The next regular meeting of the
OBWB will be held November
2, 2021 at 10 a.m. online.
BOARD REPORT: October 8, 2021
Okanagan Basin Water Board Meeting Highlights Water Board presents water issues to B.C. finance committee: The board was provided an
update on a presentation made to B.C.’s Select Standing Committee on Finance and
Government Services as part of its consultation on the 2022 provincial budget. The
OBWB was invited to present and submitted three priorities: funds to support the
Okanagan Lake Regulation System review; funding to prevent invasive zebra and quagga
mussels from entering B.C.; and, establishment of a permanent Watershed Security
Fund. A copy of the written submission can be found at https://bit.ly/2Yl7yFi.
Source Water Protection Toolkit presented to board: Directors were briefed on the OBWB’s
new Source Water Protection Toolkit. The toolkit was developed in consultation with, and
for, water utilities, local, provincial and First Nations government staff, conservation
groups and water professionals. It is designed to simplify source protection planning and
inspire a more holistic and collaborative approach to drinking water management. A
webinar series to introduce the toolkit will be held each Wednesday, 11 a.m. to noon,
from Oct. 20 to Dec. 15. The series is geared to those involved in water protection and
management, as well as elected officials. Details & registration at https://bit.ly/OBWB-
SPwebinars.
OBWB reviewing summer drought & prepping for next summer: The board was updated
on the continuing drought. The province downgraded the Okanagan to drought Level 3
on Sept. 22. In the South Okanagan however, Shuttleworth and Inkaneep creeks remain
at Level 4 and Vaseux Creek at Level 5. Staff are talking with provincial, federal, local
government and utility partners to review how the summer went, and how water data
collection and drought communications can be improved. It was noted there was a lot of
media attention, including national, on the Okanagan this summer, with the
temperatures, fires and ongoing drought, including from CBC Radio’s The Current. Their
team visited Kelowna and talked with a cherry farmer and the OBWB. The radio clip is
available at https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-63/clip/15867290.
Hydrometric stations installed in Okanagan: The board was provided a progress report on
its new Hydrometric Information Network Program and the installation of stations with
Okanagan Nation Alliance at several creeks, including Mill (in Kelowna), Powers (West
Kelowna), and Naramata. Additional stations are in progress at McLean (Penticton),
Shuttleworth Creek (at Okanagan Falls), and Deep Creek (Vernon). Environment and
Climate Change Canada had earlier re-installed a station at Pearson Creek (a tributary of
Mission Creek), and an additional station is being installed at Trout Creek (Summerland).
The stations are important to understanding water supplies and climate change.
UBC Okanagan AquaHacking champ presents winning water solution: Yosamin Esanulla,
one of four UBCO members of Team SIP – winners of the 2021 Western Canada
AquaHacking Challenge – spoke about this year’s challenge and the team’s development
of a backpack with a mobile filtration system. The challenge was co-hosted by the OBWB
and AquaAction. Other finalists include Eledigm from UBCO with a solution for drinking
water contamination in cisterns, and Eco-Water from University of Saskatchewan which

LEGAL DESCRIPTION Lot 1, DL 41, SDYD, Plan 87359
OCP DESIGNATION Comprehensive Development
ZONING Existing Proposed
CD 7 – Comprehensive Zone 7 CD 11 – Comprehensive Zone 11
The purpose of this report is to request that Council consider Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 1085.140, 2021 (Attachment 1). The amending Bylaw, if adopted, would allow for a new Comprehensive Development Zone (CD11) to be added to the zoning bylaw.
OVERVIEW
Site context and proposal:
The subject property is located at the north end of Cottonwood Drive, adjacent to Osoyoos Park. This vacant property was the subject of a previously approved development proposal. The current zoning of CD7 allows for a seven story multi-family condominium development with up to 171 units (mixed residential, resort residential and commercial).
The current proposal is for a total of 56 residential units; consisting of six single family homes 14 townhomes (in three buildings) and a 36 unit condominium complex with under building parking and an open air garage area. The proposal also includes an amenity building, a pool and a proposed strata moorage facility fronting the property.

