Section 3: Cottage Lot Selection Meeting

3.1 For All Applicants

Applicants should make a reasonable on-site examination of lot(s) prior to attending the lot selection meeting. Applicants will be allowed to only select ONE (1) lot during the process. Once an applicant makes a selection, that selection will be final and no changes will be accepted.

The lot selection meetings will take place on the Lot Selection Meeting Date and Location noted in the published COTTAGE LOT DRAW DATES document.

Lot selection meetings require that the applicant (or authorized representative) be present to select a lot. The applicant (or authorized representative) must present proof of identity and eligibility (valid photo or other identification that identifies date of birth, Manitoba address, and signature) at the lot selection meeting. If a representative will be attending on your behalf, see Section 3.2.

3.2 Representatives Selecting on Behalf of the Applicant

of the applicant (please use the attached Authorization Form for Delegation of Authority found in this Information Package).

applicant’s valid identification (that identifies his/her date of birth, Manitoba address, and signature).

3.3 Lot Selection

The lot selection order will be determined at the Draw. Prior to, or at the lot selection meeting, if applicants’ desired lots are no longer available when it is their turn to select a lot, they may withdraw from the selection process.

The lot selection meeting will begin at the designated time and if applicants are not present when their lot choice number is called, the meeting co-ordinator will announce the next name on the list. If applicants arrive late, they must inform the meeting co-ordinator who will slot them back into the lot selection process.

Applicants who do not select a lot will receive a refund of their $100.00 (plus GST) application fee. Applicants who select a lot, and then withdraw from lot selection process will forfeit their $100.00 (plus GST) application fee.

Once an applicant selects a lot his/her decision is final and changes will not be accepted.

All participants in the Draw who submit applications agree that the acceptance of any application by Manitoba or the lot selection by a successful applicant does not in any way constitute a binding Agreement for the sale of any Crown land or lease of any Park land. A valid purchase and sale of Crown land or lease of Park land will only occur upon the Minister or other government official responsible for execution of agreements, or his designate, affixing his signature to the Conditional Sale Agreement or Lease Agreement (in the form set out by Manitoba) and the delivery of such fully executed Agreement to the successful applicant.

Applicants selecting a lot will be required to make full payment for that lot after invoices are mailed out by the Crown Lands and Property Agency. Payment will be due to the appropriate party within 30 days of the invoice date.

It is a condition of the Conditional Sale Agreement (Crown lands) and Lease Agreement (Parks) that the applicant must construct a cottage/vacation home and complete the exterior of the cottage to “lock-up stage” within two years or such earlier date as may be prescribed by by-law of the applicable rural municipality.

The date will be set out in the Lease or Sale Agreement indicating when the two-year time frame begins. For subdivisions where road construction has not been completed, a notice will be sent once the road is completed. The two-year time frame will then begin on the date of this notice.

A cottage/vacation home is considered to be completed to lock-up stage when doors, windows, finished exterior siding, and shingles or other roofing material have been installed..

Provincial Parks

Construction of cottages/vacation homes in Provincial Parks must comply with “The Cottager’s Handbook” available at: www.manitoba.ca/conservation/parks/cottaging/documents/cottagers_handbook_currently_under_revision.pdf

Crown Lands

All lots offered for sale are on Crown land and therefore the construction of cottages/vacation homes must comply with all applicable legislation, regulations, building standards and zoning by-laws that can be obtained from the local rural municipality office.

Individual lots offered for sale may not be combined or amalgamated with adjacent lots for the purposes of creating a joint or “double lot.” One suitable cottage/vacation home is required on each lot.

The purchaser may provide a site plan with a Building Permit Application to the Office of the Fire Commissioner, showing approximate dimensions of the building(s) and location on the lot, including distances in relation to lot boundaries. The application will be forwarded to Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship’s Regional Land Manager and the purchaser will then be notified if the site plan is approved or if changes are required.

A work permit must also be obtained from the local Natural Resource Officer at the local Conservation District Office prior to any construction.

Unless otherwise specified by the rural municipality building codes and conditions, the minimum cottage size will be approximately 45 m2 (480 ft2). The maximum size is limited by the size of the lot to ensure there are appropriate distances from sides, front and back of each lot.

Development Time Frame Extension Requests

Failure of the applicant to construct a cottage/vacation home to lock-up stage prior to the deadline may result in the termination of the Conditional Sale or Lease Agreement. However a purchaser or lessee may apply for an extension of the development time frame if there were valid extenuating circumstances that occurred that prevented completion of construction to lock-up stage. The granting of an extension is at the sole discretion of Manitoba.

20


Section 6.0: Title Transfer

Upon entering into a Conditional Sale Agreement for the purchase of a lot, the purchaser will be issued a Licence of Occupation to provide an interim security document to use and occupy the land pending completion of the cottage to lock-up stage.

Upon completion of all conditions set out in the Conditional Sale Agreement, a Transfer document will be prepared which the purchaser can then take to Land Titles Office to register title in his or her name.
