Trustees present. 
2. APPROVAL OF AGENDA 
By general consent the agenda was approved as presented. 
3. COMMUNITY INFORMATION MEETING (CIM) 
3.1 Proposed Bylaw No. 95 to amend the Lasqueti Island Land Use Bylaw subdivision 
requirements 
Staff noted that the inconsistency between the Land Use Bylaw and the Official 
Community Plan (OCP) was discovered during the Shoreline Protection Project.  Staff 
described the process to date and identified the referral responses. 
Chair Busheikin asked for questions from the public. 
A member of the public cited Section 3.11 (5) and noted that the frontage on a highway 
was clearly stated but was followed by an information note that allows the Local Trust 
Committee (LTC) to override it.  He asked what is in place to guide the LTC in making 
decisions in the future. 
Staff responded that the Local Government Act does not provide these guidelines, but 
safety would be the priority.  She noted that road and highway access is open for 
discussion and can be waived by the LTC according to the local conditions.

A member of the public asked where the letter of agreement with the Ministry of 
Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI; cited under “Highway Standards”) could be 
found. 
Staff responded that it is on the Islands Trust website under the Trust Council tab. 
A member of the public asked if the new Schedule C is different than the previous one. 
Staff responded that Plan 1 is intended to replace Schedule C completely; the text is 
clearer in the legend box and there is no change in actual lot boundaries. 
A member of the public commented that he found the language regarding panhandle 
parcels confusing.  He believes without clearer language, the panhandle could mean any 
of the points of contact. 
Staff responded that the original Bylaw was silent on this and that a legal review was 
conducted.  They are confident that it is sufficient.
