The Mayne Island Local Trust Committee asked the owner of Lot B to register a covenant restricting development of proposed Lot 2 until rental housing on proposed Lot 3 is completed, as a condition of rezoning the Mayne Island Housing Society application MA-RZ-2020.1.[1]
The committee also specified that Lot 2’s building site should be the area marked “A” on a map dated July 15, 2020, and that the wetlands shown on the map be preserved.[1]
The committee asked staff to refer the application package, including draft bylaws, a housing agreement and available covenants, to the Mayne Island Advisory Planning Commission; Planner Narissa Chadwick said she would add the Ministry of Agriculture to the referral list.[1]
At the meeting, Deborah Goldman, speaking for the housing society, said its proposed mixed rental model was 30% affordable, 50% rent geared to income and 20% deep subsidy, as defined by BC Housing.[1]
