Notice on Title
The Regional Board placed a Notice on Title for four properties due to ongoing non-compliance with bylaws and the BC Building Code. The Notice on Title serves as notification to anyone searching a property title that the property may be in breach of bylaws or regulations.

When a property is brought into compliance, the RDCO removes the notice on title.
