RPM Kojima provided an overview of the process to date.  He noted that the review of 
the Land Use Bylaw had begun in the last term and that the current Trustees had made 
the review of the Land Use Bylaw their only priority and had been working on it for a year 
and a half.  He referred to a poster on the wall which provided a timeline of the work of 
the Local Trust Committee, which listed a Community Information Meeting in the 
summer of 2015 and in November of 2015.  He explained the technical review of the 
Land Use Bylaw that was completed in the spring of 2015 and referred to the Advisory 
Planning Commission for their review.  He noted that these proposed revisions to the 
Land Use Bylaw had been referred to the Advisory Planning Commission in the spring of 
2016.  He then provided information on the next steps, including the legislative process. 
   
A member of the public requested information on the volume of direct disclosure to the 
home owners on the island. The LTC responded that a notice of this Community 
Information Meeting had been mailed out to all property owners.  The planner noted that 
public notification becomes a legislative requirement when the Local Trust Committee is 
preparing to adopt the Land Use Bylaw, but that the LTC is still in the process of 
collecting feedback from the community.
