REPORT TO THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER FROM THE DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING SERVICES DEPARTMENT

ON

LIQUOR LICENCE APPLICATION NO. LIQ00155

8888 BARNHARTVALE ROAD OWNER: COCHRANE GOLF CLUB

APPLICANT: EAGLE POINT GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB PURPOSE To consider a resolution to modify the hours of operation of an existing Liquor Primary Licence for the Eagle Point Golf & Country Club (Eagle Point). SUMMARY Eagle Point is located in Barnhartvale and is zoned A-1 (Agricultural). The southern portion of the property is within the Agricultural Land Reserve and is surrounded by active farms to the south and west, Crown land to the north, and farm land within the Thompson-Nicola Regional District to the east. The property contains an 18-hole golf course, restaurant, and pro shop. Eagle Point currently has two Liquor Primary Licences. One licence is for the restaurant and the other is for a beverage cart/kiosk that serves golfers while they are on the course. The applicant is requesting a change to the hours of operation for the beverage cart/kiosk Liquor Primary Licence, as outlined in the table below. Current Hours Proposed Hours

10:00 am-12:00 midnight, Monday-Thursday 10:00 am-12:00 midnight, Monday-Sunday 11:00 am-1:00 am, Friday and Saturday 11:00 am-12:00 midnight, Sunday

Currently, Eagle Point's two Liquor Primary Licences have different hours of operation, as the restaurant opens at 10:00 am Monday-Sunday. The purpose of this application is to standardize the hours of operation between the bar and the beverage cart/kiosk. It should be noted that the beverage cart/kiosk generally only operates during the hours when golfers are on the course, regardless of the licence giving it permission to stay open until midnight. The earlier opening of the beverage cart/kiosk will allow Eagle Point to take advantage of earlier summer tee times by providing golfers with a wider range of on-course refreshments. This Liquor Primary Licence allows alcohol consumption throughout the golf course and limits the number of patrons that can use the beverage cart/kiosk.

25

LIQUOR LICENCE APPLICATION NO. LIQ00155 February 17, 2016 Page 2


In accordance with provincial liquor licensing regulations, Council must formally comment on the proposal and specifically address regulatory criteria, the potential for noise, and the potential impact on the community. The views of neighbourhood residents will also be considered. From a regulatory perspective, the A-1 zone permits outdoor recreation facilities, including golf courses. This application will not contribute to an increase in traffic as patrons will already be on the property playing golf. The subject property's size and proximity to farmland and low-density residential uses also limits concerns regarding increased traffic or noise. The City has been moving toward standardizing the opening hours of Liquor Primary Licences on golf courses to 10:00 am. The most recent example is Kamloops Golf & Country Club. Given the existing 10:00 am opening of Eagle Point's restaurant Liquor Primary Licence, Planning and Development Division staff support the proposed change. Upon referral, the RCMP indicated that the proposed change of hours does not create a safety risk to the neighbourhood and the RCMP does not have any grounds to oppose the application. The Social Planning Council reviewed the application via email and supports the application. The applicant has entered into a Good Neighbour Agreement (a requirement for all establishments with a Liquor Primary Licence) to ensure community impacts are minimized (Attachment "A"). As the application is supported by pre-existing zoning regulations, impacts on the community are expected to be minimal. The public notification process provides an opportunity for the residents of the area to present their views to Council. Accordingly, staff support the application and advise Council to proceed as outlined in the recommendation.

RECOMMENDATION: That Council: a) Authorize distribution of Notice of Intent to consider a resolution

of support for a permanent change of opening hours for Eagle Point Golf & Country Club, located at 8888 Barnhartvale Road (Liquor Primary Licence No. 142435);

b) Subject to approval of item a), consider the following resolution

in support of a permanent change of opening hours for the establishment:

WHEREAS:

• Eagle Point Golf & Country Club has applied to the BC Liquor Control and Licensing Branch to modify its hour of operation for Liquor Primary Licence No. 142435;

• The BC Liquor Control and Licencing Branch requires a formal resolution from the City of Kamloops commenting on the application;

26



• The Liquor Licence amendment is supported by the City of Kamloops Zoning Bylaw;

• The City of Kamloops has considered noise, community impact, and whether the change will result in the establishment operating in a manner that is contrary to its original purpose;

• The City of Kamloops has sought the views of the community by way of circulating a notice to all properties within 100 m of the subject property; and

• Eagle Point Golf & Country Club has a Good Neighbour Agreement with the City of Kamloops,

NOW RESOLVE THAT Council supports the proposed amendment to Liquor Primary Licence No. 142435 to allow operation during the hours of 10:00 am-12:00 midnight, Monday-Sunday, subject to Eagle Point Golf & Country Club complying with its Good Neighbour Agreement.

