Brewmaster Peter Schulz, Jorden Foss and James Garbutt celebrate the opening of their New Westminster micro-brewery, Steel & Oak. Visitors to the lounge will be able to try the beers they’re offering, then take them home in giant “growler” bottles. The brewery plans to add a bottling line later this year.

brewery in New West since Labatt closed its giant plant in Sapperton has taken Foss and Garbutt almost a year. Much of that time was spent wading through four levels of government bureaucracy and spending money without any revenues coming back into the business. “The biggest shock is the sticker prices for equipment,” said Foss, who gave up his job in audio production to dedicate himself fulltime to the brewery.

End-of-school traditions have been casualties of the teachers strike, but parents at John Robson elementary kept one alive. Every year Grade 7s graduating from Robson have been treated to a trip to the water slides at Cultus Lake and another to Loon Lake Camp north of Maple Ridge. Those were cancelled because of the strike. But their parents made sure the last group to graduate from Robson before it falls to the wrecking ball weren’t deprived of a third tradition. That would be the annual grad ceremony. This one, though, wasn’t at the school. Isabel Downey said a group of parents were chatting earlier this month, bemoaning the loss of the three milestone events the students had been anticipating all year. “[The students] don’t understand because of the politics,” said Downey. “My son was missing out on these things. Last year, my other son got to go to Loon Lake, got to go to the water slides and go to the grad ceremony. So my son got to see his sibling do all these things and he doesn’t get to.” see CEREMONY, A5

Urban Academy wants to grow up

Submits plans to city to build $14.4 million expansion next to Robson Manor Grant Granger

ggranger@newwestnewsleader.com

Like New Westminster, Urban Academy’s density is growing and it needs to find a way to house it. The private school has submitted plans to the city to build an expansion behind its current base of operation at Third Street and Royal Avenue. The budget is $14.4 million, and includes the purchase of an eight-unit apartment building on Manitoba Street built in the 1950s. It would be demolished to make room for the expansion. The plan is to build a 44,600-square-foot facility next to historic Robson Manor, a 10,000-square-foot 1935 heritage house which Urban bought in 2006. It currently houses the school’s administration and early grades. The expansion would include an 8,900-square-foot gym, three storeys of classrooms and underground parking. The school currently has 160 students from kindergarten

ARTIST RENDERING/CONTRIBUTED

Urban Academy plans to purchase an eight-unit building behind their current facility at Robson Manor for an expansion project that would allow the school to have all its classes at one location.

to Grade 12. Grades 6 to 12 students, however, are taught in a space leased from the Royal City Christian Church at Sixth Street and Eighth Avenue. Urban Academy estimates by the time the expansion is built it will have 250 students and will grow to 450 by 2022 with two classes per grade every school year. “We’re growing and we’re outgrowing Robson Manor,”

said Robson head of school Cheryle Beaumont, former New Westminster secondary principal and Langley school district superintendent. “We’ve met our enrolment targets every year for the last three years. Every year we’ve set to double the class we’ve doubled the class.” Beaumont said the school has thrived because it appeals to families looking for a solid and rigorous education that is arts

based. “We’ve created a culture.” She added its growth won’t necessarily be helped by the current discord in public education. Urban Academy and the city will have to agree on a heritage plan that would retain and restore the exterior, and some interior elements of Robson Manor before the expansion can proceed. Heritage guidelines say the new

building should be compatible, distinguishable and respectful of Robson Manor. A city staff report to council said the initial plans meet those criteria. It also identified student dropoff and pick-up as an issue that needs to be addressed because 60 per cent of Urban Academy’s students live outside New Westminster. The school is willing to provide the current tenants in the apartment building at least six months’ notice. It’s also willing to consider relocation compensation, rent reduction and relocation assistance. The report by the school’s consultants said the expansion will be 70 per cent bank financed and 30 per cent from parent equity and a community bond. A neighbourhood open house on the proposal is expected to be held either this summer or in the fall. A presentation will also be made to the Queen’s Park Residents Association. A public hearing isn’t likely to be held until late this year or early 2015. An initial project schedule has construction starting in March 2015 and occupancy by August 2016.

