As per our new CBO: I called to see if Mr. Arcand would extend the same level of enforcement enjoyed by Amherstview. The answer was NO. I asked if he intended to enforce regulations around waterproofing and soil gas control. The answer was NO.
Thankfully the Ontario Building Code is very easy to understand. If Mr. Arcand fails to enforce the requirements you can sue South Frontenac for damages. Everything from leaky basements to lung cancer. If the damages are below $25,000 you may sue in small claims court (leaky basements). If the damages are greater (lung cancer) you must appeal to the Superior Court of Ontario.