COUNCIL POLICY Council Policy No. GGL-12, Review Process for a New Liquor Licence or for permanent or temporary changes to an existing Liquor Licence, provides guidelines for reviewing the Liquor Licence amendment application.

REZONING APPLICATION NO. REZ00583

2815 TRANQUILLE ROAD OWNER: GOVORCIN APARTMENTS LTD.

APPLICANT: BRITISH COLUMBIA SOCIETY FOR THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS

PURPOSE To rezone the subject property on a site-specific basis to permit a British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (BC SPCA) animal shelter and create a definition for animal shelter use. SUMMARY The subject property is located within the Brocklehurst neighbourhood, east of the Kamloops Airport. The vacant property is 9, 012 m² in area and zoned I-1 (Light Industrial). An animal shelter is not permitted under the existing I-1 zone; therefore, a site-specific zoning amendment is required to allow the proposed use. The applicant is a representative of the BC SPCA and proposes to develop the property as an animal shelter with a spay and neuter clinic. The proximity of the property to the Kamloops Airport is ideal as many lost, abandoned, stray, and neglected animals received by the BC SPCA are transported by plane. The subject property is designated Special Development Area in KAMPLAN: City of Kamloops Official Community Plan and is located in the Airport Entry Corridor in the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan. At this time, the applicant only seeks zoning approval, but will require a Development Permit prior to building on the lot. The Development Permit will ensure the future building, site, and landscape design consider neighbouring properties and uses. To avoid potential land use conflicts with residences on neighbouring properties, staff support a number of restrictions in the existing I-1 zone. These include prohibiting bulk petroleum product sales and storage, storage of asphalt materials, and crematoriums, as well as a requirement that any sandblasting activities occur indoors. As a condition of zoning approval, restricting the aforementioned uses on the subject property will be a requirement of the site-specific zoning amendment. Currently, the C-6 (Arterial Commercial) zone is the only zone that permits an animal shelter (which is the current zoning for the BC SPCA on 8th Street); however, a definition for animal shelter does not exist in the current Zoning Bylaw. Therefore, staff recommend the Zoning Bylaw include a definition for animal shelter. The Development and Engineering Services Department supports the proposed rezoning and advises Council to proceed as outlined in the recommendation.

35

REZONING APPLICATION NO. REZ00583 March 10, 2016 Page 2


RECOMMENDATION: That Council authorize a Public Hearing to consider the following: a) Amending Zoning Bylaw No. 5-1-2001, Division Four, Definitions,

by adding the following:

- ""Animal Shelter" means a building and/or lot operated by a non-profit animal rescue society, providing temporary care and accommodation for lost, abandoned, stray, or neglected animals. Animals permitted include dogs, cats, and small animals (e.g., mice, rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters). Commercial kennels are not permitted."

b) Amending Zoning Bylaw No. 5-1-2001, Division Forty-Six,

I-1 (Light Industrial), Section 4602, Permitted Uses - Site Specific, by adding:

- "Animal shelter; prohibiting bulk petroleum product sales

and storage, storage of asphalt materials, and crematoriums; and requiring that any sandblasting activities must occur indoors in the case of Lot 1, D.L. 251, K.D.Y.D., Plan 11189 (2815 Tranquille Road)."

