Having declared a conflict of interest, Deputy Mayor Myles did not participate in the meeting at this time.

It was noted that a dwelling, septic system and well are proposed on an existing parcel legally known as Plan D11 Part of Unit 13 (Eastnor Twp), just north of the Hamlet of Stokes Bay. The lands are situated along a point with frontage on Walter Charman Drive. The proposed amendment is to rezone a portion of the land from Environmental Hazard to Resort Residential ‘R2’ to facilitate construction of the dwelling.
It was noted that a Coastal Engineering Analysis (CEA) was completed in support of the application. The CEA noted that there is a portion of the land above the 100-year flood elevation that is suitable for development. The CEA also concluded that the development will not be adversely impacted by wave uprush. The CEA notes that portions of the dwelling will be within the 15 metres of the 100 year flood elevation and will need to incorporate design measures such as positioning of window and door openings in accordance with the Municipality’s Zoning Bylaw.
It was noted that a Environmental Impact Study was undertaken to determine the impacts of the proposed development on the adjacent Provincially Significant Wetland and other natural heritage features. The Grey Sauble Conservation Authority reviewed the application and requested additional information with respect to potential natural heritage impacts. The environmental consultant, Roots Environmental, provided supplemental information to address GSCA concerns. GSCA has reviewed the supplemental environmental information and has advised that they have no outstanding environmental concerns.
It was noted that an Archaeological Assessment was completed in support of the application by P. Julig Surveys.
Mayor McIver opened the meeting to questions from members of Council at this time.
Councillor Myles inquired concerning the submission of comments from SON regarding the Archeological Assessment.

He further noted that the applicants had not been contacted by SON to date and that SON had been circulated multiple times through the consultation process with this application.
It was noted that P. Julig Surveys did not recommend any further Archeological surveys.
Discussion ensued regarding the development of a streamlined consultation process between Bruce County Planning and SON concerning the submission of comments on Zoning By-law applications.

Karen Phillips inquired regarding the number of shoreline development applications submitted to the Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula to date.
Councillor Myles stated that several Zoning By-law Amendments had been reviewed over this term of Council regarding shoreline development.
It was noted that the Bruce County Planning Department is working with Saugeen Ojibway Nation (SON) and the Grey Sauble Conservation Authority (GSCA) regarding consultations on shoreline development applications.
Karen Phillips inquired regarding the absence of a tree retention by-law and a fill by-law as it relates to the site development of Plan D Part of Unit 13 Eastnor Township.
Discussion ensued regarding the site plan contained within the Zoning By-law Amendment application.
Daniel Kingsbury noted that no fill will be required for the development of Plan D Part of Unit 13 Eastnor Township.
It was noted that a Site Plan Control Agreement is not required for this application as the provisions contained within an R2 Zone will address any recommendations contained within the Environmental Impact Study, Coastal Impact Assessment or Archaeological Assessment.

Presentation
Karla Trudgen, Attainable Housing Task Force
Re: Attainable Housing Report
Mayor McIver welcomed Karla Trudgen to the September 12, 2022 Council Meeting.
Karla Trudgen noted that some alterations had been made to the slideshow presentation prior to the September 12, 2022 meeting. The following was noted from the presentation;
· The objective of this project is to create an Attainable Housing Strategy that moves forward the objectives of the recent work MNBP has done on housing, while identifying and quantifying the strategies that can be pursued to specifically target creation of new and more “attainable” housing.
· This study uses census profile data from Statistics Canada, housing data from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s Housing Information Portal, and information from the municipality. In addition, the approach to this study included a series of engagement activities to gain information from employers, employees, residents, and key stakeholders.
· Attainable Housing refers to housing that is adequate in condition, appropriate in size, affordable, accessible to services, and available.
· It was noted that the Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula is projected to grow by 1,000 permanent residents and 2,900 seasonal residents between 2021 and 2046. This represents a growth of +23.9% overall and approximately 44 new permanent residents per year. However, current trends have tracked lower than projected growth.
· The average gross household income in Northern Bruce Peninsula for 2016 was $71,494, the lowest of all municipalities in Bruce County. It was noted that this amount could be inflated by seasonal residents.
· It was noted that 3 open houses were held via video conference between April 26 -28, 2022 and that community feedback was received through online and hardcopy surveys.
· Two Key Challenges were identified regarding attainable housing within the Municipality
o Seasonal resident housing demand
-Seasonal residents accounted for 59% of households in 2016 and this proportion is expected to remain constant to 2046. Additionally, for every local household looking for housing, there are almost two households that are looking for a vacation property or a home to retire to.
o Development capacity may not align with growth targets
-The Plan the Bruce Interim Report suggests that NBP would have growth in permanent resident households of 670 housing units and approximately 1000 seasonal households, for a total growth in housing of 1670 units over the next 25 years. This would require construction of approximately 70 new units in NBP every year between 2022 and 2046.
· The Attainable Housing Strategy contains an action plan to improve attainable housing in Northern Bruce Peninsula.
· It was noted that the action plan and recommendations contained within the Attainable Housing Strategy will be reviewed by Council and staff.
Discussion ensued regarding Municipal Case Studies concerning actions taken to address attainable housing within municipalities across Canada.
Councillor Golden noted that the Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula is composed of a high seasonal population and that Municipal efforts to address attainable housing must reflect this composition to better support permanent residents.
It was noted that the area of study within the Attainable Housing Strategy was the solely Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula.
Mayor McIver noted that addressing the housing issue within the Municipality will require collaboration from several entities, including Bruce County.
Discussion ensued regarding the Comprehensive Zoning By-law Amendments as it relates to the potential of secondary dwelling units to be used as long-term rentals.
Councillor Golden noted that a public house should be held in the Spring of 2023 to facilitate public education on the provisions associated with zoning districts.
Karla Trudgen noted that the Attainable Housing Task Force was supportive of the provisions contained within the Comprehensive Zoning By-law Amendments as they pertained to secondary dwelling units being utilized as long-term rentals.
Discussion ensued regarding the submission of a housing initiative to the Municipality for a Community Grant.
Mayor McIver inquired regarding the status of the Long-term Landlord Housing Initiative.
Karla Trudgen noted that applications for the Long-term Landlord Housing Initiative close on Wednesday, September 14, 2022. She further noted that the initiative was composed of grants of up to $25,000 which could be distributed to 4 projects.
Discussion ensued regarding incentives to long-term renting within the Municipality.
