Re:  Hornby Island Land Use Bylaw Maintenance 
 
PROBLEM/ISSUE 
There is an incorrect reference in Objective 10.2(6), Temporary Use Permit Areas of the Hornby 
Island Land Use Bylaw (LUB), respecting secondary suites, that should be addressed to remove 
potential confusion regarding the implementation of secondary suites on Hornby Island. 
BACKGROUND: 
While preparing the presentation given at the recent Community Information Meeting it came to 
staff’s attention that there is an error in Objective 10.2(6) of Part 10, Temporary Use Permit 
Areas  of  the  Land  Use  Bylaw  (LUB).    The  objective  incorrectly  references  Official  Community 
Plan  (OCP)  Policy  6.3.5.13  rather  than  OCP  Policy  6.3.5.14  and  also  makes  reference  to 
secondary suites which  do not require a Temporary Use Permit (TUP). The relevant OCP and 
LUB  statements  are  provided  below.  Also  provided  is  a  proposed  revised  version  of  Objective 
10.2(6) to correct this error.   
Relevant OCP Policies 
6.3.5.13 
A secondary suite, limited in size and contained within a permitted dwelling, may be allowed 
on  larger  rural  lots  (in  accordance  with  policies  in  section  6.3.3  (Rural  Residential)  of  this 
Plan)  and  despite  section  6.3.3  on  lots  larger  than  2.0  hectares,  in  order  to  provide  rental 
opportunities provided the owner or residential tenant occupies the principal residence.  
6.3.5.14 
A  detached  unit  used  to  provide  non-permanent  accommodation  for  a  relative  or  a  care-
giver  or  to  provide  non-permanent  affordable  rental  accommodation  under  the  Residential 
Tenancy  Act  may  be  permitted  through  a  Temporary  Use  Permit  in  accordance  with 
guidelines specified in Section 6.10, Temporary Use Permits.  
Land Use Bylaw, Part 10, “Temporary Use Permit Areas”  
Current wording 
Objective 10.2(6) to consider allowing a temporary secondary suite or detached housing for 
a relative or caregiver of occupants of the residence as per OCP policy 6.3.5.13 
in association with a housing agreement or by such other means as are available 
to encourage occupancy by a relative or caregiver;
