Browne cites common sense North Saanich will consider a lot subdivision and $16,000 amenity fee Steven Heywood News staff

Saroop Dhatt returns a shot from fellow Canadian Wendy Qi-Wen Zhang during main draw action at the Freedom 55 Financial Open women’s tennis tournament at Panorama Recreation Centre on Tuesday. Zhang, ranked fifth in the tournament, would win the match 6-0, 6-1.

“If we approve this tonight, then it is something we can do.” So said North Saanich Councillor Dunstan Browne. On Monday night, in a 4-3 vote, council approved the subdivision of a property on Bourne Terrace. The owners applied to split the lot into two pieces. The second lot would either be sold or used to build a second house. The owners had been turned down for the same subdivision request in 2006 and district staff were again recommending against council approving it this time. Citing the municipality’s own strategic plan, staff reported the proposed change would not be in line with the neighbourhood’s form and character. Nor would the lot meet minimum size requirements for a second single family home. Browne, in reviewing images of the area, said it looked to him to be an abandoned piece of property. “If you just get a good house on there,” he said, “it would compliment the neighbourhood. In all my time on council, I’ve never seen a betDunstan ter example of where common sense should Browne prevail.” Coun. Elsie McMurphy said the state of someone’s property should not be used as a reason to violate the district’s own zoning bylaws. “I don’t think we should zone by eyesore,” she said. Coun. Celia Stock added creating a small lot size in that area opens the door for more. “We have (bylaws) and there’s a reason for them,” Stock said. Mayor Alice Finall said the subdivision of lots into smaller parcels is an overall council direcElsie tion that should be addressed in a full review of McMurphy North Saanich’s official community plan. Browne added the district’s own advisory commission recommended the subdivision should take place. As well, a map showing the immediate area depicts similar-sized lots between Bourne Terrace and Ebor Terrace that are split into two properties. Browne and councillors Ted Daly, Craig Mearns and Conny McBride supported a draft site-specific zoning amendment in addition to a community amenity contribution of $16,000 from the applicant. editor@peninsulanewsreview.com

Peninsula News in brief No to merger

NORTH SAANICH — Councillors with the District of North Saanich reiterated their opposition to a referendum on amalgamation in the upcoming municipal election. Mayor Alice Finall, responding to a second request by Amalgamation Yes, a group promoting the merger of all or some of the 13 municipalities in Greater Victoria, said council already made a decision not to hold a referendum. On June 16, council decided not to address the matter further.

NORTH SAANICH — Spectators and fans of vintage aircraft got a treat Tuesday as they witnessed the second day of flight by a restored deHavilland Mosquito. Victoria Air Maintenance has restored the Second World War-era plan to flying status for a private owner. The company’s website shows the various stages of the work — but it was this week’s test flights that had aviation buffs and even air force veterans out at the Victoria International Airport to catch a glimpse of the Mosquito. They weren’t disappointed as the pilots of the aircraft flew low and fast near the crowd on Canora Road during one of their passes of the airport’s runway. — Steven Heywood

Opponents gear up to battle pipeline Tom Fletcher Black Press

From Kitimat to Victoria, opponents are preparing to fight the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline proposal, after it was given federal approval Tuesday. A group of B.C. aboriginal communities issued a statement Tuesday vowing to go to court to protect their aboriginal title and rights on the land affected by the twin pipeline and tanker port for diluted bitumen on Douglas Channel. Aboriginal opponents in the North Coast region include the Haida, Gitgaat, Heiltsuk and Haisla First Nations, as well as communities in the B.C. Interior. Haisla Chief Councillor Ellis Ross,

actually pointed out to them and said ‘this is not following our case law principles, you’re making a mistake’,” Ross said Tuesday. “But they went ahead and did it. It is going to be court.” Northern Gateway project leader Janet Holder said she will continue to work to build on the 26 equity agreements the company has reached with aboriginal communities along the proposed pipeline route. Kitimat Mayor Joanne Monaghan said her council has made its opposition clear, after an April community vote that came down opposed to the project. “I think most of the councillors are of the opinion that they really don’t want to see bitumen going down the channel,” Monaghan said. “They

would rather have it refined and have a product that’s refined going down the channel.” B.C. NDP leader John Horgan said he wants resource development that creates jobs in B.C., particularly for aboriginal communities. Horgan said the B.C. Liberal government gave up its opportunity to oppose Northern Gateway. B.C. Environment Minister Mary Polak rejected that claim, saying the province gave a clear “no” in its final submission to the federal review panel. Discussions with Alberta, Enbridge and oil producers continue to see if B.C.’s conditions for land and ocean protection as well as a “fair share” of benefits for B.C. can be met, Polak said. – With files from Kitimat Northern Sentinel