Policy Content
Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 1230, 2007
The current designation on the property is Comprehensive Development. This designation was approved concurrent with the rezoning in 2007 which created the CD7 zone. The rezoning to a new Comprehensive Development Zone is in conformance with the Town’s OCP. Note that the Town’s new OCP (currently at 1st reading) maintained the CD designation in anticipation of a new rezoning proposal for this property. Multi-Family Development Permit Area (MFDPA) Development of the property under the proposed zoning (CD11) regime will require the issuance of a development permit in conformance with the Multi-Family Development Permit Area guidelines. Schedule “B” of the Town’s OCP includes the Commercial & Multi-Family Façade Guidelines. The guidelines set forth a threshold of design expectations which must be demonstrated in each project in the Town. Such guidelines include the use of earth-tones and soft muted colours in addition to simple or plain geometry. The proposed buildings include tones of gray, black, tan and white, these colour palettes are aligned with the vision outlined in the OCP. Attachment 3 to this report includes artistic renderings of the site and shows the distribution of the proposed colours across the buildings. The massing of the buildings is appropriate for the site. Note that the varied dwelling types are stepped back from the lake which provides optimum lake views for residents of the development and also maintains an attractive view from the lake itself. The draft Development Permit, inclusive of a landscaping plan which will be provided to Council and the public as part of the Public Hearing package.
Zoning Bylaw No. 1085, 1998
The subject property is currently zoned CD7 – Comprehensive Development (Bylaw No. 1085.64). Note that many local governments in BC use “comprehensive development zones” to package site-specific land use regulations where an existing category for the proposed uses does not exist. The use of CD zones allows for a bylaw to state the use, density and siting requires along with associated parking; these bylaws typically include a site plan as a schedule to the bylaw. Additional information specific to the development will then be included in the associated Development Permit. The subject property was rezoned in 2007 to allow for a comprehensively planned multiple family project (CD7). The CD7 zoning allowed for resort multiple family dwellings (commercial use), multiple family dwellings, a licensed establishment, restaurant, and retail store. The maximum height permitted in the CD7 zone was 24 metres. Note that the zoning bylaw defines resort multiple family dwellings as a business operated with a rental pool scheme and guest registration much the same as a hotel or motel. The newly proposed zoning (CD11) consisting of strictly residential, would not allow for commercial use of the residences (inclusive of short term rentals).

Restrictive Covenants There are two restrictive covenants registered on title of this property. The first is on which prohibits the development of a foreshore marina. This covenant was registered as part of the previously approved CD-7 zone. The intent was to prevent a marina from being located adjacent to the public park. It is the staff’s understanding that a pier was, at one time, proposed to be located in Osoyoos Park; however, a pier is no longer being considered for this location. The new owners of 8000 Cottonwood are seeking Council approval to remove the covenant, concurrent with final adoption of the new zone amending bylaw (Bylaw No.1085.140). Removal of the covenant would allow for an appropriately scaled strata marina to be located in the foreshore of the property (subject to all applicable provincial approvals). An amendment to the Town’s Foreshore and Lake Zoning Bylaw No. 1294, 2012 would also be required in order to proceed with the strata moorage facility. Staff are supportive of a strata marina at this location as it would be similar in nature to the multi-family moorage facilities located along Cottonwood Drive. A second covenant was registered as part of the CD7 zoning process and it is a density bonus covenant. This covenant can also be discharged at the time the new zoning is approved as it is no longer relevant. Foreshore and Lake Development Permit (FLDP) The Riparian Areas Protection Regulation (RAPR) was enacted under Section 12 of the Fish Protection Act in July 2004. The Fish Protection Act was subsequently re-titled the Riparian Areas Protection Act in February 2016. The RAPR calls on local governments to protect riparian areas during residential, commercial, and industrial development by ensuring that a Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) conducts a science-based assessment of proposed activities. As required under RAPR, the developer has retained the services of a QEP to perform reconnaissance work on the site and prepare the necessary reports to support both the residential development and the development of the proposed marina. Initially, work was performed on the site to determine the appropriate setback from the lake for development. Following Council’s review of the proposal the QEP will forward their report(s) to the Province, as required, for the residential portion of the proposal. The proposed strata marina will require an additional study; the layout of the marina must be aligned with the Provincial Best Practices for marine development. Additional information can be found at: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/crown-land-water/crown-land/crown-land-uses/commercial-uses/marinas-yacht-clubs Issuance of the above noted development permits is a function of the subdivision process and would be contingent on zoning approval from Town Council in addition to releasing the above noted covenant. Dedication of Land to the Town As identified in the aerial photograph below, the existing turnaround (end of Cottonwood Drive) is located partially on the subject property. As part of the development approval process this area will be dedicated as road, the developer will also be dedicating land (indicated in blue) to add to the existing
Page 26 of 46
2021 10 26 RPT 1 8000 Cottonwood CD11 Page 4 of 9
Town laneway which extends from Cottonwood Drive to 45th Street and serves as a pedestrian walking and biking trail. This will allow for a laneway which is wide enough to accommodate operational service vehicles. With some improvements this lane could also serve as a future emergency exit from the north end of Cottonwood Drive.
Rationale for Recommendation Staff are in support of this new proposal to develop the site with a mix of residential units. The proposed development is scaled appropriately for the site and the proposed height of the building at a maximum of 24 metres (for the condominium building only) is the same as that which was permitted as part of the CD7 zone (previous zoning) with a much smaller residential density. IMPLICATIONS
a) Community The community will benefit from this new housing. The widening of the public lane will provide for a future emergency exit and improved pedestrian access.
b) Organizational The preliminary development proposal package has been forwarded to outside agencies (i.e. MoTI) for comment; significant comments received through the referral process will be presented at the Public Hearing. A notice of development sign has been posted on the subject property (Attachment 4). Notification of the Public Hearing will be mailed or otherwise delivered to properties within a 60 metre radius as per the Town’s Land use Procedure Bylaw following Council’s approval of the application and 1st and 2nd readings of the amending bylaw. A form and character development permit will be required. The draft development permit will be available for Council and public review as part of the Public Hearing package. Note that Attachment 3 to this report provides the information that will be required for the development permit.

