Residents petition for parking and traffic study Mills Road neighbourhood concerned with safety issues Steven Heywood News staff
Residents along and nearby Mills Road in Sidney have petitioned the municipality to study traffic and parking issues that one resident says is sparking a lot of
neighbourhood complaints. Fatima Warner presented a 63-name petition to the Town of Sidney this month, asking for a traffic and parking study of Mills Road from Resthaven Drive to Judson Place, including the adjacent Pleasant Street and Cotoneaster
Place. Warner, whose family lives on Cotoneaster, said she often walks through the neighbourhood and has been hearing a lot of complaints. “It’s always difficult getting down (Mills) street,” she said. “I’ve heard a lot of complaining
so I thought maybe we need to do something.” The problem stems, she claimed, from the new seniors care facility on Mills Road. Morning deliveries to it and two other facilities nearby and staff shift changes present the busiest times, Warner explained, making it onelane traffic only at times.
“Driving down Resthaven … there is no room. It’s just unsafe.” She’s concerned about the safety of residents and children in the area due to traffic conflicts created when the new seniors care facility opened earlier this year. Please see: Solution must, page 4

NORTH SAANICH — August passenger traffic at Victoria International Airport increased 3.7% over the previous year and established a record volume for the month of August. Not only did it establish a record for August, it represented the most passengers moved through the airport in its history. “All markets were strong,” said Geoff Dickson, President and CEO of the
Victoria Airport Authority. “In particular the U.S. markets showed growth at 10 per cent. Strong load factors on domestic routes aided growth, as did the new WestJet Encore Vancouver service. Total passengers in August were 159,545. It has been a good year for tourism in the region as well as a continued improvement in the economy,” said Dickson File photo “And our numbers reflect WestJet services, among others, helped boost passenger traffic that.” — Submitted through Victoria International Airport.

This does not have to be the case provided proper care is taken. Elaborate cleaning measures are not necessary, just simple common sense precautions. Plastic lenses will not become scratched from normal use; they get scratched when exposed to abrasives. Today’s scratch coatings make plastic lens surfaces very durable.

Warner said she’s hoping a study will back up the anecdotal evidence she’s seeing in the neighbourhood — and come up with plans to fix the problem, such as limiting parking to only one side of the street and forcing employees of the new care facility to use its underground parking area more often, rather than parking on the streets. To avoid the traffic issues now, Warner said residents try to go around the busiest areas of Mills and Res-
thaven. She said she hopes the petition will spark action on the issue, which has been on the Town’s radar for some time through various letters and presentations to council. Mayor Larry Cross says council has asked staff to make some recommendations for potential solutions, yet he said those need to be found in cooperation with residents and the various seniors facilities in the neghbourhood. “We are listening,” Cross said of the petition while speaking
from Vancouver at the start of this week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities convention. “This needs to be a group effort and the Town cannot do it on its own.” He said there are possibilities to investigate, such as better use of existing on-street and underground parking, exploring areas of resident-only parking, time limits or use of one side of the street only. Those, Cross said, are only ideas at this stage and they each raise issues for residents, employees and visitors to the area.

OUR VIEW
Seek a simple traffic solution Residents in the Mills Road neighbourhood of Sidney have taken the bull by the horns and have petitioned the Town of Sidney to address what they see are serious traffic and parking issues along various streets in the area. Sixty-three people signed a petition, recently presented to council, and the municipality will look into its options. The area is busy — there are more than their share of seniors care and living facilities as well as local residences. Conflicts between pedestrians, residents, visitors, workers and delivery trucks are bound to happen. The best one might be able to do is try to mitigate the conflict by changing some shift, delivery or visitor hours. Anything more than that and residents might not like the results. There’s an idea floating around about making the streets (Mills Road in particular) oneside parking only. Do that, and the number of available spaces could be reduced significantly. And since drivers tend to park the closest they possibly can to their destination, the remaining areas will fill up fast. That has the potential to make parking — and its impact on traffic — much worse. That’s the result of an emphasis on the car so predominantly seen in the design of residential properties over the decades. Mayor Larry Cross says solutions will have to be creative, working with both area residents and the seniors facilities. He’s right, but limited in new options due to the confined space. Residents with multiple vehicles, visitors, workers and delivery vehicles are all jockeying for that ultimate parking spot. It might be just too late for Mills Road and environs. The Town has allowed the area to develop as it has, with the parking spaces it has today, with heavier traffic at the eastern end of the route, near Resthaven Drive. There doesn’t appear to many other options for parking. The solution, then, might fall to simple things such as timing issues and even just a bit of patience and planning ahead to take some of the other routes around higher-congestion areas during certain times of the day.

