Revelstoke meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Revelstoke Council to weigh $2.4M waste cart contract; minutes from three recent meetings not yet published

Revelstoke City Council is scheduled to vote Oct. 27 on a $2,403,080.77 contract with Toter Manufacturing for refuse and organics carts — the largest dollar figure appearing on the town's recent and upcoming agendas. No minutes have been published for the three meetings held in the past two weeks, so none of the outcomes from those sessions are confirmed in the records reviewed here. The items below are drawn from agendas, and no vote tallies were included in the material provided.

Council, Oct. 27: carts, zoning and permits

The Oct. 27 council agenda lists a contract award to Toter Manufacturing for $2,403,080.77 for refuse and organics carts. The same agenda lists Development and Heritage Alteration Permits for a four-unit dwelling at 200 Third Street East, and adoption of Permissive Tax Exemption Bylaw No. 2452 and Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 2447.

Also on that agenda: a grant application to Columbia Basin Trust for up to $449,934.00 for mobile vehicle barriers, and renewal of a five-year joint use agreement with The Board of Education of School District No. 19.

Special Council, Oct. 13: pickleball facility contract

A special council meeting on Oct. 13 carried a proposed contract award to Jake-Jay Construction for a six-court pickleball facility at Centennial Park for $466,651.50 plus taxes. The agenda also listed first, second and third readings of the 2027 Permissive Tax Exemption Bylaw No. 2452 — the same bylaw listed for adoption on Oct. 27.

Because minutes from Oct. 13 have not been published, whether council awarded the contract or advanced the bylaw is not established by the available record.

Public Art Committee, Oct. 19

The Public Art Committee agenda listed approval of artwork by Evie Monro for display at City Hall, and a recommendation to Council of a Request for Proposal for public art at the community centre. The agenda also listed discussion of the 2026 Art Alleries Project, an update on the mural project for 206 MacKenzie Avenue (Fable Books), and discussion of the Columbia River Basin Public Art Program.

Minutes from this meeting have not been published.

Advisory Planning Commission, Oct. 20

The Advisory Planning Commission agenda listed an update on the Bill 16 Density Bonusing Project and review of Draft Bylaw No. 2438, which concerns a merger of the Advisory Planning Commission and the Heritage Advisory Commission. The agenda also listed comments supporting OCP-2026-1 and ZON-2026-2 in their current form, and adoption of 2027 meeting dates.

Minutes from this meeting have not been published, so the commission's final comments and any decisions on meeting dates are not confirmed here.

Council weighs golf course clubhouse, advisory commission merger

Revelstoke council held three meetings in the past two weeks, but minutes have not yet been published, so no decisions are confirmed. The most consequential item on the agenda was a public hearing and proposed bylaw changes to allow a clubhouse and golf maintenance facility at the Cabot Golf Course par 3 course.

Golf course clubhouse and zoning

At the Aug. 11 regular council meeting, council was scheduled to hold a public hearing and consider second and third reading and adoption of two bylaws: OCP Amendment Bylaw No. 2444 and Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 2445, both for 1795 Nichol Road. The applicant is Northland Properties Corporation. The changes would alter the land use designation and zoning to permit a clubhouse and golf maintenance facility for the Cabot Golf Course par 3 course.

The same meeting also included adoption of Council Procedure Amendment Bylaw No. 2446 and first, second, and third reading of Development Cost Charges Amendment Bylaw No. 2448. Council also considered a staff request to endorse extended service hours for the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 46 liquor license (LIQ2026-10), and received correspondence regarding 4th Street bike lanes and an Okanagan Regional Library bike charging station.

Closed session on land and services

A special council meeting on Aug. 13 was largely procedural. Council moved into an in-camera (closed) session under sections 90.1(e), 90.1(k), and 90.2(b)(i) of the Community Charter. The closed session covered potential land acquisition, disposition, or expropriation that could harm municipal interests if discussed publicly, as well as preliminary negotiations for a proposed municipal service and confidential information relating to negotiations with provincial or federal government and a third party. After the closed session, council was to consider any business items to report publicly and then terminate the meeting.

Committee of the Whole

Also on Aug. 13, the Committee of the Whole discussed several staff reports. These included a proposal to merge the Advisory Planning Commission and Heritage Advisory Commission, a Crisis Communications Plan, and a project management plan for a multipurpose facility (Phase III). The committee also considered a proposed memorandum of understanding with the Revelstoke Recreation Facilities Legacy Society and management of the budget for the existing arena facility.

All three meetings are listed as agenda only, with minutes not yet published. No vote tallies or dollar amounts were available in the provided data.
