[0:00:03] Trustee Maude: Good morning, everybody.

[0:00:05] Trustee Maude: Thank you for joining us today for this regular meeting of the North Pender Island Local Trust Committee.

[0:00:11] Trustee Maude: I want to begin the meeting by acknowledging that we're fortunate to be able to gather today in locations across the territory of the Coast Salish people.

[0:00:18] Trustee Maude: I'm David Maude, elected on the main island, the chair of the North Pender Island Local Trust Committee.

[0:00:23] Trustee Maude: I'm joined today by your two North Pender Island trustees, Aaron Campbell and Deb Morrison.

[0:00:33] Trustee Maude: This meeting is being live streamed and recorded for those who are unable to attend in person today.

[0:00:37] Trustee Maude: The recording will be posted on the Islands Trust website for future viewing.

[0:00:44] Trustee Maude: We have Planner Brad Smith, who is your Island Planner.

[0:00:48] Trustee Maude: We have Planner Bruce Belcher, who is presenting some reports today.

[0:00:53] Trustee Maude: And we have Warren Dingman, our Manager of Biola Enforcement.

[0:00:57] Trustee Maude: So welcome.

[0:00:58] Trustee Maude: and of course we have Lisa Millard who is our master behind the scenes that is our minute taker

[0:01:04] Trustee Maude: and the manager of our Zoom and very much appreciated for all the efforts that she

[0:01:09] Trustee Maude: brings to us because sometimes it is truly magical. With that I'll just say that this

[0:01:15] Trustee Maude: meeting is official forum for local trust me to make decisions about land use planning matters

[0:01:20] Trustee Maude: and discuss relevant business.

[0:01:24] Trustee Maude: So with that, we have an agenda before us.

[0:01:28] Trustee Maude: Is there any additions or questions about the agenda that we have?

[0:01:34] Trustee Maude: If not, by general consent, we will adopt the agenda that we have.

[0:01:38] Trustee Maude: And we move right into trustee reports.

[0:01:40] Trustee Maude: So who would like to be first?

[0:01:45] Trustee Maude: Who's too eager?

[0:01:48] Voice 3: It actually was relatively quiet.

[0:01:52] Voice 3: since the last meeting um uh yeah been very busy with the farm and uh obviously i had trust council

[0:02:01] Voice 3: uh tucked in there and off to salt spring for a few days and um i think it was it was pretty

[0:02:13] Voice 3: you know not not a ton came out of that one it was a pretty quiet meeting uh with the budget and

[0:02:19] Voice 3: stuff having been decided and uh yeah i i feel like i have mostly been fielding uh requests for

[0:02:29] Voice 3: information from people about things that have absolutely nothing to do with us which has been

[0:02:34] Voice 3: super how high the grass is on the side of the road um yeah so it's just it's it's just been a

[0:02:43] Voice 3: it's summertime in the gulf islands and and everybody's got something better to do than

[0:02:47] Voice 3: and then bug a trustee I guess so it's uh it's been good yeah

[0:02:53] Trustee Morrison (probable): I think um the one thing that

[0:02:55] Trustee Morrison (probable): sort of came out and is also sort of percolating within trust council just to be aware of

[0:03:01] Trustee Morrison (probable): is the um trust policy statement is coming sort of forward in different ways David maybe you can

[0:03:09] Trustee Morrison (probable): say more about that where that's at um but that's just something to know um and to keep aware of

[0:03:17] Trustee Morrison (probable): it would be really helpful if as people engage with that they can actually engage with it through

[0:03:22] Trustee Morrison (probable): the process instead of like just jump on it and think what they think it is like actually read it

[0:03:28] Trustee Morrison (probable): and like understand it a little bit would be super helpful um and i think yeah it's been pretty quiet

[0:03:36] Trustee Morrison (probable): since we our last meeting was on may 30th it's been pretty quiet other than trust council related

[0:03:41] Trustee Morrison (probable): related things um so yeah looking forward to uh you know a month or two a month and a half or

[0:03:48] Trustee Morrison (probable): whatever it is of just some like personal breather space um so love to chat with people in august but

[0:03:57] Trustee Morrison (probable): uh and uh yeah looking forward to the fall fair thank

[0:04:02] Trustee Maude: you yeah um so i get a couple things um

[0:04:06] Trustee Maude: So the non-business item of grass at the side of the road got an update.

[0:04:12] Trustee Maude: I see a Saturnia yesterday.

[0:04:13] Trustee Maude: Apparently the mower is broken.

[0:04:16] Trustee Maude: So there was a lengthy email that was provided to Saturnia.

[0:04:21] Trustee Maude: I'll forward that when I get a chance.

[0:04:24] Trustee Maude: So for some reason, ENCOM, I guess they contract up to another party for the mowing.

[0:04:30] Trustee Maude: And I guess their mower is having mechanical problems, which has caused a delay on the southern Gulf Islands.

[0:04:36] Trustee Maude: My only comment yesterday was it's kind of surprising because, you know,

[0:04:40] Trustee Maude: it's not like there's only one mower around or one contractor.

[0:04:43] Trustee Maude: So I don't understand sort of what's going on,

[0:04:47] Trustee Maude: but we've been kind of assured that the ministry's on it.

[0:04:50] Trustee Maude: So hopefully we will all be seeing some mowing because it is a problem.

[0:04:55] Trustee Maude: Although I must say Maine less so because we are blessed with an abundance of

[0:05:00] Trustee Maude: deer who have kept the side of the shoulders of the road actually quite low.

[0:05:04] Trustee Maude: As I was over on Salt Spring,

[0:05:05] Trustee Maude: I think it was last week, and the grass is extremely high

[0:05:08] Trustee Maude: on the side of the road, with Main Island maybe six inches high.

[0:05:13] Trustee Maude: So I have an open off, and I made it to Saturna.

[0:05:16] Trustee Maude: They weren't interested, but if you want any deer,

[0:05:18] Trustee Maude: we can get them on a barge and get them over to you guys,

[0:05:21] Trustee Maude: and it will help the situation in a good, wholesome, and natural way.

[0:05:24] Trustee Maude: So that's my offer.

[0:05:27] Trustee Maude: Trustpology statement, yes, on Tuesday we are having a meeting

[0:05:33] Trustee Maude: that is actually scheduled for seven hours i'm hoping it'll be seven minutes um the anticipation

[0:05:41] Trustee Maude: is that we'll be able to give the policy statement first reading on on tuesday um we've as you both

[0:05:48] Trustee Maude: know we have spent an extensive amount of time um in committee of the whole and trust council

[0:05:55] Trustee Maude: um evolving the document to a point where a majority of trustees are comfortable doing

[0:06:01] Trustee Maude: first reading, which is basically the next step. It's not the final step. If it receives first

[0:06:09] Trustee Maude: reading on Tuesday, we now go out to a very extensive consultation process with Indigenous

[0:06:16] Trustee Maude: Nations, government bodies, and the public. From the public process, there will be a mailer going

[0:06:24] Trustee Maude: going out to every mailbox within the trust area.

[0:06:28] Trustee Maude: So full circulation on that.

[0:06:32] Trustee Maude: And then there will be a survey,

[0:06:35] Trustee Maude: of course, online that we always do and all that,

[0:06:38] Trustee Maude: but also a hard copy survey

[0:06:41] Trustee Maude: with a self-addressed return or stamped return envelope

[0:06:46] Trustee Maude: that will be on all the islands.

[0:06:48] Trustee Maude: I'm assuming places like libraries and such.

[0:06:51] Trustee Maude: So people who are not on the internet

[0:06:53] Trustee Maude: or not active in those electronic mediums can participate in the old-fashioned use of a pencil

[0:07:02] Trustee Maude: and fill out the form and mail it to us so we're trying our best to get it get the engagement out

[0:07:07] Trustee Maude: there get the feedback so once again we can have a whole bunch more long meetings to finally

[0:07:12] Trustee Maude: hopefully finish a document and get it done our goal is to have it done by the end of this term

[0:07:19] Trustee Maude: which is just over a year from now fingers crossed we'll get her done but

[0:07:26] Trustee Maude: until we get it out there after first reading we just don't know how

[0:07:31] Trustee Maude: successful it will be but very much fingers crossed as mentioned we went

[0:07:36] Trustee Maude: through a Trust Council in general on Salt Spring some very very interesting

[0:07:41] Trustee Maude: presentations fascinating indigenous knowledge was was given to us

[0:07:50] Trustee Maude: Um, we, we continue to learn and grow. Um, I keep telling people we're trying our best.

