Remedial action ordered for Kootenay Springs site
City of Cranbrook council May 10 unanimously agreed to a staff recommendation to have the owner of the former Kootenay Springs building undertake remedial actions on the derelict site.
Calling the conditions of the property, which includes a well, “a nuisance,” the city is asking property owner Knox Water Company Ltd. to obtain a report from an accredited structural engineer to confirm whether the building can be remediated and that steps be taken to address the hazardous conditions and unsightliness of the buildings and property are addressed.
Located at 120 – 6th Street North, the former Kootenay Springs buildings were constructed between 1946 and 1950 and city records indicate that the Business Licence issued to Kootenay Springs Ltd was closed in 2005.
