Little support for year-round schooling Hundreds attend open house to voice concerns over weather, lost summer activities Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter
B.C.’s temperamental weather dominated the concerns parents and students had about changing Langley School District to year-round schooling. “They are only kids once, let them be kids,” said one parent who spoke against the district’s suggestion to move to year-long schooling. Hundreds of parents, many with children in tow, showed up to the district’s school calendar open house, held at the school board office on Tuesday. “Don’t take away my camping,” said another parent. Others worried their kids would miss out on municipally-run summer camps that are staffed by university students on their summer break. If school holidays were to fall in winter and in “rainy” spring, many parents worry that would put kids in front of a computer or TV screen for the entire vacation, instead of enjoying outdoor activities. “In the summer we do a lot of free stuff, like go to the park,” said Kirsten Schaffer-Charlesworth, who is against year-round schooling. “So now we have to plan inside options, which means taking them to [indoor play centres] which costs money.” Not everyone can afford to fly somewhere warm, said many parents. One parent suggested that if the district is looking at re-arranging the school calendar, why not factor in making the first two weeks of September part of the holidays? “That’s when we have the nicest weather.” The three possibilities the district is looking at are: to keep the current calendar as it is, with the already approved two-week spring break; to bring in year-round schooling, which means instead of eight weeks in the summer, continued, PAGE 4

Froese said the Township will keep all of the parcels to the west along 257A Street while authorizing the sale of the four lots to the east along 260 Street. Froese noted the decision comes after council cancelled a proposed sale of 21 acres continued, PAGE 3

Not enough heritage in building design Township of Langley council sends proposed Fort Langley project back to the drawing board
An architectural drawing of the design for a proposed twostorey building in historic Fort Langley that was rejected by a majority of Township council Monday for failing to fit in with the heritage character of the area.
Dan Ferguson Times Reporter
A proposed new two-storey, heritage-style office complex for the western entrance to Fort Langley was rejected Monday after a majority of Township councillors complained the exterior didn’t look heritage enough. Councillor Charlie Fox had the most to say about the look of the proposed development in the 23100 block of 96 Avenue, little of it complimentary. “This building does not fit,” Fox said. “It has no heritage appeal at all.” The building simply doesn’t look like a heritage structure, Fox said, arguing the exterior lacked heritage details, the windows were too large and the building design had pillars that don’t belong on an older style of architecture. Councillor Kim Richter agreed, calling the submitted proposal “probably one of the most disappointing building designs that council has been asked to review.” “This is nothing more than a big coloured box,” Richter said. Richter added the people who designed the building are not at fault because they followed the

Councillor Charlie Fox says a proposed two-storey building in Fort Langley has no heritage appeal. A majority of Township council agreed and sent it back to the drawing board. Township heritage guidelines. “I do think there is something drastically wrong with our heritage guidelines,” Richter said. Councillor Grant Ward disagreed, calling the project “a good addition” to Fort Langley that was approved by the Township heritage advisory committee. Councillor Bob Long said he “didn’t mind” the design and grumbled that the design approval process appeared to consist of “send it back until
they come up with something Charlie likes.” It was Councillor Steve Ferguson, with the support of Fox, who proposed referring the design back to staff “to review comments of council as to rectangular design, windows, doors, and covered areas, pedestrian interface with street, and Fort Langley gateway character.” Mayor Jack Froese and Councillors David Davis, Long, and Ward opposed sending it back to staff.
‘Half a forest’ lost is too much, says WOLF from PAGE 1
along 84 Avenue, between 252 and 254 Street known as McLellan Forest. “Nearly 50 acres of Glen Valley land will be retained, and approximately 20 will be marketed,” Froese said. Two of the lots will be sold right away, while the other two will require improvements and remediation work before they are sold, the mayor said. The unsold land, described as the “treed portion of the former gravel pit site” will total 25 acres, more than half of the total property, Froese said. Remediation work will be done to the unsold property where necessary and council may consider designating it as parkland in the future, Froese added. The Township later released a statement saying there is no “old-growth forest” on the land it plans to sell, along with an
aerial photo of the former gravel pit on the site. While the Township waits for the sales to proceed, it will use money from surplus funds and reserves, as well as short-term borrowing “of less than five years” to fund construction of the Aldergrove Community Centre. The decision is a defeat for the recentlyformed Watchers of Langley Forests (WOLF), a residents’ group that has been campaigning to preserve the entire property. WOLF condemned the decision in an online statement posted to their blog after the decision was announced. “The Township is presenting this as an acceptable compromise,” the statement said. “It is not. The forest is a whole ecosystem and must be preserved as such. When you lose half a forest in size you get some-
thing less than half a forest.” “This is not any kind of balance that respects the environment. This is lip service.” WOLF Vice chair Kirk Robertson said the fight to save the full forest wasn’t over. “We’re not going to take this lying down,” Robertson said. “The provincial government needs to get involved in saving this property.” WOLF was trying to raise $3 million to buy the Township-owned land in Glen Valley to prevent its sale to developers. In December, the group had to admit defeat, telling Township council that they found “passionate support” for preserving the forest but only a small amount of donations.” WOLF said while most of the government agencies they approached agreed the site should be preserved, none had the money to do so and one, Metro Vancouver,
has a policy against buying property for parks when the land is publicly owned. Another campaigner for preserving the property was disappointed at the news, but Susan McCaslin said it was still a “victory for conservation.” McCaslin, a Fort Langley poet and retired professor, was involved with a pro-conservation concert of more than 40 Langley Fine Arts high school students inside McLellan Forest in November. “The parts they’ve decided to keep are nearer the roadway and full of older trees, but the ones they’re selling are closer to the river and quite ecologically rare and sensitive, with many older trees as well,” McCaslin said in an email issued after the Township announcement. The lands being sold may contain “species at risk and endangered species” McCaslin said, adding she would continue to press for preservation of all the land.

