No Quick Decision in Landmark Court Case Against Langley Township
By: Matthew Claxton | Langley Advanced Times • June 5, 2025
It may be months before there is a decision in a potentially landmark case over whether Langley Township can collect a certain kind of development fees from the builders of a new film studio.
Lorval Developments, along with Martini Film Studios and other firms involved in plans to build a huge new sound stage complex in the Willoughby neighbourhood, took the Township to court in September 2024.
Their petition to B.C. Supreme Court asked the judge to declare the Township's Community Amenity Contribution (CAC) policy "null and void."
SURREY, BC – The Fraser Valley market showed early signs of a spring thaw in February, with sales increasing over January, but continuing to trail typical levels for this time of year. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 843 sales on its Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in February, a 36 per cent increase from January, but 38 per cent below the ten-year seasonal average. New listings declined nine per cent in February to 2,796, suggesting some sellers are choosing to wait amid competitive inventory levels, and may be positioning their homes for the peak of the spring market.
