Pathways Abilities Society says it has always worked hard to accommodate any requests to access Hadgraft Wilson Place.

The affordable-living apartment building was ordered to evacuate on March 30 after ground shifting from neighbouring construction caused cracks in the structure.

The construction is for that of UBC Okanagan91裸聊视频檚 downtown Kelowna campus. UBCO and UBC Properties Trust have not accepted any responsibility for the damage but told Black Press Media in an email on Monday, April 29 that they have requested access to Hadgraft Wilson Place through BC Housing to complete an assessment on necessary building repairs.

BC Housing told Black Press Media the building belongs to Pathways and it is at the society91裸聊视频檚 discretion to allow for access to the building. In an email statement, BC Housing stated, 91裸聊视频淏C Housing has been supporting Pathways Abilities Society prior to and following the evacuation order issued by the city91裸聊视频檚 fire chief on March 30. Geotechnical and structural engineering consultants are all retained by Pathways. As such, disclosing the geotechnical reports on Hadgraft Wilson Place is at their discretion. Pathways have informed us that they have accommodated all requests the UBC Trust has made to access the building, including tours of the damages, and will continue to accommodate requests.91裸聊视频�

Pathways91裸聊视频� executive director Charisse Daley confirmed the information.

91裸聊视频淎nytime they91裸聊视频檙e ever asked for access we have given it to them. We took them through in November identifying the damage,91裸聊视频� Daley said of UBC Properties Trust.

To allow UBC Properties Trust access to Hadgraft Wilson Place, Daley said they just need enough time to give the tenants proper notice of landlord entry into the unit as per the residential tenancy laws.

Since the evacuation, Hadgraft Wilson Place residents have been living in various hotels scattered throughout Kelowna. With help from the city, Pathways has secured dorms at Okanagan College for the residents of Hadgraft Wilson Place to stay temporarily until Aug. 15. Plans are still being finalized, but the tenants are expected to move in the coming days.

91裸聊视频淲e are absolutely grateful. It gives the tenants some stability for the next few months,91裸聊视频� Daley said, adding that the residents are excited to all be together again.

Daley said the whole ordeal is beyond frustrating. She commented that the Hadgraft Wilson Place project cost about $20 million to complete and residents only moved into the building in May 2023, and less than a year later the building has become inhabitable.

Pathways Abilities Society is calling on UBC Properties Trust to stop all construction of the downtown campus until Hadgraft Wilson Place residents are safely back at home. Daley said at that time UBC Properties Trust should 91裸聊视频渞eassess the plans and make sure that any further construction doesn91裸聊视频檛 cause damage to this building.91裸聊视频�

UBC Properties Trust has not responded to any emails from Black Press. UBC Okanagan was unable to meet deadlines for publication. The story will be updated as necessary.