debt from previous political meddling. In August I reported that as many as 20 of B.C. Hydro’s existing private power purchase contracts will be cancelled or deferred. This was also seized upon to portray private power as the root of all evil, both financially and environmentally. In fact the attrition rate on these projects has always been about one out of three. This is what happens when the risks of expanding the provincial electrical grid are shared with private investors. These run-of-river and wind projects were promoted to maximize clean energy sources, as well as to spread the grid to remote areas. This was Gordon Campbell’s climate change strategy. Then came the gas boom. Clark seized upon liquefied natural gas exports as the key to future prosperity and the government soon declared burning gas “clean” as long as it facilitates LNG production. Bennett now acknowledges that gas-fired power plants are an option for the future. They are cheaper than hydro, small or large. Bennett’s two tasks are to supply industry with cheap power and get consumer rates under control. It looks as if the gas is being turned up and Site C is moving to the back burner.

Wrecking ball not welcome here
S
o the wrecking ball is headed to Sidney again. I am a person who has a fondness for old things. Objects, people and buildings, especially those that have a history and signifcant memories of people long gone. The Royal Canadian Air Force Station Patricia Bay Administration Building is one such structure; this building represents an important slice of Canadian historical records and indeed only missed Heritage status by a meager eight points.
In my opinion too many old sites have bit the dust over the years. Canada is a relatively new country and the backbone of a country is history — what and who went before and sacrificed to make this the place we live in today. Putting your life on the line, as countless serviceman did in 1940, deserves the highest respect. Furthermore, our grandchildren need to see these old places and equate the part they played in life, not to just see a record of the event on a computer or in
Readers respond: Airport path a welcome addition The new airport trail is a wonderful asset to the people of the Saanich Peninsula. It has been extremely well constructed with due diligence to detail. We are very fortunate to have an organization like the Victoria Airport Authority who put up a vast amount of money to build this most welcome paved trail. I am sure I speak for many local residents in both congratulating and thanking CEO Geoff Dickson and members of the Airport Authority board for their commitment to giving back to the community. It is a job well done and will be enjoyed and appreciated by many — one can already see residents using the trail every day. It is certainly a positive safety factor allowing bike and scooter riders with joggers and those who prefer to walk to do so away from the

These are lovely dogs, cheerful, friendly and well cared for by their owners who run them in Centennial Park most days. Centennial Park has, by default, become an off leash dog park.

There is a dog park on Lochside where it is suitable for dogs to race and romp and play. One reason I enjoy Centennial Park is the interaction with dogs and their owners. But dogs, no matter how well loved and cheerful, are dogs. Unless your dog is obedience trained to a reliable

McMurphy made the request more than a month ago, searching for email documentation of conversations between councillors and Ed Grifone of CTQ Consulting Ltd. of Kelowna — the company they hired to conduct a housing strategy implementation report. Coun. Craig Mearns had made a similar request back in March, but that was only for correspondence after a series of public meetings. McMurphy said her search was more broad and she used the FOI process to keep staff out of an awkward position between council’s two opposing sides. “The emails speak for themselves,” McMurphy said at council’s Sept. 9 meeting during a debate on her FOI request. She had made the request to determine if there had been any influence on the housing consultation process that could have

