| | | Mass Retirement Community Eviction (30 photos) < on 5/2/2017 5:05 AM > | Reply with Quote
| | | Reeking of the Marineland / Green Oaks trailer park debacle from half a decade ago, the Niagara region is now the site of another mass eviction. Residents of this retirement community in Fort Erie were given notice by the land-owner, a Language Arts professor at Brock University, of her intention to return the land to an agricultural use. Surely this has nothing to do with the announcement of the construction of the Canadian Motor Speedway just south of the property and is all a heavy coincidence of timing. To be fair, the landowner followed all legal procedures, paying each of the tenants $3000. Eagles Landing - Intro by Ground State Photos, on Flickr Most of the residents here had the type of trailers that were permanently mounted to the ground and built onto with sun-rooms and other extensions. Without mobile capabilities, many of them had no easy way to move their homes. "We are trying to work with her," one resident said. "We are willing to increase rent or to help with the land. We are willing to do what we need to do to keep our homes." In the end, it wasn't enough. In fact, the landowner made each resident financially responsible for the removal of their own structures. As most of these residents were on pensions and couldn't possibly foot that kind of bill, they instead abandoned their homes.
