Schinidt’s BAB was origi:
nally singled out by council
and ordered to “cease and
desist” because BRBs are
currently not permitted in
West Vancouver,

The conflsion stems from
an ambiguous bylaw that tails
to acknowledge B&Bs but
permits boarders and lodgers
asa type of home-based bust-
ness,

In order to be even-hand-
ed, council voted to suspend
action against The Paling
until a report studying all
existing B&Bs is received
from the Advisory Planning
Commission,

After the
received, councillors
consider three options:

@ continue the prohibi-
tion on B&Rs and remove
any existing ambiguities
within the zoning bylaw;

B permit B&Bs as an out-
right use within single-family
residential zones and develop
regulations;

@ require rezoning for
cach B&B either as a new
zone or by adding B&Bs as a

properties within existing
residential zones.

be followed, councillors
Victor Durman and Russ

motion to table the matter

pleased,

“Tthink it’s great news

And we expect them ta do
the right thing and make
