Manufactured home park residents in limbo as land sale imminent - BC News castanet.net - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from castanet.net Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
The land, part of a larger 50-acre parcel, is set to be sold next week, with plans to reduce the park to 41 homes. Peter Kedge, president of the Tri-Way Park Residents Association, said residents understand landowners have the right to sell, and provincial and federal legislation provides residents with financial compensation, but that money won’t be enough to keep some adequately housed. “The level of anxiety is very hard to overestimate. There are some folks here who may have some financial cushion. There are others who have literally month-to-month and the equity in their homes. So the possibility that the park will be closed is daunting for many,” Kedge said.