there would be vacation periods throughout the year; the final option is a balanced calendar with a three-week spring break and a three-week winter break and the entire month of August off. So far, only Douglas Park Community School has a varied calendar with an extended school year into July. It’s proving to be very popular and has helped improve children’s learning because of the continuum of education, said Superintendent Suzanne Hoffman. The majority of parents who attended the open house were against changing the school calendar. Some students said they like the idea of getting extra help and said having three breaks instead of one big summer break, helps them keep focused on studies. At a year-round school in Maple Ridge, staff suggested that it resulted in better attendance from both students and
teachers, with less burn out. Others in favour, said in the current calendar wind-down to the summer break begins early in June, and review and catch-up takes place for weeks in September, so there is loss of learning. “It’s about what’s the best education students in Langley can get,” said Sam Muraca, who works on special projects with the school district. As a former Langley Secondary teacher, he believes year-round schooling will improve learning. But at the Board of Education meeting held after the open house, Hoffman pointed out there is no research or evidence to show that year-round schooling improves learning. “The themes of the research we have done shows that in order for year-round schooling to be successful there needs to be intersessions,” said Hoffman. “There is no predetermined decision here. If there is no appetite for change, we won’t do this,” she said. “We at the
district level believe there are benefits and that is why we are exploring these options.” RC Garnett PAC president Lorraine Baldwin is adamantly opposed to year-round schooling and said the district should focus on fixing its overpopulated school issues first, and transition to the middle school philosophy it has adopted to before venturing into even more change for students. The province has given the district until March to decide on whether or not to change the calendar. The board will vote on it at their March 12 meeting. Should any changes take place, they wouldn’t happen until the 2014/2015 school year. “There are a lot of logistics to work out, and if we can’t work those out, we won’t move forward,” said Hoffman. The district encourages residents to fill out the survey on their website at sd35.bc.ca. Full details of the three options can be found on the website.

Langley City engineer Igor Zahynacz, indicates the location of a cycling path to a resident during an open house on the upcoming Master Transportation Plan held at City Hall on Jan. 23.
Transit, safety top of mind for City residents Calls for sidewalks, better bus service from people who attended transportation open house Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter
Pedestrian safety and improved transit service were the top priorities among the large number of Langley City residents who turned out to the Master Transportation Plan open house held at City Hall last Wednesday. Adding sidewalks and safety improvements at Grade Crescent at 208 Street and at Michaud Crescent and 203 Street were also hot button topics for residents. “I don’t know what the solutions could be, but it’s a very dangerous intersection,” said Rob Ruggles, who lives on 48 Avenue. There was a large crash there last week, where a driver on Grade Crescent drove onto 208 Street into the path of a vehicle, causing that vehicle to flip several times. It also is a popular road for HD Stafford students to use, and there aren’t proper sidewalks, pointed out another resident. After holding an open house about 48 Avenue, the City is embarking on major upgrades to the roadway there, including constructing sidewalks and implementing 30 km/hr in front of the school, which isn’t there right now, says Kara Jefford, City infrastructure engineer. Due to rapid growth and recent transportation system changes in the City and surrounding areas, the current MTP, which was adopted in 2004, requires updating. The new plan, which is to be
completed over the next six months, will guide future development of all modes of transportation in the City, including bicycle, pedestrian, transit, and road networks over the next 25 years. The consultant, Urban Systems, will prepare preliminary transportation concepts for each of the modes of transportation, to be presented at a second public open house in the spring. Residents were given sticky notes to write their suggestions on boards about roads, cycling routes and transit routes. Suggestions included more transit on Highway 10, Fraser Highway, cut hedges down near Blacklock Elementary for better sight lines for pedestrians. One resident complained of the amount of traffic lights in the City’s four sqaure miles. “All public input will be logged and is valuable,” said Igor Zahynacz, the City’s acting manager of engineering. Since the last plan was adopted in 2004, the 204 Street overpass has been built, the Roberts Bank corridor overpasses are underway at 196 Street, over the Bypass and the population has increased in neighbouring Willoughby. Traffic counts have been done and will be factored into the plan. Where the City can’t make changes is to transit service, which falls under TransLink, City staff pointed out.

The next federal election will likely see two MPs representing the Langleys in the House of Commons. The recommendation to split the current Langley riding in two is contained in the justreleased final report of the Commission on Redistribution of Electoral Districts which was released this week. Langley City in Langley and the easternmost part of the Township from 216 St in Langley into Cloverdale would become the new LangleyCloverdale riding while most of the Township, including Fort Langley and Aldergrove, would become part of the Fort Langley—Aldergrove riding. Before the current riding was put in place in 2004, Langley was part of two larger ridings, one of which also included part of Abbotsford. The other had Langley City and a small portion of the Township connected to a riding which was mostly made up of South Surrey and White Rock. The two Langley ridings are part of a Canada-wide reshuffling to reflect population growth that has added five new electoral districts to the Lower Mainland, bringing the total to 26. The report states that it “ventured slightly beyond the eastern boundary of Surrey to create a reconfigured electoral district named Cloverdale— Langley, comprising parts of the Cloverdale and Clayton areas along with the City of Langley.” The commission describes the new riding as a region of expanding population that includes two historic centres. The commission said the new electoral district named Fort Langley—Aldergrove “still exhibits a rural character but

The new ridings would once again divide Langley in two, with the City and everything south of it being paired with Cloverdale, while the remainder would be a Fort Langley-Aldergrove riding. is beginning to undergo population densification.” The commission report still has to be debated at a Parliamentary Committee and the final vote in the House of Commons will not be taken until May or June.

