PURPOSE OF REPORT
The purpose of this report is to provide update to the COW Report dated February 5, 2014 and to support the recommendations of the report.
BACKGROUND
The application went to Committee of the Whole on February 11, 2014. That report is attached to this report for Council’s information.
PROJECT INFORMATION
Road Dedication Update
As an update to the COW report, staff has determined that the area identified as road dedication was done through the subdivision process in 2009, but not reflected in the BC Assessment or Town mapping. So, no further road dedication is required. Staff will endeavour to fix the mapping inconsistencies.
Geotechnical Update
Staff has been in contact with Ryzuk Geotechnical regarding the slope stability of the site. They do not believe that any additional work is necessary if there is no disturbance to the site. Since there is a proposed change in use and that there may be minor landscape amendments as part of the Development Permit process, staff will be recommending to Council at the Development Permit stage that a brief evaluation letter be submitted indicating that the change of use and the Development Permit and Building Permit activities on-site will not impact the stability of the site.
RECOMMENDATION:
THAT first and second reading be given to View Royal Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 811, 2011, Amendment Bylaw No. 883, 2014 to amend the land use designation of the subject property to C (Commercial);
AND THAT first and second reading be given to Land Use Bylaw, 1990, No. 35, Amendment Bylaw No. 884, 2014 to amend the zoning of the subject property to C-7: Business Park Commercial;