[0:08:00] Trustee Maude: Sometimes we don't get it right. We try our best. So we have so many blessed people sitting around

[0:08:09] Trustee Maude: our table that so knowledgeable, so bound with our, our communities. We have 26 wonderful trustees

[0:08:18] Trustee Maude: with violence trust and we try to achieve miracles sometimes it happens sometimes it's

[0:08:25] Trustee Maude: frustrating but you know we're all trying to do the best things for our community i don't think

[0:08:30] Trustee Maude: anybody brings a personal agenda and i do sincerely appreciate what everybody brings to the table so

[0:08:36] Trustee Maude: there's sort of they're great opportunities and i do enjoy them

[0:08:38] Trustee Morrison (probable): trustee mod one other thing i just

[0:08:40] Trustee Morrison (probable): wanted to share um and this is on non-trust related issues but i think it's important just

[0:08:45] Trustee Morrison (probable): to name it here um if folks are watching the recording so um bats have been um on salt spring

[0:08:53] Trustee Morrison (probable): have been tested for rabies um so make sure your pets are vaccinated and just be aware that they're

[0:09:00] Trustee Morrison (probable): suggesting we restrict access to pets at night out into areas where they can be in contact with bats

[0:09:06] Trustee Morrison (probable): so just be aware of that most

[0:09:08] Trustee Maude: definitely and the and the other thing that's been brought to my

[0:09:11] Trustee Maude: attention because i am the parent of some cats is um ticks apparently are quite active right now

[0:09:18] Trustee Maude: um so i i believe it was saturn and if i'm not mistaken self pender just recently they had um

[0:09:24] Trustee Maude: quite a few instances of ticks on pets so that's another it's an easy little application to the to

[0:09:31] Trustee Maude: our our loving friends and a good thing so all righty um so with that um we can move on um um

[0:09:43] Trustee Maude: i see director brent hasn't joined us today and i he missed the saturn yesterday also i

[0:09:49] Trustee Maude: understand he's just phenomenally busy and and when i talk to him on the ferry i know he is

[0:09:56] Trustee Maude: busy so hopefully we'll get him at the next meeting um so we're from here we move on to town

[0:10:03] Trustee Maude: hall we have a couple of attendees um in the meeting so if people have interested in and

[0:10:11] Trustee Maude: in making any comments to the local trust committee

[0:10:15] Trustee Maude: with regards to any matters.

[0:10:17] Trustee Maude: If you're an applicant,

[0:10:18] Trustee Maude: you'll be able to speak to your application at the time

[0:10:22] Trustee Maude: it is before local trust committee.

[0:10:23] Trustee Maude: But if you're a member of the public

[0:10:24] Trustee Maude: who wants to comment on an application,

[0:10:27] Trustee Maude: this is the time to do that.

[0:10:30] Trustee Maude: So there won't be space sort of made

[0:10:33] Trustee Maude: when we're actually speaking about the application

[0:10:34] Trustee Maude: with the applicant.

[0:10:36] Trustee Maude: So if anybody wants to speak

[0:10:39] Trustee Maude: to the local trust committee right now if you can raise your hands digitally um which fortunately on

[0:10:46] Trustee Maude: our zoom um format it is right there at the bottom um to raise hands or a hand somebody can help me

[0:10:53] Trustee Maude: is it star nine if you're on a phone i don't recall but um at this point i don't see any hands

[0:11:03] Trustee Maude: going up. So let's just move on, I guess. So next up, we have approval of minutes. We have

[0:11:16] Trustee Maude: Local Trust Committee minutes dated May 30th, 2025. Trustees, were there any things that you

[0:11:23] Trustee Maude: wanted to address in those minutes? Or do you feel that they're accurate? We see nodding heads.

[0:11:30] Trustee Maude: So by general consent, we'll adopt those minutes, and we will move on, as I've lost my place on the agenda, as one does.

[0:11:44] Trustee Maude: We have resolutions about meeting a report dated July 2025, just for your information.

[0:11:53] Trustee Maude: Moving down to page 15, we have the follow-up action list for July.

[0:11:59] Trustee Maude: um any questions or comments on those other

[0:12:05] Planner: than to say they're all complete well

[0:12:08] Trustee Maude: that is a

[0:12:09] Trustee Maude: magnificent achievement

[0:12:10] Planner: not bad thank you to not me but other staff mostly emily and jazz and bruce

[0:12:19] Planner: what's that take the credit

[0:12:21] Planner: i'm just the waiter bringing out the steak

[0:12:26] Trustee Maude: that's really great to see boxes tick that's a wonderful achievement

[0:12:29] Trustee Maude: of it. All right. So we're going to move down very quickly to applications. We have self-pender

[0:12:39] Trustee Maude: local trust committee referral for proposed bylaw number 129, which is attached. I'm not sure if

[0:12:48] Trustee Maude: you feel your interests are affected or not, but over to you, trustees.

[0:12:52] Voice 3: Not affected.

[0:12:56] Trustee Morrison (probable): I mean yeah I mean generally I've said not affected South Pender is a little bit

[0:13:01] Trustee Morrison (probable): closer affiliation um I assume that they know what they're doing there yeah

[0:13:11] Trustee Maude: if any of these

[0:13:13] Trustee Maude: referrals if somebody one day wants to see or say that your interests are affected I would

[0:13:17] Trustee Maude: enjoy that because it would make it feel that this is a worthwhile exercise but yeah motion to um

[0:13:23] Trustee Maude: Say that North Pender's interests are unaffected on this, please.

[0:13:29] Trustee Morrison (probable): Yeah, I can go ahead and move that.

[0:13:31] Trustee Morrison (probable): I was really interested to see, just as a comment, that they reduced the maximum floor area regulation.

[0:13:38] Trustee Morrison (probable): I thought that was interesting because I thought that had been contentious on South Pender at one time.

[0:13:42] Trustee Morrison (probable): So the fact that they feel like they can go ahead and do that now is interesting.

[0:13:45] Trustee Morrison (probable): interesting um

[0:13:47] Trustee Maude: see uh lisa has two steps ahead of us and she has a resolution thank

[0:13:53] Trustee Morrison (probable): you that the

[0:13:55] Trustee Morrison (probable): north pender island local trust committee interests are unaffected by the south pender island local

[0:13:58] Trustee Morrison (probable): trust committee draft bylaw number 129 executive

[0:14:02] Trustee Maude: trustee camel any further discussion if not we'll

[0:14:05] Trustee Maude: call the question all in favor and that carries excellent and so we move on page 22 main island

[0:14:12] Trustee Maude: and local trust committee uh for uh referral for proposed bylaws number 194 and 195 refuse yourself

[0:14:20] Trustee Maude: from this one well um

[0:14:24] Trustee Morrison (probable): yeah that's right i'm

[0:14:26] Voice 3: just curious why they would send it to us when you're

[0:14:29] Voice 3: when you're the chair i

[0:14:30] Trustee Morrison (probable): don't think you actually get a double vote just FYI

[0:14:33] Voice 3: yeah

[0:14:34] Trustee Morrison (probable): probably a good move to just recuse yourself from this one yeah

[0:14:40] Voice 3: Yeah, I mean, I was going the same route as the first one.

[0:14:48] Voice 3: Whoops,

[0:14:49] Trustee Morrison (probable): you're cutting in and out a bit, Aaron, just so you know.

[0:14:52] Voice 3: I was just saying that I would be unaffected.

[0:14:56] Voice 3: Lisa's already got it.

[0:14:58] Voice 3: Go for it.

[0:15:00] Voice 3: That North Pender Island Local Trust Committee interests are unaffected by the Maine Island Local Trust Committee Draft Bylaws No. 194 and 194.

[0:15:09] Trustee Maude: Okay, seconded by Trustee Morrison.

[0:15:12] Trustee Maude: And I will not be voting on this.

[0:15:14] Trustee Maude: And so all in favor.

[0:15:17] Trustee Maude: And that carries.

[0:15:19] Trustee Morrison (probable): And we should probably just record that trustee Maude didn't vote on it in case he ever has problems with that in the future.

[0:15:27] Trustee Maude: All right.

[0:15:28] Trustee Maude: So moving on page 25, we have PLDP 2025-0171 Ferguson over to Planet Belcher.

[0:15:41] Voice 2: Thank you.

[0:15:42] Voice 2: Yes, this is a new development permit application for the addition to an existing house, a deck addition, driveway expansion, and shed relocation within the Woodland Ecosystems Development Permit Area, which is Development Permit Area 1.

[0:16:00] Voice 2: The subject property is 2705 Yall Lane, which is mostly within DPA 1.

[0:16:07] Voice 2: The proposal involves developing mostly disturbed land within the DPA, as well as the removal of one mature Douglas fir tree to facilitate the driveway expansion.

[0:16:20] Voice 2: Given the conditions set out in the environmental assessment, the authoring registered professional biologists concluded that any detrimental impacts to the woodland ecosystems on the property can be minimized and the ecological integrity can be enhanced to promote resilience and biodiversity.

[0:16:39] Voice 2: diversity. The draft permit has included the biologist's recommendations, which include

[0:16:46] Voice 2: measures for managing the construction, preventing spills, construction timing,

[0:16:54] Voice 2: erosion and sediment control, site restoration and planting, and then environmental monitoring

[0:17:00] Voice 2: following completion. Staff consider that the objectives and the guidelines for the woodland

[0:17:06] Voice 2: land ecosystems DPA have been met, and the conditions within the permit are based on

[0:17:11] Voice 2: the environmental assessment completed by the registered professional biologist and

[0:17:15] Voice 2: supported by staff.

[0:17:17] Voice 2: Implementation, restoration, and monitoring conditions in the development permit will

[0:17:22] Voice 2: ensure that there is protection and enhancement of the sensitive ecosystem.

[0:17:29] Voice 2: So based on this, staff recommend that the North Bender Island Local Trust Committee

[0:17:33] Voice 2: approve issuance of development permit PLDP

[0:17:39] Voice 2: 2025-0171. Thanks.

[0:17:42] Trustee Maude: Thank you, Planner Belcher. Is the applicant with us?

[0:17:46] Voice 8: Erin's here, too, I saw. She's one of the

[0:17:51] Voice 8: consultants. All

[0:17:52] Trustee Maude: right. So we know

[0:17:55] Trustee Maude: that they're available if you have any questions.

