BL240 3.4 No dwelling unit may be constructed or altered to accommodate a home occupation such that the external appearance of the dwelling unit in which it is conducted plainly indicates the presence of a home occupation use. BL240 3.5 Except for one unilluminated nameplate not exceeding 0.6 square metres in area in respect of each residential lot upon which the home occupation(s) is occurring, no sign or other advertising matter may be exhibited or displayed on the premises where a home occupation is conducted, and no exterior artificial lighting may be installed or operated on the premises for a purpose associated with the home occupation unless it is a type in keeping with the residential character. 3.6 No more than three persons may be employed in any home occupation, at least one of whom must reside permanently on the premises on which the home occupation is conducted. BL240 3.7 Except for the retail sale of goods produced, processed or repaired as part of a home occupation, and retail sale of articles directly related to a service provided as a home occupation, the following activities are not permitted: 1. Retail or wholesale selling of any products or material 2. The serving of food or drink products on the premises as part of a home occupation except for bed and breakfast home occupation in which case a morning meal may be served to paying guests. 3.7 No restaurant, cafe, commercial water bottling enterprise, boarding kennel, fur farm, feed lot or manure-based mushroom growing enterprise is permitted as a home occupation. 3.9 No home occupation may generate waste, noise, vibration, glare, fumes, odours, illumination or electrical interference ordinarily detectable off the lot on which the home occupation is conducted or consume more groundwater than would normally be consumed by a residential use of land. 3.10 The number of bedrooms used to accommodate paying guests in a bed and breakfast home occupation including any accommodation in a cottage must not exceed: 3.10.1 two if the lot is in the VR1 or VR2 zone; and 3.10.2 three if the lot is in any other zone permitting home occupations.

Galiano Island Official Community Plan 108 - Excerpt BL248 SECTION VII TEMPORARY USE PERMITS 1. Circumstances i. The Local Trust Committee may issue Temporary Permits for all areas covered by this Plan. ii. The Local Trust Committee may consider preparing amendments to Galiano Island Local Trust Committee Impact Assessment Bylaw No. 58, 1998 for adoption by Trust Council to require development approval information for Temporary Use Permit Applications through adoption of a development approval information bylaw. 2. Objectives i. Permits for temporary uses may be issued for short term uses or as a test of the compatibility of the proposed land use, which may not have been anticipated, with existing uses. ii. iii. Permits can be issued for any period up to three years and could be considered for renewal once for any further period up to three years. In addition, the following guidelines apply when the Local Trust Committee is considering the issuance of a temporary use permit for a commercial vacation rental: a) for the purpose of a temporary use permit, commercial vacation rental means the use of a residence as temporary commercial accommodation for a period of less than a month at a time by persons, other than the owner or a permanent occupier; b) the Local Trust Committee should consider the cumulative effects on the neighborhood and Island of all the temporary use permits issued for commercial vacation rentals; c) the Local Trust Committee may consider issuance of a temporary use permit for a commercial vacation rental provided the proposal would not alter the residential appearance of the residence; d) the Local Trust Committee may require mitigating measures to address neighbours concerns, such as retention of existing screening and fencing, or installation of additional screening; e) the landowner should demonstrate an adequate supply of water and septic capacity for the duration of the proposed use; f) the landowner should demonstrate that the property is able to accommodate off-street parking for a minimum of two vehicles; g) in addition to any other conditions the LTC may consider appropriate, the 94

permit may: require that the owner or other contact be available on Galiano by telephone 24 hours/day, seven days per week and include the name and contact information in the conditions of the permit; require the owner or manager to provide neighbours within a 100 metre radius of the vacation rental with the owner or manager s phone number, and a copy of the temporary use permit; require the landowner to post for guests information on noise bylaws, water conservation, fire safety, storage and disposal of garbage and recycling, septic care and control of pets (if pets are permitted), and remind guests that the property is located in a residential area; establish a maximum number of people that can stay; establish a maximum number of guests per bedroom; prohibit camping or occupancy of RVs on the property; restrict advertising to one unilluminated sign, with a maximum area; prohibit the rental or provision of motorized personal watercraft; prohibit outdoor fires; establish the dates during which the use may occur; and include a provision stating that the bylaw enforcement officer may enter the property between certain hours without prior consultation if a complaint is received; require that the landowner/operator post for guests emergency service contact information and to provide a means for contacting them; require the landowner/operator to post contact information and permit information at the entrance to the property; and h) a temporary use permit respecting a parcel in the Agricultural Land Reserve may require the approval of the Agriculture Land Commission prior to the permit being issued. 95