Brewery aims to add bottled beer in the fall ⫸

continued from FRONT PAGE

“You can’t buy used equipment anymore because craft brewing is so popular.” To start, Steel & Oak has four 1,700-litre stainless steel fermenting tanks, but they’re already planning to expand with two more 5,100-litre tanks en route. They’re also awaiting delivery of eight 200-litre oak barrels to bring a different flavour

to some of their beers. Foss said Steel & Oak’s business plan was built on producing 50,000 litres of beer a year, but they’ll likely double or triple that. A bottling line will be added in the fall. Since the tanks were installed in the back garage of a former auto body shop, brewmaster Schulz has been experimenting with recipes that will bring a unique

experience to the booming craft beer scene. One of those is a red pilsner. Another is a smoked Hefeweizen. “We’re able to play around a bit more,” said Foss. “For us it’s more about finding a niche with different styles of beers.” Setting up in their hometown has also created opportunities for Foss and Garbutt. Almost every pub in the city is eager to get their

beer on tap. They’re already in three and more are scheduled to take delivery of their kegs. But with that comes more than a little pressure to live up to expectations. “There’s no point in our lives we’ll ever be more popular,” said Foss. “But then that weighs on you. People are relying on us. They want to be proud of us.” Just as Foss and Garbutt are

proud to be bringing a brewery back to New West. “We want people to say this is the best beer around, and it’s from New West,” said Foss. • Steel & Oak is located at 1319 Third Ave., below the Third Ave. overpass.

Two seniors hit by scams Two New Westminster seniors fell victim to phone scams on the same day last week. Police said in one case the victim got a call June 19 from a man saying he was his son and needed money to pay for damages from an accident he’d had after a rock concert in Victoria. The man said he was going to send a friend to meet the victim to get the money. Police said the victim went to an Uptown bank and withdrew “a significant amount of cash” and gave it to the so-called friend at a nearby place. The victim spoke with his actual son later that day and

found out he’d never asked for the money. Police have requested surveillance video from the area. In the second incident, the victim got a call from a man claiming to be her grandson. The man said he needed money to pay for damages from a car crash in Victoria. She was also told to meet a friend of the grandson, who would deliver the money to him. The next day she talked to her grandson and realized she’d been the victim of fraud. The first suspect is described as a South Asian male, about 35, 5’8” wearing a maroon

shirt and tinted prescription sunglasses. The other was a black man about 25 who went by the name of Brian. He was 6’2” to 6’4” and wearing a black leather jacket with pockets that snapped shut, black dress pants, black shoes and jewelry. The NWPD is advising seniors to verify the identity of people claiming to be their relatives over the phone and asking for money. If unsure they should call the police department at 604-525-5411. Anyone with any information should ask for Const. Shannon McLeod or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Ceremony ‘turned out lovely’ ⫸

continued from FRONT PAGE

So instead of grumbling the parents decided to do something about it. Parent advisory council (PAC) chair Serena Trachta told them that while the field trips were out of the question maybe they could still cobble together a grad ceremony. The PAC provided some funds for it and Downey and fellow parents Kim Nezezon and Jeannie Chown hit the phones for the rest.

The community came through. La Perla Ballroom at River Market provided the space, Stefano’s restaurant and Safeway the food, and Starbucks the coffee, all at big discounts. “It’s kind of nice local businesses are willing to help out these students missing out on these activities,” said Downey. About 30 students, two striking teachers and an

educational assistant came to the ceremony along with about 90 friends and family Monday afternoon. “The ceremony turned out lovely,” said Downey. “The parents were really appreciative. “These children have been affected by the strike action. The strike affects [everyone], but this is a milestone year for them and we hope we were able to help with some closure on their elementary years.”

PHOTO OF THE WEEK: Karen Schmidt took this picture in the garden of her Sapperton home, featuring a ladybug on her echinacea.

Science deficit Two weights, two measures. Whichever is more convenient. At least that is how it seems Prime Minister Stephen Harper deals with science, scientists and their advice. What other explanation can there be for Harper saying in a CBC interview, “it’s a tragedy when people start to go off on their own theories and not listen to scientific evidence,” in reference to parents who for various reasons do not allow their children to receive immunization shots Let’s take a pause to let that bit of irony sink in. Harper has consistently worked to eliminate or, at the very least, impede the development of scientific research, eliminate the objectivity of science from any debate by muzzling scientists, cutting budgets and just plain ignoring their findings and advice. More than 2,000 government scientists have lost their jobs over the past five years. The overall effect is less science being done, fewer scientists to tell the public of the importance or implications of their work. Canada’s fiscal deficit may shrink a bit, but our knowledge deficit grows. Facts can be problematic, a nuisance, a hinderance, especially when he has an agenda and the only thing between Harper and the realization of his agenda is science. Knowledge of our environment, and the deplorable condition it is in, is particularly troubling for Harper’s agenda. So gone is most of the funding for Environment Canada, Fisheries and Oceans, as well as for the Polar Environment Atmospheric Research Laboratory, and the Experimental Lakes Area. If we don’t know how mismanaged and mistreated the environment is, then we won’t have to lie awake worrying. —Penticton Western News

