Planner Stockdill answered that the grandfathered shipping containers wouldn’t be required to put up screening. Bob Wilson of the Magic Lake property association president, discussed RR1 & RR2 zoning for livestock. Discussion regarding secondary suites and rental of accessory buildings. Bob Willson commented on the maximum floor area of a dwelling being 2500 sq ft. Joyce Thayer provided draft motions regarding removing Agriculture and Agri-Tourism as principle or accessory uses for the RR2 zoned areas. Joyce Thayer would also like to see horticulture and the keeping of livestock to be recognized as permitted principle uses so that vacant properties can be used for these purposes. There needs to be an amendment of bylaw No. 229 as Section 2.2 suggests that Agriculture in RR2 zoned land be a permitted principle use. Further discussion continues regarding clarity of the definition of farm status and allowable accessory buildings.