COUNCIL POLICY • KAMPLAN: City of Kamloops Official Community Plan, Section II - Growth Management,

3.0 - Special Development Areas • North Shore Neighbourhood Plan, Section Four - Land Use Policies, 4.15 - Airport Entry

Corridor SITE CONDITIONS AND BACKGROUND • Neighbourhood - Brocklehurst • KAMPLAN Designation - Special Development Area • Current Zoning/Use - I-1 (Light Industrial) • Proposed Variance - I-1 (Light Industrial) site-specific to permit a

36



DISCUSSION The subject property is located in the Brocklehurst neighbourhood near the entrance to the Kamloops Airport. The subject property is 9, 012 m² in area and is located within the 20- and 200-year flood plains. The Development and Engineering Services Department received a rezoning application for the subject property to facilitate a BC SPCA animal shelter, which will include a spay and neuter clinic. Under Animal Control Bylaw No. 34-11, 13.1(a),

No person shall use any premises as a kennel for the keeping, training, care, breeding, hospitalization, or boarding of cats or other animals on any parcel of land within the City unless the said parcel is specifically permitted by the City of Kamloops Zoning Bylaw.

The proposed use does not fully meet the intent of a kennel; therefore, an amendment to include a definition in the Zoning Bylaw for animal shelter is also proposed. The subject property is located within the Airport Entry Corridor of the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan and will require a Development Permit prior to construction; however, the applicant seeks only zoning approval at this time. Zoning The applicant proposes rezoning the subject property from I-1 (Light Industrial) to I-1 with a site-specific zoning amendment to permit a BC SPCA animal shelter. The purpose of the I-1 zone is to regulate the development of a limited range of light industry and compatible uses. Staff support the requested zoning change to allow an animal shelter, with a number of restrictions on the existing I-1 zone, including prohibiting bulk petroleum product sales and storage, storage of asphalt materials, and crematoriums, as well as requiring that any sandblasting activities occur indoors to avoid potential land use conflicts with residences on neighbouring properties. The adjacent C-4 (Service Commercial) zone permits animal-related uses, including animal grooming, retail sales, and veterinary clinics, but it prohibits outdoor kennels. The applicant has indicated that the animals are mainly indoors, but the site will include outdoor kennels, areas for dog walking, and outdoor communal areas for cats. Screening, fencing, and buffering will be addressed at the Development Permit stage. Currently, the C-6 zone permits animal shelter, which is the current zoning for the BC SPCA on 8th Street; however, a definition for animal shelter does not exist in the current Zoning Bylaw or Animal Control Bylaw. The proposed changes to the Zoning Bylaw include creating a definition for animal shelter. To ensure compliance, staff propose amending the Definition Section of the Zoning Bylaw by adding the following definition: - "Animal Shelter" means a building and/or lot operated by a non-profit animal rescue

society, providing temporary care and accommodation for lost, abandoned, stray, or neglected animals. Animals permitted include dogs, cats, and small animals (e.g., mice, rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters). Commercial kennels are not permitted.

37



KAMPLAN/North Shore Neighbourhood Plan KAMPLAN designates the subject property as Special Development Area. Special Development Area is land proposed to be developed at some future date in order to accommodate population growth between 100,000 and 120,000 population horizons, as well as to accommodate development that requires specialized design and sensitive integration considerations. In most cases, individual land use, servicing, traffic, and design studies will be required prior to development approvals. Specifically, the subject property is located in the Brocklehurst West Special Development Area, which identifies incorporating a mix of residential, commercial, light-industrial, and airport-oriented uses. Development in this manner is also supported by the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan. The property is surrounded by a large parcel to the north, which would allow for a comprehensive development, and a mix of commercial and residential uses. As well, the property to the east will accommodate residential uses oriented toward the existing residential uses. The proposed use on the property complies with the commercial, light industrial, and airport-oriented uses that are supported in the Special Development Area. Development Permit The subject property is located within the Airport Entry Corridor of the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan. This is viewed as a significant gateway to the North Shore from the Kamloops Airport and agricultural land to the west. A Development Permit is required prior to construction and will address site design, building elevations, landscaping, parking, access, and vehicular circulation. However, at this time, the applicant only seeks zoning approval, and a Development Permit Application will be made at a later date. Technical Considerations Site servicing, including water and storm drainage, as well as access, will be addressed in conjunction with the future Development Permit and Building Permit once the final site design is completed. Sanitary infrastructure does not exist in front of the proposed development. It may be possible to extend a new private sanitary service from the existing municipal sanitary main, which is 196 m to the east. An easement between the adjacent property owner and approval to cross the Kinder Morgan pipeline and the TELUS easement are required (see Attachment "A" Utilities Map, showing the proposed extension). The Tranquille Road and Airport/Gateway Corridor Concept Plan adopted by Council on July 8, 2015, and Subdivision and Development Control Bylaw No. 4-33 specify future upgrades for the Tranquille Road frontage of the subject property. In conjunction with issuing Building Permits, the applicant will be required to undertake frontage improvements or contribute funds equivalent to the cost of curb, gutter, and sidewalk upgrades. SUSTAINABILITY IMPLICATIONS The Sustainable Kamloops Plan recommends that the City ensure that appropriate commercial activities are located within all city neighbourhoods to meet the community's needs. The Kamloops economy will continue to be well diversified, continue to attract a number of socially sustainable businesses, and will support economic diversity.

