Municipal Hall, 981 Artisan Lane, Bowen Island
Bowen Island Municipality Official Community Plan 282, 2010 Amendment Bylaw No. 459,2018.
Bowen Island Municipality Land Use Bylaw No. 57, 2002 Amendment Bylaw No. 460, 2018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
391 Salal Road is a 2.55 ha (6.3 acre) property located adjacent to Josephine Lake. The property owner wishes to subdivide the property into two properties. Current land use regulations would not permit the subdivision of the property. 391 Salal Road is currently designated R1-Rural (2 ha) in Bowen Island’s Official Community Plan, and Rural Residential 3 (RR3) zone in the Land Use Bylaw.
To permit the subdivision, the property owners have applied to amend the Official Community Plan land use designation to the RS – Residential
(1 ha) designation, and to amend the Land Use Bylaw zone to the Rural Residential 3(b) zone.
As a part of the application, the property owners have proposed a trail right-of-way be dedicated to pass from Salal Road to the Crown Land to the west of the property.
MORE INFORMATION AT MUNICIPAL HALL:
The proposed bylaw and background material may be viewed on this page below, or at Municipal Hall between 8:30 AM and 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday (excluding statutory holidays).
