UNFINISHED BUSINESS
1. Text Amendment: Northeast False Creek Official Development Plan Amendment Video Clip of this Item
A Public Hearing was convened on February 17, 2011, and reconvened on seven other occasions, ending on April 10, 2011.
Council has concluded the public hearings and approved in principle the following related items from the above-noted Public Hearing:
• Rezoning: 777 Pacific Boulevard (Hotel/Entertainment/Casino Complex)
• Rezoning: 10 Terry Fox Way (Concord Area 5b East)
In addition to the above, on April 19, 2011, Council passed the following motion in regard to the False Creek North ODP amendments, which enable the Concord Area 5b East rezoning:
THAT the application to amend the False Creek North Official Development Plan, By-law No. 6650, generally as presented in Appendix B of the Policy Report dated January 10, 2011, entitled “Amendments to the False Creek North Official Development Plan”, be referred back to staff pending the receipt of information from BC Pavilion Corporation in regard to their plans for proceeding with the application for 777 Pacific Boulevard, in light of Council’s earlier decision on that application.
Staff advise that BC Pavilion Corporation is now ready to proceed with enactment of the by-law for the project at 777 Pacific Boulevard, which allows for the relocation but not expansion of the Edgewater Casino on site. This enables Concord Pacific to proceed with enactment of the By-law for their application at 10 Terry Fox Way (Concord Area 5B East).
The following is therefore put forward for consideration by Council:
THAT the application to amend the False Creek North Official Development Plan, By-law No. 6650, generally as presented in Appendix B of the Policy Report dated January 10, 2011, entitled “Amendments to the False Creek North Official Development Plan”, be approved;
FURTHER THAT the Director of Legal Services be instructed to bring forward the amending by-law, generally in accordance with Appendix B.
Accordingly, the following materials are resubmitted (limited distribution to Council members):
• Policy Report dated January 10, 2011, entitled “Amendments to the False Creek North Official Development Plan” (Draft By-law put forward in Appendix B to be considered)
• Summary and Recommendation from the Public Hearing of February 17, 2011
• Memorandum dated February 21, 2011, from the Director of Planning
