The owners have worked out an agreement with their home insurance company who will cover their costs through title insurance, and the insurance company have retained a lawyer and surveyor who have completed the necessary work to now bring forward the closure bylaw. Notifications have been placed in a local newspaper as required though provincial legislation.