Premier Christy Clark has rejected criticism of her government’s handling of a casino resort proposal in South Surrey. Speaking to reporters at a mineral exploration conference on Monday, Clark brushed aside questions about cabinet minister Rich Coleman telling Surrey councillors they won’t see another casino proposal after voting down the B.C. Lottery Corporation’s proposed Gateway Casinos project. “He’s the minister responsible,” Clark said. “He got some questions and he answered the questions. I think it was as simple as that. It’s a Crown corporation.” In an interview, Coleman said there were heated words exchanged after a long public meeting and Surrey council’s split vote against the proposal.

onday’s announcement that the Township of Langley will be selling a portion of the Glen Valley property may not be everything the Watchers of Langley Forests (WOLF) wanted for the site, but it’s a reasonable compromise that represents a substantial retreat by the mayor and councillors. A little history is in order: When the idea of selling Townshipowned land to help fund a new community centre, swimming pool and ice rink in Aldergrove was first floated, the proposal would have seen the sale of 21 acres of Township-owned forest in Glen Valley on 84 Avenue, between 252 and 254 Streets. Residents won the battle over that site last July, when they convinced council to call it off. At the time, Mayor Jack Froese said the Township would go ahead with plans to sell five other five-acre parcels near 84 Avenue and 260 Street. If residents wanted the Township to keep that land, too, they would have to come up with the money the municipality was counting on for the community centre, some $3 million. Residents formed WOLF and set about trying to raise the funds. After a few months, they conceded defeat, telling council they had been unable to raise more than a “miniscule” amount of money. And so, on Monday, council announced a decision to sell four parcels of land on the second site. In his prepared statement, the mayor pointed out that, in all, 50 acres of Glen Valley land will be retained, and about 20 acres will be sold. Some of it, the mayor said, may become parkland. In response, WOLF issued an online statement insisting the entire forest should be preserved and promising they will keep the pressure on to prevent the sale. The online statement dismissed the deal that will preserve more than two-thirds of the two properties as “lip service.” The Township then responded with a written release of its own, noting the land to be sold is something less than old-growth forest. Most of that particular property, the Township stated, is a former gravel pit and the trees on the site “are no older than the majority of forested land found throughout the Township.” Bottom line: the grass-roots campaign did succeed in preserving most of the forest, and the most preservation-worthy parts at that. It may not be a perfect victory but it’s still a win.

ore money is being earned by fewer people. According to Statistics Canada, 10.6 per cent of the country’s income is now earned by the top one per cent of those who filed tax returns in 2010. The median income for those top earners is almost 10 times higher than the median income for the remaining 99 per cent. This disparity between the haves and the rest of society was the fuel for last year’s Occupy movement that spread around the world from Wall Street. It is a component of the First Nations’ Idle No More protests to reclaim their portion of Canada’s enormous wealth of natural resources, pumped and excavated from lands that once belonged to them. The gap between rich and poor has fired protest and unrest for as long as there’s been currency. Just ask the French, who disposed their monarchy when the population could no longer afford bread because of onerous taxes. In fact, Canada’s not doing too badly when it comes to dispersing income, ranking somewhere in the middle of the rest of the world. According to the Gini Index, a measure of income dispersion developed by an Italian statistician and sociologist in which a coefficient of zero means everyone has exactly the same income and one means all the wealth within a country is held by one person, Canada’s coefficient is .688. That’s lower than countries like Brazil (.784), the United States (.801) and Switzerland (.803). But it’s higher than the Netherlands (.650), Belgium (.662) and Germany (.667). The country with the most equal distribution of income in the world, according its Gini coefficient of .547, is Japan. Of course, all those statistics are meaningless the next time you check your bank statement. That’s the true measure of wealth distribution. Somehow, it’s never enough. —The Burnaby NewsLeader The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

