Previous posts about Bylaw 264 and the dirty tricks pulled to ensure it never would never be implemented. The Ministry worried about what KIP objected to; the withholding of the legal opinion for months by the UBID admin and trustees and only advising Trustee Kaljur the day they voted to kill the bylaw in Oct. https://allthingsunionbay.com/?s=Bylaw+264

Strata timeshare – excerpt from FOI MOE-2020-00764

This email is a continuation of this post: https://allthingsunionbay.com/2021/07/14/more-proof-of-bullshit-spewed-by-kensington-island-properties-aka-union-bay-estates/

So does the infrastructure being installed that is not subject to CVRD approval meet the MMCD Standards? What’s the difference between the requirements/approval from CVRD to provincial?

This is a strata subdivision and most infrastructure will be privately owned and not subject to CVRD approval (rather, the provincial subdivision approving officer will just need to be satisfied that water and sewer are provided)

Then the individual sent this email:

This is the body of the email below with the size of the font increased so you can read it:

The CVRD continues to work closely with Union Bay Estates and their advisors to ensure that the infrastructure installed meets the requirements of the master development agreement. Regarding the water system the following has been provided/reviewed/ and/or is under design:

CDA 2 – approx. 40 lot subdivision north of Hart Creek.

·         This is a strata subdivision and most infrastructure will be privately owned and not subject to CVRD approval (rather, the provincial subdivision approving officer will just need to be satisfied that water and sewer are provided)

·         As a courtesy only, CVRD has reviewed the proposed strata water system and provided comments to Union Bay Estates’ engineering team relative to the requirements of the master development agreement

·         The CDA 2 strata water system has been installed – prior to issuing any building permits within that strata we will need to see confirmation from the Ministry of Health that the water system meets the Ministry’s requirements

·         The only public portion of the CDA 2 water system is that portion which will connect the strata system to the CVRD’s Union Bay water system. This is essentially two highway crossings along with valves and meters. Drawings for this portion of the system are being finalized by UBE and will be submitted to CVRD for review and approval. Installation of this portion of the system will occur only after CVRD approval.

·         All fire hydrants within CDA 2 will utilize potable water (this is a provincial requirement)

·         There is no reclaimed (purple pipe) water system within CDA 2

·         The MDA does not require a reclaimed water system

CDA 3 – discovery centre

·         The subdivision of CDA 3 for the discovery centre (which is proposed to include a sales centre) is also a strata subdivision and infrastructure will be privately owned and therefore not subject to CVRD approval

·         No infrastructure has been installed in this area

·         The CVRD understands that UBE plans to utilize reclaimed water within a purple pipe system to irrigate boulevards within this part of the strata development – those pipes will be owned by the strata

Regarding your specific questions below:

1.      As the CDA 2 strata water system will be privately owned. CVRD approval is not required. The CVRD will approve the connection of the strata system to the CVRDs Union Bay water system prior to the installation of that infrastructure.

2.      The fire distribution system will use potable water. The CVRD understands that some of the irrigation system (boulevards) may use reclaimed water. The MDA does not require the use of reclaimed water.  

Can they make the font any smaller and paler?