Search continues for missing Sidney teen Steven Heywood News staff

Sidney North Saanich RCMP has issued a second appeal for the public’s help in tracking down a missing teen from Sidney. Mikayla Savage, 17, has not been seen by her family since May 19 and has not made contact with her family since May 22. According to police, her absence is out of the ordinary. She was observed in the company of pan handlers on the Saanich Peninsula and may be in the company of a male with

News staff

Thanks to a resident raising a stink, North Saanich council is asking its agriculture and parks commissions for advice on what to do about horse manure. Martin Enright, who lives on John Road, wrote to the council earlier this month about his issue with horse manure piling up on the road and on a nearby trail. He attended the June 16 meeting to ask local politicians to give his concerns more consideration. “I am concerned with only the one minute’s worth of discussion on the issue at your June 2 meeting,” Enright said. “We’re not trying to make trouble, just find a solution.” He added while his family has no problem with horses or stables in the area, it’s the mess left behind he wants addressed. Council was hardpressed to come up with a solution on

It’s biodegradable.” Mayor Alice Finall added asking owners to clean up the manure might be problematic in the difficulty in identifying whose business it is. Council discussed options and issues, including the benefits of manure in the garden. In the end, however,

they referred the matter to their citizen-led commissions for their recommendations.

OUR VIEW

Landfill more than a ‘dump’

Who knew going through the trash could be so fascinating? It’s one thing to get your annual property tax bill, see the line for garbage collection, pay what you owe and forget about it until next year. But it’s an entirely different experience seeing exactly where your money goes by taking a tour of Hartland landfill. This is where every piece of garbage that’s thrown in the trash in the Capital Region – and has been thrown in the trash for the last several decades – ends up. But Hartland is not a dump. It used to be, back in the 1950s, a pit where you’d go and dump your trash. Now, this is an engineered, sanitary landfill. This weekend’s Hartland Happening event at the landfill is a great opportunity for our region’s residents to not only get a lesson on what happens to our garbage, but to appreciate just how the Capital Regional District is managing to reduce the environmental impact of the landfill on our land, in our water and in the air we breathe. That latter component of the landfill’s operations is quite impressive, and something we in Greater Victoria should be proud of. Not every landfill has procedures to prevent greenhouse gas emissions coming off the pile of garbage from entering the atmosphere, or screens that prevent rainwater from seeping through the soil and down deep into the rotting waste to become hazardous leachate. It’s also slowly returning to its former state as a native forest, thanks to a reforestation plan that will eventually see the entire landfill become – on the surface – nothing more than thriving plants and animals. With all the ongoing heating discussions surrounding the CRD’s future plans on managing and treating our liquid waste, it’s nice to see our solid waste is in really good hands.

Question

of the week

YOUR VIEW

We loved Sidney’s beautiful makeover What a wonderful surprise to find ourselves walking around Sidney on a recent excursion to pick up a relative at the airport. A decade and a half later, we absolutely loved the makeover and especially the picturesque waterfront walkway embellished with provoking statues. Taking the Brentwood Bay ferry to the peninsula was akin to the commencement of a holiday. However, I wish we had somehow been warned about the McTavish interchange fiasco with its frenetic, frantic, uneasy access to the desired destination. After returning home, a visitor here from Sidney commented how the McTavish travesty is dangerous and to be avoided. So, basically after that experience, we were delighted to find ourselves in familiar territory in the new, improved Sidney wishing we had more time to explore. My only recommendation would be to have colourful banners/hanging baskets along Beacon Avenue to enhance the happy feelings of summer. We shall return soon. Gord and Nelly Byers Parksville Editor’s Note: Sidney has heard you, Gord and Nelly. The banners and flowers are up and in bloom.