Poor weather no deterrent for Walk for Memories’ supporters Editor: On Sunday, our superb local community once again proved it takes more than a few drops of moisture to spoil a Walk for Memories fundraiser. The second annual event at the Aldergrove Athletic Park in aid of the work of the Alzheimer Society of B.C. was again marked by chilly rain, but this didn’t deter a huge crowd of supporters from joining honouree Carrol Horne and her husband, Terry, for a community “group hug” marking the final days of Alzheimer Awareness
Month. Organizers of the event owe very many thanks to a great many people, notably Township of Langley firefighters who volunteered their time to help set up and take down our apparatus and decor. Many others also gave their time and energy, among them students from Aldergrove and R.E. Mountain secondary schools, and businesses from Fort Langley to Abbotsford were extremely generous with donations. Overall, however, it is the cause of
dementia and the total commitment of our amazing 2013 Walk for Memories honouree, Carrol Horne, that brought so many supporters in inclement weather to our special park. It is still too soon to gauge the final total raised by the walk, but we believe it may have crested the $30,000 mark. Thank you all, on behalf of the 2013 Langley-Aldergrove-Abbotsford Walk for Memories committee, Janet Ingram-Johnson Voluntary chair
Sick of being Vancouver’s ‘pocketbook’ Editor: Regarding the article ‘TransLink vehicle levy back on mayors’ agenda,’ (The Times, Jan. 22). I was dismayed to read about the possibility of yet more tolls, congestion taxes in downtown Vancouver or a vehicle levy of $120 per vehicle. Do they not want people to be able to visit Vancouver on a regular basis? Who benefits most from these taxes — Vancouver, Burnaby and Richmond: those that have the luxury because of existing transportation to carry out their daily business — be it work or play — without a car. It is certainly not those south of the Fraser River. But, once again, who is going to be paying more money
into these areas if this proposal comes to fruition? Improved efficiency is usually what is done by private business to improve the bottom line. They do not just throw more money onto the pile. People south of the Fraser usually own more cars per household and would be taxed disproportionately to those in areas where transportation is readily available and a car not necessary. I am sure I do not just speak for myself when I say we are sick to death of being the pocketbook of those north of the Fraser. Graham Bryan Langley
Wireless technology not proven safe Editor: Smart meters are not safe. Your columnist Tom Fletcher’s ridicule of Team Tinfoil (Opponents near end of road, The Times, Jan. 24) and Energy Minister Rich Coleman’s bland assurances can point to no responsible scientific evidence that wireless technology is safe. If it was safe, why would insurance companies refuse to cover claims of damage to human health and the environment from microwave radiation and why do cellphone companies warn in the small print not to hold the device against your head? People today are smart enough to know the difference between science and industry propaganda. Just read the news release or a summary of the 2012 update of the BioInitiative Report (www.bioinitiative.org) and it’s plain to see that this group of independent scientists and public policy experts from several countries are telling us that there’s lots to be concerned about in our blind rush to install wireless computers in every school and smart meters on every building. Greg McIntyre Walnut Grove
Aldergrove getting short shrift on pool – again Editor: The building of a new pool in Aldergrove has had a lot of controversy over the last few decades. I am writing to clarify the Township plans and to discuss whether they make sense. The residents of Aldergrove have been asking for a pool large enough to accommodate the needs of Aldergrove. The standard answer from the Township has been that it would be too expensive. Five years ago, the Township tried to give us a pool worth around $7 million and we said that pool was inadequate. Aldergrove residents were told the pool complex that we were asking for would cost $14 million dollars which was too expensive for Aldergrove. Now the Township has proposed to pay $34 million for a recreation complex but, once again, with an inadequate The
pool. There would be a new ice arena (the present ice arena to be demolished has some of the best ice in Canada), fitness rooms, meeting rooms and a new library space which the Fraser Valley Library stated that we need. On the pretext of paying for our new pool we would need to sell forest lands and demolish the Aldergrove ice arena and have it replaced with a high rise of low income apartments. The low income apartments component is not yet set in stone, but there have been no developers wanting to build expensive apartments and even back when the new Aldergrove core plan was adopted this was the talk by Township staff. What is wrong with this picture? Aldergrove already has its share of social
problems. We have no need to attract more. The plan for the pool was to give the community a more positive lifestyle for its youth and adult community. The Township found $7 million last summer for an expansion of the Langley Events Centre without selling forest lands. Or is the selling of the forest lands needed because the $7 million was spent on the LEC? We get short-changed on the pool, not even enough room for the required number of parking places on the property with all of the amenities planned for the Aldergrove Elementary site. The plan is to lease out or shut down the Kinsman Community Centre where the library is now.
We get more social problems and where is this sustainable country living that the mayor promises us with forests sold to developers? The ice arena needs to stay where it is. If it needs a face lift that can be done for far less. The amount of money saved by joining heating and cooling systems in one building does not justify spending the extra $20 million. We were told five years ago that the high-end pool which includes a fitness area that we would like would cost $14 million so spend that on a pool for Aldergrove. Without the ice arena, meeting rooms and library space that’s all that we need to spend. Dianne Kask Aldergrove

Blacklock Elementary parents working to replace unsafe playground PAC needs to raise $80,000 to pay for new equipment, bark mulch Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter
Parents at little Blacklock Elementary are trying to raise around $80,000 to replace their unsafe playground. It’s no easy feat to come up with that kind of money, said PAC president Kristina Haglof. “The maintenance department has deemed it unsafe and it is slippery on some parts,” said Haglof. The PAC has been fundraising to replace the aging structure for about two years and are making a plea to the public to help. If they donate $25 or more, they can get a tax receipt through the Langley School District Foundation, she said.
“They require we use bark mulch, we don’t want to, but we have to,” she said. “That alone costs $5,000.” Haglof, who has three daughters going to Blacklock, said their playground is well used not just by students but by many in the community. Siblings who come to Kristina watch Langley City baseball teams play on it as does members of the community, she said. The PAC has raised nearly $30,000 so far. She has spoken to a playground making company and they told her the structure can be installed in increments. “It would be great to get something going in there during spring break so that kids could come back to school
with a nice surprise,” she said. Blacklock’s PAC is just one of nearly a dozen elementary school PACs being forced to come up with cash to replace aging playgrounds. Alex Hope Elementary PAC just had several donations, including $25,000 from the Township, Haglof PAC president to buy a new playground. They had gone without one since the older structure was condemned in September. If you would like to donate to Blacklock’s playground replacement write a cheque to Langley School District Foundation indicating it is for Blacklock Playground sending it to the school board office. You can also donate online at langleyschooldistrictfoundation.com.

