The special meeting is approved.

This is the exact wording owners signed and will vote on. The bylaw numbers below follow the updated bylaw schedule proposed for the August meeting. If that schedule is not adopted, the same changes apply to the current bylaws (pets under Bylaws 3(3) to 3(6), barbecues under Bylaw 3(7)), and the strata's lawyer conforms the numbering without changing the substance.

Resolution 1 · Resident pets, visiting pets and temporary care

BE IT RESOLVED by a 3/4 vote that The Owners, Strata Plan KAS 1686 amend the bylaws as follows:

1. Bylaw 4(1) is amended by adding the following paragraph:(c) either one dog that does not exceed 14 inches (35.5 centimetres) in height at the shoulder when fully grown, or one domestic cat.

2. Bylaw 4(2) is deleted and replaced with the following:(2) A resident may permit a visitor to bring one dog or one cat into the resident's strata lot, and may care for one dog or one cat belonging to another person for up to 14 consecutive days in any 60 day period. A dog under this subsection is subject to the same height limit as Bylaw 4(1)(c). An animal present under this subsection is subject to Bylaws 4(3) through 4(9) and to Bylaw 4(11), must be registered under Bylaw 4(10) if it remains more than 7 consecutive days, and remains the responsibility of the resident as if it were the resident's own animal.

3. Bylaw 4 is amended by adding the following subsections:(10) Before bringing a dog or cat onto the property, the resident must register it with the strata corporation by providing the resident's name and strata lot number, the animal's name, species, age and physical description, a current Regional District of Central Okanagan licence number in the case of a dog, written confirmation from a veterinarian of the dog's height at the shoulder or, for a dog not yet fully grown, its expected adult height, and an emergency caregiver contact. Registration is a matter of providing the information listed above rather than council approval.(11) On common property, limited common property or land that is a common asset, a dog must be on a fixed leash no longer than 2 metres and under the immediate control of a competent person, and a cat must be in a secure carrier. A resident animal may pass through common property only for direct entry and exit, and must not be left unattended or tethered on common property, a balcony or a patio.(12) Bylaw 4 does not apply to the extent that it conflicts with the Strata Property Act, the Guide Dog and Service Dog Act, the Human Rights Code or any other enactment. Council must consider any disability related accommodation request individually and confidentially, to the point of undue hardship.

4. Bylaws 4(3) through 4(9) are unchanged. The existing exotic animal prohibition and the control, cleanup, liability, nuisance, noise and removal provisions continue to apply in full.

5. The strata council shall register this amendment in the Land Title Office. Any two members of council may execute the documents required to register it.

Resolution 2 · Exterior cooking

BE IT RESOLVED by a 3/4 vote that The Owners, Strata Plan KAS 1686 amend the bylaws by deleting Bylaw 3(10) and replacing it with the following:

(10)(a) A resident may use one CSA approved electric barbecue on a balcony, patio or area of limited common property designated for the exclusive use of that strata lot, provided the use is permitted by law and by the strata corporation's insurance policy.(b) The appliance must be used outdoors in a well ventilated location, on a stable non combustible surface, and in accordance with all manufacturer clearances from walls, windows, doors, overhangs and combustible material.(c) The appliance must be kept clean and in good repair, must not be left unattended while energised or hot, and a suitable fire extinguisher must be immediately accessible.(d) Gas, propane, charcoal, wood and pellet appliances, deep fryers, fire tables and other open flame devices remain prohibited unless owners later approve a bylaw expressly permitting them.(e) Council may suspend exterior cooking during a fire ban, emergency, unsafe condition or material change in the strata corporation's insurance, and may make reasonable rules for safe use consistent with this bylaw.(f) This bylaw does not prevent a function approved by council on the main front deck.(g) A resident is responsible for the strata corporation's reasonable actual costs arising from a proven contravention, subject to the Strata Property Act.

The strata council shall register this amendment in the Land Title Office. Any two members of council may execute the documents required to register it.
