Action is being taken to address what the Municipality of North Cowichan calls “long-standing issues” at the Twin Gables property in Crofton. The municipality has issued a remedial action order following complaints from residents about the condition of the property, which connects the waterfront to Joan Avenue. Mayor Rob Douglas said the area has been declared a hazard and enforcing the order will present challenges. “While the site’s current condition is widely regarded as an eyesore, it also provides important affordable housing for low-income residents,” he said. It added that if the owner fails to comply, the municipality may carry out the required work at the owner’s expense.