More charges in investigation into stolen bulldozer, loader Suspect, 73, accused of punching police officer during property search Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter
A 30-year-old Aldergrove man who is charged alongside his 73-year-old associate for several property crimes is facing six new stolen property charges in relation to the original investigation. Derek Hall is now charged with theft of six metal garbage containers found on the accused property in the 6600 block of 256 Street. He shares the acreage with his co-accused Roeloff Dendyver, 73, charged with several property crimes, as well as assaulting a police officer back in October 2012. It was after a lengthy investigation charges were laid against the two men, accused
in a number of property crimes, including stealing a brand new truck during a test drive, and stealing a bulldozer and trailer. Police allege Dendyver attended a local dealership and test drove a new 2012 Dodge pickup. A short time later, he reported to police that he had been carjacked and the truck stolen. Later that month, Langley RCMP received a report of a new Dodge pickup truck parked in the trees on the property where the two men live. However, when officers went there, no truck was found. Also in March, Langley RCMP received a report that a Caterpillar loader and a Komatsu bulldozer had been stolen from a construction site. As Langley RCMP Street Enforcement Unit continued their investigation, they applied for and were granted a search warrant for the two accused property. During the search, both the loader and bulldozer were recovered, as well as a key
for the new Dodge pickup that had allegedly been carjacked. Additionally, a large utility trailer was located on the property and determined to have been stolen. It was returned to the owner. The Dodge pickup truck was recovered at a residence of a relative to the older man. The vehicle was returned to the dealership. Additionally, when police arrived on the property and announced they would be executing the search warrant, the elderly man allegedly punched one of the officers in the face. Dendyver is charged with public mischief, assaulting a peace officer and possession of stolen property. Hall is now charged with theft of a motor vehicle, eight counts of possession of stolen property and public mischief. The two are also jointly charged with theft of a motor vehicle, and two counts of possession of stolen property. Hall is out on bail and made a brief court appearance on Jan. 10.

ParkLane’s waterfront River District wins international award
Setting a Gold standard ParkLane Homes is celebrating River District’s Gold win for Best Presentation Centre at The Nationals, an awards program presented by the National Association of Home Builders. The awards are the largest of their kind in North America and include submissions from North and South America and Asia. “We are proud to accept The Nationals’ Best Presentation Centre Gold Award for River District Centre,” says ParkLane’s Chief Operating Officer Ben Taddei. “This unique and innovative Centre is transforming River District into an animated and vibrant place with a real sense of community
only two years into construction.” River District is located on southeast Vancouver’s waterfront. Once completed, it will cover 130 acres and include 7,000 homes, shops, restaurants, schools, daycares and parks. The River District Centre holds the presentation centre, Romer’s Burger Bar and a community centre. “River District is a unique project, not just to the immediate community, but to all of Vancouver,” says Taddei. “To receive international accolades puts both River District and Vancouver in the spotlight.” For more information, visit riverdistrict.ca or call 604-431-5594.
surrounding area is just a few minutes away. Education is available at Douglas College’s David Lam campus and at the elementary and secondary schools in the neighbourhood. When it’s some outdoor exercise you’re in the mood for, Town Centre Park and Lafarge Lake are right outside, perfect for a run or cycle, and if golf is more your speed, Westwood Plateau Golf and Country Club is a few minutes away as well. The Evergreen Cultural Centre features travelling art exhibits, plays and other
cultural activities, for those nights when you are in the mood for a bit of culture. The homes at Tamarack are movein ready, which is a great feature for potential buyers. “You can walk through a home that you can actually purchase,” Liljedahl says.

Move-in ready homes in Coquitlam
Finding a perfect view at Polygon’s Tamarack By Kerry Vital
Polygon Homes is building on its reputation for quality homes with Tamarack, its newest condominum development in Coquitlam’s Dayanee Springs community. With amazing features, a convenient location and plenty of amenities, it’s easy to imagine calling Tamarack home. “It is literally almost impossible to choose my favourite part,” says sales manager Theresa Liljedahl says. “There are so many perfect things about it.” One of those perfect things is the amazing natural views from every home. Depending on where you are in the building, your new home will either look out at Mount Baker or at Coquitlam’s Burke Mountain. “The views are fantastic,” Liljedahl says. Each home features an outdoor balcony or patio, with some groundlevel homes including a private yard. Even when the weather outside isn’t so great, the huge windows in your home will let the natural light pour in. Inside, polished granite countertops and flat-panel laminate cabinetry in the kitchen is complemented by the stainless-steel appliances and warm wood laminate flooring, which continues into the other living areas. A full-height pantry is offered in some homes, which adds more storage space to a kitchen that is already wonderful. A breakfast bar perfect for a quick bite in the morning or gathering around during a dinner party is also an integral part of most of the homes. The luxury continues in the spa-like bathrooms, with their gorgeous marble or quartz countertops and laminate cabinetry. Most homes include double sinks, which are a masterstroke of convenience for couples, and a deep soaker tub in the ensuite. A ceramic tile tub and shower surround with mosaic glass tile accents is clean and elegant, while the full-width vanity mirror is complemented by soothing lighting that will never put you in a bad light. The two-bedroom homes are spacious and inviting, with thoughtfully designed floorplans that are great for couples, young families and roommates. “Polygon can design a layout that is very attractive,” Lilejedahl says. “They’ve perfected the plans to give you the most usable space.” Tamarack is the final phase in Polygon’s Dayanee Springs community, and homeowners will be able to take