[0:17:58] Trustee Maude: So, Trustee, turn it over to you. Any questions or concerns about this

[0:18:03] Trustee Maude: application i

[0:18:04] Voice 3: think go ahead um the only real question i had i guess is more process um for

[0:18:15] Voice 3: these kind of applications in general um how what what sort of oversight is given when the majority

[0:18:24] Voice 3: of the work is being done in a in a dpa um and the uh i appreciate the report and and sort of

[0:18:34] Voice 3: count was laid out um and and that there'll be an enhanced area um there but what kind of oversight

[0:18:45] Voice 3: is there while the process is going on just so that we know that at the end of the project

[0:18:52] Voice 3: all those boxes have been checked um

[0:18:57] Voice 2: so there is in so the monitoring during and following

[0:19:02] Voice 2: completion of the project would be how we would ensure that all the conditions

[0:19:07] Voice 2: are met as well there is a restoration plan which would which outlines what

[0:19:12] Voice 2: needs to be planted and where it needs to be planted so we would follow up with

[0:19:18] Voice 2: that following the construction and make sure that all the conditions are are

[0:19:23] Voice 2: being met by the by the applicant so

[0:19:27] Voice 3: that's the island's trust does that not

[0:19:30] Voice 3: the biologist who wrote the report uh

[0:19:33] Voice 2: so i believe in this one we have monitoring with for the

[0:19:38] Voice 2: biologist um who would provide us with uh either a report or some kind of letter saying that the

[0:19:45] Voice 2: all the conditions have been met and then we could also we also do do um uh site visits and

[0:19:52] Voice 2: and confirmation that the work's being done i

[0:19:56] Voice 3: just noted like that for whatever reason it seemed more

[0:19:59] Voice 3: more detailed to me than some of the other application reports that we've

[0:20:03] Voice 3: gotten. And I was just kind of curious. I was like, well,

[0:20:06] Voice 3: how do we really follow up on this stuff when we do approve one and it gets

[0:20:10] Voice 3: built out and making sure that we end up at a place where it's a positive

[0:20:15] Voice 3: impact at the end. So, yeah, thank you.

[0:20:20] Trustee Morrison (probable): And I have kind of a related question to that.

[0:20:23] Trustee Morrison (probable): Is there a process for, and I don't know if this is a thing,

[0:20:27] Trustee Morrison (probable): but for closing a development permit like that it is completed all the work that was named on it

[0:20:33] Trustee Morrison (probable): like the development permit application uh

[0:20:37] Voice 2: so i guess once once all the once we've just confirmed

[0:20:41] Voice 2: that i mean technically the the permit is we've actually like closed the file on our end once

[0:20:47] Voice 2: it's issued but we do complete the monitoring um where we have it open for monitoring following

[0:20:54] Voice 2: Following the issuance. So yeah, once we have confirmed that everything is in accordance with the issued permit, then we would note that and then there would be no need to follow up with further monitoring.

[0:21:08] Voice 2: monitoring okay

[0:21:11] Trustee Morrison (probable): and this might be something um trustee mod it would be good if we just sort of

[0:21:16] Trustee Morrison (probable): noted for like ongoing conversation at trust council level like in our bylaw compliance and

[0:21:24] Trustee Morrison (probable): enforcement because i had i think one of the first um development permits on the riparian

[0:21:29] Trustee Morrison (probable): new riparian rules and not a soul has ever checked to see if we did the things on that permit not

[0:21:35] Trustee Morrison (probable): Not that, like, initially, like, when it was issued, we complied with everything in there, but nobody followed up to see if it was done after the fact.

[0:21:44] Trustee Morrison (probable): So, and I just don't really understand how that is.

[0:21:48] Trustee Maude: I see Planner Spokane's waving his hands.

[0:21:50] Planner: Yeah, can I?

[0:21:51] Planner: So, just let me jump to the other screen here now.

[0:21:56] Planner: So, on page 138 of your package, there are environmental monitoring conditions built into the actual permit.

[0:22:05] Planner: de or double d double e and double f i would recommend that uh double e says should and it

[0:22:12] Planner: really should say shall shall complete over the route so i would recommend that um the ltc uh

[0:22:19] Planner: amend that permit condition to state shall so that you do get

[0:22:23] Planner: uh and uh that's one recommendation

[0:22:27] Planner: i would make just looking at the permit uh and then in terms of uh just to help uh with

[0:22:33] Planner: with your question of follow-ups.

[0:22:36] Planner: So like Bruce said, all permits have these kinds

[0:22:40] Planner: of environmental monitoring and reporting conditions.

[0:22:44] Planner: And we follow up, we close the permit when it's approved

[0:22:49] Planner: in terms of the file being closed,

[0:22:52] Planner: but we do document the monitoring requirements

[0:22:54] Planner: and we track those.

[0:22:55] Planner: So for example, if it's within a year,

[0:22:57] Planner: we set up in our system three months prior to that,

[0:23:01] Planner: that that the planner gets uh prompted and that planner if nothing's been received we'll follow

[0:23:07] Planner: up with uh that to make sure that that report is received we review that report if it's not

[0:23:13] Planner: sufficient or if there's gaps in it uh we send it back or sometimes there's more work to be done

[0:23:20] Planner: because they haven't done the work uh and so all of those things are happening behind the scenes

[0:23:25] Planner: means and we do go out and check the site ourselves we're pretty familiar most typically

[0:23:31] Planner: we've been at the site at least once before the permit is issued sometimes more than once

[0:23:36] Planner: so we have a pretty good understanding of what's going on there behind the scenes here and so yeah

[0:23:42] Trustee Morrison (probable): some of

[0:23:43] Trustee Morrison (probable): the other permits like i've definitely seen that with some of our other permits on

[0:23:46] Trustee Morrison (probable): fender i just these kind of smaller like individual house ones i didn't know how they're handled

[0:23:51] Trustee Morrison (probable): What

[0:23:52] Planner: I would also say is that we have asked the consultant this time to be a little more detailed in the restoration plan information that they provide so that we can be more detailed and succinct in our permit so that it is easier to monitor and ensure that those conditions are met.

[0:24:10] Planner: But ultimately, it's typically the professional that does that initial review of conditions being met and submits a report. And most often, that's sufficient to then completely close that monitoring aspect.

[0:24:26] Voice 6: Okay. And

[0:24:28] Trustee Morrison (probable): Brad, your suggestion on the edit, that's under a different bylaw piece of work today, right?

[0:24:34] Planner: No, it's the development permit on page 38 of your package.

[0:24:38] Planner: oh

[0:24:38] Trustee Morrison (probable): sorry i thought it was somewhere else okay yeah

[0:24:41] Planner: it's double e okay

[0:24:46] Trustee Morrison (probable): so uh i need a motion to do that

[0:24:51] Trustee Morrison (probable): um whatever that is yeah so that the

[0:24:54] Planner: yeah that the that the north pender island uh local trust

[0:24:59] Planner: committee amend permits uh lisa can fill in the number uh uh condition double e

[0:25:06] Planner: to

[0:25:08] Voice 6: amend

[0:25:09] Planner: the word should to shall yeah

[0:25:14] Trustee Morrison (probable): perfect yeah i'm with you on that thank you for catching

[0:25:19] Trustee Morrison (probable): that uh

[0:25:21] Trustee Maude: lisa planner

[0:25:25] Voice 11: smith double e does say should but double f says shall yeah

[0:25:32] Planner: i need so

[0:25:33] Planner: double e should also say shall understood thank you

[0:25:38] Planner: yeah all

[0:25:45] Voice 6: right so are you good with that lisa

[0:25:47] Voice 6: Lisa? Yes.

[0:25:50] Voice 6: Okay. So I move that.

[0:25:57] Voice 10: Right. I second that.

[0:26:02] Trustee Morrison (probable): Okay. And just to be clear,

[0:26:03] Trustee Morrison (probable): the point of doing this is just to make it so it's not optional to do the monitoring pieces

[0:26:08] Trustee Morrison (probable): that is required.

[0:26:09] Planner: I mean, there is, FF makes it required to submit a report. EE clarifies that

[0:26:15] Planner: it has to be done at least once mid-construction as well as post-construction instead of just a

[0:26:20] Planner: post-construction review yeah that's i mean you

[0:26:23] Planner: could be more specific about when but

[0:26:25] Planner: you can like leave that timing to them i guess i think that's okay

[0:26:30] Trustee Maude: okay all right all right preparing to make the vote all those in favor that carries and i just

[0:26:39] Trustee Morrison (probable): want to say generally on the permit i know we have to move the permit motion as well but just

[0:26:42] Trustee Morrison (probable): generally on the permit i really actually appreciated the detail and like i because

[0:26:47] Trustee Morrison (probable): Because this is a complex area. It's on the ocean. There's a teepee.

[0:26:50] Trustee Morrison (probable): There's a lot of things going on. And so I really appreciated the detail.

[0:26:53] Trustee Morrison (probable): So thanks for that.

[0:26:55] Planner: Bruce has been pretty diligent in making sure he gets all the information he felt he needed to get the permit.

[0:27:02] Trustee Maude: It was a great report. Very much appreciated.

[0:27:06] Voice 6: Are we okay to move it?

[0:27:08] Trustee Maude: Well, that's up to you.

[0:27:10] Trustee Morrison (probable): Okay.

[0:27:10] Trustee Morrison (probable): Okay. The North Pender Island Local Trust Committee approved issuance of development

[0:27:14] Trustee Morrison (probable): permit PLDP 2025-0171.

[0:27:19] Trustee Maude: All right. Seconded Trustee Campbell. Any further discussion?

