history of the Mutus Road intersection and the direction to move forward. He explained
that staff has started to study this intersection again after some changes did not show an
improvement in 2008-2010. Traffic on the Trans Canada Highway has increased about 14%
in summer since 2004. The City of Revelstoke, along with businesses in the area, provide
manual traffic control on long weekends but are seeing a need to provide a level of control
outside of the long weekends.
Page |6
Past studies have recommended two roundabouts with a central median that would limit
all left turns, which is not an ideal solution for all stakeholders but might meet Ministry of
Transportation and Infrastructure requirements. None of other options have provided an
excellent outcome for all stakeholders.
Mr. Thomas advised that the City has applied for a Strategic Priorities Fund grant through
UBCM; unfortunately there will be a lot of competition across BC for the funds. There is
funding in the budget for construction in 2016; partly through Development Cost Charges
and surrounding developments such as McDonalds and Petro Canada.
Community and stakeholder consultation is a priority. Mr. Thomas stated that the next
steps include seeking and selecting an engineering consultant; developing options;
choosing an option; budgeting work in 2016; tendering work; adopting borrowing bylaws,
if necessary; and completing a contract with a goal of construction starting after the long
weekend in September 2016.

Mayor McKee read the written submissions to the public then called for comments from
individuals on the Speakers List, attached.

precautions and a permitting system.
Michael Brookshill - 457 Cedar Street
Mr. Brookshill voiced support for the bylaw. He stated that he agrees with Ms. Hemphill
and would like to see the community be more self sufficient. Mr. Brookshill advised that

concerns as they come up are provided.

a)
Stuart Andrews RE: Gravel Pit
Stuart Andrews thanked Council for the opportunity to speak. Mr. Andrews advised that
the matter of the new gravel pit is contentious as its proposed location is within 500m of
the Columbia Park subdivision. Mr. Andrews stated that he feels the addition of another
gravel pit in Revelstoke will be detrimental to public health. Mr. Andrews believes that
3km north of proposed site would be a more appropriate location with less impact on
Columbia Park residents. He explained that the approval process is quite easy for a small
gravel pit and he believes that if approved, the size of the pit would most likely be
increased quickly.
Mr. Andrews showed a short video on effects of silica dust. Mr. Andrews quoted Section
7.11.8 of Zoning Bylaw No. 1264 “nothing shall be done which is or will become an
annoyance or nuisance in the surrounding areas by reason of unsightliness, the emission
of odors, liquid effluents, dust, fumes, smoke, vibration, noise or glare”; he explained that
the proposed land is designated as future growth; and that the proposed pit is a
contradiction to the Integrated Community Sustainability Plan.
Mr. Andrews advised that after discussion with BC Assessment, he was notified that an
additional gravel pit may have a negative impact on property values in the area and that a
BC Assessment employee will be in Revelstoke in the next few weeks.

Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 2088.
Manager of Development Services explained that the Zoning Bylaw Text Amendment
Application is to include additional uses in Comprehensive Development Zone - 9. The
previous applicant envisioned four hotels and the new applicant has requested the
addition of grocery, pharmacy, health and wellness; with size and parking restrictions.
Mayor McKee thanked those present for coming out and called for comments from
individuals on the Speakers List, attached.
Applicant - Fraser Hall – 520 Alexander Street, Vancouver, BC
Mr. Hall stated that he is excited to bring this development proposal forward and that he
hopes it will improve the community. Mr. Hall advised that he had an opportunity to
speak with ~20 citizens regarding their views on the property. Hall Pacific needs to
incorporate the proposed uses to make the development feasible. Mr. Hall said he has no
interest in building something that is not wanted by citizens and hopes to work closely
with the community on the project.
Steven Hui – 307 Victoria Road
Mr. Hui stated that he represents the pharmacy world. Mr. Hui advised that he is progrowth provided that it is the right time and right place but is not in favor of this
particular proposal as it makes him fear for young entrepreneurs.
David Laferniere - #12 – 555 Victoria Road
Mr. Laferniere stated that upon graduation from Pharmacy school, he did what he thought
the community wanted by investing locally through the purchase of Peoples Drug Mart.
Mr. Laferniere is not in favor of the development as proposed and feels that we need to be
patient for the right opportunity to come up for the site.
Shaun Aquiline – Victoria Road
Mr. Aquiline stated that his perspective is based on being new to the community. He used
Cloverdale as an example of his view of the negative impact of strip malls outside of the
downtown core. Mr. Aquiline advised that he is not in favor of the zoning amendments as
they may open the door for many other things that may not be in the community’s best
interests.
Malcolm Bott – 1301 Pratico Road
Mr. Bott stated that he can appreciate the strip mall benefit but is not in favor of the
application. Mr. Bott questioned how the addition of grocery and pharmacy will make this
development pull people into the community and keep them coming back. He stated that
he doesn’t see as a good fit.
Rob Lamont- 1442 Illecillewaet Road
Mr. Lamont stated that he is not in favor of the proposed zoning amendment as it is. He
feels that hotel development will get people to stop and spend time in town, a pharmacy
will not. Mr. Lamont stated that he sees the applicants with an unfair advantage because
of highway traffic coming through.
Judy Goodman, Chamber of Commerce - 302 Victoria Road
Ms. Goodman advised that she was speaking on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce
members. Ms. Goodman stated that simple discussions over the past six weeks regarding
the addition of grocery/pharmacy soon became clouded with philosophical issues. Ms.
Goodman stated that from the 36 members that took the survey, the majority felt that the
current zoning should be maintained. Other members see the need to grow Revelstoke
Page |3
and increase commercial traffic. Ms. Goodman stated that members see advantages
through tax revenue, local jobs, trades and retail. She advised that through research with
Roger Brooks, communities are recommended to know what they want and go out and
recruit those businesses.
Brydon Roe – 1079 McCarty Crescent
Mr. Roe stated that the proposal was a great opportunity to get some action on the
highway. He sees the development as an opportunity to limit out of town shopping and a
way to increase business and commercial tax base.
Glen O'Reilly – 170 Track Street
Mr. O’Reilly stated that he is opposed to the Zoning Amendment Bylaw and feels that the
developer is not acting in best interest of community. Mr. O’Reilly does not want
developers dictating what our community looks like. He thinks a hotel is the best use for
the site. Mr. O’Reilly would like to sell Revelstoke to potential new businesses and not
duplicate ones that already exist.
Don Teuton – 523 Third Street West
Mr. Teuton advised that he supports the project/development and that there is still another
2.2 acre parcel that could be developed a hotel site. Mr. Teuton would like a kiosk and
visual promotion of downtown at the site and he believes tourists will come downtown
and shop.
Steven Cross – 1550 Praill Road
Mr. Cross advised that he is relatively new to Revelstoke and that he is not in favor of this
proposal as he has concerns for the downtown core. Mr. Cross would like to see something
more suited to creating a four season destination and a guarantee for an adequate number
of beds.
Virginia Thompson - 1070 Cashato Crescent
Ms. Thompson stated that she is not in favor of the proposal because it may affect the
'authenticity' and community heritage. Ms. Thompson advised that she would support a
development that is selective and done carefully. She stated that profits from large chains
don't stay local.
Robert Powadiak – 4785 Airport Way
Mr. Powadiak introduced himself as a developer who came to Revelstoke to work on the
resort. Mr. Powadiak is not in favor of this development and feels that hotels bring people
in and that’s what belongs on the site. He advised that he is not here to advocate for the
