3. TOWN HALL AND QUESTIONS 
 Christa Yeomans commented on her neighbour’s plan to offer glamping, music and a 
restaurant on their property, expressing concern about the possible negative impacts 
including noise; and urged the Local Trust Committee (LTC) to prevent this from occurring. 
o Trustees and staff responded that the owners of the property have been in contact with 
planners, have been made aware of the noise control bylaw, have been encouraged to 
consult with neighbours, and are following up with the Agricultural Land Commission 
(ALC) to ensure compliance with regulations.  
 Karen Ross and Daniel Arbour, speaking on behalf of Hornby Island Community Economic 
Enhancement Corp. (HICEEC), read a statement regarding the Vacation Home Rental (VHR) 
Review project and submitted it for the record. They described survey results that would 
support a plan for education, however, not an enforcement campaign project. They urged

the LTC to address enforcement of VHRs cautiously so as not to target this or any other 
business sector. 
o Trustees noted that the emphasis in bylaw enforcement will continue to be to work with 
operators as necessary to achieve compliance and to support the goals of good 
practices, neighbourhood harmony, protection of ground water and a strong economy. 
They advised that this matter would be discussed further at agenda item 12.1.
