 Trustee Morrison wanted it noted in the recording that the intention of the LTC is to 
not have residential zoning on the water lot 
 Trustee Morrison advised that we are only approving the LUB with the 
understanding that the zoning we are doing on ALR land is not in force until the ALR 
itself allows for the change in use as the ALR rules supersede the Islands Trust 
regulations  
 Michael Sketch of North Pender Island had numerous questions regarding 
residential development, the Island Trust Map and ALC. IP Stockdill, Trustee 
Morrison, Trustee Campbell and Chair Maude responded as well 
 Trustee Morrison added some of her concerns here regarding the ALR. Not perfect 
but needs to go forward. Trustee Campbell added his views as well 
 IP Planner Stockdill explained the Bylaws and amendments related to them. 
There were 3 public submissions to date.
