Public Notice is hereby given in accordance with Section 466 of the Local Government Act that a Public Hearing will be held to consider the following bylaw:
- Squamish-Lillooet Regional District Electoral Area C Zoning Bylaw No. 765, 2002, Amendment Bylaw No. 1497-2016
PURPOSE OF BYLAW 1497-2016:
The SLRD received a zoning amendment application for District Lot 1252, 9118 Portage Road. The property is currently zoned Rural 1 (RR1) in SLRD Electoral Area C Zoning Bylaw 765, 2002. The property location is shown below. The proposed zoning amendment is to facilitate subdivision and would see the property rezoned to Rural 3 (RR3) thereby reducing the minimum parcel size to one and a half hectares (1.5 ha); permitted uses and regulations would remain consistent with the current RR1 zoning.
The Electoral Area C Official Community Plan (OCP) Bylaw No. 689, 1999 includes specific policies where the minimum parcel size for Rural Residential designated lands in the Mt. Currie - D’Arcy corridor may be amended, through a site specific rezoning application, to one hectare, subject to conformance with suitability criteria such as soil conditions, slope, geotechnical hazards, and water supply.
WHEN & WHERE?
The public hearing will be held at 7:00 pm on Wednesday April 12, 2017 in the Board Room at the Squamish-Lillooet Regional District office (1350 Aster Street) in Pemberton, BC.
The area covered by Bylaw 1497-2016 is PID 013-310-232 (DL 1252 Lillooet District Except: (1) Part Outlined in Red on Plan A8 (2) Plan B4587) as outlined on the Subject Property Map.
