Decision: |
Application by property owners for an order setting aside an arbitration award of compensation made pursuant to the Railway Act, R.S.C. 1906, c. 37. The arbitration proceedings arose from construction of a railway by the Respondent which cut off access from the ocean to the subject properties owned by the Applicants. No land was taken. The subject properties were located on the False Creek Flats in the City of Vancouver. The arbitrators awarded $1 compensation for each of the subject properties but did not state how they had arrived at this award or whether benefits had been set-off against compensation otherwise payable. The arbitration awards were set aside. |