Signs of the times

Is public will enough to stop the Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline project?

Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI) for upgrading the wayfinding signage related to the Information Center on Beacon Avenue. When the center on the highway closed, I understand the request started with the Saanich Peninsula Chamber of Commerce (who manage the center) and went to Destination Victoria who, in turn, placed the order with the MOTI. Staff changes in the MOTI delayed the project but we are happy to see the three new directional signs augmenting the existing information signage directing people into Sidney have been installed by Mainroad Contracting, the highway maintenance provider. Furthermore, new signage for the Washington State Ferry Terminal has been ordered and should be installed before the end of June. Thanks to town staff for making recommendations and addressing this issue. Finally, reports from some local business leaders indicate a 40 per cent increase in business this year over last year and are looking forward to a successful summer season.

Restaurant owners made connections Devon MacKenzie News staff

After 18 years running the popular Pier One Restaurant in Sidney, Kostas and Dafni Zobolas are ready to retire. “It was really perfect timing,” explained Kostas, who said that the two had been thinking about retiring when an offer came in to take over the restaurant’s space. “It’s wonderful because we will be able to go to Greece now for our daughter’s wedding,” he said, laughing that the couple purchased their plane tickets the day after they sold the restaurant. The husband and wife team and their roster of close-knit staff have evidently touched the hearts of many people throughout their years in business. “People who have heard about us retiring have come in and they hug me and they cry. Of course we have mixed feelings about leaving the business and all the amazing people we see every day but we’re staying in Sidney once we return from our vacation to Greece and we’ll stay in touch with everyone,” said Dafni.

Father Costas Economas, the Priest at the Greek Orthodox Church in Royal Oak and a family friend of the Zobolas’ said the family can be described with one word. “Philoxenia, which means the love of hosting or hospitality,

VICTORIA — B.C. Transit is exercising the concept of give and take for its summer bus schedule. As of Monday, June 23, routes that service the University of Victoria, Camosun College and Royal Roads University will see slightly reduced schedules. The seasonal adjustment is made to conserve transit hours during the less popular summer months to be able to maximize service hours during peak ridership when post-secondary schools are in session. On the other hand, a new service to Thetis Lake is being introduced as part of the No. 53 Atkins Road bus route. The side trip, a suggestion from transit riders who responded to a public consultation last fall, will run until Sept. 1. For the summer season, service is also being increased on Routes 75 and 81 to accommodate extra passengers heading to Sidney, Brentwood Bay and Swartz Bay. Also affecting the West Shore is a discontinuation of the No. 49 Langford Exchange bus due to low ridership. Service on that run has been picked up on other routes. For more details on these and other service adjustments, pick up a Rider’s Guide on board any bus, visit bctransit.com/regions/vic or call the BusLine at 250-382-6161. — News staff

Feast of Fields at Kildara Farms in the fall North Saanich farm to host annual agricultural fundraiser Steven Heywood News staff

Get ready to enjoy the excellent wine and produce grown on the Saanich Peninsula and southern Vancouver Island at the 17th annual Feast of Fields at North Saanich’s Kildara Farms.

Hosted by FarmFolk CityFolk, this is a fundraiser for agricultural initiatives directed towards food security challenges. Spokesperson Jennifer Freeman says the event travels to different Island farms every year and this time, they’ve selected Kildara Farms, a working farm that will give visitors a picture of where local food comes from. “Kildara Farms is a family-owned farm that lends itself to a wonderful Feast of Fields event,” she said.

Lobbing for food security

FarmFolk CityFolk uses donations from their annual fundraising events for a variety of food security issues. One of their main efforts, says spokesperson Jennifer Freeman, is ensuring a secure supply of seeds. They have helped build the B.C. Seed Network, ensuring farmers have access to seeds that are not held by corporations. The Network also conducts research on such issues as finding high-yield seeds that grow well in various parts of the province. The organization is also part of the lobby to protect B.C.’s agricultural land reserve and efforts to ensure farmland stays in the ALR. Feast of Fields events are held on Vancouver Island, the lower mainland and Okanagan.

