TerraceBC landslide victims sue city and local developer
Victims of a landslide threatening homes on McConnell Crescent in Terrace have filed lawsuits claiming negligence by the city during the building of properties now at risk of sliding down a steep slope into the Kitsumkalum River behind them.
Neighbours Sudarshan and Kashmir More are also suing. The couple can’t live at home since the landslide took out their backyard, leaving sewage pipes exposed to the elements. Amanda Horvath said her family and neighbours are happy to see that steps are being taken by the city to stabilize the slope behind their homes, adding that how they move forward will depend on their losses.
“The city has also said that the remediation costs won’t cover the cost of rebuilding the septic fields.” The plaintiffs say the city’s fault lies in having allowed digging on both properties within a 20 metre area from the crest of the slope against the advice of a geotechnical engineers.
