Decision: |
Appeal by the owner from a compensation award by a valuator appointed pursuant to the Hydro and Power Authority Act, S.B.C. 1964, c. 7, and varied on an earlier appeal by the expropriating authority. Partial taking of 32 ac. of unimproved land with subdivision potential. The subject property was located near Revelstoke. The valuator had awarded compensation in the amount of $64,050. On the first appeal this award was reduced to $32,340. The issue on the present appeal was whether the judge hearing the first appeal had properly considered the valuation evidence. The appeal was allowed and the compensation award was increased to $52,770. Costs were awarded to the Appellant. |
