Bylaw No. 2654 is cited as “Regional District of East Kootenay – SweetWater Zoning and Floodplain Management Bylaw No. 2127, 2009 – Amendment Bylaw No. 5, 2015 (Miscellaneous / RDEK)” and will correct an error resulting from the adoption of the RDEK Campground Bylaw in 2013. The Campground Bylaw permits cottages within campgrounds only. Prior to the adoption of the Campground Bylaw, the SweetWater Zoning & Floodplain Management Bylaw defined cottages as a single family dwelling smaller than 93 m2 with no basement and permitted this use in the R-1(C), small lot zone. The permitted use of cottage in the R-1(C) zone is now incorrect as a cottage is only permitted in a campground.
To correct this error, the use has been changed from cottage to single family dwelling and the provisions of a single family dwelling being smaller than 93 m2 with no basement were inserted into the R-1(C), small lot zone. This housekeeping amendment does not change any use within the R-1(C), small lot zone.