The club includes an outdoor pool, whirlpool spa and kids club, a furnished terrace with a large barbecue, a fully equipped fitness studio and a great room that is perfect for entertaining with its stone-clad fireplace, lounge seating and billiard table. It also holds a pet spa area, screening room and many other things. “We’ve had weddings there, bridal showers, everything,” says Liljehdahl. “You don’t have to entertain at home if you have a group of people over.” If you want to venture off the property, shopping and dining at Coquitlam Centre mall and its

The business does remain open, however, just at different locations. from the current location on 88 Ave. The only thing that can’t be done for now is pedicures, because the chairs and baths were tied into Milica’s plumbing. But massages, facials and other treatments are busy. “My staff have been amazing to work so hard to get everything up and running,”she said. Milica’s serves about 40 to 50 clients per day, so it’s a busy place. “Our clients have been so understanding and supportive.” This isn’t the first time she has been flooded.

Chance for students to win computer lab Staples and Earth Day Canada have partnered in contest where students can win a computer lab for their school. Students from elementary and secondary schools are encouraged to submit a 500-word essay on how their school has become environmentally responsible. Students can submit their entries at Staples.ca/RecycleForEducation, or on the Staples Canada Facebook page. The 10 winning entries will receive a $25,000 computer lab for their schools. Two labs will be awarded in the B.C./Yukon area, with the other eight going to other regions across Canada. The prizes aim to help schools address challenges in access to technology. A recent survey by Vision Critical on behalf of Staples Canada, found that while 86 per cent of Canadian teachers believe that upgraded computer labs will help students progress in reading and literacy skills, one in five schools lacks access to a computer lab. Winning schools will be announced in early April.

A flood dropping hundreds of gallons of water into Milica Salon and Spa in Walnut Grove may have dampened business at that location for a while, but hair is still being cut and spa services continue, just in different locations. Milica owner Michelle Pargee has been putting in long days and into the night after a water pipe burst on Jan. 14, pouring more than 1,000 litres of water into the spa, causing the ceiling to collapse and ruining equipment. “There was four inches of water on my floor,” said Pargee. “The firemen were amazing. They asked me what I needed saving so I told them the computers.” The inside of the spa has to be completely redone and is currently under construction. Milica’s at #10020330 88 Ave. should be up and running again in a few weeks, but in the meantime, Pargee had to scramble to find alternative locations. Currently her hair salon is being run out of the Champers Salon (8790 204 St.), who have kindly offered half of their space. The spa is being run two doors up

Businesses challenged to ‘Turn Down the Heat’ Objective is to increase awareness of reducing energy consumption and to collect sweaters and jackets for donation FortisBC and the Business Improvement Areas of B.C. (BIABC) are teaming up for the first time to promote energy conservation during “Turn Down The Heat Week,” Feb. 2 to 9. Participating businesses in 20 Business Improvement Areas (BIAs) will turn down the heat both at work and at home and wear sweaters to help promote energy conservation.
This inaugural event is a collaboration between FortisBC and BIABC with the support of 20 BIAs from Vancouver Island, Metro Vancouver, and the Interior. “FortisBC encourages a culture of energy efficiency and conservation in the workplace and in the home,” said Doug Stout, vice president of energy solutions and external relations at FortisBC.
“We welcome supporting the Business Improvement Areas in this challenge and encourage our employees and customers to get involved.” Local BIAs will also collect donations of sweaters and other warm clothing with a combined goal of 2,500 sweaters from participating BIA communities. For its part, FortisBC will challenge its employees to collect donations of gently used or new sweaters for local organizations who will give the sweaters to those in need. “The objective of “Turn Down the Heat Week” is to
make everyone more aware of reducing energy consumption — and to collect sweaters, coats and warm clothing for those in our communities who can really use them,” said Teri James, director of the BIABC and executive director of the Downtown Langley Business Association. “This is another example of BIAs in the province working with organizations to reinforce a sense of community.” The DLBA is collecting warm clothes for the Gateway of Hope. During this week as well, FortisBC will be encouraging customers to

