Lake Errock Gravel Pit Redevelopment

Further to our last e-newsletter in December, we have added new documents to the Have Your Say site. Staff has also drafted a report that summarizes comments and identifies key issues for the applicant to address.

Documents Added

• The applicant’s response to your initial comments and questions. Check the Developer Documents folder for “Responses to Comments on FVRD Harrison Rise Project Website – dated February 16, 2023”.
• The summary of the public information meeting, which is in the FVRD Documents folder titled "2022 11 23 Lake Errock Public Information Comment”.
• Your written comments which are available in the FVRD Documents folder titled “Initial Public Comments November 23, 2022-January 13, 2023”.

Next Steps

The Electoral Area Services Committee will review the FVRD staff report on March 9, 2023. The staff report:

• Summarizes the feedback received following the November 23, 2023 FVRD Public Information Meeting
• Identifies information gaps and actions for the developer to consider to help address these gaps (including capacity funding)
• Seeks direction from the FVRD Board on the next steps and actions to advance the proposal to the FVRD Board for First Reading

The staff report will then be submitted to the FVRD Board for consideration and direction is expected on March 23, 2023.
