City of Revelstoke Council Report
File No.: 3360-20, ZON 2016-46
To: His Worship Mayor McKee and Members of City Council From: Dean Strachan, MCIP, RPP Manager of Development Services Date: November 23, 2016 Subject: Rezoning – Vacation Rental – 306 Downie Street
RECOMMENDATION:
1. THAT the application to rezone a portion of Lot 1 Section 26 Township 23 Range 2 West of the 6th Meridian Kootenay District Plan 9471 (306 Downie Street) from R2A – Special Low Density Residential District to R2Av – Special Low Density Vacation Rental District be approved.
2. THAT Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 2163 be read a First and Second time and staff be directed to schedule a Public Hearing.
CAO Comments:
Approved for Council consideration. AC
Background:
Located on the subject property at 306 Downie Street is an existing single family dwelling (see Figure 1). The owner has a Preliminary Layout Approval (PLA) to subdivide the subject property into two lots. The property has an Official Community Plan (OCP) land use designation of T4 –Walk Up Residential (see Figure 2) and is zoned R2A –Special Low Density Residential District (see Figure 3). The owner, Walter Maki, has applied to rezone the portion of the property where the new vacant lot is to be created to the R2Av – Special Low Density Residential Vacation Rental District subzone.
The owner is applying for a rezoning in order to allow for short term (less than 30 days) Vacation Rental use. The owner has applied for a four bedroom full home Vacation Rental to be constructed in the future on the yet to be created new vacant lot (see Figure 4). If Council approves the rezoning application, grants First and Second Readings to Zoning Bylaw No. 2163 and approves scheduling of a Public Hearing, neighbouring property owners and occupants within 100m of the subject property would then be sent a notice of the Public Hearing along with an information package. Ads notifying the community of the Public Hearing would
City of Revelstoke Council Report
also be placed in the newspaper. The following definition for Vacation Rental from the Zoning Bylaw No. 1264 includes limiting regulations for the use:
Vacation Rental – means the licensed use of a residential single detached dwelling or a licensed secondary suite as temporary lodging (less than 30 days at any one time) for paying guests. Vacation Rental use is restricted to a total of no more than 120 days per calendar year. The maximum occupancy shall be calculated based on two adults per licensed bedroom with a total maximum occupancy of eight people. No signage shall be permitted. The property owner is to provide a contact number for themselves or a representative located within the City and available 24 hours a day. The contact number is to appear on the Business License posted in the Vacation Rental Unit.
Zoning Bylaw No. 1264 also provides the following vehicle parking requirements:
Vacation Rental parking requirement is one parking space per licensed bedroom within
the vacation rental unit up to a maximum of four parking spaces. No more than two parking spaces are permitted within the front yard area. The property owner is to request that Vacation Rental guests park all vehicles within the allocated parking areas on the property.
The annual Business License fee for Vacation Rental units is $200.00 plus $5.00 per licensed bedroom. The owner would require a Business License, which would require an inspection of the subject property by the Fire Department and the Chief Building Official as a part of the Business License Application review process. Options / discussion:
There are currently no properties on Downie Street that are zoned for vacation rental use. The subject property is located within an established residential neighbourhood with a mix of newer and older homes.
If Council does not support the application proceeding, the owners would be notified and the file would be closed.
Financial / Risk Implications:
No financial or risk implications are anticipated from the proposed recommendation.
Others Consulted:
The following City of Revelstoke Departments and outside agencies received referrals for the subject application: Engineering, Operations, Building, Parks, Recreation & Culture, RCMP, Fire Rescue Services, BC Hydro, Interior Health, Fortis, Telus, and RCTV. No referral responses with concerns were received.

