Land Use Considerations 1. Current Land Use: Vacant/AF Zone (Not suitable for agriculture or forestry) 2. Surrounding Land Uses: North: M2-General Industrial & M5 – Heavy Industrial (Westbin, Abandoned sawmill site, CN Rail tracks) East: M7 – Concrete & Asphalt (Rolling Mix, Pittman Asphalt, Westbin) South: AG – Greenbelt/ AF - Agriculture & Forestry (Steep, undevelopable Cranbrook Hill escarpment to remain) West: M7 – Concrete & Asphalt (Columbia Bitulithic) 3. Residents of Cranbrook Hill, Miworth & Nechako Bench – have concerns regarding noise, heavy industrial sprawl, aesthetics, and traffic In response, CIF and Timber West have proposed a low impact development with low noise, very low traffic volumes, limited zoned area & a fully landscaped berm for aesthetics and noise attenuation

Land Use Considerations ..... Cont'd 4. Environmental Impacts – Groundwater protection area CIF and Timber West jobsites are proposing to move further away from Fish Trap Island (the City’s well) 5. Proximity to CIF and Timber West’s existing site ( <100 m) Allows opportunity to expand long term family businesses Moving just down the road!
