2740 Tintern Road

Mike Jensen, acting for owners Ruth Louise Brekke and Howard Gordon Brekke, obtained Board approval of Development Variance Permit No. PL2026-039 at 2740 Tintern Road, reducing the accessory building setback from 2.0 m to 1.58 m. Director Craig opposed the motion; the vote carried. No public correspondence was received and no members of the public spoke at the hearing. The application involved no measurable units, floor area, or form beyond the setback reduction — a minor adjustment for an accessory structure on an existing lot. Director Craig’s dissent was not explained in the record.

A rezoning application for 2740 Tintern Road in the Regional District of Nanaimo, BC, submitted by applicant Mike Jensen, was considered by the Board on May 7, 2026. The Board approved the application, with Director Craig opposed.