“There’s a working farm with land, horses, pigs a new indoor event area and more.” The farm, she continued, is known for being the largest producer of organic baby salad

greens in the province, supplying grocery stores like Thrifty Foods. Because Kildara is a working farm, there’s no direct parking on site. Instead, said Free-

“There haven’t been too many of those lately,” he joked, pressing harder on the metal, perhaps to make a point. As Infiniti Director of Performance, Vettel is truly playing a role in the development of future road products, rather than merely offering his name as a celebrity endorsement. He talked enthusiastically about the new compact, performance-oriented Q30, which should see the light late next year in Europe and a little later in Canada. The 328-horsepower 3.7-litre V6 Q50S we were riding in also benefitted from a little of his input. He’s clearly looking forward to Infiniti giving the go-ahead to the Q50 Eau Rouge concept, which features the Nissan GT-R’s growling 560-horsepower twin-turbo V6. Another corner loomed and I leaned into the door, as he barely slowed from the rapid pace we had zipped along the straight. “Your cornering has improved since last year,” I offered cheekily.

“Thank you, I think I’ve got the apexes about right,” he grinned. Hours earlier, it’s doubtful he had even heard of the tricky track, nevermind driven it. Harkening back to his references to happy endings, I reminded him that after driving with me last year he had enjoyed nothing but success. “That’s right . . . it’s all down to you,” he said with what I believed was a thoroughly genuine smile of appreciation. The end was nigh. Time flies when you are having fun: our hot lap and friendly chat took less than four minutes. Last Sunday, he enjoyed only his second podium finish of the year taking third place at the Montreal Grand Prix. You’re welcome, Seb. Same time next year, in the Eau Rouge?

As Infiniti’s Director of Performance, Vettel is truly playing a role in the development of future road products.

Four-time F1 champ Sebastian Vettel got behind the wheel of a kart when he was just three-and-a-half years old and was racing at age eight. Should we encourage teens to follow that example, as a way of learning about vehicle speed and control before getting their first license at 16? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer.

Safety Tip: As schools begin their summer break, there will be more children around the roads. Road safety is not always top of mind for kids, so make sure you pay extra attention, especially around playgrounds where speed limits remain in effect year-round.

extends oil change intervals. The GT also comes with electric power-assist steering (EPAS), an upgraded braking system with vented discs all around and an enhanced suspension. GT buyers could also add a California Special appearance package and a Brembo brake and wheel package. A six-speed manual transmission was standard and automatic option was also a six-speed. This automatic has a grade-assist or “hill mode” feature that prevents sixth gear selection on a steep up-hill drive, plus engine braking going down a hill. There is another limited production edition of Mustang, the priciest and speediest pony of them all, the audacious Shelby GT500. Power comes from a supercharged 5.8-litre that can produce 650 horsepower and

it can also deliver over 600 ft-lb of tire-smoking torque. On the inside, a Mustang offers twoplus-two seating, which translates to limited leg and head room for the rear seat occupants. While Mustang’s trunk is not huge, it’s a little bigger and easier to access than the trunk in arch-rival Chevrolet Camaro. Both the coupe and the convertible editions of Mustang claim very good crash test safety ratings. Consumers Reports gives it “recommended buy” status and reliability has been average to better-than-average, with the V6 engine versions being slightly more dependable. The 2012 model year brought the re-introduction of a Boss 302 coupe edition, with a high-output 5.0-litre V8, plus a new premium trim level of the V6 edition. Selectable electric power-assisted steering, with comfort, sport and normal settings, also became standard on all models. The 2013 Mustang got lighting that is even more distinctive and some minor exterior tweaking. A new SelectShift Automatic transmission with a manual shift feature was a significant mechanical upgrade and the six-speed manual gearbox also gained a hill start assist feature. An iconic American car, the Ford Mustang offers classic styling yet can also be a reliable and reasonably priced used sports car and a great driving experience. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