Will it be a Coté-Wright matchup? Whoa there, young fella. What’s the rush? That might be the thought running through Mayor Wayne Wright’s mind these days. It’s still almost five months until the November civic election, and already Jonathan Coté, the councillor who announced his intentions last week, wants his job. Wright’s been mayor since 2002. This is his fourth term. Notably, in the last election in 2011 he said something along the lines of “Just give me one more term, folks. There’s a couple things I’d like to get done (Pier Park, Anvil Centre). Then, I’ll step aside.” More recently, before Coté made his official announcement, Wright said his plans depended upon who was in the race. His concern, he said, was leaving the city in ill-suited hands. He wanted to ensure things kept moving in the right (Wright?) direction. Whatever happens this fall, Coté and Wright are different animals in many ways. Wright has been New West’s best cheerleader for the last 12

Chris Bryan years, pumping its tires all day. When it was down, he cheered. And now that it’s rising, he hasn’t stopped, only now it’s like See? What did I tell you? He’s got charm, he leads with his heart and he gets things done. Coté’s a quieter, less ebullient sort. While he lacks Wright’s mega-watt charisma, he inspires confidence with the way he’s diligent, well-studied on the issues, and weighs his words carefully. Under Wright’s tenure the city has focused on re-shaping New West as a double-edged city: strong on history but progressive and modern in policy (housing, homelessness) and infrastructure (Pier Park, Anvil Centre). For his part, Coté has his finger on the pulse of progressive cities, having studied some of the best, most innovative things cities are doing, as a city councillor

and through his SFU urban studies coursework. If anything, he’d seek to extend on what Wright started. In that way, it’s hard to imagine a better successor for Wright. But hey, that’s still almost five months off. If I were in Wright’s shoes, leaving the mayor’s chair would be the last thing I’d want to do. Look at the guy—he’s having the time of his life. He may be 70-ish now, but he looks healthy and has an unfailing passion for the city. With the new Pier Park, plans next year to dismantle half the parkade and the recent rezoning of the massive Larco parking lot on the river, his longterm vision for regaining the waterfront is coming together. And what job could measure up to city building? No, it’s doubtful he’s ready to leave. But leave he will. Why announce now, though? What’s the fun in that? No one wants to be a lame duck. As soon as he says the words, he’ll be treated differently. “Been a pleasure working with you, sir…” “It’s July, you insolent

whippersnapper! I’m here ’til the swearing in of my successor. That could be December!” So he’ll keep us guessing. Meantime, Coté isn’t wasting time. As he did when he first ran for city council in 2005, he’s raising the bar in this city for campaigning. He’s got a splashy website with a promo video, he’s unveiled the planks of his platform, and his volunteers have already been out on the streets. In 2005, I recall seeing Coté and his supporters out early one morning near the onramp to the Queensborough Bridge waving and holding up Coté signs, which highlighted the “X” for his middle name Xerxes—so easy to remember on election day. The original Xerxes the Great, incidentally, ruled Persia back around 486 BC or so. The name means “Ruling over heroes.” He came to power at the tender age of 36, just a few months older than Coté is now. By historical accounts, Xerxes took over from his father. And the transition, so it is written, was a smooth one. editor@newwestnewsleader.com

COMMENT

Invite people Uptown, but supports needed Re: Should we risk inviting people Uptown? (Column, NewsLeader, June 6) When you talk Uptown, you need to be specific as to which part. The area between Fifth and Sixth avenues on Sixth Street has very different dynamics than locations south or north of that block. To my knowledge, the seating arrangements near Starbucks were changed specifically to deter smoking and “loitering” at the main entrance to the mall. North of Sixth Avenue on Sixth Street has no such issues that I am aware of, and south of Fifth Avenue is totally different too. So my comments here are about a specific part of Uptown. Loitering, i.e. “the act of remaining in a particular public place for a protracted time without an apparent purpose” is to be distinguished from getting to know one’s neighbours or enjoying the space. New Westminster has its fair share of people challenged by mental illness, addiction, and homelessness. The Sixth Street and Belmont locus is an area many of them frequent, whereas years ago Downtown New Westminster was experiencing this phenomenon.

