Water metering rates set

It was five years in the making but the bylaw setting Summerland’s metered water rates received first three readings on Monday evening. The consumption model for the metering was suggested by Peter Parchomchuk, a retired irrigation engineer. Lorrie Coates, acting administrator for the municipality, said finding a suitable metering model was difficult. “The system that we have in Summerland has so many different faces to it,” she said. These include metering for single-family homes, multi-family units, single parcels with more than one service, strata developments with individual meters plus a meter for irrigation, domestic meters, compound meters and irrigation meters. Under the new rate structure, there is a base fee for all water users. The fees for consumption are structured based on

the irrigation needs of the property. “To be fair to all water users, all users must participate in the water system and everyone must pay their fair share,” Coates said in her report to council on Monday. Coun. Peter Waterman said developing a metering structure has been a difficult situation for the council. “We had to try and deal with this whole situation as fairly as we could,” he said. Coun. Martin Van Alphen said it was a lengthy process finding a suitable metering structure. “We wanted to be revenue neutral,” he added. “This isn’t a tax grab. We need to meter and monitor our water.” Coun. Orv Robson said the metering bylaw is for domestic use, which accounts for around 20 per cent of Summerland’s water consumption. Mayor Janice Perrino said the structure may be adjusted in the future if needed. The first three readings of the bylaw received unanimous support. Coun. Bruce Hallquist was not present at the meeting on Monday.

adopted. The land for the development requires a bylaw amendment to rezone the property from A1-Agricultural Small Acreage to RSD1, RSD2 and RSD3 residential. The difference in the three residential classes is in the lot sizes.

The bylaw to amend the Official Community Plan and zoning for the development received first reading on Monday evening. A public hearing on the development will be held at the next municipal council meeting on Monday, Sept. 8.

Housing concept presented Development in Trout Creek will go to public hearing by John Arendt A proposed development would put roughly 30 homes onto a 3.2-hectare property in Trout Creek beside Powell

Beach Park. The proposal was presented at municipal council on Monday evening, where an amendment to the Official Community plan was given first reading. The property, on Dale Avenue, is zoned A1-Agricultural Small

Acreage, but it is not within the Agricultural Land Reserve. It is within the Urban Growth Area in Summerland’s existing Official Community Plan. The designation does not change under the new Urban Growth Plan which has not yet been

Pollock said the Summerland facility is one of the bigger receiving stations in operation. Fruit from Summerland is then sent elsewhere for packing. A packing house in Osoyoos handles apples and soft fruits. Oliver processes apples and cherries.

Kelowna packages cherries and pears and Winfield processes apples. Pollock said there are no plans to return to a packing facility in Summerland, but the building will remain as a receiving station. Space formerly used for packing fruit is now rented to two tenants, Pollock said.

Proposed library

Now that the design of the proposed Summerland Library building has been approved and a development variance permit has been issued, construction can begin.

Library building design approved by John Arendt The design of the proposed Summerland Library building has been approved and a development variance permit has been issued. On Monday, Summerland municipal council passed a resolution which will allow construction to begin at the site. In addition, the municipality will reallocate $60,000 earmarked for relocating underground utilities to development of the parking plaza. The library will be constructed on Main Street at Kelly Avenue, at the site where the former Summerland Arts Centre and Gallery and a garage had been located. The new library will be 743 square metres in area, more than twice the size of the existing library which measures 316 square metres. The plans for the new library include meeting space, an area

for teens and an outdoor readers’ terrace. The project will be paid for by the Okanagan Regional Library from reserve funds. The land was purchased from Sean and Colleen Greenwood and from the municipality. Michele Rule, communications manager for the Okanagan Regional Library, said the response to the new facility has been encouraging. “We’ve been hearing nothing put positive support from our library partners,” she said. Before the construction work can begin, crews must first demolish the two buildings at the site. Rule said one of the two buildings on the site, the municipally-owned building which housed the Summerland Arts Centre and Gallery for the past 16 years, contains asbestos. Mayor Janice Perrino said the need for a new library build-

ing has been identified for many years. It was discussed when she was first elected to council in 1999. Coun. Robert Hacking said the Okanagan Regional

Library has moved quickly to get the plans in place. “I appreciate the pace you have kept throughout this process,” he told library representatives on

Monday. Coun. Orv Robson said the new facility will add to the downtown area. “The community recognizes the benefits this building will

have for us,” he said. Safety fencing will go up around the site next week and the demolition on the existing buildings will begin soon after that time.

