I’m finding a lot of little things like this as we try to build a life on our small plot in the forest. For us it is generally some unknown/unpublished easement or village bylaw that prevents us from doing what we already have permits for. It bugs me a lot how many people are in positions of knowledge/power that don’t share what they know, or often don’t even know what they are supposed to know. And I’m talking like 6 acres and some outbuildings. Not a giant farm and 700k in expenses…
I can’t imagine how frustrating this must be for them.
At first I was like, “maybe they should have checked that…”
But then after reading the article, they were let down at every fucking turn by so many factors.
It wasn’t until Hydro checked that they were notified.
The sad part is that they would probably need to sue the various parties involved to recoup their costs, and they probably can’t afford that.
What a shit show. I feel really bad for that family.