TEMPORARY USE PERMIT NO. TUP00051

DEVELOPMENT PERMIT APPLICATION NO. DPM00557 2793 TRANQUILLE ROAD

OWNER/APPLICANT: KARL BAUER PURPOSE To issue a Temporary Use Permit (TUP) to allow an outdoor recreational vehicle/boat storage facility on the subject property and to issue a Development Permit to control the site design, landscaping, screening, and fencing. SUMMARY The subject property located at 2793 Tranquille Road is currently vacant, 3,975 m2 in area, and zoned C-4 (Service Commercial). The development site is located on Tranquille Road across from the Kamloops Airport, is flanked by other C-4 zoned lots on both sides, and backs onto existing single- and multiple-family residential developments. The applicant's proposal is to develop the lot into an outdoor storage facility for recreational vehicles, boats, etc. (Attachment "A"). The C-4 zone only permits outdoor storage as an accessory use. Accordingly, an application for a TUP has been submitted. KAMPLAN: City of Kamloops Official Community Plan supports the utilization of a TUP for commercial or industrial uses for a period of three years with the option to renew for one additional three-year term, provided the use: • Does not have a negative impact on adjacent lands; and • Does not permanently alter the site upon which it is located. A TUP provides the opportunity to allow uses on a temporary basis that are not permitted in the zone. Given the proximity to residential development and the location in the Airport Entry Corridor, staff feel a TUP is an appropriate tool to evaluate potential impact to the neighbourhood. If the applicant wishes to continue the use after the term of the TUP has expired, he may apply for a one-time renewal for another three-year term, or apply to rezone the subject property to permit a permanent, outdoor recreational vehicle/boat storage facility. KAMPLAN designates the subject property as a Special Development Area due to its location within the Airport Entry Corridor. The North Shore Neighbourhood Plan recognizes that the Airport Entry Corridor is a significant gateway to the City. Development along Airport Road and Tranquille Road should occur in such a way as to reflect the gateway role the airport plays for Kamloops and should create a good first impression and provide a positive image for the city. As such, the applicant proposes a TUP at this time to review and establish if the proposed outdoor recreational vehicle/boat storage use is suitable and to determine future development potential.

