Dear Sir:

Re: Section 8 Claims for Unopened Road Allowances

AS you are aware, | nN Municipalities by landowners
making Section to Nave adiacent ‘redundant’ road
allowances transferred into their names, Such claims could
result in a significant loss of municipal public land. In Pite
Meadows alone, we estimate our exposure in the range of $1.7
Million dollars,

in most cases,
ai.owance is
dedicated it,

Further,
neces are fulfilling important functions
aS natural green belts and access points to rivers and parks,

ft only makes sense that the y
Should accrue to ail members of Y accruing to the
municipality and not fortunate, adjacent property

owner,

T understand that the Ministry is Presently trying to have the

legislation Changed, Unfortunately, until the legislation is
changed, Municipalities will continue to be Subject to the loss
