Introductions were made by the Board members and staff members
..-
present, and then by the Bantry Bay Estates delegation group. Randy
Ftichar provided background information on Homes by Us and then
presented a slideshow presentation which provided the Board with a
more detailed look at the proposed development. The presentation
included information on the proposed lot arrangement, land area
breakdown, and lot servicing. Mr. Ftichar indicated that he believes
that this new development will stimulate the economy of the area.
Upon the conclusion of the presentation, the floor was opened for
questions. Councillor Harbinson inquired about the distance of the
sewage lagoon to Lake Newell. John Barry, an engineer with MMM,
stated that the lagoon would be 600 feet away from the lake until the
mechanical plant is built. The plant will be 1000 feet away from the
lake. He also indicated that the lagoon would contain treated effluent
that would be used to irrigate adjacent land during the summer
months. Councillor Douglass inquired about the total acreage of the
development. Mr. Fitchar stated that the entire development is taking
place on approximately a quarter section of land in total.
Left the Meeting
The Bantry Bay Estates Delegation and Alex McCuaig left the meeting at 10:38
a.m.
After the delegation left the meeting, further discussion continued
about the proposed development. Councillor Harbinson provided some
background information on the previous development proposals for
this area. Bruce Mckellar stated that he doesn't feel as though the
development should go forward until an agreement is made with the
EID and the sewage issue is.fully addressed. Councillor Harbinson
would like to see this development tie into the City of Brooks sewage
system which would require the developer to enter into an agreement
with the city. The County Planner provided more information regarding
the next steps in the process, indicating that the first step would be
rezoning the property. She also informed the Board that the developer
is looking for an indication from MPC as to whether Council would be
comfortable having this development move forward. Councillor Daniels
reminded the Board that we have to ensure that we are protecting the
water supply. He also stated that he feels that a peninsula should not
be a location for sewer lines. Councillor Andrews stated that he is
concerned with the pipelines to the east where the proposed golf
course or tree farm might be located. Councillor Harbinson indicated
that the development looks good, but that he wants all of the
conditions to be laid out before moving forward. Councillor Wutzke and
Councillor Douglass agreed that the developer should be given the
opportunity to move forward, but that all issues surrounding the
proposed development should be hashed out before the development
gets too far along. Kevin Stephenson, County Administrator, stated
that he feels the biggest issue that the Board has to deal with, aside
from the environment issues, is deciding how much development is
desired next to the Lake. The .County Planner asked the Board if they
felt that they needed more information before the developer applies to
rezone the property. Further discussion ensued regarding the density
of development around the lake. The Development Control Officer
suggested sending the developer a letter highlighting the concerns
including water, sewer, density of development, and development on
the peninsula, as outlined in the above discussion. Councillor Eastman

stated that he feels that we should move far enough ahead in the
process in order to involve the public and see what their opinions are.
The Board decided to leave this item and come back to it later in the
meeting.

item before the delegation arrived. Councillor Harbinson indicated that
there was an oilfield company operating on the property earlier.
Discussion continued regarding the fact that sandblasting is not

Light Industrial District or as an Isolated Light Industry in the
Agricultural District.

14. OTHER BUSINESS C I~NT_D
a) Sandblasting in the County of Newell
Mr. Torkelson indicated that he would prefer to work at the Traichel
property. He stated that he would use a blasting tent to alleviate the
noise concerns and most of, if not all of the dust concerns that may be
brought up by adjacent land owners. Mrs. Traichel indicated that Mr.
Torkelson is willing to do anything necessary as far as conditions go in
order to work in the County of Newell. The County Planner took a
moment to clarify the situation at hand. She reminded the Board that
the applicant is looking for direction as to whether or not MPC would be
willing to hear an application for sandblasting on the Traichel property.
The County Planner then stated that with the new Land Use Bylaw,
sandblasting could be considered on the Traichel property.

