It all started with the George Hotel and Condo’s development application… On May 1^st, 2013, the Director of Planning sent a letter to Klaus Fuerniss Enterprises Inc. (the developer),  rejecting the George Hotel and Condo’s development application. The planner thereby created a formal record of the many reasons “The George” does not comply with the Town of Gibsons Official Community Plan (OCP).

(Oops! A legal record, how inconvenient. How to fix it?)

Gibsons Council has given second reading to the latest draft of the revised Official Community Plan (OCP) and scheduled a public hearing for March 10, 2015, at 7 p.m. at the Gibsons Legion.

Mayor Wayne Rowe has published a rebuttal of the article "Gibsons could lose marina to The George" on his website.

Hundreds of documents obtained through a Freedom of Information request have uncovered new facts about the George project in Gibsons.