[0:27:22] Trustee Morrison (probable): No,

[0:27:23] Trustee Maude: this is great. All right. Call the question. All in favor? And that carries. All right. Well,

[0:27:29] Trustee Maude: thank you very much, Planner Belcher. It's once again, an outstanding report that has been

[0:27:34] Trustee Maude: appreciated by the Local Trust Committee. So five stars for you on a nice sunny Friday afternoon.

[0:27:40] Trustee Maude: thanks and

[0:27:41] Trustee Morrison (probable): also just uh like a nod for the the mapping components like all of these zps mapping

[0:27:48] Trustee Morrison (probable): i'm getting a lot of questions actually about like pre pre-application kind of questions of like

[0:27:55] Trustee Morrison (probable): oh what can i do in this area and what can i do in that area so it is really helpful for people

[0:27:59] Trustee Morrison (probable): to have access to these resources and to and the questions i know that the planners are probably

[0:28:03] Trustee Morrison (probable): fielding on those types of things too so appreciate that because folks really appreciate the clarity

[0:28:07] Trustee Morrison (probable): ready.

[0:28:10] Trustee Maude: Wonderful. Excellent. Okay. So moving on, on page 95, we have a staff report on the

[0:28:18] Trustee Maude: Raptor Nest project.

[0:28:21] Voice 10: So over

[0:28:23] Trustee Maude: to you, Planner Smith.

[0:28:26] Planner: So thank you, Chair. This is just a brief

[0:28:29] Planner: update to the local trust committee to let you know that more or less the main thing we've done

[0:28:34] Planner: is sent out the property. We've completed the mapping with the updated information from

[0:28:39] Planner: uh uh the rp bio and dave manning who's uh i think both of them really invested a lot of time

[0:28:47] Planner: over this winter to really make sure that they did the best they could to get that data set as

[0:28:52] Planner: accurate as possible uh making sure that the trees that are identified are are are you know active

[0:28:59] Planner: and viable uh raptor nest trees uh and so since that letter's gone out i haven't really heard

[0:29:08] Planner: uh we've corrected uh 0.48 was uh moved on one on couple of the subsequent maps accidentally so

[0:29:16] Planner: minor mapping error but other than that i haven't had any feedback uh in relation to i don't think

[0:29:22] Planner: there's a tree there uh which we were getting a lot of that feedback in the first round so uh that's

[0:29:28] Planner: good and we certainly appreciate the work that uh they have done to do that at this point all

[0:29:34] Planner: volunteer on their behalf. And Aislinn's been great with the mapping as well.

[0:29:40] Planner: So unless you have any questions, there's been a few public responses, mostly around the size of

[0:29:50] Planner: the seasonal buffer areas has been the primary concern. And so that's something that the LTC

[0:29:59] Planner: see

[0:30:00] Planner: perhaps look at in the fall or at least discuss. I'm sure you'll get more feedback as the summer

[0:30:06] Planner: progresses as we're kind of in that summer doldrum period. But I think generally, it seems like we've

[0:30:13] Planner: got the mapping pretty close now anyways, which is great.

[0:30:18] Trustee Morrison (probable): Do we have, Brett, are there resources

[0:30:21] Trustee Morrison (probable): somewhere that, and I believe it's the BC government actually is what I'm thinking, but

[0:30:26] Trustee Morrison (probable): but it would be helpful if we could have for our fall meeting any kinds of

[0:30:31] Trustee Morrison (probable): educational materials around why the buffer zones increased like for,

[0:30:36] Trustee Morrison (probable): cause it was a provincial regulations. I think we're following, right.

[0:30:39] Trustee Morrison (probable): I

[0:30:40] Planner: mean, I can, I can speak to that and it's in the,

[0:30:42] Planner: it's in the professional report as well. So no,

[0:30:45] Trustee Morrison (probable): I mean, not right now,

[0:30:46] Trustee Morrison (probable): but just from the perspective

[0:30:47] Planner: of like, I mean, like if you're

[0:30:48] Trustee Morrison (probable): with the public,

[0:30:50] Planner: yeah,

[0:30:51] Trustee Morrison (probable): that'd be helpful.

[0:30:52] Planner: Yeah. Yeah. So I'll bring,

[0:30:54] Planner: I'll bring a summary of that feedback that we received and I'll speak in my

[0:30:59] Planner: report. Yeah. Noted.

[0:31:00] Planner: That'd

[0:31:00] Trustee Morrison (probable): be awesome. Okay.

[0:31:01] Planner: Yeah.

[0:31:02] Trustee Maude: But I guess to the question,

[0:31:04] Trustee Maude: has the province produced any sort of educational materials like handouts?

[0:31:09] Planner: I'd say that they've got a guidebook,

[0:31:11] Planner: which is published online and it's pretty readable.

[0:31:14] Planner: So I think that's their, and I'm sure there's, you know,

[0:31:18] Planner: other web materials and such. So yeah, they, I mean,

[0:31:21] Planner: It's pretty readily available. The 2005 guidelines were originally published, and those are what I probably triggered the work on Pender, along with Dave Manning's original interest and involvement, and then the updated guidelines building on that first set.

[0:31:41] Planner: So, I mean, it's a well-documented framework that we're working off of here.

[0:31:48] Planner: But certainly, I think there's also some rationale you could create around maybe in Trincomalee to lessen some of the confusion around those seasonal buffers.

[0:32:01] Planner: I mean, we've built in some exemptions as well, like, you know, building a shed or gazebo as long as it doesn't require a building permit.

[0:32:08] Planner: Some of those activities that might otherwise require a permit would be exempt in the current drafting.

[0:32:15] Planner: But I think we can revisit all that in the fall when we have more feedback from the public.

[0:32:19] Planner: And there is certainly, that's the general theme of most of the feedback.

[0:32:24] Planner: And it's all been pretty polite.

[0:32:26] Planner: So that's good.

[0:32:26] Trustee Morrison (probable): Yeah, I saw that.

[0:32:27] Trustee Morrison (probable): It's good.

[0:32:29] Trustee Morrison (probable): So

[0:32:29] Planner: that means we're doing a good job in terms of at least informing them.

[0:32:33] Planner: No one's feeling that they're not informed.

[0:32:35] Trustee Morrison (probable): Yeah, that's great.

[0:32:37] Trustee Morrison (probable): Yeah, that's good.

[0:32:38] Trustee Morrison (probable): Thanks, everyone, for the polite feedback.

[0:32:40] Planner: Yeah, absolutely.

[0:32:43] Trustee Maude: Okay.

[0:32:44] Trustee Maude: Well, thank you very much, Planner Smith, for that.

[0:32:48] Trustee Maude: Alrighty.

[0:32:49] Trustee Maude: So next time we move on to Housing Access and Affordability Project on page 102.

[0:32:55] Planner: Back to Planner Smith.

[0:32:57] Trustee Maude: For the start of the show today.

[0:33:01] Voice 10: Hard to follow, Bruce.

[0:33:05] Voice 10: That's young good looks.

[0:33:10] Planner: All right.

[0:33:11] Planner: All right, so here another just brief summary,

[0:33:14] Planner: mostly just an update to let you know where we're at

[0:33:17] Planner: since you've endorsed your housing action plan,

[0:33:19] Planner: lots of good work going on.

[0:33:21] Planner: I won't go through each one,

[0:33:23] Planner: but if you have any questions in terms of the background

[0:33:26] Planner: and where things are at,

[0:33:28] Planner: we are more or less on track with your project timelines

[0:33:33] Planner: and work right now is focusing on finalizing

[0:33:37] Planner: the suitable land and build out analysis,

[0:33:38] Planner: The development of options for legislative amendments and project communications and outreach. So I'm working on a mail out and I'll share that with LTC, not before your first meeting but at least to give to get so many feedback.

[0:33:57] Planner: Prior to sending that out also working with your APC on that document and communications staff.

[0:34:02] Planner: staff working on engaging with First Nations,

[0:34:06] Planner: say out in particular, trying to set up a meeting

[0:34:09] Planner: with their housing departments,

[0:34:14] Planner: as well as drafting another letter to First Nations

[0:34:17] Planner: with Joe's support.

[0:34:19] Planner: And there's just one recommendation in this staff report.

[0:34:25] Planner: Your APC did meet, I can't exactly remember when,

[0:34:30] Planner: but four or five weeks ago, perhaps,

[0:34:33] Planner: they did agree that they're interested

[0:34:36] Planner: in reviewing the housing action plan

[0:34:44] Planner: actions around potential bylaw amendments.

[0:34:48] Planner: And so that is what this recommendation is shaped on.

[0:34:52] Planner: And for them to provide a report,

[0:34:54] Planner: your next meeting's not till October 3rd.

[0:34:55] Planner: So that gives a pretty good window of time

[0:34:58] Planner: for the ABC to turn their mind to that.