Hornby Island Land Use Bylaw Extract the applicant must grant a covenant complying with Section 3.22 in respect of every such lot prohibiting further subdivision of the lot. 3.21 Where: a subdivision is proposed that yields fewer than the maximum number of lots permitted by the applicable minimum average lot size specified in Part 9; and one or more of the lots being created has an area equal to or greater than twice the applicable minimum average lot size; the applicant must grant a covenant complying with Section 3.22 in respect of every such lot prohibiting further subdivision of the lot so that the potential number of lots is no greater than the number of lots that would have been created if the previous subdivision had created the maximum number of lots permitted by the applicable minimum or minimum average lot size specified in Part 9. COVENANTS GENERALLY 3.22 Where under this Bylaw an owner of land is required or authorized to grant any covenant or statutory right of way, the covenant or statutory right of way must be granted to the Hornby Island Local Trust Committee in priority to all financial charges and delivered in registerable form satisfactory to the Hornby Island Local Trust Committee prior to the granting of any approval or authorization in respect of which the covenant or statutory right of way is required. The covenant must indemnify the Hornby Island Local Trust Committee in respect of any fees or expenses it may incur as a result of a breach of the covenant by the covenantor. BL 143 BL 145 VACATION HOME RENTAL USES 3.23 Vacation home rental uses must be in accordance with the following limitations: 3.23.1 A dwelling unit may only be occupied by paying guests during the months of May, June, July, August and September. 3.23.2 Despite 3.23.1, on any lot permitted two dwelling units, one dwelling unit may be occupied by paying guests at any time, provided that an owner or tenant is resident in a second lawful dwelling unit on the lot during the vacation home rental occupancy. 3.23.3 During a period of seven (7) consecutive days a dwelling unit may be occupied by only one group of paying guests. Information Note: The following information note is not part of the bylaw and is for information purposes only. Regulation 3.23.2 permits the use of a vacation home rental for a period of less than seven days (for example a three night rental). The regulation does not permit a vacation rental unit to be rented for, say, three days to one group and then three days to a different group during that same seven day period. Limiting rental turnover within a seven day rental period in a dwelling was deemed by the community and the Local Trust Committee to be important in helping maintain the rural residential character of Hornby s neighbourhoods, while allowing vacation home rental use to occur in a dwelling. 3.23.4 A dwelling used for vacation home rental use shall not be used to accommodate more than 2 beds per bedroom and more than 3 bedrooms if the lot on which the dwelling is located has an area of less than one hectare, or more than 4 bedrooms if the lot has an area of one hectare or more. Hornby Island Land Use Bylaw, 1993 13

3.23.5 A vacation home rental use shall not alter the residential character or appearance of the lot in which the vacation home rental use is located, with the exception of required parking spaces and a required sign that must be posted only when a vacation home rental is in use as required in Part 7.0. 3.23.6 Motor vehicle parking spaces shall be provided in accordance with Part 5.0 of this bylaw. 3.23.7 On lots designated as Aquifer IA on Schedule D1 of the Hornby Island Official Community Plan Bylaw No 104, vacation home rental use is permitted provided that an authorized person as defined in the Sewage System Regulations under the Public Health Act has stated in writing to the Islands Trust that the sewage disposal system to which the building accommodating the proposed vacation home rental use is connected is capable of providing adequate sewage treatment for residential use and for the proposed vacation home rental use. An owner may secure a written statement of a second authorized person if the first authorized person is not able to confirm the required capability. Hornby Island Land Use Bylaw, 1993 14