Army teams march to gold Langley’s Hockey House roller hockey teams capture two gold, silver and bronze at prestigious San Jose tournament The Hockey House Army went into San Jose and marched their way to a pair of gold medals. The Langley-based roller hockey program sent five teams in various divisions to the prestigious West Coast Winternationals, which ran at the Silver Creek Sportsplex in San Jose, Calif. from Jan. 18 to 21. And two of the five took top spot in their divisions, while another pair also found the podium, winning a silver and bronze medal, respectively. Both the Army’s men’s (18 and over) and squirt (12 and under) teams finished in top spot. The squirt team proved to be a stingy foe as they recorded four shutouts in their six games, including no goals against in either the semifinals or finals. They cruised through the round robin with a 4-0 record — they beat their foes by a combined 25-4 — to earn the top seed and a spot in the Gold division playoffs. After a 2-0 semifinal win, the Army was matched up against the Huntington Beach (HB) Mission Militia 11th Battalion, and controlled the game from start to finish for the 4-0 victory. Goaltender Braeden Erheardt was named the top goalie for the tournament in the squirt division. Erheardt finished with a save percentage of .902. For the Army’s men’s team, they were led by most valuable player Tyler Martins, who was also the division’s top scorer.
The squad also boasted a perfect round robin mark of 4-0 — which all came at the expense of California teams — and then defeated the Arizona Flow 4-1 in the semifinals. That pitted the Army up against a Hawaiian team, the KIHA Warriors, in the finals with the gold medal on the line. The Warriors tied the score at four with 40 seconds to go, but Martens found himself in all alone on a breakaway with 11 seconds to go, and he made no mistake, using his patented toedrag move and burying his shot just under the crossbar for the dramatic winning goal. The Army’s junior (21 and under) squad earned a spot straight in the gold medal game thanks to a 3-0-1 round robin record. But in the final, the team ran into early penalty trouble to fall behind by a couple of goals to the Mission/ Bauer Arizona Outcasts, and they could not recover, losing 6-2. The peewee squad was the second after a 4-0-0 round robin record, which placed them in the Gold bracket of the tournament. In the semifinals, Dakota Lewis and Kam Loof struck for the Army against Hawaii, but had their gold medal dreams dashed in overtime, falling 3-2, to place third overall. Defenceman Baylee Wright was named the tournament high scorer for the peewee division with 19points in four games. The Hockey House also had a team in the mite (10 and under) division, but they did not advance out of the round robin after winning one game. The Hockey House Army teams were all coached by Kirk French, who has won gold in the past while playing roller hockey for Team Canada. Assistant coaches were Meka Trepanier, Brad Carr, Trevor Townsend and Trevor Sandham.

Spartans snap losing skid
Gary AHUJA/Langley Times
Mountain Eagles’ Harsahib Sandhu is fouled as he goes up for the lay-up during his team’s opening round victory at the Eagles senior boys’ basketball tournament on Friday. Mountain placed fifth at the eight-team tournament.
The Trinity Western Spartans snapped a threematch losing streak with a pair of victories, qualifying for the Canada West men’s volleyball playoffs in the process. The Spartans won 3-0 (25-20,25-21,25-21) and 3-1 (25-17,22-25,25-20,25-20) on Friday and Saturday in Calgary against the Mount Royal Cougars to improve to 13-5 on the season. They are ranked fifth in the country. Nick Del Bianco led the team all weekend with a combined 40 kills while Steven Marshall had five aces, including four on Friday night when the Spartans had eight as a team. “All of our guys did what we asked them to do in their specific roles,” said Spartans coach Ben Josephson. “That’s how we have to win. Every single player had a hand in contributing to tonight’s win. I thought they showed a ton of heart and our bench was fantastic.” ••••• The Trinity Western Spartans women’s volleyball pushed their conference winning streak to seven matches while improving to 16-2 thanks to a pair of victories in Calgary against the Mount Royal Cougars. The Spartans, ranked second in the country, won 3-0 (25-20,25-18,25-15) and 3-1 (25-21,23-25,2624,25-20) over the weekend. Amy Ott (14 kills, 10 digs, six blocks), Amber Brown (11 kills, nine digs) and Alicia Perrin (10 kills, 11 blocks) led the attack. Kelci French broke the Spartans single-season record of 36 aces, which was held by assistant coach Lies Reimer.

LUSA seeks new coaches The Langley United Soccer Association is seeking staff coaches for its spring development program. The boys and girls soccer club needs candidates who can demonstrate success in coaching at the youth level and exhibit excellent knowledge of player development and the needs of youth players. The spring development program runs April 8 to June 9. Successful candidates must demonstrate a commitment to the Canadian Soccer Associations’ Wellness to World Club document as it relates to the Long Term Program Development (LTPD). Staff coaches will not be able to be involved with their sons or daughters’ teams. Qualified and licensed candidates are encouraged to send a letter of application, resume and names of one reference by email to the LUSA technical director Mark Parker at technicaldirector@ luysa.com. Review of applicants will begin immediately and continue until the positions are filled. ••••• A Storm proved to be greater than Thunder in a clash or rival U9 girls’ soccer teams. Amanda Clauzel scored the game’s only goal, on a set-up from Danielle Jack, and the defence took care of the rest, playing a strong overall game as the Langley United Storm defeated the Langley FC Thunder 1-0 on Saturday (Jan. 26) at South Surrey Athletic Park. Camyrn Lyon earned game most valuable player honours. This was the third time the two teams have met this season with the Storm taking two of the three. matches.

Valley West Hawks’ Eric Callegari skates the puck into the attacking zone with Vancouver Northwest Giants’ Jackson Cressey in pursuit during B.C. Major Midget Hockey League action at the Langley Events Centre on Saturday. The Giants won 3-0 and then wrapped up the weekend with another shutout victory, 1-0 over the Hawks on Sunday at the Burnaby Winter Club.
Benson fifth on the track, Johnson ninth in the pool Led by Fiona Benson who finished fifth in the mile run against lofty competition with a time of 4:43.34, the Trinity Western’s men’s and women’s track and field teams put together a strong overall performance at the University of Washington Invitational on Saturday at Dempsey Indoor in Seattle. Benson’s effort saw her finish just over five seconds behind the leader as she clocked a time that, once
converted, will see her move into the upper echelon of the CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sport) 1500m rankings. Beyond Benson it was another quality day for the Spartans as 15 of the school’s 18 competing athletes posted season or personal bests while one more school record was broken. Amongst TWU’s top performers was Rebecca

Marchant whose triple jump of 11.70m broke the Spartans school record and put her seventh in the CIS rankings. High jumper Emma Nuttall also impressed as she improved on her season’s best jump with a clearance of 1.79m, which maintains her position atop the CIS rankings. The result tied her for first place at the meet but, officially, she dropped to second on a countback.
••••• It was a trifecta for Kirby Johnson. The Trinity Western Spartans swimmer placed ninth in the 200m freestlye at the Canada West championships. In addition to the top 10 finish, Johnson set a new school record in the event and qualified for the Canadian Interuniversity Sport national championships. The championships are Feb. 21 to 23 in Calgary.