I agree that more public spaces are a good idea, but any initiative in that direction should be coupled with additional resources for serving some of the hurting people we see in the area. The Lookout Emergency Aid Society’s has excellent outreach programs in New West, thanks in large part to the efforts of Dave Brown, who I understand is stepping up activity in Uptown as much as he can. More resources for Dave and his programs such as “i’s on the Street” would be a good idea. David Brett —online comment newwestnewsleader.com

A LESSON IN COMPROMISE Re: A letter from a parent (Letters, NewsLeader, June 11) I admire Fraser Barton and the students for standing up for what they believe regardless of what it might cost. If these students understand what “compromise” means, why can’t the adults really understand what it means? Are we teaching them “My way or no way”? Here is short example of compromise: During the 1980s, the president of the company where I was working called a meeting

Question of the Week Bob McHugh in his review of the Lincoln MKC reveals there is a new technology called “park out assist” which gets your vehicle out of the tight parking sport that the “park assist” shoehorned you into! Is this kind of technology in danger of diminishing a driver’s control skills? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer. QUESTION

OF THE WEEK!

Safety Tip: As the summer BBQ season and Canada Day celebrations kick off, it’s important to remember how deadly of a combination drinking and driving can be. Arrange for a designated driver or use other options to get home safely.

Odyssey a very clean machine Driveway

The 2014 Honda Odyssey is ready to take you on your next big messy adventure with the kids and it can help you clean up too. The van features the world’s first in-car vacuum system called the HondaVac. It comes complete with a replaceable filter, canister bag, nozzle accessories, and a hose capable of reaching the front seats. I feel a family email coming on. My sister-in-law Cristina has an Odyssey van and has been transporting a full size shop vac and leaf blower around for years. My two nieces make quite a mess, unlike my tidy offspring. Just kidding. But before we get into an interior clean-up, let’s cast

an eye over the vehicle’s exterior looks. It has a stylish hood that sweeps down towards the grille. The headlights are angled up and back giving the profile a sculpted look. Honda refers to the overall design as a lightning bolt. Not only does it provide an exclusive appearance, but also adds increased visibility for third row passengers. Very nice interior, everything laid out nicely. So many bells and whistles you almost would want to run through a checklist before driving. Eight-passenger seating with a total passenger volume of 4,887 litres, whatever, that means. And all those passengers get thirsty so Honda put in 15 cup holders. The third row is a one-motion 60/40

Summer school pickets next: BCTF Tom Fletcher Black Press

Teacher pickets will target locations where summer school is being carried out if they don’t have a settlement of their strike by June 30. B.C. Teachers’ Federation president Jim Iker announced that decision Wednesday, as he prepared for the first meeting

with B.C. Public School Employers’ Association since a full-scale strike began June 17. The meeting has been characterized as “exploratory talks” dealing with possible mediation. BCPSEA has applied to the Labour Relations Board for summer school

offerings to be declared essential services, if they are “secondary remedial programs provided to students who have failed a secondary level course.” Summer iker programs for elementary school students, international students or

secondary students trying to improve a passing grade would not be protected by an LRB order, meaning the majority of summer programs wouldn’t go ahead. Iker said the union is also considering the plight of B.C.’s five modified calendar schools, which have three month-long breaks instead of the

traditional summer vacation. They are in the middle of their final three-month term and are facing more disruption than other schools. BCPSEA has also applied for essential service protection so they can resume operation. Iker said if there is no deal by June 30, BCTF

negotiators would be available to continue talks, rather than take the summer off as they have done in previous disputes. The two sides remain far apart on wages and benefits, with a longrunning dispute over class size and special needs support levels going back to court this fall. twitter.com/tomfletcherbc

Premier living at Polygon’s Kingston House Heritage-style elegance is at top of mind at Polygon’s Kingston House, a collection of two-bedroom apartment residences in a master-planned community that is inspired by an Ivy League legacy. “You can move in this summer,” says sales manager Judy Rohatyn. “With payments from $899 a month, this is a great opportunity for first-time buyers to purchase a home in the South Surrey market.” Kingston House is the first apartment collection at Polygon’s Harvard Gardens, a master-planned community that is also

close to top schools, golf courses, shopping and dining. “There’s nothing like this anywhere else,” Rohatyn says. “Many parents of first-time buyers recognize the great value and are bringing their kids to Kingston House to assist them in buying their first home.” The homes at Kingston House are spacious and inviting, with over-height ceilings on the main and fourth floor, generous patios or covered decks, and huge windows. Engineered stone countertops in the kitchen are complemented by flat-panelled cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances. Rich wood laminate

