  • Five Years, $16,700, and an Unfinished Plan — Hornby Island's Local Trust Committee chartered a comprehensive OCP/LUB review to fix housing and short-term-rental rules, set a $16,700 two-year budget and a spring 2024 adoption target — then documented, in its own staff reports, a failed first engagement, a nearly exhausted budget, and a project still unfinished in 2026. Meanwhile, a rezoning file sat deferred for roughly three years awaiting the same unresolved planning question, and the affordable housing that did arrive on Hornby was financed and delivered by agencies outside the Trust.