a) Development Services - ZON2016-36 Zoning Amendment Bylaw 2148 - Vacation
Rental - 424 Third Street East - Bryce Dawbin, John Borlase and Joanne Borlase
Council Regular Minutes Tuesday, December 06, 2016 P a g e | 2
D. Low, Director of Corporate Administration confirmed that all due process was followed
and five public submissions opposed and one submission from the property owner
explaining his intentions were received.
McKee called for comments from the established Speakers List.
Bryce Dawbin and Ashley Borlais - Applicants
Mr. Dawbin advised that they applied for rezoning for future options. He explained that
many of the neighbour concerns were pre-existing conditions. Mr. Dawbin advised that
Ashley will be managing the property and of the 120 allowable rental days, all may not be
during the winter months.
Mort Rafuse - 418 Third Street East
Mr. Rafuse was opposed to the rezoning application. He advised that he and his wife have
enjoyed the consistency of the neighbourhood for the last 41 years and did not want a
vacation rental in their neighbourhood. Mr. Rafuse stated that parking was consistently an
issue and that he was also concerned that there would be no turning back after the
rezoning is approved. Mr. Rafuse advised that he would be okay with long term rental.
Jim Abramson - 426 Third Street East
Mr. Abramson was opposed to the rezoning application. He advised that his major
concern was parking but was also concerned about parties and snow removal.
Shaun Aquiline - 430 Third Street East
Mr. Aquiline was opposed to the rezoning application. He advised that parking was the
biggest issue with snow removal, he also had safety concerns.
Leon Remus - 420 Third Street
Mr. Remus was opposed to the rezoning application. He congratulated the owners on
improving the building. Mr. Remus was concerned with traffic and parking. Mr. Remus
also expressed concern regarding a revolving door of people coming with little or no
investment in the neighbourhood. He stated that he was in favor of long term rentals.
Jill Zacharias - Third Street
Ms. Zacharias was opposed to the rezoning application. She explained that all of the
neighbours on that side of the street were opposed. Ms. Zacharias was concerned with
parking and snow removal and explained that the neighbours work with each other to
ensure that the snow removal could be completed properly. She stated that the City does
not plow the alley, the neighbours all pay individually to have the alley cleared.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the public a first time.
Stephanie Melnyk - 406 Robson Avenue
Ms. Melnyk was opposed to the rezoning application. She explained that she approached
the property owner and found common ground. Ms. Melnyk inquired about moving
forward with a difference approach such as attaching the rezoning to both the applicant
and the property rather than only the property. She stated that she had concerns about the
impacts on the rental market.
Bryce Dawbin - Applicant
Mr. Dawbin stated that he would not be opposed to having the Vacation Rental status
become non-transferable. Mr. Dawbin explained that he is not introducing any new
parking or snow removal issues and showed Council a photo of parking plan located at
the rear of the lot and explained that the parking area would be heated.
Council Regular Minutes Tuesday, December 06, 2016 P a g e | 3

property.
Mayor McKee encouraged any neighbours with parking concerns related to their own
properties to go see Development Services to discuss available parking options.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the public a second time.
Brian Tobin - 1089 McCarty Crescent
Mr. Tobin expressed concern about the impact that Vacation Rentals have on people who
have already invested in the community. He stressed that being ‘good neighbours’ was
what its all about.

Council Regular Minutes Tuesday, December 06, 2016 P a g e | 4
b) Development Services - ZON2016-37 Zoning Amendment Bylaw 2149 -
Vacation Rental - 2101 Mary Hansen Place - Evelyn Ens and John Warren
D. Low, Director of Corporate Administration confirmed that all due process was followed
and that four opposed public submissions were received prior to publishing the agenda
and one opposed submission was received since publishing from A. Davies and she read
the submission to Council.
McKee called for comments from the established Speakers List.
John Warren - Applicant
Mr. Warren explained that he purchased the property in 2008 but since that time, his wifes
employment situation changed their intentions. Rezoning to a Vacation Rental would
allow them to have two homes. He explained that their plan was to use the property as a
Vacation Rental until they are able to return to Revelstoke in 4-5 years. Mr. Warren
expressed a desire for his property to hold a short term change instead of permanent
rezoning.
Fred Olsson – 2102 Mary Hansen Place
Mr. Olsson was opposed to the rezoning application. He stated that the rezoning
amendment would be a death sentence for the neighbourhood and urged Council to
protect the area.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the public a first time.
Dorothy Scott - 2017 Laforme Boulevard
Ms. Scott advised that she was not necessarily opposed. She spoke of the strict rules in
place for Vacation Rentals she had stayed in. Ms. Scott echoed the concerns of the
neighbourhood with respect to noise, parking and snow removal. She did not think that
the RCMP should have to enforce noise issues related to Vacation Rentals.
Property Manager - 2038 Highland Road
The Property Manager stated that although the neighbours concerns were legitimate, she
would be the enforcer and screen all potential guests. She explained that someone had to
be over the age of 30 to rent this property and that she would be on call 24/7.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the public a second time.
Brian Kozak – 2105 Mary Hansen Place
Mr. Kozak was opposed to the rezoning application. He stated that his main concern was
the permanence of the zoning change. Mr. Kozak inquired about what recourse
neighbours and Council would have if things go south.
Mayor McKee explained the business license process and the possibility of not renewing
licenses if problems were significant.
Fred Olsson – 2102 Mary Hansen Place
Mr. Olsson explained that the neighbourhood already had existing problem rentals and
was concerned that the Vacation Rental would increase problems.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the public a third time.
Council Regular Minutes Tuesday, December 06, 2016 P a g e | 5
John Warren - Applicant
Mr. Warren stated that the neighbours had valid concerns and that he didn’t want what
was happening on Laforme Boulevard to occur on Mary Hansen Place. He didn’t view
long term rental as better because one renter could potentially sublet rooms which could
increase the parking and noise issues. Mr. Warren advised that he would be happy with a
5 year covenant to allow for Vacation Rentals on his property.
Brian Tobin – 1089 McCarty Crescent
Mr. Tobin commended Mr. Warren on his comments but stated that the problem was
guests that don't appreciate the neighbourhood.
Dorothy Scott - 2017 Laforme Boulevard
Ms. Scott inquired about how many rezonings could happen in the neighbourhood.
Mayor McKee explained that there was no criteria set on limiting the number of Vacation
Rentals in a particular neighbourhood. The only criteria set out was a maximum of 125
Vacation Rental bedrooms which could be revoked by not renewing a business license as
the result of ongoing problems.
Property Manager - 2038 Highland Road
The Property Manager advised that Mr. Warren would contribute by paying PST and GST
as well as Municipal Regional District Tax which funds go back into Revelstoke with a
benefit. She also clarified that there is no hot tub on this property.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the public a final time. Upon hearing none, the
following resolution was made: Moved by Councillor English
Seconded by Councillor Sulz
THAT the Public Hearing end at 4:28 pm.

