8929 17 Road—Electoral Area ‘C’ – Development Variance permit Application to increase allowed lot coverage for construction of an aquaculture facility. Approved

Gary and Lorna Klassen of Osoyoos requesting that RDOS vary the allowable parcel coverage from 3 to 6% and this has been recommended by staff.

The Klassens state they wish to use the land near the river at 8929 Road 17 for a fish rearing facility which is an allowable use on ALR property. The property is about 4 miles south of Oliver. It is treed and has a house on it. The owners wish to use the existing house for farm use and desire to build a new home in the south west corner of the property. This will take some form of exemption from flood plain provisions.

The exemption on flood plain was not granted: 8929 Road 17—Electoral Area ‘C’ – Floodplain Exemption Application to vary floodplain regulations for the flood construction level of a habitable structure from 8.3.2 of Rural Oliver Zoning bylaw 2453, 2008. Defeated