The 2011 model year edition of the Ford Mustang, coupe and convertible, came with a more menacing frontal appearance and under the hood new engines produced more power with less fuel. So, you could also call it the “meaner and leaner” revamp. Appearance changes on the 2011 included new headlights and revised lower fascias, fenders and grille, plus a power-dome hood that allows additional air cooling to the Mustang’s new engines. At the back, new threelight LED lamps sequentially signal a turn, reminiscent of the muscle car years. The Mustang GT convertible models came with improved body rigidity with 12 per cent more lateral stiffness versus the previous year. In addition to newly strengthened structural members, under its hood you’ll also find a (race-style) tower-to-tower strut brace. Even the new base 3.7-litre V6 engine packs a punch as it can deliver 305 horsepower and can rev to 7000 rpm. Its rated city/highway fuel economy is an impressive 10.7/6.4 L/100km. And its power-to-weight ratio is almost double the previous base engine offering. Moving up a trim the Mustang GT has a 5.0-litre V8 under its hood. This engine is also a four-valve, all-aluminum engine, only this one is can pump-out 412 horsepower. And sounds great doing it! City/highway fuel consumption is rated at 11.8/7.9 L/100km and a larger (cast aluminum) oil pan also

Our classic and collector car expert continues today with the final part of his four-part series on the restoration of public relations executive Laura Ballance’s rare 1967 Ford Mustang T5 by 360 Fabrication in Abbotsford. The restoration story of Laura Ballance’s Mustang T5 has been interesting to follow and one that is not typical of this kind of project. Before I get carried away telling you what a T5 actually is, I have to report that with the help of the team at 360 Fabrication, suppliers White and Peters, BASF paint and the 200 plus hours of paint preparation, application, wet sanding and polishing by

master painter Darren Emmerson, the car is finished! And here is the best part, it’s on time and under budget, almost unheard of in days gone by let alone today. So what is so special about a T5 Mustang? – The Ford Mustang could not be sold in Germany as a Mustang because a truck manufacturer there and later a motorcycle manufacturer owned the trademarked name Mustang. Both manufacturers offered to sell the rights to Ford for $10,000 each but Ford declined and decided the solution would be to use the initial Mustang project name T5 as the solution. With all of the changes required, they should have probably paid the Follow us at:

$10,000. With there being so many U.S. armed forces bases in Germany, export models were highly sought after. Laura had no idea how rare her car was until she decided to embark on this project and began doing her research. The T5 registry has informed Laura that of the 453 Mustang Hardtop T5s built in 1967, hers is one of the few examples ordered with a vinyl roof, which is listed as an option in the V.I.N tag. There are only two T5s known to exist in Canada, hers and one in Ontario and only 45 have survived in various states of condition worldwide. It is going to be a busy

summer for Laura, her two daughters and the Mustang. I suspect her father never in his wildest dreams would have thought the car would end up as a show car let alone become a family affair involving three generations of his family. The T5 will debut at the Vancouver Classic Car Show and Auction at the PNE on June 21 and 22. Then it will head south in July to the Mustang Roundup in Bellevue, Washington, the world’s largest Mustang meet. The car is entered in the Concours restoration class and should place well. Because this is the 50th anniversary of the Mustang the invitations are pouring in, the most recent one from an event in North Carolina, Laura still has a day job so unfortunately will miss that one. She will finish the summer off at the Luxury SuperCar weekend at VanDusen Gardens in September. The car will be viewed at least 30 or 31 times in a month, gracing the walls of garages and repair shops all over North America featured in a 2015 Ford calendar. This completes a restoration project with a happy conclusion. nmatthews@hagerty.com

Black honoured by UVic Pauline Rafferty and David Black enhanced programs Don Descoteau News staff

