9 Strathcona REGIONAL DISTRICT 4/ STAFF REPORT DATE: July 4, 2014 FILE: EASC TO: Chair and Directors Electoral Areas Services Committee FROM: RE: PURPOSE Russ Hotsenpiller Chief Administrative Officer REZONING APPLICATION (RZ ID 13) CRAIG ROAD, ELECTORAL AREA D, (STOREY CREEK TRADING LTD.) To provide clarification related to matters raised at the May 7, 2014 Electoral Area Service Committee (EASC) meeting. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On May 7, 2014 the EASC recommended the following: "THAT the application be deferred to address the issues identified and brought back to the Committee as soon as possible." Public amenities Staff researched and clarified that the potential registration of a statutory right-of-way for a public trail can overlap with the area of Easement Plan VIP1216. The following suggested public amenities included in the proposed zoning bylaw amendment 199 (Attachment 1), therefore remain valid: The registration of a statutory right-of-way for public use COPY Staff determined that there are no barriers for the registration of a statutory right-of-way for public use that would enable the extension of the Hagel Greenway over the subject lot D. Attachment 2 indicates the location of an existing Easement Plan VIP61246, on the southern boundary of the subject Lot D. Easement Plan VIP61246 was created in 1995, to provide access to a well located on Lot D, to service Lot C (located in the south-west corner of the intersection of Craig Road and Neigel Crescent). Easement Plan VIP61246 exists only as a registered plan in the Land Titles Office, without an instrument attached to it to enforce this plan. It remains a mystery why Easement Plan VIP61246 was either not cancelled or properly completed with an associated registered grant of an easement on the titles of the subject properties. Without an associated instrument, the land owner of Lot C cannot exercise the water right that the plan provides and therefore the plan has no effect on the subject Lot D. As Lot C was connected to the Craig Road Water System in 2005, the property is no longer dependent on receiving water from the well on Lot D. On the basis of the aforementioned, the registration of the proposed statutory right-of-way to allow for trail purposes, identified as one of the density bonusing amenities within the proposed new zone, will not be affected by the existing easement plan The provision of a 500m2 size lot for 'utility use' purposes Amongst other, Attachment 1 also indicates the proposed 500m2 lot located on the south east corner of the proposed Lot 2, to be used for 'utility use'. At this time, the most needed 'utility
