Re:

Revelstoke Boundary Extension Proposal

This memorandum serves as the Ministry of Community, Sport, and Cultural Development's
(Ministry) Administrative Report for the boundary extension proposal submitted by the City of
Revelstoke dated October 8, 2014.
Description of Proposed Boundary

This proposal is to support a petition from the City of Revelstoke to include the subject property
described below within the municipal boundary of the City of Revelstoke. The request has
originated from the current property owners, David Evans and Shelley Sharpe of Whistler, BC.
The subject property is currently located within Electoral Area B of the Columbia Shuswap
Regional District and is zoned currently zoned Rural and Resource (RSC).
The legal description of the subject property is:
LOT 1, SECTION12 TOWNSHIP 23 RANGE2 WEST OF THE 6TH
MERIDIANKOOTENAY DISTRICT
PLAN11177 (PID# 012-858-889)

Rationale
The current property owners, David Evans and Shelley Sharpe, have indicated they are seeking
the annexation of the subject property in order to connect the property with City of Revelstoke
services for construction of a 10,00015,000 sq ft commercial hotel lodge. Services would be
obtained through an extension of existing services at Camozzi Road, which is currently located
within the municipal boundary of the City of Revelstoke. If required, any future rezoning of the
property would come under the purview of the City of Revelstoke after the extension is finalized.

Benefits accrue to the municipality from potential increases in tax revenues from subject lands.
There are no additional road maintenance costs resulting from this proposal.
Compliance With Technical Criteria
Contiguity The subject property is adjacent to the existing City of Revelstoke municipal
boundary and thus satisfies the requirement for Contiguity with the current boundary.

Stakeholder Groups There are no service providers to consult, outside of the Columbia Shuswap
Regional District, and these parcels are adjacent to, but not within the Agricultural Land Reserve

The Province prefers at least one attempt to fo||owupwith potentially affected Nations that do

approval from the municipal electorate on the proposed boundary extension.

There are no impacts to the highway system at this time.

lf the boundary extension is approved and the developers decide to move forward with

MOTI road retention:

- The portion

of Camozzi Road should remain under the MOTls jurisdiction until such time
there is another proposed boundary amendment. At that time, transfer of this section of
road should be considered.

Timing and Next Steps

There is one administrative step remaining for the boundary extension to proceed:
1) Send notification letter to each First Nation that provides an update on progress and
notifies them of the pending process to seek approval from the municipal electorate on
the proposed boundary extension.

There are two statutory

requirements

remaining for the boundary extension to proceed:

1) Public notice of the proposed extension published once in BCGazette (as per 5. 20(3)(b) of
Local Government Act).
2) Obtain approval of the electors of the municipality in relation to the proposed extension
(as per s. 20(3)(c) of Local Government Act).

The approval of the municipal electorate is a pre~condition of the municipal council request for
the boundary change. Approval of the electors may be obtained by conducting a referendum
under Part 4 [Assent Voting] of the Local Government Act or by alternate approval process under
section 86 [Alternative approval process] of the Community Charter.

Under either process, the public notice should include the rationale for the boundary extension
and a map to accurately describe it. Section 84 [Approval of the electors] of the Community
Charter requires that public notice be printed once in the BCGazette and twice in a local
publication. Publication in the BCGazette as part of the elector approval process also satisfies
statutory notice reguirements in s. 20[3[[b[ of the Local Government Act.

Greetings:
Further to the May 23, 2014 letter from Rob Toor, Corporate Council for Northland Properties
Corporation, the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations (F LNRO) Mountain
Resorts Branch (MRB) affirms that the Resort Master Plan and its corresponding legal document, the
Master Development Agreement (MDA) between the Province of British Columbia and Mt. MacKenzie
Resort Limited (later Revelstoke Mountain Resort) were approved following comprehensive Provincial
review of input from various interest holders, including local governments.
The Master Plan review contemplated local government landuseobjectives of the time and sought to
align the proposed development and amenities to them. The modification of planning objectives adjacent
to Revelstoke Mountain Resort (RMR) has the potential to limit congruence between the MDA and local
plans such as the OCP, which were developed based on the approved Master Plan. This incongruence is
not only problematic for the resort, but also for the Province and for the municipality, should parasitic
competition reduce the resorts viability.
MRB agrees, as Northland contends, that RMR would be negatively impacted in the event that additional
servicing capacity was not available to support future development/expansion when required by RMR.
Further, MRB acknowledges the notion that adjacent developments avoiding frontendinfrastructural
costs would be benefrtting at the expense of RMR, particularly if the product or service offerings were in
direct competition with those available at the resort. As per the FLNRO All Seasons Resort Policy, the
ability to earn bed units is tied to the creation of uphill and downhill skier capacity through the
establishment of costly infrastructure. The ability of a third-party developer to construct commercial
accommodation immediately adjacent to the resort, without having been made to develop costly
infrastructure,most certainly provides an unfair competitive advantage.