2021 10 26 RPT 1 8000 Cottonwood CD11 Page 5 of 9
c) Budget The proposed zoning amendment has no implications for the Town’s budget at this time. Consideration may be given, in the future, to improvements to Osoyoos Park inclusive of defining and paving a parking area for visitors to the Park.
d) Significant Dates Should 1st and 2nd reading be granted, staff would schedule a public hearing in November.
e) Sustainability
The property is located within a municipally serviced area; confirmation regarding available services has also be received.

REPORT
Council
MEETING DATE: October 26, 2021
TO: Mayor and Council
CC: Allan Chabot, CAO
FROM: Brianne Hillson, Director of Corporate Services
SUBJECT: Council Procedure Bylaw No. 1367.01, 2021 – Consideration of First
Three Readings
TRACKING NO.: BLW-310
BACKGROUND During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Provincial government declared a State of Emergency, which gave municipalities powers under Ministerial Order 192 to hold meetings electronically to conduct the regular business of the municipality. The Provincial Government lifted the State of Emergency on July 1, 2021, which meant that the authority for the Town to hold electronic meetings under the COVID Related Measures Act expired on September 28, 2021. OVERVIEW n September 29, 2021, the Municipal Affairs Statutes Amendment Act (Bill 10) came into effect. The purpose of Bill 10 was to amend both the Community Charter and Local Government Act and now expands the statutory authority through the Town’s Procedure Bylaw to conduct regular meetings and committee meetings by electronic communications. Currently, the Town’s Council Procedure 1367, 2020 permits the Council to conduct business electronically in special meetings. Staff has prepared an amendment to Council Procedure Bylaw No. 1367 with the proposed changes:
• Amending Part 2, Section 8 to permit a special council meeting, regular Council meeting, closed Council meeting, Committee of the Whole or committee meeting being conducted by electronic communications when approved by the Corporate Officer;

• The facilities must enable the public to hear or watch the meeting at the specified place (Council Chambers or another location) with a designated municipal officer in attendance.

Although Bill 10 has amended the ability for municipalities to conduct business electronically, in-person attendance by Council members at local government meetings supports the principles of transparency, accountability, accessibility, and fairness in decision-making. Electronic participation should be the exception and not the norm, and Council members needing to participate electronically should only do so for good and sufficient reason. During the COVID-19 pandemic, good and sufficient reason includes the prohibition on mass gatherings, reducing the risk of transmission, and protecting persons who may be immune-compromised. IMPLICATIONS
a) Community Ensures that Council is providing accessible, accountable, open and transparent government to the residents of the community.
b) Organizational None
c) Budget Cost of advertising twice in the Times Chronicle as per section 94 of the Community Charter.
d) Significant Dates
This bylaw needs to be passed in a timely fashion, as regular Council meetings, council committee meetings cannot be conducted electronically until this bylaw amendment is adopted by Council.
e) Sustainability
Providing leadership and guidance to staff and transparent, good government to the residents of Osoyoos.
OPTIONS 1. That Council Procedure Amendment Bylaw No. 1367.01, 2021 be read a first, second and third
time and notice be given of Council’s intention to adopt an amended Procedure Bylaw as required by the Community Charter.
2. That Council Procedure Amendment Bylaw No. 1367.01, 2021 be referred to staff for changes. 3. That Council Procedure Amendment Bylaw No. 1367.01, 2021 be abandoned.