School District No. 19
D. Low, Director of Corporate Administration confirmed that all due process was followed
and that one opposed public submission and one response submission were received.
McKee called for comments from the established Speakers List.

community. He stated that we were fortunate to have Heritage Revitalization Agreement
Council Regular Minutes Tuesday, December 06, 2016 P a g e | 6
process in BC. Mr. Jones explained that he ultimately wanted to secure the building for
future generations.
Dr. Cam MacLeod - Selkirk Medical Group
Dr. MacLeod was opposed to the rezoning application. He explained specific concerns
with the health service centre and clinic use. Dr. MacLeod stated that the Selkirk Medical
Group had concerns of how the rezoning would affect their recruitment and retention.
Dr. Chris MacDonald - Selkirk Medical Group
Dr. MacDonald explained that he was Chief of Staff at Queen Victoria Hospital and a
physician at Selkirk Medical Clinic for the past 17 years. He stated that their concern was
not the revitalization or even the financial competition, it was regarding a stand alone
clinic which could affect Revelstoke’s medical community. He stated that Selkirk Medical
Group recruited to maintain a compliment of physicians to sustain services in conjunction
with Interior Health.
Dr. Vicki Haines - Selkirk Medical Group
Dr. Haines stated that she was a GP with enhanced surgical skills and that she did not
oppose the development but had concerns specifically with the allowance for a medical
clinic in the rezoning. Dr. Haines explained that Selkirk Medical Group would like to see
any further development of medical services in community done in a collaborative way
with all affected individuals.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the public a first time.
David Evans - 3669 Catherwood Road
Mr. Evans questioned why the onus was put on Mr. Jones to contact the Selkirk Medical
Group. He stated that the plan to include a medical clinic had been in the public domain
for 3-6 months and wondered why the Selkirk Medical Group did not reach out to him?
Dr. Cam MacLeod
Dr. MacLeod agreed that Mr. Evans concerns were entirely valid and that they heard
about the rezoning application through the newspaper. Selkirk Medical Group was unsure
how to approach the issue and decided to approach it as a team as none of them had ever
experienced something like this. Dr. MacLeod explained that they had just recently
learned of the public hearing and that they had no intention of waiting until last minute.
Gareth Jones - Applicant
Mr. Jones stated that the Public Hearing should be more about the Heritage Revitalization
Agreement as the wider issue actually sits across hundreds of properties in Revelstoke.
A. Chabot, Chief Administrative Officer explained that Council has the opportunity to
change usage, provided that the applicant consents or they can defeat the rezoning
application. He explained that Council should consider the interest in land and not the
viability of particular uses or institutions.
D. Strachan, Manager of Development Services advised that Revelstoke has 267 properties
zoned C1 which would allow for medical facilities as well as the option for home based
medical facility businesses totaling approximately 1400 properties in Revelstoke.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the public a second time.
Council Regular Minutes Tuesday, December 06, 2016 P a g e | 7
Dr. Vicki Haines – Selkirk Medical Group
Dr. Haines stated that she recognizes that the Public Hearing was for a zoning issue and
that if it went forward, it would not solve their issue.
Gareth Jones - Applicant
Mr. Jones stated that the long term goal was to get 5 physicians but currently, he was
trying to recruit just one. Mr. Jones explained that he was not trying to flood the market
with physicians, that the medical clinic was part of a longer term strategy.