[0:35:00] Planner: they meet again in mid-August and I would just once again say that your new APC is just as engaged

[0:35:06] Planner: as your last APC and they're going to be great to to push along this next piece of work I'll leave

[0:35:13] Planner: it there thanks so

[0:35:15] Trustee Morrison (probable): I had one question about this area um I was wondering Aaron if you have any

[0:35:22] Trustee Morrison (probable): capacity I could do it in August sometime potentially but I'm wondering about doing

[0:35:26] Trustee Morrison (probable): like if there's benefit for us for the broader community to do like a table at the market one

[0:35:34] Trustee Morrison (probable): day on the housing action plan to just answer questions put up a tent and just have people come

[0:35:38] Trustee Morrison (probable): and look at it and just talk to people so we get a broader kind of because then we might get some

[0:35:44] Trustee Morrison (probable): of the folks who are there only for the summer I don't know thoughts about any of that

[0:35:48] Voice 3: yeah I think

[0:35:52] Voice 3: think i i feel like the um like the work that the the apc has done has been pretty uh pretty good i

[0:36:04] Voice 3: mean to to put a face to it it almost gets some of them to come yeah like we could ask them well

[0:36:12] Voice 3: because they they have um it's it's really started to turn into a fairly informed thorough document

[0:36:20] Voice 3: that they have kind of put together and and uh i wouldn't also wouldn't want to steal anyone's

[0:36:27] Voice 3: thunder on what that is i'd be happy to sit and and do that um but i think that it would be

[0:36:32] Voice 3: important to offer it to to almost be there in support of them as well you know so i'd be game

[0:36:40] Voice 3: for it if uh if that can be coordinated um i don't know how we would we would coordinate that

[0:36:48] Voice 3: or how like make that uh make that ask of them if they would be interested in doing it as well

[0:36:56] Voice 3: yeah

[0:36:57] Voice 6: thoughts brad uh

[0:36:59] Planner: i think that you would need to figure out what date would work for you it's

[0:37:03] Planner: a saturday market right yeah yeah

[0:37:06] Planner: so i think the best thing for you to do would probably be if you

[0:37:09] Planner: are actually interested in that just figure out a date probably i'm thinking like maybe the july

[0:37:14] Planner: 25th weekend or something like that but or i mean

[0:37:17] Planner: august i'm

[0:37:18] Voice 4: not sure oh

[0:37:20] Planner: yeah so anyways figure out

[0:37:23] Planner: your date i think definitely some of your apc members if they're available would be interested

[0:37:29] Planner: in participating in that and um if you can figure out your date in the next couple of weeks we could

[0:37:36] Planner: advertise that in your mail out which will hit every household so i think that will be

[0:37:40] Planner: uh you know a good a quick read for households to at least be informed that this work's going on

[0:37:46] Planner: uh and then that might be a a good way to you know further build oh yeah i got your mail out

[0:37:54] Planner: i appreciate that and open up a line of communication around housing because in that

[0:37:59] Planner: email or in that mail out it's intended like how to get involved is intended to be kind of one of

[0:38:05] Planner: the little boxes where you know it would list your contact information my contact information

[0:38:11] Planner: contact information for the pender island housing society uh uh so uh it could also include uh

[0:38:20] Planner: the ltc and apc will be hosting a table at the fall fair uh fall fair yeah if if that's uh and

[0:38:30] Planner: i'm sorry i got these fruit flies all over my garage i just found a rotting bag of potatoes

[0:38:35] Planner: so i

[0:38:37] Voice 10: couldn't figure out why there's so many fruit flies in my in my garage and uh there's

[0:38:42] Voice 10: literally thousands of them in this bag of potatoes so i

[0:38:46] Trustee Morrison (probable): have a solution for you later

[0:38:48] Trustee Morrison (probable): we'll come back to that okay so

[0:38:50] Voice 10: sorry if i'm like

[0:38:54] Voice 10: you

[0:38:55] Trustee Maude: don't look crazy at all oh

[0:38:57] Planner: yeah but so so so that's i think really that would something

[0:39:02] Planner: like that if it's like that would need to be lcc driven unless it was like some kind of special

[0:39:08] Planner: meeting but i'm not sure how we would document minutes and stuff on something like that so

[0:39:12] Planner: i mean you

[0:39:13] Planner: could you could have like an actual open house where you have staff attend as well

[0:39:17] Planner: and maybe we look at doing something like that in the future but i think what you could do also

[0:39:22] Planner: at your table is have your uh have your mail out there i think we'll we'll create it like a pamphlet

[0:39:28] Planner: so it won't just be a letter it will be like more of a pamphlet that each household will receive and

[0:39:35] Planner: that pamphlet could also be in your crd office and in your you know to to continue to be used to kind

[0:39:43] Planner: of help promote the work you know so that's what i would those are my thoughts yeah

[0:39:50] Trustee Maude: i'll just note

[0:39:51] Trustee Maude: that tomorrow um dem and um ltc is doing something similar to that um they're participating in their

[0:39:57] Trustee Maude: their um market on island and then um they're actually doing a formal presentation in the

[0:40:03] Trustee Maude: afternoon of the community center but uh you might want to reach out um trustees to trustee graham

[0:40:09] Trustee Maude: and borthwick um after tomorrow and just see how successful it was um and maybe get an idea of what

[0:40:17] Trustee Maude: resources and materials that they had available that they might be able to shuttle down to you

[0:40:22] Trustee Maude: that might be appropriate because they're, of course,

[0:40:25] Trustee Maude: they're doing similar things on housing on Denman.

[0:40:29] Planner: And I think that one is being attended by staff, correct?

[0:40:32] Trustee Maude: Yes.

[0:40:33] Trustee Maude: Yes.

[0:40:34] Planner: Marissa will be presenting.

[0:40:35] Planner: Yeah.

[0:40:36] Planner: Yeah.

[0:40:38] Trustee Maude: So there might be some display materials that might be common to both islands

[0:40:43] Trustee Maude: that might be readily available.

[0:40:47] Voice 3: I was thinking that if we did one in the summer,

[0:40:50] Voice 3: like around the fall fair weekend or whatever it was,

[0:40:52] Voice 3: is that we could do it without without staff but if we wanted to do a staff involved one i think we

[0:41:00] Voice 3: have a community information meeting coming up which is on a saturday and maybe we could do

[0:41:07] Voice 3: it so that it's not a extra travel or extra expense necessarily where we do the farmer's

[0:41:16] Voice 3: market in the morning with staff attended and then go into the community information meeting

[0:41:22] Voice 3: because we've been hosting those in the community hall anyhow.

[0:41:27] Planner: I would say that you don't have any Saturday meetings scheduled right now.

[0:41:31] Planner: Last year, you had them regularly scheduled.

[0:41:34] Planner: This year, you just made a special meeting schedule

[0:41:36] Planner: for that one we had in the spring,

[0:41:39] Planner: but your upcoming meetings in the fall are on October 3rd,

[0:41:47] Planner: which is a Friday, and then November 28th.

[0:41:51] Planner: So if you wanted to have that meeting, you would need to schedule a special meeting, which you certainly can.

[0:41:56] Planner: And I would be open to attending.

[0:41:58] Planner: It's just it's not in your meeting schedule right now.

[0:42:01] Voice 3: For whatever reason, I thought that we had one more coming up.

[0:42:05] Voice 3: I think you

[0:42:06] Planner: talked about it and then you got in the end.

[0:42:10] Planner: You just agreed on the one is how I call it.

[0:42:14] Planner: And with the discussion of, well, maybe we'll talk about one in the fall, but let's see where we're at.

[0:42:19] Planner: I think it would be useful to do one.

[0:42:21] Planner: uh around housing and your raptor nests

[0:42:25] Planner: again um uh one more time but it'd certainly be nice to

[0:42:31] Planner: build to not have the same eight people there again like if you know if you're

[0:42:36] Planner: going to spend

[0:42:37] Planner: a saturday hosting a meeting it would be you know nice to tie it to something else or or or at least

[0:42:44] Planner: but you know maybe by the time you have your mail out and you've had your fall fair engagements

[0:42:48] Planner: mints uh you will have a bigger genesis of people coming out and if not then that will be telling as

[0:42:55] Planner: well because i mean every household's going to be informed by the you know by mid-august kind of

[0:43:01] Planner: thing by end of august whenever we get that dark that out so when's your fall fair

[0:43:06] Trustee Morrison (probable): 23rd of july of

[0:43:09] Planner: august yeah yeah

[0:43:10] Planner: that's an that's an early fall fair well

[0:43:13] Trustee Maude: main's a week before that so really

[0:43:16] Planner: um it's a summer fair i guess yeah

[0:43:19] Trustee Morrison (probable): so and i'm not even sure right now because i know the tables

[0:43:24] Trustee Morrison (probable): for farfair usually are sorted out earlier so i don't even know what where the sort of planning

[0:43:29] Trustee Morrison (probable): how

[0:43:29] Planner: long does your market run so uh

[0:43:32] Trustee Morrison (probable): usually it's one but probably later on the fall fair

[0:43:35] Trustee Morrison (probable): fall fair like

[0:43:37] Planner: i mean like does it it runs till mid september yeah

[0:43:40] Trustee Morrison (probable): i think it goes through to mid

[0:43:41] Trustee Morrison (probable): uh that's a good question

[0:43:43] Voice 4: yeah

[0:43:45] Planner: so maybe you find a window in that if you can't get prepared for the

[0:43:50] Planner: for the 23rd because you know you

[0:43:53] Planner: get a lot of your community out of that

[0:43:56] Trustee Morrison (probable): yeah the nice thing about the fall the fall fair is it's like literally everyone and their dog is

[0:44:01] Trustee Morrison (probable): there of

[0:44:01] Voice 10: course yeah totally good i could ask about that sorry you're

[0:44:07] Trustee Morrison (probable): cutting in and out again

[0:44:08] Trustee Morrison (probable): again, Aaron?

[0:44:09] Voice 3: I can ask about that. I know some folks on the committee this year.

