development · Union Bay property
Robert Bohn Sr, a convicted felon, has purchased a $3 million property in Union Bay and leased it to Deep Water Recovery, a company criticized for poor environmental practices and non-compliance with Ministry of Environment fines. The lease has been cancelled, but the company refuses to remove vessels trespassing on the Crown lease.
This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