Copies can also be seen at the News Review’s Facebook page. changed the outcome, she explained. She specifically pointed out email confirmation of a conference call between Coun. Ted Daly and Grifone, done in the presence of municipal staff. It was this issue that led to three councillors walking out of an Aug. 19 council meeting, forcing its abrupt end. “It’s all about there being an aura of fear,” McMurphy said, “that we’re afraid to get this information on the table.” Mayor Alice Finall, who with McMurphy and Coun. Celia Stock are generally opposed to changes to the Dis-

trict’s housing policies, said she was concerned with what she saw in the emails out of the FOI request. “If I had done it,” Finall said, “it would had led to a censure motion against me. It’s an indication that the report and the consultant were compromised.” The council majority rejected that notion outright. Committee of the Whole meeting chair Craig Mearns ruled that McMurphy could not read into the record any of the content of Daly’s email to staff regarding his phone conversation with Grifone. “It’s all a tactic to delay (the report),” said Coun. Dunstan Browne. “It’s a despicable position. They want to discredit this housing consultation.” For his part, Daly said he ran for council to deal with “housing stuff” and defended the call he made to Grifone. “It was a five or six minute call,” he explained. “I’m not covering it up. The mayor even knew about it because Patrick (O’Reilly, the District’s

director of infrastructure services) told me that he had told her so.” Finall denied knowing about the call. Daly said the actions of McMurphy and Finall — and to a lesser extent Stock — have been “to discredit, discount and to cause fear.” In defence of her counterpart, Coun. Conny McBride began to read Daly’s email — something that McMurphy was prevented from doing earlier in the meeting. When she pointed out that this was unfair, Mearns was curt. “Life’s unfair,” he said. Daly’s email to O’Reilly appears to indicate he talked to Grifone about the format of an open house. As Stock proceeded to try to defend the line of questioning by Finall and McMurphy, Browne left the meeting (citing the late hour) followed by McBride who did so in protest of the minority group’s continued comments and questions. Nothing further was done with McMurphy’s report on her FOI request.

Taxpayers pay for Sidney blue boxes Continued from page 5
MMBC has promised to let interested municipalities continue to run their own recycling operations by acting as contractor, if that’s what they prefer. But the cities say the prices offered by MMBC are far too low to cover their costs and that other terms are unreasonable, starting with a take-it-or-leave-it signing deadline of Sept. 16. “I’ve never seen a contract come through as one-sided as what they’ve done with this,” Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan said. “The idea you’re going to come in and replace our programs and take over recycling is out of line – most municipalities are really concerned about that.” Cross added delegates at this week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities conference in Vancouver will debate the issue with an eye to push for more time to review the concept and seek change. Sidney collects its own blue boxes, said Cross, working through the Capital Regional District for disposal of recyclables. That service is paid for by taxpayers. Cities fear they’ll lose money if they continue providing the service their residents expect under the pricing structure MMBC has offered for recyclables. They can opt to decline a contract and MMBC will contract recycling pick up out as it sees fit, but mayors fear that may be

It won’t be cheap for opponents of wireless smart meters to keep their old analog electricity meters. B.C. Hydro says it will charge up to an extra $35 per month — $420 per year — on the roughly 60,000 smart meter holdouts for manual meter readings starting in December. Those who don’t want to pay that much have two cheaper options. They can accept a wireless smart meter at no charge. Or they can request a smart meter with the radio transmitter disabled for a one-time $100 charge and additional $20 per month fees starting April 1. Either way, those who opt to stay off Hydro’s smart grid will pay more. B.C. Hydro has sent letters to households that have refused smart meters outlining the options, along with a form to send back making their
choice. Those who make no choice will be assigned the $35-a-month default option. “If you do not confirm your choice, B.C. Hydro will not exchange the meter at your home, and the monthly cost for keeping an old meter will be added to your B.C. Hydro bill,” states the letter from Greg Reimer, executive vice-president of transmission and distribution. The proposed charges must still be approved by the BC Utilities Commission. B.C. Hydro says those who keep old analog meters aren’t guaranteed that will be an option indefinitely. Crews will replace analog meters that break or have expired accuracy seals as long as the existing stock of old meters lasts. Opposition group Citizens for Safe Technology calls the planned fees “extortionary” — noting they add up to as much as $25 million a year.

Thompson himself did an excellent job of reproducing Bowie’s music — albeit with his own interpretations and musical arrangements to suit his voice — which was not an absolute replication of the original singer. At times the band overpowered Thompson during the first half of the opening set, but he would overcome that and come through, vocally, on songs like Fame, Space Oddity and Absolute Beginners.

