3. COMMUNITY INFORMATION SESSION 
 
3.1 Proposed Bylaw No. 123 (GM-RZ-2012.1 – Reel 17 Investments –Gambier 
Island) 
 
To amend the Gambier Island Land Use Bylaw to rezone a 0.32 hectare 
water area adjacent to the subject property from ‘Marine Log Storage’ 
(W3) to ‘Marine General’ (W1) to accommodate a private neighbourhood 
dock, and to rezone a 0.18 hectare upland portion of lot 1 from ‘Rural 
Residential’ (RR) to a site specific ‘Local Service’ (S2 (A)) zone to permit 
ramp access to the private neighbourhood dock 
 
Planner Brzozowski discussed the development process of a proposed bylaw 
for a water and land rezoning to enable a community dock with ramp access   in 
the Cotton Bay area of Gambier Island. A panhandle lot would be a driveway to 
provide access to the dock. There were no agency concerns in response to the 
bylaw referral. 
 
Planner Brzozowski explained that the bylaw would allow the community to 
have a community dock rather than have individual docks. Access to the dock 
would be by use of the Local Service lot. A restrictive covenant pertaining to 
neighbourhood dock had been drafted. The purpose of the restrictive covenant 
would be to restrict lots benefiting from the neighbourhood dock from building 
private docks as well.
