February 15, 2019 – Evacuation Order Issued

Seawatch is a subdivision in Sechelt, BC. Since development, the area has experienced multiple sink holes. Since 2013, the District of Sechelt has continued to study the area and has refused to do any remediation or repairs to the District owned roads. The main road of the subdivision has been closed since a sinkhole developed under one property and the road in 2015.

Please consider donating to help the families in Seawatch to help ease the burned of short term costs associated with renting storage space, moving expenses, providing a few months of rent and utility payments, living expenses while looking for work, etc.

Jan 22, 2019 – Due to new ‘cautionary’ signs posted by the District of Sechelt 100 meters before the Seawatch neighborhood, Canada Post is no longer delivering mail to our community mail boxes which are about 1/2 way between the new signs and the road barricades. It’s a 6km drive to the Sechelt Post Office on Inlet Drive to pick up our mail.
