Chaster House and Park are a valuable community asset with historic connections to Elphinstone. The building and grounds sit only a meter or so above the extreme high tide in the Salish Sea. Similarly, Chaster House backs on to Chaster Creek which flooded up to the house walls during the 2021 atmospheric river. The creek estuary is eroding into Chaster Park. SCRD Parks and Rec Department has suggested that a major climate resiliency project is needed for the area. This new committee has not met yet.