[0:44:15] Trustee Morrison (probable): Yeah, it'd be

[0:44:15] Trustee Morrison (probable): nice to see if there was space and if there was, if we can communicate it back. Brad, is the email

[0:44:21] Trustee Morrison (probable): out to all the APC and folks like something that you could send or should we send that? What's the

[0:44:26] Trustee Morrison (probable): next step here if we did want to try for the fall fair?

[0:44:29] Planner: I think I could, you know, I'm back and

[0:44:34] Planner: forth with them quite a bit i can ccu and say uh the trustees are thinking about a table at the

[0:44:39] Planner: fall fair uh are any of you interested in participating that'd be awesome

[0:44:45] Planner: if you want

[0:44:45] Trustee Morrison (probable): yeah if you could do that and aaron if you want to check in and just see because i know that the

[0:44:51] Trustee Morrison (probable): planning for that is like fairly complex so if there is a possibility i mean i'm sure i am i'm

[0:44:58] Planner: positive that at least one or two of your apc members like would i'm sure they'll all be there

[0:45:03] Voice 4: If they're available.

[0:45:04] Planner: I think Peter's away right now.

[0:45:06] Planner: And so he would like we're meeting on the 15th.

[0:45:08] Planner: So I think most of them.

[0:45:09] Planner: So I think, you know, but what might be best is if you guys

[0:45:12] Voice 10: can

[0:45:14] Planner: confirm and commit and then I can reach out to them and say, hey, this is what the trustees are doing.

[0:45:20] Planner: It would be great if you could attend.

[0:45:24] Trustee Morrison (probable): OK, that sounds good.

[0:45:26] Planner: And I'm sure whoever is available, they're really keen and really bright and really bright.

[0:45:30] Planner: right i'll

[0:45:31] Voice 3: get on it as soon like as soon as the meeting is okay and then if

[0:45:34] Planner: you just send me an

[0:45:35] Planner: email with confirmation of that then i can just forward that to them and say this is what we where

[0:45:39] Planner: we landed uh is this something you guys are interested in uh if so please please let us know

[0:45:45] Planner: and uh and then i can uh if if that's your plan then we'll try to get this mail out uh out in the

[0:45:53] Planner: the next 10 days or something uh and then they'll have a little bit of lead time to communicate that

[0:46:02] Planner: but yeah

[0:46:03] Planner: the more the quicker i know aaron the better

[0:46:08] Trustee Maude: excellent all right so we have a road

[0:46:11] Trustee Maude: forward i

[0:46:12] Planner: do need a resolution though still okay

[0:46:15] Trustee Maude: what's

[0:46:16] Trustee Morrison (probable): the resolution oh just for this

[0:46:18] Trustee Morrison (probable): just

[0:46:19] Planner: going back to the staff report yeah thanks that

[0:46:22] Voice 3: the north pender island local trust committee

[0:46:25] Voice 3: Committee requests that the Special Advisory Planning Commission on Housing APC report back

[0:46:31] Voice 3: with analysis options and recommendations for housing action plan action numbers 4 to 9, 12,

[0:46:37] Voice 3: and 18. Second.

[0:46:41] Trustee Maude: Yeah, all right. Any further discussion? Call the question. All in favor?

[0:46:45] Trustee Maude: That carries. I just, Brad, just a quick question. I noted that the APC minutes weren't in this

[0:46:55] Trustee Maude: package yeah i just

[0:46:56] Planner: noted that this morning as well i'm not sure why so

[0:47:00] Trustee Maude: yeah yeah i just was

[0:47:02] Trustee Maude: asked the question if there was a reason but maybe just a whoopsie

[0:47:04] Planner: i'm not i think it's probably just

[0:47:06] Planner: a whoopsie we

[0:47:08] Trustee Morrison (probable): like add them to the next one that'll be good yeah

[0:47:11] Planner: for sure thank you there'll

[0:47:13] Planner: be at least two sets of minutes probably maybe three or four in the next meeting because they'll

[0:47:19] Planner: probably meet in august and then i'm sure they'll meet once or twice again before i mean you have a

[0:47:23] Planner: a big gap between your meetings so yeah uh

[0:47:25] Planner: and then i we talked briefly about uh a saturday

[0:47:29] Planner: meeting in the fall but it doesn't sound like you guys want to do

[0:47:32] Trustee Morrison (probable): you want to erin like because i

[0:47:34] Trustee Morrison (probable): guess the question i have about a saturday meeting in the fall is if we did one sometime sort of late

[0:47:40] Trustee Morrison (probable): october maybe i don't i think it's probably late october then that gets to the area that gets into

[0:47:47] Trustee Morrison (probable): to the any other decisions or thoughts we might need to do on housing i

[0:47:53] Voice 3: guess i had i had just

[0:47:55] Voice 3: thought that with the housing action plan um that sort of come the fall we were going to have hit

[0:48:05] Voice 3: a bit of a possible milestone in the work that had been done and then that might be time to

[0:48:12] Voice 3: to engage the community and sort of release, you know,

[0:48:18] Voice 3: the idea of the suitable land analysis,

[0:48:21] Voice 3: get some feedback from folks about what they think about that stuff.

[0:48:25] Voice 3: But I guess it sort of only makes sense to do it if we know that we've got

[0:48:29] Voice 3: that sort of new information to present to people.

[0:48:34] Voice 3: I

[0:48:34] Planner: would add that you will probably, you know,

[0:48:36] Planner: I'm pretty sure you'll have an APC report as well.

[0:48:38] Planner: and uh the resolution that you just passed is a lot there's a lot of meat to what you're asking

[0:48:44] Planner: them to do because those are all the like looking at maine and other uh areas that are you know

[0:48:50] Planner: already working on uh accessory dwelling unit bylaw amendments for example or a framework for

[0:48:57] Planner: tups for for for rvs potentially for example and so those are the kinds of things that they will

[0:49:05] Planner: We'll be reviewing and actually, I think, providing recommendations around how you might structure bylaws to move forward that you will consider on October 3rd for the first time.

[0:49:17] Planner: And so I think that a meeting in mid to late October would be well-timed.

[0:49:23] Planner: I think planning it for a Saturday, it can't hurt to do it on a Saturday other than it's a bit more extra staff time.

[0:49:30] Planner: But it does offer that Saturday opportunity. And hopefully with a mail out and some further engagement, we can continue to build interest and capacity in that work. And I'm expecting, you know, the suitable land analysis and the build out analyses.

[0:49:48] Planner: you know robert's working pretty closely with gis staff at the regional planning level on that

[0:49:53] Planner: stuff so i'm expecting that stuff will be ready to present at least in the draft form

[0:49:57] Planner: probably on october 3rd as well to the ltc first and then so i think there would be lots of meat

[0:50:04] Planner: to present uh um so that's what i would say and perhaps maybe october 25th or november 1st is

[0:50:16] Planner: in between your your october 3rd and november 28th dates 25th

[0:50:24] Trustee Morrison (probable): or what was the other one

[0:50:25] Trustee Morrison (probable): just

[0:50:26] Planner: suggesting october 25th or november 1st being two dates that uh

[0:50:34] Trustee Morrison (probable): i would go for our october 25th

[0:50:37] Trustee Morrison (probable): uh november 1st is right after halloween and that's actually a fairly big event on

[0:50:40] Trustee Morrison (probable): yeah so

[0:50:41] Trustee Morrison (probable): i don't know if that's a good idea so

[0:50:44] Planner: if that works for you you guys could pass a special

[0:50:47] Planner: a resolution for staff to schedule a special meeting

[0:50:52] Planner: for Saturday, September 25th for CIM.

[0:50:57] Voice 3: Can we include that in any mail-outs that we're doing?

[0:51:01] Planner: Yeah, and then we could include that in this pamphlet

[0:51:06] Planner: as well as your participation at the fall fair

[0:51:10] Planner: or if that is instead a couple weeks at your fall market.

[0:51:17] Planner: you know two or three Saturdays maybe at your fall market is something else you could consider

[0:51:22] Planner: if you're not uh if you're not ready for the fall fair or yeah what do you think Aaron

[0:51:29] Voice 3: I would say that the October 25th date okay if we can agree to that already then

[0:51:37] Voice 3: I think we should lock that in if we can and I like I said I'll even answer even maybe before

[0:51:44] Voice 3: for the end of the day about the fall fair table yeah

[0:51:47] Trustee Morrison (probable): that sounds good yeah

[0:51:48] Voice 3: you can do it and then

[0:51:51] Planner: i'm actively working on this pamphlet and we'll engage morgana next week to work her kind of

[0:51:57] Planner: communications uh skills magic on it to make it look a little bit uh tidier and you know more

[0:52:04] Planner: graphic um and so uh yeah if we can get that kind of early august uh then we can communicate

[0:52:13] Planner: whatever you're planning to do in terms of your grassroots engagement, let's call it,

[0:52:20] Planner: and also include that special meeting.

[0:52:24] Planner: And we'll just target to deliver a meeting on the 25th with wherever we're at.

[0:52:30] Planner: And that's a long time away.

[0:52:31] Planner: So I expect us to be pretty good at moving deliverables along.

[0:52:35] Planner: So I expect us to be pretty much on track.

[0:52:38] Voice 3: Do we need a motion of any sort?

[0:52:40] Voice 3: Yes.

[0:52:41] Voice 3: Yeah.

[0:52:41] Planner: So, so you need

[0:52:42] Voice 3: to pass the motion.

[0:52:43] Planner: Yeah. Go ahead.

[0:52:45] Voice 8: Are you ready, Lisa?

[0:52:48] Voice 4: She's probably already got it.