Rivermen tripped up by Surrey, Trail Gary ahuja Times Sports
A weekend that began with promise, ended up with a pair of narrow losses for the Langley Rivermen as they gained just two of a possible six points. The junior A hockey club began a busy stretch of three games in three days with a 5-2 win over the visiting Salmon Arm Silverbacks on Friday, before losing 3-1 to the host Surrey Eagles and then 4-3 back at home at the Langley Events Centre against the Trail Smoke Eaters. Langley coach and general manager Bobby Henderson said Friday’s victory was arguably the team’s best performance of the season as they had all facets of the game going. Mario Puskarich tallied two goals and four points in the win, upping his lead in the BCHL scoring race with 30 goals and 61 points. Austin Azurdia, Jakob Reichert and Aaron

Langley Rivermen’s Ben Butcher is tripped up by Trail’s Valik Chichkin during BCHL action at the Langley Events Centre on Sunday. Trail won 4-3. Dolby had the other Langley goals. Unfortunately, that proved to be the highlight of the weekend. After a poor start against Surrey, Henderson was impressed with his team’s bounce back but the team failed in converting its scoring
chances. Trevor Cope had the lone Langley score. And that lack of finish carried over to Sunday’s matinee, where Langley fired 48 pucks on net but only came up with three goals. With the score tied at three in the third
period, the Rivermen had a glorious opportunity for the go-ahead goal but Puskarich was denied by Lyndon Stanwood on a penalty shot. A few minutes later, Trail capitalized on the power play for the winning tally. “(Trail) went 2-for-5
on the power play and we went 1-for-6,” Henderson said. “That was the difference.” Reichert, Mark Whiteley and Evan Anderson had the Rivermen goals. Langley’s next home game is against Coquitlam on Tuesday (Feb. 5) at the LEC.

CAR CARE & REPAIR Difficult Starting in Winter It's a common problem: A driver goes to his or her car on a cold winter's morning, puts the key in the ignition, only to discover the car engine won't turn over. Cold weather can wreak havoc on a car's performance. For an engine to start, a complicated process involving several essential components must go off without a hitch. When the key is turned in a car, that turn causes a spark to take place in the spark plugs. This then ignites the fuel and oxygen mixture present in the engine. When the air temperature is cold, the chemical combustion taking place in the engine may be compromised. That's because all chemical reactions slow down when it is cold. Combine this
with a cold battery that has also slowed down due to the temperature and, as a result, won't crank the engine very efficiently, and starting the engine is suddenly very difficult. One of the remedies to this situation is to keep the engine as warm as possible. It can take 8 to 12 hours for an auto engine to cool down after the vehicle has been
driven. So parking the car in a garage and out of the wind can help keep the heat in longer and prevent cold start problems. That's because wind does not cause the heat from the engine to dissipate as quickly. Another thing to try that can help engines perform better in the cold weather is a lower viscosity motor oil, which will flow more easily.

July 16, 1924 – January 7, 2013
Our beloved Mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, aunt and friend passed away peacefully in Langley. She will be greatly missed by all those who were blessed to know her. Predeceased by husband James, son James Jr. and son-inlaw Lorin, she is survived by her loving family, Children: Rick (Inge), Yvonne (Ken), Janet, Tom (Michele), Gary (Sandi), daughter-inlaw Donna, Sisters Eileen (Fred), Jeannie (Johnny), Roxy (Dick), Brother Dan (Rita), 17 Grandchildren 12 Great Grandchildren and many nieces, nephews and friends. Babe was a prairie girl, born and raised on a homestead just outside of Provost Alberta. She was the 4th child in an extended family of 10 children, growing up in the depression. She met husband Jim in Edmonton during the war years when she was working for Canadian Airways and he an RCAF Gunnery Officer. They married in 1943 and eventually settled in Vancouver after the War with little Ricky in tow. After the birth of 5 more children, Edna and Jim began a new life on a dairy farm outside Mission. Edna soon became a milker of cows, tractor driver, gardener, accountant, purchaser, amazing cook and baker, housekeeper and decorator all the while raising a large family in a tiny 5 room house. When they moved to Mission in the 60’s with the youngest two children, Edna took on a new challenge; she got a ‘paying’ job at the local hospital and joined the church. She later joined son Jim’s company Fitzwright in the office where she worked until retirement in 1989, making many new friends. Edna was a keen volunteer giving generously of her time and spirit to the Salvation Army where she spent many happy, fulfilling hours helping people. She had a firm belief in the Lord and her deep spiritual faith was an example to us all. No one need ask for a prayer, they were offered and given most sincerely. She was a kind and loving soul, with a keen sense of humor and a love of good fun. She will be dearly missed by her family, friends and all that knew her. A Celebration of Edna’s life will be held on Saturday, February 9th, at the Newlands Golf and Country Club in Langley, 21025 48th Ave, from Noon to 3:00 pm in the Copper Room. Donations in lieu of flowers may be made to the Salvation Army or the charity of your choice.