If there’s one thing David Black embodies, it’s organization. The owner of Black Press — which publishes this newspaper and dozens more in B.C. and North America — accepted an honourary Doctor of Laws degree. As he does with any project he’s embarked upon over the years, he takes it very seriously. “It’s pretty special to be honoured from a university like this,” he said from his home office in Oak Bay. “They’ve had a lot of growth since I’ve been in Victoria.” While he admitted to being a “little bit embarrassed” to receive the honour — former Royal B.C. Museum CEO Pauline Rafferty received her honourary Doctor of Laws during convocations this month — he feels pride at being a part of the growth at UVic. Having based his growing newspaper group in Greater Victoria in the late 1980s, Black was among a group of leaders from the local business and academic communities who brainstormed the makeup and focus of UVic’s school of business in the mid-2000s. “I was lucky enough to be involved from the very beginning,” he

develop young entrepreneurs throughout B.C. as a way to strengthen the province’s economy. “I’ve met a lot of these kids over the years. They’re terrific,” he said of the scholarship winners. Rafferty, who guided the museum from 2001 until retiring in 2012, called the honourary doctorate a great and “very humbling” honour. She, too, has built a relationship with UVic, through helping develop the cultural sector leadership program for the Division of Continuing Studies. “Over the many years, the university and the RBCM had a very close partnership and I think that continues today, on many fronts,” she said.

Q: WHAT SHOULD I CONSIDER BEFORE PURSUING A CAREER IN REAL ESTATE?

Do you have enough savings to cover your learning curve? – It’s recommended that new agents have two years’ income put away when they start in the business.

In any industry, it’s natural for people who’ve been around for a long time to feel they have the edge on someone new to the business. In real estate sales, the same scenario applies. But is it as simple as saying experience is everything? Perhaps not. Technology has definitely changed the way Realtors do business, especially from the standpoint of forwarding information about new listings to potential buyers, or moving the appropriate paperwork back and forth between agents and legal professionals. But some things haven’t changed, say Deborah and Roy Coburn, a husband and wife team who have been in the business for 26 and 24 years, respectively. “We’re a person-to-person service,” Deborah says. “That’s always the way we’ve operated.” While she admits most buyers today get their first glimpse of a home online, she says, it still comes down to working with clients in person to really get a handle on their real estate needs. She cites three separate out-oftown client couples who found “the perfect home” online in Greater Victoria, only to arrive and discover in a showing that the property wasn’t at all what they had in mind or envisioned. “In some ways, technology can only go so far,” she says. While many listing agents send information on homes to buyer’s agents via email, Roy finds it helpful to pick up the phone and call

Are you a selfstarter? – If you’re good at time management and don’t mind doing a lot of legwork before getting paid, you may be right for the profession.

Do you like to learn? – The education process for Realtors is ongoing and mandatory. Courses on a variety of topics are regularly offered by the Victoria Real Estate Board.

GREATER VICTORIA MARKET UPDATE »

Don Descoteau News staff

Don Descoteau/News staff

Deborah and Roy Coburn have been selling real estate more than 20 years. While technology has changed the way Realtors operate, they stress the importance of face-to-face communication. his counterparts to chat about “the nuances of a home” that one might not pick up in a photo. At the other end of the scale, Taylor McMullen, 24, is in his fifth month as an agent. He’s enjoyed some success already, partially due to building a new Internet marketing program for himself and his father, longtime Victoria-area Realtor Michael McMullen. Taylor, who also speaks Mandarin, has tapped into the Asian immigrant market, largely through his online work. In that respect, he views technology as something not to be feared, but to be embraced, a characteristic he says he shares with other younger professionals. “I think the difference between (younger and older Realtors) is

Deborah chuckles at a fringe strategy making the rounds lately, that of giving home evaluations without setting foot on a person’s property. Whether representing clients looking to buy or sell, agents’ responsibility is huge, she says, given the need to know everything about a house. “When it comes down to it, it still requires a relationship with us.” One thing agents of any age may find today more so than in past years, McMullen says, is that younger buyers tend to be less patient and more focused on saving money than being loyal. “I find younger people are always chasing the better deal or the quick response (from a Realtor). You’ve got to be so quick with everything.” ddescoteau@vicnews.com

we grew up in a period of change. Everything is changing so quickly and we’re easily able to adapt to change,” he says. “There’s still lots of risk-takers out there, but I’d say the average young person is more likely to take risks and change.” While taking full advantage of technology to secure and work with clients can work well, McMullen admits it’s just one tool at his disposal. But he admits much of his business has come from referrals, door knocking and cold calling: good oldfashioned personal contact. “Real estate’s all about relationships. The majority of your business will come from referrals no matter how much marketing you do,” he says. The Coburns couldn’t agree more.