d) Permit #3170 -Block 1, Plan 931 1397, Ptn. Of SE 15-18-14-W4
Loren Mitchell (Owner) /Shawn Torkelson, Vortex Sandblasting
(Applicant)
Operation of a sandblasting and painting business
After receiving confirmation from the Board that they would consider an
application to sandblast on the Traichel property, Mr. Torkelson decided
to withdraw Development Permit #3170.
Mrs. Traichel asked the Councillors to please make sure that they have
an opinion on the application based on factual evidence and not solely
on the opinions of adjacent land owners.
Left the Meetino
Shawn Torkelson, Sandy Traichel, and the adjacent land owners of Development
Permit #3170 left the meeting at 1:26 p.m.
Further discussion continued after the delegation left the meeting.
Councillor Daniels indicated that the first application to sandblast on the
Traichel property was appealed because of sandblasting not being
specifically listed as a use in the Light Industrial District. He believes
that sandblasting needs to be listed as a use before any application for
sandblasting on the Traichel property can be approved. The County
Planner stated that the S.D.A. B. is able to uphold a decision permitting a
use not specifically listed in a land use district so long as the
interpretation of the definition of that activity being a similar use is
correct. The County Planner also indicated that sandblasting was not
specifically listed 'rn the Light Industrial District because it is usually
done in conjunction with painting or welding, and therefore is not the
primary use. The County Planner indicated that she believes that since
sandblasting would not be the primary use in a painting or welding shop
that an approval would stand if the decision was appealed. Councillor
Wutzke stated that he feels that sandblasting should be listed as a
discretionary use in the Light Industrial District. Bruce McKellar also
thinks that sandblasting should be specifically listed in the Light
Industrial District. Councillor Daniels agrees with Councillor Wutzke and
Bruce McKellar.
P-24/08 MOVED BY B. INcKELLAR that the Municipal Planning Commission
February 26, 2008 Municipal Planning Commission Page 10
~~°
recommend to Council that a bylaw be made to amend the Light
Industrial District of Land Use Bylaw 1626-07 to include sandblasting as
a discretionary use.
MOTION CARRIED
Left the Meetinca
Councillor Wutzke left the meeting at 1:46 p.m.
Councillor Harbinson asked for further clarification about why the other
application decision was reversed by the S.D.A.B. He also inquired as to
the reasons the adjacent land owners presented in support of appealing
the Municipal Planning Commission's decision approving the application.
6. BUSINESS FROM MINUTES COhIT'D
a) Bantry Bay Concept Plan - E ~/z of 32-17-14-W4M, Randy Ftichar /
Homes by Us
The Board decided to further discuss item 6a. Councillor Douglass asked
whether we should encourage the developer to adjust the proposed plan
or encourage him to go ahead with a land use amendment application.
The Development Control Officer displayed a map of the adjacent land
near Lake Newell which allowed the Board members to see what the
other land is zoned. This gave E3~oard members a chance to determine
where and how much other development may occur around Lake Newell.
Councillor Douglass inquired as to how long ago the Lake Newell Resort
development began. Councillor Daniels indicated that the Lake Newell
Resort development has been established over approximately the last 15
years. Councillor Philipsen asked the Board what the County Planner
should tell the developer if he phones to see how the presentation went.
Councillor Daniels stated that he is against the application moving
forward. Councillor Andrews stated that just because previous
developers working at Lake Newell may have been hard to deal with,
that we shouldn't be putting these people into the same category.
Councillor Douglass asked if we need a bigger idea of what we foresee
happening around Lake Newell. The consensus seems to be that the
Board is in favour of the application moving forward as long as a set of
conditions are laid out right from the start. Councillor Daniels stated that
there will need to be a public access to the water. The County Planner
asked the Board if the Area Structure Plan presented today is sufficient
to present to Council in support of a Land Use Amendment application.
The County Planner will also check with the developer in regards to
whether or not having phase 3 of the development will make or break
their plan as MPC is not totally comfortable with having development on
the peninsula.

Councillor Eastman inquired about putting in an application to subdivide his
yard in order clarify terminology used on subdivision resolutions. The
County Planner informed the Board that for this example, the existing use
would be listed as "Agricultural".and the proposed use would be listed as

for the public reading the minutes. The County Planner further explained
the reasons behind the use of the terminology stem back to the old
planning commissions.
