The Province of BC has standard regulations in place to protect property from any potential natural hazards such as flooding or erosion. Because all of the lots are waterfront lots on a lake which can have varying water levels, there is a flood protection covenant in place that ensures that no buildings are built within 7.5 meters of the natural boundary of the lake. To read the covenant document governing flood protection click here.
Water Filtration:
The default source for potable water is Stuart Lake. The Province of BC and Northern Health have standard regulations in place to ensure that any drinking water meets the water quality guidelines of the province. There is a water quality covenant in place that stipulates that lot owners with constructed dwellings, and who are using the lake for drinking water, are responsible for using adequate water filtration to ensure their drinking water continues to meet water quality guidelines. To read the covenant document governing Water Filtration click here.
No Build Zone:
The Province of BC has standard regulations in place to protect land from any potential natural hazards such as flooding or erosion. There are some moderately steeper slopes above the beach area on some lots, so a geotechnical assessment of the Island was performed to assess any potential erosion hazards. It was determined that there was no evidence of slides or erosion with very low likelihood of slides effecting the lots; it was also determined that any shoreline erosion due to waves would be very slow - likely over decades or centuries. Out of caution, and to ensure the protection of the environment from any future issues, a no-build zone was created on the steeper portions of slopes for lots 10-17. For these 7 lots buildings need to be built above the slopes identified on these lots. To read the covenant document governing the no build zone, including the full geotechnical assessment performed on the island click here.
