Proposed Bylaw 2013-17 is a Land Use Bylaw amendment to reduce security requirements for relocated dwellings and manufactured homes, and eliminate security requirements for relocated accessory buildings.
Proposed Motion
1. That Council give first reading to Bylaw 2013-17 amending the Land Use Bylaw 20-2009 respecting relocated buildings;
2. That Council schedule a Public Hearing on June 25, 2013, at 9:30 am.
Body
Administrative Recommendation
Administration supports the amendments as proposed in Bylaw 2013-17 to amend Land Use Bylaw 20-2009, as well as the amendments to Fees & Charges Schedule E.5.
Background
Administration brought a discussion of the regulations for relocated buildings and structured to GPC for their discussion and review. Currently the Land Use Bylaw states that a security deposit is required for all relocated buildings, in accordance with the adopted Fees & Charges Policy Schedule E.5. The security deposits are $10,000.00 and $5,000.00 for single detached dwellings and single wide manufactured homes, respectively.
A discussion of this matter and review of three adjacent municipalities' practices were presented at the GPC meeting of May 21, 2013. GPC instructed Administration to bring forward amendments to the Land Use Bylaw and Fees & Charges Schedule E.5 to Council as follows:
1. Eliminating security requirements for relocated accessory buildings;
2. Reducing security for relocated and/or removal of single detached dwellings (stick built) or double wide manufactured homes from $10,000.00 to $5,000.00 in Fees & Charges Policy Schedule E.5; and
3. Reducing security for relocated and/or removal of single wide manufactured homes from $5,000.00 to $2,000.00 in Fees & Charges Policy Schedule E.5.
The related amendments to Fees & Charges Policy Schedule E.5 will be brought forward for Council's consideration in a separate RFD following third reading of Bylaw 2013-17 on June 25.