TEMPORARY USE PERMIT NO. TUP00051 March 10, 2016 DEVELOPMENT PERMIT APPLICATION NO. DPM00557 Page 2


The objective of the North Shore Commercial and Industrial areas and Airport Entry Corridor Permit Area Guidelines is to ensure a high standard of built form, site design, and landscaping and to ensure new development complements existing development on adjacent properties. A landscape plan prepared by a landscape architect has been included with the application (Attachment "A") that addresses on-site and boulevard treatments. Intensive landscaping, including a mix of deciduous trees, shrubs, perennials, and ornamental grasses, along with the construction of a 1.8 m solid vinyl fence along the front and rear property lines, provides effective screening from adjacent residentially zoned properties and Tranquille Road. Black chain-link fencing is proposed along the side property lines adjacent to other C-4 zoned land. Landscape security in the amount of 125% of the landscape estimate ($17,868) will be required prior to registration of the Development Permit. The proposal includes a variance to the landscaping and fencing requirements to permit a 1.8 m fence in the front yard and to reduce the on-site landscaping requirements from 10% to 0%. All proposed landscaping is to be concentrated in the wide boulevard area in the front of the fence, where it is most effective. The amount of boulevard landscaping is equivalent to 6.8% of the area of the site. Future development of a permanent use will require the provision of on-site landscaping. It should be noted that the development site will be surfaced with milled asphalt to address dust control. To ensure the safe and effective movement of vehicles to and from the site, the gate at the entrance to the development has been set back 10 m to allow for vehicles accessing the site to pull off of Tranquille Road while waiting for the gate to open. Should the application be approved by Council, the applicant will be required to address site servicing requirements as a condition of the site servicing Building Permit, including grading and draining of the parking area in accordance with the Zoning Bylaw and the City's Design Criteria Manual. The Tranquille Road and Airport/Gateway Corridor Concept Plan adopted by Council on July 8, 2015, and Subdivision and Development Control Bylaw No. 4-33 specify future upgrades for the Tranquille Road frontage of the subject property. In conjunction with issuing Building Permits, the applicant will be required to undertake frontage improvements or contribute funds equivalent to the cost of curb, gutter, and sidewalk upgrades. The Development and Engineering Services Department supports the proposed TUP and Development Permit, as it complies with KAMPLAN's policy on TUPs and the site design and landscaping meet the objectives of the Development Permit Area Guidelines.

RECOMMENDATION: That Council authorize: a) Distribution of a Notice of Intent to issue a three-year Temporary

Use Permit for Lot 15, Blk. 6, D.L. 250 and 251, K.D.Y.D., Plan 2456, Except Plans 19963 and 23087 (2793 Tranquille Road), to permit the development and operation of an outdoor recreational vehicle/boat storage facility; and

44



b) Subject to approval of item a), issuance of a Development Permit for Lot 15, Blk. 6, D.L. 250 and 251, K.D.Y.D., Plan 2456, Except Plans 19963 and 23087 (2793 Tranquille Road), in accordance with the site/landscaping plan shown as Attachment "A".

Note: Issuance of this Development Permit will vary Zoning Bylaw No. 5-1-2001, Division Fifty-Three, Landscaping, Screening and Fencing as follows: • Section 5310(I), increasing the maximum fence height in any yard

from 1 m to 2 m; and • Section 5310(VI), reducing the minimum landscaping requirement

PETERSON CREEK MULTI-USE PATH PROJECT PHASE 1

BIKEBC FUNDING PROGRAM AUTHORIZATION PURPOSE To seek Council's authorization to apply to the BikeBC Funding Program for Phase 1 of the Peterson Creek Multi-use Path (MUP) Project, and, if successful, to update the 2016-2020 Financial Plan accordingly. SUMMARY The BikeBC Funding Program, managed by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, is a three-year program that commits a total of $18 million to projects that encourage cycling, walking, recreation, and tourism. The program may contribute 50% of the project value, up to a maximum of $1 million. The City is eligible to apply to the program for the Peterson Creek MUP Project. The deadline for the next intake of applications is April 8, 2016. The Peterson Creek MUP is identified in the City's Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Trails Master Plans, and will be an important active transportation link between Sahali and the City Centre. At present, there is no dedicated cycling link. The proposed MUP will provide a safer, more direct, and more attractive means of cycling and walking between the two areas. A preliminary design report for the project was completed in 2012, and provides technical recommendations and cost estimates for completion of the MUP and associated work. In 2016 dollars, the cost for the entire project is estimated at $5.25 million. The project has been separated into three phases to better align with the BikeBC Funding Program. Attachment "A" illustrates the proposed phasing of the project. Phase 1 is the primary MUP link between Sahali at Summit Drive and Peterson Creek Park near Glenfair Drive and will consist of a 1.7 km long paved MUP. Design and construction of Phase 1 is estimated to cost $3.25 million. Future phases of the project include the Summit Connector MUP, the Peterson Creek Upper Trail, and the Bestwick Connector MUP, all of which are shown on the aerial map for reference. Phase 1 of the project meets the BikeBC Funding Program criteria. A successful funding application would help advance all phases of the project and allow for other major active transportation projects to be completed sooner. If the grant application is successful, construction of Phase 1 of the project is expected to begin in 2017.

