  with  the  LUB  Subdivision 
Regulations,  in  particular  regulations 8.2(7)(8)  and (9) “...for lots where two legal dwellings are permitted, the 
minimum  average  lot  area must  be  greater  than  4.0  hectares.” This  application  was  not  approved,  and  Islands 
Trust closed the file. 
In late 2023, the applicant re-submitted new subdivision layout plans for just one subject property, PID 002-658-
755, and a new application with Islands Trust was opened, HO-SUB-2023.2.  
Staff identified that the new proposed subdivision layout (see Attachment 1) does not meet the minimum 10% lot 
frontage requirement. The applicant must obtain a frontage waiver from the Hornby Island Local Trust Committee 
per LUB Section 6.6(1) for “Proposed Lot 1” and “Proposed Lot 2”.