[0:52:50] Trustee Morrison (probable): Okay.

[0:52:50] Trustee Morrison (probable): Did the North Pender Island local trust committee schedule or request staff to

[0:52:55] Trustee Morrison (probable): schedule a community information meeting? Is it called a special meeting, Brad?

[0:53:03] Planner: Special meeting. Yeah. I think a special meeting is just.

[0:53:06] Trustee Morrison (probable): A special meeting for October 25th, 2025.

[0:53:11] Trustee Morrison (probable): 25 to for the housing action yeah for the

[0:53:16] Planner: housing access and affordability project yeah that's good

[0:53:19] Planner: enough for now we can add whatever else you want to that agenda if if there

[0:53:24] Planner: was some small part of

[0:53:25] Planner: the raptor project you wanted to present at that time um at that point staff will have probably

[0:53:34] Planner: recommended first and first reading at least of your raptor yeah that's a project uh in early

[0:53:40] Planner: October with whatever changes and amendments we've received there's been some referrals where there's

[0:53:47] Planner: a few things that like I don't think there's a there's an owl buffer that we didn't capture

[0:53:51] Planner: so we would probably add language around an owl buffer but so you may be at a point where you

[0:54:00] Planner: don't need another CM but you might want to present before you go to second and third

[0:54:05] Planner: or ending in public hearing one more time on that stuff so yeah that's good all right we'll do that

[0:54:12] Planner: okay i

[0:54:15] Trustee Morrison (probable): think i just moved it yeah

[0:54:17] Trustee Maude: so seconded all right for discussion call the question all in

[0:54:21] Trustee Maude: favor that carries and i'll just note um that planet chadwick's um um had phil do quite a bit

[0:54:30] Trustee Maude: of contract drawings for the Denman project.

[0:54:35] Trustee Maude: So there might be some really interesting graphics available

[0:54:37] Trustee Maude: that might be applicable that make things quite exciting

[0:54:40] Trustee Maude: because he does some really nice work.

[0:54:42] Trustee Maude: All right.

[0:54:45] Trustee Maude: So we're good to move on?

[0:54:49] Trustee Maude: If so, we are at page 107, the active projects report

[0:54:53] Trustee Maude: and the future projects reports.

[0:54:55] Trustee Maude: Anything that trustees want to raise or ask questions about

[0:54:59] Trustee Maude: or Planet Space wants to highlight for us?

[0:55:04] Planner: Nothing, unless you have any questions.

[0:55:06] Planner: Good progress made on both your projects.

[0:55:10] Trustee Maude: Most excellent.

[0:55:12] Trustee Maude: All right, we'll move on to page 110, which is your applications report.

[0:55:18] Trustee Maude: Again, for your information, unless you have any questions.

[0:55:24] Trustee Maude: So, you're good?

[0:55:29] Trustee Maude: Page 113, your trustee and local expense report for information,

[0:55:34] Trustee Maude: adopted policies and resolutions on page 114 to 117.

[0:55:38] Trustee Maude: Again, for your information, page 118, you have the Islands Trust and Service Report.

[0:55:47] Trustee Maude: Chair Gavreau has been making an effort to zoom in on some of our meetings.

[0:55:54] Trustee Maude: Unfortunately, she couldn't attend today, but hopefully she'll be able to attend the

[0:55:57] Trustee Maude: October meeting.

[0:55:59] Trustee Maude: She gives some pretty fascinating detail reports, and hopefully that will become a regular part

[0:56:06] Trustee Maude: of our meeting going forward um all right so we'll move on to new business um we have um

[0:56:15] Trustee Maude: 17.1 6601 razor point road covenant update so i believe that's planner smith

[0:56:25] Trustee Morrison (probable): no that's me oh is it i think that's me sorry

[0:56:29] Voice 10: where are we at it was just a multitasking man

[0:56:32] Voice 10: uh

[0:56:32] Trustee Maude: well 17.1 6601 razor point yeah

[0:56:35] Planner: i think i think maybe we can remove that now deb or

[0:56:38] Planner: Have we

[0:56:39] Trustee Morrison (probable): had any movement on that? Like any application?

[0:56:43] Planner: There's no application to us. I guess there could be a NAPTEP.

[0:56:47] Planner: Yeah,

[0:56:48] Trustee Morrison (probable): so leave it there for now. I'd like to just check in on that.

[0:56:51] Trustee Maude: Sounds good.

[0:56:53] Trustee Maude: So 17.2 on page 120, if Norse Pender Island LTC meeting procedures repeal bylaw, as trustees will recall,

[0:57:02] Trustee Maude: call at trust council we've adopted um an overall trust wide um meeting procedures bylaw

[0:57:10] Trustee Maude: that replaces all the local trust committee bylaws because it was i won't say bureaucratic

[0:57:16] Trustee Maude: nightmare but it was it said everyone was a little bit different um so at sometimes some

[0:57:21] Trustee Maude: chairs and some staff and challenging moments saying what i'm in our what are we supposed to

[0:57:26] Trustee Maude: be doing so um now trust council has adopted an overall one so we have to repeal our local ones

[0:57:33] Trustee Maude: and i trust that you guys are all up to speed on that but are there any questions about that

[0:57:38] Trustee Maude: no no

[0:57:43] Trustee Maude: questions so there's a motion there before you sorry

[0:57:54] Trustee Morrison (probable): there's a lot of paid

[0:57:56] Voice 12: we're

[0:57:57] Trustee Morrison (probable): on page 120

[0:57:57] Trustee Morrison (probable): 20 because there's three that's right okay so okay so that north pender island local trust

[0:58:07] Trustee Morrison (probable): committee give bylaw number 238 cited as north pender island local trust committee meeting

[0:58:11] Trustee Morrison (probable): procedures repeal bylaw number 238 2025 first reading effective

[0:58:17] Trustee Maude: trustee campbell any further

[0:58:19] Trustee Maude: discussion call the question all in favor that carries the

[0:58:25] Trustee Morrison (probable): north pender island local trust

[0:58:48] Trustee Morrison (probable): reading second

[0:58:49] Trustee Maude: trustee campbell a discussion call the question all in favor that carries

[0:58:55] Trustee Morrison (probable): The North Pender Island Local Trust Committee give bylaw number 238

[0:58:58] Trustee Morrison (probable): cited as North Pender Island Local Trust Committee meeting procedures repeal bylaw number 238

[0:59:03] Trustee Morrison (probable): 2025 to the Island's Trust Executive Committee for consideration of approval.

[0:59:07] Trustee Maude: That's Secretary Campbell. Any discussion, call or question, all in favor?

[0:59:12] Trustee Maude: Bye-bye bylaw.

[0:59:15] Trustee Maude: Okay, so now we move to page number 124, which is North Pender

[0:59:19] Trustee Maude: LTC public notification bylaw request for decision.

[0:59:26] Trustee Morrison (probable): And this is the one that just gives us the local, it changes the rules around like we can put it in the Pender Post versus having to put it in the paper, right?

[0:59:34] Trustee Morrison (probable): Because that was the difference.

[0:59:35] Trustee Maude: Yeah, there's detail.

[0:59:37] Trustee Maude: Planner Smith might be able to go through a little bit of the details of that.

[0:59:40] Trustee Maude: But basically, yeah, instead of doing in the generic official publications that the province likes that don't circulate to Pender Island, it actually allows a little bit more local control as to how things are circulated.

[0:59:55] Trustee Morrison (probable): Yeah, this looks good to me.

[0:59:59] Planner: You're good.

[1:00:00] Planner: does reduce costs and effort to you know have to post in the salt spring paper for example for

[1:00:06] Planner: yeah

[1:00:06] Trustee Morrison (probable): exactly for

[1:00:07] Planner: a public hearing on north pender where it's a thousand dollars i think those ad

[1:00:12] Planner: fees um and so moving away and having that more efficient in an electronic means makes way more

[1:00:20] Planner: sense and you can still uh choose to you know post in the pender post for example if you wish and

[1:00:27] Planner: uh so you have a bit more flexibility that way

[1:00:32] Trustee Morrison (probable): aaron do you have any questions or can we go

[1:01:38] Trustee Maude: trustee campbell a discussion call the question all in favor that carries

[1:01:43] Trustee Maude: so hello new bylaw

[1:01:45] Voice 4: all

[1:01:47] Trustee Maude: righty so now we move down uh to page 129 which is north pender ltc

[1:01:54] Trustee Maude: By-law Enforcement Notification Draft By-law No. 230.

[1:01:58] Trustee Maude: And I see Manager Dingman has come on the screen.

[1:02:01] Trustee Maude: So over to you, Mr. Dingman.

[1:02:05] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: Good morning, Chair, LTC.

[1:02:08] Trustee Maude: Good morning.

[1:02:09] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: The staff report with suggested amendments

[1:02:13] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: to the North Pendera and Bend By-law

[1:02:15] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: has been placed on the agenda for a second time.

[1:02:22] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: it was originally placed on an agenda last year

[1:02:27] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: this amendment bylaw would amend

[1:02:31] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: your bylaw enforcement notification bylaw number 188

[1:02:35] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: and it is

[1:02:39] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: requiring amendment because the original

[1:02:42] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: bend bylaw was referenced all the contraventions in bylaw number

[1:02:47] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: 103 which has been rescinded and you now have a new

[1:02:52] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: land use bylaw number 224 so the schedules contained within the ben law bylaw need to

[1:02:58] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: reference the new bylaw so all of the contravention schedules have been

[1:03:05] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: amended updated the surcharge updated and also that what has been added is a contravention

[1:03:15] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: or failing to obtain a development permit.

