REMEDIAL ACTION ORDER
TO ORDER THE REMOVAL OF NUISANCE BUILDING FROM A CERTAIN PROPERTY
WHEREAS:
A. Patricia Cuthbert (the “Owner of the Property”) is the registered owner in fee simple and occupier of lands and premises located in the City of Langford, having a civic address of 2486 Jeanine Drive, Langford BC and legally described as LOT 3, SECTION 107, ESQUIMALT DISTRICT, PLAN 30073 (PID: 001-158-996) (the “Property”);
B. The Property contains a vacant secondary structure that has remained uninhabitable since its relocation from another municipality in 2012. The structure is in a dilapidated state, with flooding in the lower level, accumulation of debris and discarded materials and potential structural instability. These conditions have resulted in persistent safety concerns, nuisance concerns and ongoing neighborhood complaints. The City considers these conditions to be offensive, unsightly, and a nuisance, and not in keeping with the standards of the community;
C. Repeated efforts by City staff to cause the Owner of the Property to remove the structure and to mitigate the nuisance have failed to achieve tangible results.
NOW THEREFORE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LANGFORD IN OPEN MEETING ASSEMBLED HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Council declares the vacant secondary structure and associated conditions on the Property, including flooding, structural decay, and accumulation of debris to be a nuisance pursuant to the Community Charter Section 74(1) and 74(2).
