Zoning Amendment Bylaw 1212, 2023:
Staff presented draft - Zoning Amendment C9A-Tourist Commercial Bylaw 1212, 2023 - that adds a new Tourist Commercial Zone with fewer permitted uses, including the removal of Apartment Hotel, additional development density and adds “boat storage” to the I1- Industrial Zone. Council amended the draft bylaw by removing the addition of “boat storage” to the I1 – Industrial zone.
