Canadian Grow-op House Repair Rules Get Tighter
Surrey North Delta Canada The rules are about
to get a lot more stringent for people by Kevin Diakiw The rules are about to get a lot more stringent for people repairing their homes after a marijuana grow-op has been found. The city is strengthening its Controlled Substance Property Bylaw, placing more restrictions on how the homes are repaired. Often, houses with grow operations have unsafe wiring and suffer extensive moisture damage. Currently, when a home is identified as a former marijuana grow operation, a consultant is hired to decide if the building is safe. If not, the city takes away occupancy permits until it is made safe. However, environmental consultants don’t have to be certified. In addition, the consultant only comes in at the beginning of the process and at the very end to sign off on the repairs. It’s difficult to know if repairs have been properly done when all the walls are up and the work is concealed. Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis said many environmental consultants were reticent to sign off on the work, fearing liability if it wasn’t properly done. “The environmental consultants were ever increasingly concerned about their responsibility of signing off at the end of this,” Garis said. That’s about to change. By next month, certified contractors will have to visit frequently to ensure the new work is being performed safely and to code before the project gets approved. “We’re adding some rigour to the entire process,” Garis said. A draft bylaw will be taken to stakeholders, and then be brought back to council for approval. The new bylaw should come into effect by the end of October. kdiakiw@surreyleader.com http://www.bclocalnews.com/surrey_area/surreyleader/news/102884644.html Return To OnlinePot's Legal Section Main Page |
