1. Current Land Use: Vacant/AF Zone (Not suitable for agriculture or forestry)

• 2. Surrounding Land Uses:

North: M2-General Industrial & M5 – Heavy Industrial (Westbin, Abandoned sawmill site, CN Rail tracks) East: M7 – Concrete & Asphalt (Rolling Mix, Pittman Asphalt, Westbin) South: AG – Greenbelt/ AF - Agriculture & Forestry (Steep, undevelopable Cranbrook Hill escarpment to remain) West: M7 – Concrete & Asphalt (Columbia Bitulithic)

• 3. Residents of Cranbrook Hill, Miworth & Nechako Bench – have concerns

regarding noise, heavy industrial sprawl, aesthetics, and traffic In response, CIF and Timber West have proposed a low impact development with low noise, very low traffic volumes, limited zoned area & a fully landscaped berm for aesthetics and noise attenuation

Land Use Considerations

• 4. Environmental Impacts – Groundwater protection area

CIF and Timber West jobsites are proposing to move further away from Fish Trap Island (the City’s well)

• 5. Proximity to CIF and Timber West’s existing site ( <100 m)

Allows opportunity to expand long term family businesses Moving just down the road!

Land Use Considerations ..... Cont'd

Proposed Application

Official Community Plan Amendment: 12.2 ha (43.9% of property) from Rural Resource to Light Industrial Rezoning:12.2 ha (43.9% of property) from Agriculture/Forestry to M1 Light Industrial w/ Covenant to restrict incompatible uses

Proposed OCP: Light Industrial Proposed Zoning: M1 - Light Industrial

Proposed M1 Zone w/ Covenant to Limit Principal Uses

Benefits of Restrictive Covenant

• Registered on Title & runs with the land

regardless of ownership

• Requires public process to amend or

discharge Reduced Number of Principal Uses Based on:

• Selected lowest impact uses
• Only 8 out of a possible 46 uses were

retained

• Public input at Community Meeting
• Cognizant of onsite water limitations
• Consideration of environmental impacts i.e.

Uses requiring onsite storage of contaminants, pollutants, chemicals were removed

• Limited uses to those uses which could be

completed primarily indoors

• Reduce noise impacts on neighbours
• Reduce visual impacts
• Reduce risk of ground

contamination

Future Plans for the Site

CIF Construction

• Use existing helicopter hangar

for office & workshop and so that all equipment repairs can be moved indoors

• Outdoor equipment storage will

be contained on paved surface and/or located outside the Groundwater Protection boundary Timber West

• Build a new workshop on the

property so that fabrication works can be moved indoors (reduce noise, increase safety)

• Build a small new office building
• Outdoor storage contained
• utside the Groundwater

Protection boundary, and/or on a paved surface

• Construct a landscaped perimeter berm to contain noise, maintain green

aesthetic of Otway Road, increase onsite security, and to provide visual barrier

• Retain trees within AG zoned areas
• No significant increase to traffic anticipated
• The entire rezoned property to be fenced for security
