The agenda was adopted by consensus. 
 
 
3. OPENING REMARKS FROM THE CHAIR AND TRUSTEES 
 
Chair Graham announced that the purpose of the meeting was to give the 
public an opportunity to look at the first draft of the Associated Islands Land 
Use Bylaw, ask questions and give feedback.  
 
Trustee Hagedorn explained that the draft was a starting point and that it was 
hoped that in the spring the land use bylaw would move towards completion. 
 
Trustee Stamford commented on the importance of the Land Use Bylaw review 
process. 
 
 
4. COMMUNITY INFORMATION MEETING FOR ASSOCIATED ISLANDS LAND 
USE BYLAW REVIEW PROJECT (GM-LUB-2011.2) 
 
Planner Zupanec explained that the presentation would provide an orientation 
to the Land Use Bylaw and was intended to clarify technical matters as well as 
to make the public aware of the opportunities for input. Early input from the 
public was being solicited and had been endorsed by the trustees early in the 
term. The project was the number one priority for the Local Trust Committee in 
this term.

Planner Zupanec outlined historic land use planning for the Associated Islands. 
She noted that the current initiative was based on implementing the Associated 
Islands Official Community Plan, adopted in 2010. The Official Community Plan 
will not be amended during this review. 
 
The timeline for the land use bylaw process was reviewed. While input could be 
submitted at any time prior to the close of the public hearing on the bylaw, 
which potentially could occur in February or March of 2013, Planner Zupanec 
suggested that the September Local Trust Committee meeting would be a good 
place to identify proposed changes.  
 
Planner Zupanec explained that all the staff reports and minutes related to this 
review as well as the draft Land Use Bylaw could be found on the Islands Trust 
website. 
 
Planner Zupanec reviewed the sections of the draft Associated Islands Land 
Use Bylaw. Throughout the presentation, Planner Zupanec responded to issue-
specific inquiries pertaining to the land use zones from members of the public. 
 
Mechanisms for input on the draft bylaw were outlined. 
 
Chair Graham thanked Planner Zupanec for the presentation.
