CARRIED Mr. Don Warkentin entered the meeting at 9:16 a.m. #4 DELEGATIONS #4.1 DELEGATION 4.0 DELEGATIONS 4.1 S / HUDSON WARKENTIN / DONALD WARKENTIN AND PETER WARKENTIN / NW W5 / FIRST PARCEL OUT / LITTLE SMOKY AREA Manager Rosson presented an overview of proposed Subdivision application S The application was for a 5.52 hectare ± (13.64 acre) parcel within NW W5, in the Little Smoky area, Ward 2. Manager Rosson presented additional information as follows: The Land Use Bylaw designated this quarter as Agriculture (A) District. A single family dwelling and three (3) accessory buildings were currently on the proposed lot. The proposal would allow for future residential development. There was an existing approach to the proposed subdivision from Township Road 681. Since the access road on the balance (adjacent to the east boundary) had not met Greenview standards, construction of an approach to the balance of the quarter from Township Road 681 was required to be installed. In accordance with comments received from Greenview s Manager, Construction and Maintenance, road widening was not necessary; however, a 10 metre by 10 metre corner cut was required in the northwest corner of the proposed subdivision. 11

12 Minutes of a Regular Municipal Planning Commission Meeting January 9, 2018 M.D. of Greenview No. 16 Page 10 The applicant had proposed an oversized parcel of 5.52 hectares ± (13.64 acres). Administration recommended that the length of the east and west boundaries be reduced to 243 metres from metres. This would have reduced the proposed subdivision size to 4.71 hectares ± (11.63 acres) but would have still accommodated the current buildings and compliance with setback requirements. The dugout onsite would require a Development Permit with a variance for the setback from the property line as well as adequate fencing, guardrails and/or berming to the satisfaction of the Development Authority. Greenview s current Land Use Bylaw stated that a dugout should have a minimum of 41 metres (134 feet) setback from a road allowance. As the pump-out sewer system was 7.02 metres short of meeting provincial setback requirements of 50 metres (165 feet) from a water source, a variance would also be required from Alberta Municipal Affairs. Mr. Don Warkentin spoke as the Applicant. The Applicant stated that the purpose of an oversized parcel was to accommodate existing structures. He explained that the dugout had likely been developed as a borrow pit for road construction of Township Road 681. Municipal Planning Commission discussed the following: It was questioned as to why the existing approach on the east side of the quarter had been considered inadequate to Greenview standards. Members stated that Township Road 681 was a dead-end road heading west and agreed that it was unlikely that it would be developed further. Manager Rosson advised Members that an adjacent landowner had suggested that the proposed subdivision be extended on the south and east boundaries in an effort to protect their property from run-off and chemical drift that they felt would occur from new agricultural activities on the balance of the quarter. It had not been calculated as to how many acres the adjacent landowner s suggestion would have included. Member Urness vacated the meeting at 9:30 a.m. Members anticipated that run-off and chemical drift for the Applicant s proposed parcel size would not exceed other proposed subdivisions in the vicinity of an agricultural operation. They recognized that the parcel was oversized as proposed according to the current Land Use Bylaw; however, it was felt that it would not encompass productive land and agreed not to increase it in size. Member Urness re-entered the meeting at 9:35 a.m. 12

13 Minutes of a Regular Municipal Planning Commission Meeting January 9, 2018 M.D. of Greenview No. 16 Page 11 Members discussed the two (2) conditions regarding setback variances and fencing around the dugout and felt that they would not be required. Members discussed the removal of the condition regarding parcel size reduction and suggested that the motion be amended to exclude a reduction in size. Chair Dale Smith advised Mr. Warkentin that Municipal Planning Commission would render a decision later in the meeting. #6 SUBDIVISIONS 6.0 SUBDIVISION APPLICATIONS 6.1 S / HUDSON WARKENTIN / DONALD WARKENTIN AND PETER WARKENTIN / NW W5 / FIRST PARCEL OUT / LITTLE SMOKY AREA Manager Rosson had previously presented an overview of proposed Subdivision application S The application was for a 5.52 hectare ± (13.64 acre) parcel within NW W5, in the Little Smoky area, Ward 2. Municipal Planning Commission discussed the following: Members agreed to remove the two (2) conditions regarding setback variances and fencing around the dugout. Members had also agreed that the condition regarding parcel size reduction be removed and that the motion be amended to reflect the change. In addition, Members felt that the condition regarding dedication by Plan of Survey for road widening of a 10 metre corner cut had been unnecessary and agreed on removal of the condition. Member Acton vacated the meeting at 9:41 a.m. NW W5 MOTION: Moved by: CHAIR DALE SMITH That Municipal Planning Commission (MPC) APPROVE Subdivision Application S for a 5.52 hectares ± (13.64 acres) parcel within NW W5, subject to the following conditions, as amended: Reasons: 1.