Lastly, MRB does not recognize a lack of commercial accommodation capacity within RMR base area
lands, and would question the justification of adding capacity outside of the development area where it
was originally not contemplated. Instead, we would encourage the exploration of partnership
opportunities for resort investment within the Development Area boundary and consistent with the
approved Resort Master Plan.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Dear Sirs/Mesdames:

Re:

Request for Municipal Boundary Extension for Annexation of a property into the
City of Revelstoke

We have been advised that David Evans and Shelley Sharpe, owners on an l8acre
property
adjacent to the base of Revelstoke Mountain Resort (the
and legally described as Lot
1, Plan lll77, Section 12, Township 23, Range 2, West of the 6 Meridian, Kootenay District
(the Property) are requesting an extension of the City of Revelstoke (the City) municipal
boundary in order to annex the Property into the City in order to service the Property with City
services for construction of a 10,000
15,000 square foot commercial hotel lodge (the
Development). Given the nature of the Development and the proposed location, we are
writing to you to express our strong objections to the Development moving forward as it
will
directly and negatively impact our interests.

Resort?

As per Section 6.3 of the Citys Council Report, if the Property is armexed into the City,
the
services would be obtained through an extension of the existing services locatedwithin
Camozzi
Road (the Services). If the City grants an extension of the Services for the Development,
the
Resort will expect a reimbursementfor the time and funds spent on such infrastructure
costs of
suchServices. The Services were constructed to service the Resorts current and ?iture
developmentneeds. If the Development and/or developers are able to connect to the Services,
this may affect the Resorts ?xturedeve1opmentsusage of these Services.

Furthermore,annexation ?ies against the face and spirit of the Master Development Agreement
betweenHer Majesty the Queenin Right of the Province of British Columbia and Mt. Mackenzie
Resort Ltd. dated March 17, 2005 (the MDA). The MDA had the followingrequirements
1. that the Resort base lands be within the City limits and tie into the municipal systems;
and
'

2. The Resort must inject additional funds in the development of the Resort lands in order
to
earn additional bed units.

The MDA never contemplated that the City would use the Services and the infrastructure
such as
water, sewer and septic services, roads, ski trails, chair lifts, platfonns, tower poles,
footings,
lines, cables, gondolas, and any other facilities(together, the Infrastructnre) to further
expand
its boundariesto allow a parasitic developmentto bene?t from all the works,
Infrastructure,and
the approximate $200 million invested at the Resort, wi?iout such development
incurring the
costs of the In?astructure. Allowing such developments will dampen
Inlrastructuregrowth at the
Resort and directly and negatively affect the interestsof the Resort.
This Development would set the Resort back for many years, as any potential developer
would
not have to pay for such In?astructure costs the Resort incurred,realizing
in a lower cost of entry
for any potential development. In addition, the Resort would see a
dramatic decrease in
investors purchasing at the Resort, as investors could purchase from competition with
no pre
costs. This would cause an unfair advantage for such parasitic developments.
Infrastructure
This was not contemplated when the MDA and the Resort was planned.

Furthermore,there is an abundanceof land available within the City limits, for anyone wishing
to build a hotel, and therefore, there is no reason to annex this
property for this Development. In
addition there are ample lands available for such a development at the base of
the Resort, and
within the MDA and City limits; the Resort is more than happy to discuss these
opportunities
with any developer.
We reiterate, the Resort is strongly opposed to the City or the Regional
District allowing
the annexation of the Property into the City; and/or properties near
the Resort for any
rezoning to increase density.

between Her Majesty the Queenin Right of the Province of British Columbia and Mt. Mackenzie
Resort Ltd. dated March 17, 2005 (the MDA). The MDA had the following requirements
1. that the Resort base lands be within the City limits and tie into the municipal systems;
and
2. The Resort must inject additional ?uids in the development of the Resort lands in order to
earn additionalbed units.

The MDA never contemplated that the City would use the Services and the infrastructure such as
water, sewer and septic services, roads, ski trails, chair lifts, platforms, tower poles, footings,
lines, cables, gondolas, and any other facilities(together, the Infrastructure) to further expand
its boundaries to allow a parasitic development to bene?t from all the works, Infrastructure, and
the approximate $200 million invested at the Resort, without such development incurring the
costs of the Infrastructure. Allowing such developmentswill dampen Infrastructuregrowth at the
Resort and directly and negatively affect the interests of the Resort.

&')i&iiS;5i""3}i6?iEi
This Development would set the Resort
not have to pay for such Infrastructure costs the Resort incurred, realizing in a tower cost of entry
for any potential development. In addition, the Resort would see a dramatic decrease in
investorspurchasing at the Resort, as investors could purchase iiom competition with no pre
Infrastructure costs. This would cause an unfair advantage for such parasitic developments.
This was not contemplatedwhen the MDA and the Resort was planned.
As mentioned in both our and the Provinces letters, there is an abundance of land available
within the City limits, for anyone wishing to build a hotel, andtherefore, there is no reason to
annex this property for this Development. In addition there are ample lands available for such a
development at the base of the Resort, and within the MDA and City limits; the Resort is more
than happy to discuss these opportunities
with any developer.
We are strongly opposed to the City or the Regional District allowing the annexation of the
Property into the City; and/or properties near the Resort for any rezoning to increase
density.