STeVeN HeyWooD editor@peninsula newsreview.com Turns out fans of the music of David Bowie are big fans of Syl Thompson and the musicians on stage at the Charlie White Theatre for A Night of Bowie. The audience gave the band a standing ovation following the Friday, Sept. 13 performance. For Syl Thompson, it was his first return to the stage in tribute of Bowie since the mid-1980s. Thompson, who resembles the British singer in both appearance and voice, joined with bass player Rob Begg and guitarist John Giliat as three of the originals from those early days when a Vancouver-based band put together a tribute to Bowie after the release of the album Let’s Dance. After 10 months of rehearsals with Marc and Rob Gawthrop (keyboards and synth), Sean Lang (drums) and Graham Howell (sax and flute), their hard work was very well-received. There were plenty of times when fans simply had to get up and dance the blues to the songs they were playing. Thompson selected a cross section of Bowie’s work, opening with Look Back in Anger and including favourites such as Absolute Beginners, Rebel Rebel and

So the show, auction and dinner next week are a way for us to fundraise for the Centre while still giving something back to our patrons.” Edgett added that the art that will be on silent auction during the evening is comprised of two and three dimensional pieces from local artists as well as others from all over Canada, induing Quebec. “We should a minimum of 13 pieces on auction including jewellery, sculpture, paintings and glass work,” he said. “There will really be something for everyone.”
An event being held this month at the Mary Winspear Centre will give the opportunity for patrons to give back to the centre while enjoying world-class art. The Winspear Art Show and Gala, which takes place on Saturday, Sept. 28, will feature a four course dinner, live musical entertainment and a silent auction boasting art from coveted artists like Donald Flather, Virgirl Sampson, Duncan Currie, Rick Silas and April MacQueen. “What a lot of people don’t realize is that unlike most community centres that are funded almost entirely by some level of government, the Winspear Centre only receives 27.5 per cent of our funding from the local municipalities,”

The dinner and silent auction bidding will kick off at 6 p.m. but there will be a free community reception and volunteer thank-you tea earlier in the day from 2 to 4 p.m. Anyone can attend. Coffee, tea and dessert will be served and people will be able to view the art pieces that will be on auction.

Panthers nab three points over weekend Devon MacKenzie News staff
A tired Peninsula Panthers hockey team limped out of Oceanside late Sunday afternoon after being bounced by the Generals 4 to 2, tagging the club with their first regulation loss of the young Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League season. The game against Oceanside completed a hectic weekend of three games in four nights and left no doubt that conditioning is something the team will have to work on in the next few weeks to come. “I thought we dragged our butts around the rink for the entire 60 minutes,” said Panther’s Operations Manager Pete Zubersky. “We were simply outworked and once the Generals had some momentum and thought that they could beat us, it was tough to slow them down.” Zack Smith and Connor Logan were the lone Panthers marksmen while Stephen Heslop blocked 33 of 37 shots and took the loss. The weekend slate of games started out a bit more hopeful when the Panthers travelled to the Archie Browning

The shot would beat Westshore Wolves goaltender Matt Chester, one of three that Logan tallied on the night in a 7-4 Panthers win. arena on Thursday evening to take on the Victoria Cougars. The game was highly entertaining and it was not until the second overtime period when the Cougars finally potted the goal that would end the game giving the Panthers a heartbreaking 6 to 5 loss.

Will Finlay, Cody Breitenstein, Sean Buchanan and Jackson Skerratt with two, all scored for the Panthers while Heslop was strong between the pipes blocking 49 of 53 shots. Some home cooking on Friday was certainly what the Pan-
thers needed as they dumped the visiting Westshore Wolves 7 to 4 at the Panorama Recreation Centre. The locals got off to a quick start when Skerratt opened the scoring only 1:02 into the game and the onslaught continued as they scored the next three goals and cruised to the win. Logan picked up the hat trick while Buchanan, Cole Glover and Reece Costain all chipped in with a goal. Rookie goaltender, Joey Karrer who hails from Smithers, B.C. made his first junior start and picked up the win, taming the Wolves by blocking 32 of 36 shots directed his way. The Panthers will take on the Wolves once again this Friday at Panorama with the puck set to drop at 7:30 p.m.
