The Hornby Island Local Trust Committee deferred application HO-SUB-2023.2 until its next meeting to provide neighbours an opportunity to comment in public. [1]
The application concerns a proposed subdivision into two lots where the required 10% of each lot’s perimeter for access cannot be met. [1]
The minutes state that the proposed lots have perimeters of 937 and 943 metres, with combined frontage access of 23.46 metres. [1]
Staff said the request was for a waiver, not a variance, and that the rationale for granting it was that there were no anticipated negative impacts to access, circulation or safety. [1]
The minutes state that subdivision applications are made to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure with the Provincial Approving Officer, while the Local Trust Committee receives a referral to ensure the proposed layout meets the adopted Land Use Bylaw. [1]
The recording states that the special meeting was held electronically and that the meeting was live streamed and recorded. [2]
The committee also gave first reading to proposed Bylaw Nos. 176 and 177, concerning amendments to the Official Community Plan and Land Use Bylaw. [1]