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

flooring is featured throughout the main areas, with lush carpeting in the bedrooms. Spa-like bathrooms have designerselected imported porcelain tile flooring, engineered stone countertops and a contemporary patterned hand-set ceramic tile tub and shower surround with marble and glass mosaic tile accents. The master ensuite adds another touch of luxury with dual porcelain undermount sinks (most plans) and polished chrome accessories. Outside, the architecture is inspired by the East Coast, with brick cladding, natural wood soffits and black metal detailing. Homeowners at Kingston House will also have access to The Rowing Club; a private residents-only clubhouse featuring over 9,000 sq.ft. of resort-style amenities such as an outdoor pool and spa, gymnasium, fitness facilities, a screening room and other amenities. A resident concierge will be available to assist with your every need, and two fully furnished suites are available for out-of-town guests. Two-bedroom homes start at $259,900.

The Cottages at Seabright Farm are located just minutes from the Lower Mainland, but you’ll easily be able to put your worries aside at your historically inspired cottage in a gorgeous ocean-view location. Tons of amenities are just around the corner, including the Point Roberts Marina.

Feeling the breeze at The Cottages at Seabright Farm By Kerry Vital

The Cottages at Seabright Farm is the largest and newest residential project in Point Roberts. Construction recently started, and Lower Mainland residents are flocking to it to purchase their own private piece of paradise. “You can purchase an ocean-view cottage for less than the price of an average condominium in Vancouver,” says Wayne Knowles of Orca Shores LLC, the project’s

developer. Seabright Farm is comprised of 58 lots spread across 62 acres of gently sloping south-facing waterfront. The large lots (1/4 to 1/2 an acre) offer privacy along with the great views and are located in three distinct zones: the Bluff, the Meadows and the Woodlands. Seabright Farm will also have a barn/community centre, greenhouse, outdoor swimming pool and hot tubs, sauna, community vegetable and flower gardens,

and orchards. The trails are perfect for running, cycling or horseback riding, and offer direct access to the beach. Because of both the elevation and south slope of the entire property, you’ll find a gorgeous view no matter where you purchase. The cottage plans range from 850 to over 2,500 square feet, in a variety of two-or-morebedroom floor plans. The styles include open floor plans, stone fireplaces, sunny window seats, hardwood flooring, large relaxing decks and covered porches. All of the plans give owners the option to expand their cottages in the future, whether it’s with a guesthouse, a studio or a separate master suite. Covered decks and breezeways can be built between the buildings, and garages (complete with guest suites) or potting sheds added to truly make your Seabright cottage your own. The cottage designs have been specifically developed to reflect the historical summer cottages and simple farm buildings typical of Point Roberts. That character is obvious when you visit the sales centre, which is actually an original farmhouse from the 1890s that’s been outfitted with finds from garage sales and Pottery Barn. It will become an additional gathering place for Seabright owners, along with the barn-themed community hall that will be used as a venue for neighbourhood

gatherings, art shows for local artists, cooking demonstrations, musical performances and wine tastings, among many other things! And beyond Seabright Farm, Point Roberts has plenty of other things to do, whether you’re staying for a month, a week or just a weekend. Play a round of golf at the 18-hole Point Roberts Golf and Country Club, or pay a visit to the Lighthouse Marine Park to see Orca whales, comb the beach or go clamming or crabbing. The 275-acre Lily Point Marine Reserve is just around the beach corner from Seabright Farm, and features sandy bluffs and tidal flats. The full-service Point Roberts Marina has over 900 slips and is also only minutes away. The Point’s unique restaurants and eclectic shops round out the experience. Canadians looking to purchase a cottage at Seabright Farm will be able to secure attractive long-term financing through a U.S. banking institution with 20 per cent down, and a Real Estate Disclosure Statement has been filed in British Columbia. With the opening of the South Fraser Perimeter Road earlier this year and plans to build a new bridge to replace the tunnel on Hwy 99, getting to Point Roberts is becoming that much more convenient from all parts of the Lower Mainland. The pricing at Seabright Farm is also exceptional, with lots starting at $180,000 U.S., while cottage and lot combinations start at $399,000. For more information about The Cottages at Seabright Farm, visit www. seabrightfarmcottages.com, call tollfree at 1-888-732-6915 or email info@ seabrightfarmcottages.com.
