New lease on life for evacuated TerraceBC tenants
Tenants at the Coachman Apartments complex who evacuated after pipes burst amid freezing weather on Boxing Day will have places to stay until Feb. 19 thanks to a local non-profit helping foot the bill for hotels.
Whether tenants should return will depend on the results of air quality inspections over black mould, Klie told the crowd of worried residents. Bujtas added that will depend on the volume of mould. Environmental public health staff also expressed concern about the lack of access to drinking water and for the sewer system. They’re making sure any public health risks are found and dealt with, a spokesperson said.
Skeena MLA Ellis Ross has urged the province to buy the Coachman and convert it into affordable housing. That could save tenants from renovictions, he said, adding that a long-term solution is needed.