[1:03:20] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: This is new, and the goal is to allow bylaw officers to issue a penalty

[1:03:28] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: if a property owner does work in a development permit area

[1:03:32] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: without that required permit from the LTC.

[1:03:37] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: So the BEN system is an alternative in the end-to-court action,

[1:03:43] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: which can be expensive.

[1:03:46] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: this is sort of the lowest cost way of dealing with non-cooperative property owners

[1:03:53] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: and trying to motivate them or entice them into moving towards compliance and

[1:04:02] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: right now we don't have the ability to use the bend system with the current number of open files

[1:04:08] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: that you have um and it's all in the end it's really the best tool that the bylaw officers

[1:04:15] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: officers have to enforce your bylaws. And that's why, again, we've presented it to the LTC with

[1:04:23] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: the hopes that the amendments will be approved, and then we can continue with enforcement efforts

[1:04:29] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: on North Pender. I can take any questions that the LTC has.

[1:04:36] Trustee Maude: Trustees, any questions or comments on this?

[1:04:40] Trustee Maude: Yes.

[1:04:42] Voice 3: I think, I guess the only real question I had was, because being on the regional planning and knowing that there's some other work being done with some of this is, would this be, do we need to, I guess, do we need to deal with this right now?

[1:05:07] Voice 3: or is there something new coming down the pipe for this

[1:05:11] Voice 3: in and sort of after the next Trust Council?

[1:05:17] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: So, Chair, the review of the Trust Council policies

[1:05:21] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: for compliance and enforcement,

[1:05:23] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: it doesn't deal with the BEND bylaws

[1:05:28] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: for local trust committees.

[1:05:31] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: The Bylaw Enforcement Review Project,

[1:05:35] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: the review of those policies with the ombudsperson,

[1:05:37] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: person um almost none of it or very little bit it even deals with ben bylaws the ben bylaws are

[1:05:46] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: adopted by the local trust committees if they wish to enforce their bylaws by that means and each

[1:05:53] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: uh you also have a dog previous trust committee local trust committees have adopted policies and

[1:06:00] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: procedures for the use of the ben by law and screening officers powers and duties when it

[1:06:05] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: it was adopted. So the North Pender LTC can adopt its own compliance and enforcement policies

[1:06:13] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: specific for North Pender. And so within those policies, it would say how they want the BIN

[1:06:19] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: bylaw used. It would also outline and update the screening officer's duties and abilities to cancel

[1:06:29] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: tickets in certain circumstances and what you know say denman has done as an example

[1:06:39] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: they have a very limited use a limited number of contraventions within their ben by law and

[1:06:47] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: have limited the use of the ben by law and as an example for maine before the ben

[1:06:55] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: When bylaw notices are used, there's a report to the LTC on Maine and then they decide, okay, do we wish to proceed with enforcement?

[1:07:06] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: And then if there's a decision, yes, on this file, we wish to proceed with enforcement, then the bylaw officer then proceeds with issuing warning notices and actual bylaw violation notices with a penalty if necessary.

[1:07:21] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: so there's different ways uh different ltcs are using the system differently some there's very

[1:07:28] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: close control other ltcs like say gambier have said we don't want that type of close control

[1:07:35] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: but they're still amending their bend bylaw so that it can be used by bylaw officers to

[1:07:40] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: enforce the bylaws okay

[1:07:44] Trustee Morrison (probable): i have a couple related questions maybe to throw in so um

[1:07:50] Trustee Morrison (probable): um i think my my biggest concerns i i like the bylaws it stands i think it's good i think it

[1:07:57] Trustee Morrison (probable): adds a couple things that we needed um my biggest concern is the the tensions that we've had on the

[1:08:04] Trustee Morrison (probable): island sometimes around like equity of enforcement so like the procedures that we have of like how

[1:08:12] Trustee Morrison (probable): the bylaw system generally is rolls out and maybe that's what your question is related to

[1:08:18] Trustee Morrison (probable): too, Aaron. But like, that seems like it's a it's a trust counsel kind of that ombudsman report kind

[1:08:26] Trustee Morrison (probable): of piece that's that is in the works and that like will come down. I guess, Warren, the question I

[1:08:32] Trustee Morrison (probable): have related to what you just said is like, how do we do what you just said? Like, how do we how

[1:08:40] Trustee Morrison (probable): do we create the details that you're saying? Because I don't see them in terms of like,

[1:08:45] Trustee Morrison (probable): Like that's an implementation bylaw in some way.

[1:08:47] Trustee Morrison (probable): Like it's a bylaw enforcement implementation sort of plan.

[1:08:50] Trustee Morrison (probable): Is that a standing resolution and stuff?

[1:08:52] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: It's a policy as, you know, trustee Maude can comment on.

[1:08:57] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: Maine has adopted its own compliance and enforcement policy.

[1:09:01] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: And within that policy are procedures stating that, okay, the LTC is going to receive reports.

[1:09:08] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: This is how we're going to do this.

[1:09:10] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: so you would do the same thing as main saying okay we want closer supervision of how ben's going to

[1:09:17] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: be used so we're going to receive regular bylaw reports and then the ltc is going to make a

[1:09:23] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: decision is this in the community community's interest to enforce or not do you want to close

[1:09:29] Voice 4: the file

[1:09:29] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: or do you

[1:09:31] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: want staff to continue and use warning notices and violation notices if necessary

[1:09:36] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: necessary yeah to

[1:09:37] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: try and gain compliance my

[1:09:39] Trustee Morrison (probable): question isn't being clear because i i got all

[1:09:41] Trustee Morrison (probable): that like i get what the content of the policy how do we get the policy in place like is that

[1:09:46] Trustee Morrison (probable): a project is that how do we get that can we just take mains and say put it on the table in october

[1:09:51] Trustee Morrison (probable): and say hey scratch this out do this like what do we do to get that thing you

[1:09:56] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: just pass a resolution

[1:09:56] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: requesting to see it at your next meeting it's already been prepared let's do

[1:10:01] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: that prepared last

[1:10:01] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: year it's been updated

[1:10:02] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: yeah it

[1:10:03] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: wasn't placed on this agenda because when there's still concerns

[1:10:09] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: about getting the trust council policy completed but ltcs have adopted their own policies because

[1:10:16] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: they felt okay we have a need now we have a need to address this issue now so the document's

[1:10:22] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: actually been prepared it may need some updating but on the next meeting or the meeting after that

[1:10:28] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: that if you pass a resolution we can present that policy and so that you can give direction to staff

[1:10:35] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: and for example how you want been used if and when you want it used what circumstances

[1:10:42] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: and you know you can go to the issues of deferring enforcement okay for these issues we don't want

[1:10:47] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: bylaw notices issued as an example we want this dealt with through other means whatever

[1:10:52] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: Yeah.

[1:10:53] Trustee Morrison (probable): Okay. So, Aaron, I'm good at passing this right now. And then also putting a motion on the table to like request the policy document to come back in our next meeting if we can.

[1:11:06] Voice 4: Sorry, Brad.

[1:11:10] Trustee Morrison (probable): I

[1:11:10] Planner: was just going to say, what was I going to say?

[1:11:17] Planner: That Caterna has a draft document that perhaps Warren could share with LTC so you get a sense of, I think that's a good example, Warren, perhaps?

[1:11:28] Planner: Well,

[1:11:29] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: the one for North Pender has already been prepared and reviewed by Robert Kojima and myself.

[1:11:33] Planner: Oh, okay.

[1:11:34] Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement: just needs to be updated and could probably be ready for the next LTC meeting.

[1:11:43] Planner: I'll be quiet.

[1:17:12] Trustee Maude: well i think you can put it on on planter smith's radar and then october 3rd meeting we can deal

[1:17:18] Trustee Maude: with it so like between maybe the two of you can go back and forth and find something um and then

[1:17:25] Trustee Maude: if it's appropriate um on the october meeting we can adopt that because that's lots of time

[1:17:30] Trustee Maude: for notice okay so

[1:17:33] Trustee Maude: we don't we don't have to rush into things okay even if it

[1:17:37] Trustee Morrison (probable): was just a week before

17.4 North Pender LTC Bylaw Enforcement Notification Draft Bylaw No. 230 - Staff 
Report 
The Manager of Bylaw Compliance and Enforcement summarized the staff report 
and highlighted the following: 
• The proposed bylaw amends Bylaw Enforcement Notification Bylaw No. 188 as 
Land Use Bylaw No. 103 was rescinded and the new Land Use Bylaw No. 224 
was adopted 
• The schedules contained within the Bylaw Enforcement Notification Bylaw need 
to reference the new Land Use Bylaw 
• The contravention and surcharge schedules have been amended and updated 
• A contravention has been added for failing to obtain a Development Permit with 
the goal to allow Bylaw Officers to issue a penalty if a property owner does work 
in a Development Permit Area without the required permit 
Discussion ensued and the following comments were recorded: 
• The Regional Planning Committee is reviewing Trust Council policy for bylaw 
enforcement which does not affect the Bylaw Enforcement Notification Bylaw 
• The Local Trust Committee can develop and adopt policies and procedures for 
use of the Bylaw Enforcement Notification Bylaw which will guide the manner in 
which Bylaw Officers conduct investigations and implement the bylaw within 
their Local Trust Area 
• A policy for North Pender Island been prepared and can be presented to the 
Local Trust Committee to aid in developing their policy