protection of downtown businesses from existing competition, more a matter of moving
forward with a vision. Mr. Powadiak urged Council not to gamble.
Peter Bernacki – 1967 Colbeck Road
Mr. Bernacki stated that he is in favor of the development. Mr. Bernacki advised that he
doesn’t believe that the development will affect downtown stores and that prospering
business will generate flow of more business.
Uri Naprastek – 1411 Douglas Street
Mr. Naprastek is new to Revelstoke and is not in favor of the proposed changes. Mr.
Naprastek doesn’t think that any business downtown could survive with 15-30% less
revenue.
Page |4
Micheal Brooks-Hill - 457 Cedar Street
Mr. Brooks-Hill stated that he is not in favor of the proposal in its current fashion. He
advised that he feels the only person that strip malls benefit is the developer and that strip
malls on highways kill downtowns.
Malcolm Bott – 1301 Pratico Road
Mr. Bott asked for clarity on retail size in the current CD-9 Zone.
D. Strachan, Manager of Development Services advised that developers could not consider
grocery without the amendment but could look at highway retail which is not regulated in
size and is open to uses. He explained that he thought it was appropriate to put size
restriction in when adding the proposed uses.
Judy Goodman, Chamber of Commerce – 302 Victoria Road
Ms. Goodman stated that a Business Retention and Expansion Summary indicated issues
in the local work force; facilities and equipment expansion opportunities; an isolated
business climate; and the Development Permit process.
Josee Zimanyi – 212 Mackenzie Avenue
Ms. Zimanyi stated that she is not in support of the proposed development but would love
to see development on the highway. Ms. Zimanyi shared concerns regarding staffing and
housing.
Randy Driediger – Victoria Road
Mr. Driediger questioned whether this is the right development? Mr. Driediger would like
to see more community input on this. 33/300 Chamber members completed the survey, 36
community members provided written comments; out of a population of 7000, it is not
enough.
Karen Powers – 205 Mackenzie Avenue
Ms. Powers shared concerns that the proposed development is completely cut off from the
rest of Revelstoke’s businesses.
Kevin Dorrius – 2009 Copeland Road
Mr. Dorrius stated that he has no argument for or against the development. He doesn’t
believe the perception that if this proposal is not successful that nobody will come back
and that would be the worst reason in the world to support it.
Glen O'Reilly
Mr. O’Reilly stated that he feels the general consensus is that this is not the right
development for this site. He does not want the developer to waste the opportunity to
develop this site on strip mall. Mr. O’Reilly would like to go out to look for hotel chains to
bring to our community.
Brett Renaud – 1966 Fairway Road
Mr. Renaud posed the question, Are we open or are we closed for business? He stated that
the community and Council should think about the future and increasing the tax base. If
we want to progress as a community, we need to work on allowing it to grow.
Page |5
David Laferniere
Mr. Laferniere stated that the proposed development would not prevent people from
going out of town and that he feels it is fool-hardy to think that it would draw people into
town.
Stephen Cross
Mr. Cross advised that he was taken by Mr. Hall’s comment that they don't want to build
something that the community doesn't want. He would like to see Council and the
developer get together to figure out how to develop something ‘unbelievable’ for the
community to take pride in.
Fraser Hall
Mr. Hall stated that he is impressed with the level of commentary from those in
attendance. He explained that the comments on the look and feel of the development are
irrelevant as they are just conceptual. Mr. Hall advised that he is not in the business of
hotel development but that he has reached out to a hotelier and introduced him to the
property owner. Mr. Hall responded to comments in relation to jobs and feels that adding
a 200 person work force will make the community grow and could cause wage rates to
increase due to supply and demand. He advised that he has been unable to find any
research confirming that highway development kills small communities; an investment of
20 million will increase the tax base and jobs. Mr. Hall explained that the development
needs an anchor tenant to make it feasible. Community members were not in favor of
developing a big box store such as Walmart so they came up with grocery and drug as an
option. Mr. Hall reiterated that he would love to be part of making the community better.
Uri Naprastek
Mr. Naprastek inquired whether the 200 potential jobs was a net gain or does it include
loss in downtown area?
Mr. Hall responded that without empirical evidence, it hard to determine.
Robert Powadiak
Mr. Powadiak stated his concern regarding employee housing.
Robert Bett – 146 Pearkes Drive
Mr. Bett stated that he is not in favor of the proposed zoning changes.
David Laferniere
Mr. Laferniere appreciates there is no intent to take away traffic or business away from
downtown but if it does, the downtown merchants will suffer.
Peter Bernacki
Mr. Bernacki stated that he believes the proposed development will benefit both the City
and the developer, and will be good.
Mayor McKee called for comments from the Public for a first time.