51

PETERSON CREEK MULTI-USE PATH PROJECT PHASE 1 March 7, 2016 BIKEBC FUNDING PROGRAM AUTHORIZATION Page 2


RECOMMENDATION: That Council authorize: a) Staff to apply to the BikeBC Funding Program for Phase 1 of the

Peterson Creek Multi-use Path Project; and b) The Finance Director to update the 2016-2020 Financial Plan, if

the grant application is successful, to:

• Increase the 2017 Active Transportation-Major Projects budget (Capital Project No. 976103) by $1.5 million, with the funding sources identified as $1 million grant revenue and $500,000 from the Community Works Fund; and

• Reduce the 2018 Active Transportation-Major Projects budget (Capital Project No. 976103) by $500,000 to $0.

COUNCIL POLICY The Council Strategic Plan 2015-2018 identifies Transportation Goals and Objectives, including to "identify project funding for initiatives and priorities contained in the Pedestrian, Bicycle, and Trail Master Plans". ALTERNATIVES/OPTIONS If Council's authorization is not granted to apply for the BikeBC funding or if the maximum application value of $1 million is not received from BikeBC, the alternative is that Phase 1 of the Peterson Creek MUP project would not advance. The funding shortfall would be made up by accruing additional year(s) of Active Transportation - Major Projects budgets. Should Phase 1 of the project not be advanced, subsequent phases as well as other major active transportation projects may be delayed. SUSTAINABILITY IMPLICATIONS Transportation is identified as one of the City's key components in the Sustainable Kamloops Plan (SKP). The completion of the Peterson Creek MUP Project will help the City achieve the SKP target of having 30% of people use modes other than vehicles for travel to places of employment by 2020. Should the BikeBC funding be received, Phase 1 of the project will be completed three years earlier and other major active transportation projects will be advanced.

COUNCIL MEMO

Date: March 10, 2016

To: Mayor and Council

From: B. J. McCorkell, Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services Director

RE: Electric Vehicle Adoption Rate

This memo is in response to a letter to Council from Mr. Jim Hindson, Victoria Electric Vehicle Club, dated March 3, 2016, outlining recommended measures for local governments to accelerate the adoption rate of electric vehicles (EV). Mr. Hindson represents one of the several EV organizations that circulated an open letter communication to all BC municipalities. City staff support the objective to explore the benefits of battery EVs in Kamloops, as they may provide several sustainability benefits and support specific targets in the Sustainable Kamloops Plan, including reducing the consumption of fossil fuels for transportation by 25% by 2020 and reducing transportation-related GHG emissions to 2.4 tonnes/capita by 2020. The City has initiated a number of measures to support the adoption of EVs in Kamloops, including the following: • Partnered with the Province and BC Hydro to install a DC fast-charging station for public

use at the Tournament Capital Centre (TCC), and a level two charging station at the Tourism Kamloops Visitor Centre.

• Updated Council Policy GGA-17, Vehicle Fleet Colours and Replacements, on

November 28, 2006, to replace compact fleet vehicles with hybrid vehicles. • Entered into a two-year sponsorship agreement with River City Nissan to use a Nissan

Leaf EV to promote the environmental benefits of EVs. Staff are currently working to renew this agreement.

• Delivered presentations to the business and tourism community on the benefits and

opportunities of promoting EV-friendly business and tourism. • Submitted a request to the Sustainability Committee to use Climate Action Revenue

Incentive Program (CARIP) funding to conduct an EV suitability assessment that will form the basis of a business case to determine if the adoption of EVs in the corporate fleet is appropriate, including an operational plan to establish a corporate EV charging infrastructure.

• Expressed a willingness to consider requests from the Province and BC Hydro to increase

the versatility of the TCC DC fast-charger station (i.e., convert to a dual fast-charger station).

• Prepared a proposal to Council for the City to take the West Coast Electric Fleet's

"On-Ramp" pledge and committing to evaluate EVs as part of all suitable fleet purchases and leases.

Mr. Hindson's letter also recommends that municipal governments advocate for and lead a number of other measures that are intended to support the development of EV-related infrastructure at the community level. City staff recommend further research be done on these measures and suggest presenting the results to the KAMPLAN Advisory Committee for consideration with respect to the Official Community Plan. At Council's direction, staff could pursue any of the other measures outlined in the attached correspondence. B. J.