An official groundbreaking ceremony is expected in mid September. Library representatives hope to have the new building completed in 2015.

LEGALLY SPEAKING...

A public service message from Bell, Jacoe & Company

Home Staging With the housing market being a little slower than it has been in years past homeowners are looking for ways to increase their properties appeal to purchasers. One such way is to “stage” your property. Experience has shown that professionally staged properties sell quicker and for more money. Developers have been using this technique with their “show homes”for many years. Staging, simply put, is using selected furniture and accessories to highlight the architectural details of your home, creating an attractive environment which stimulates the prospective purchaser. The buyer views your home as a warm, inviting space. Anyone who has watched HGTV on television has seen what a difference this can make in the appearance of a home. Many purchasers are now viewing properties online first before they decide to go further. If those pictures create that spark of interest, then staging has been well worth it.

our pick

The price of water When the municipality began to set out a structure for metered water rates, the process seemed simple. The reality was something far more involved and complicated than anyone could have anticipated. Some of the metering models would have penalized homeowners with large lawns. Others would have addressed water waste, but without encouraging water conservation measures. Some would have saved considerable money for those in apartments or condominium units, but added significantly to the costs of those with gardens. However, a metering model is essential. Summerland’s present billing system, which charges a flat monthly fee for water users, does nothing to encourage water conservation measures. Those who minimize their water use pay the same as those who waste water. A metering system, by its nature, will reduce water consumption. Water customers will be aware of how much or how little water they are using and they can alter their water use patterns as a result. The rate model which was presented this week has a base rate for the water service and rates based on the amount of water a property should require. Determining this billing system was a lengthy process, taking five years. The result is a comprehensive 22-page bylaw, covering domestic water metering for the community. Throughout the many meetings and discussions about the metering structure, one point has been repeated: A rate structure must be fair for all users. In January, when the metered system takes effect, there will be an adjustment for some, but in the end, the result will be more awareness of our water supply and more careful use of this precious resource.

Once again, children in the community discovered or renewed a love of reading as they participated in the library’s Summer Reading Club. The program, organized by the Summerland Library, helps to develop good reading habits among children. Good reading skills are important and the habits the young readers have developed will help them throughout their lives.

Ruts in the road to farmland changes The month-long Agricultural Land Commission consultation closed Aug. 22, and the B.C. government is compiling the feedback received from a province-wide tour and invitation to comment. I can’t tell you much about the official input. The consultation sessions were by invitation only, with no media allowed, and the submissions via website are also not Tom Fletcher public. I reached Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick as he was traveling around B.C. with his camper van, conducting his own meetings with farmers. He’s not saying much either, except that a summary of the findings should be made public in September as the government considers new regulations. The aim of this exercise is to consider relaxing rules around secondary farmland uses in the Interior, Kootenay and North regions, as well as food processing and retail sales of food and beverages on farmland. Also under consideration is allowing breweries and distilleries, as wine and cider production are now allowed, and relaxing rules to permit more off-farm products to be sold from farms. Letnick defended the 30-day summer consultation as adequate. It’s based on 11

questions developed with staff, farm groups and local government. He’s also not counting how many emails were stacked up by proponents or critics. “I’m not conducting a plebiscite,” Letnick said. “What I’m trying to do is come up with the best balance of recommendations to make to government that can hold their own based on the idea and the potential positive and negative consequences.” NDP agriculture critic Lana Popham was more forthcoming. She was invited to the formal sessions, and also won’t talk about them directly. But she’s not backing away from her criticisms. The government is proposing to bypass the Agricultural Land Commission for several kinds of decisions, including subdivision for family use or into properties of 160 acres or more. “I think the general idea was that people trust the ALC to make that decision, and it should still go through the commission,” Popham said. “Actually the commission has been making those decisions anyway, and I think they’ve been quite fair when somebody applies.” She said farmers also aren’t sold on the notion of easing the rules for secondary businesses. “You will already find situations where there’s, let’s say a welding shop or something like that attached to somebody’s residence who lives on ALR land,” Popham said. “That sort

of stuff has been allowed, but it’s always had to go through the ALC or some sort of process that’s been in place. This leaves that process out, and so I think that’s the problem people are having.” She noted that non-farm activities have a way of growing until they become the main business. A reader who attended the Kelowna session said even winery operators aren’t thrilled about the proposal to enlarge retail space and allow sales of wine or beer not made on site. He said “not one” participant there liked the idea of increasing industrial activity such as food processing or retailing. And he agreed with Popham that the ALC is doing a good job with subdivision applications. Popham also clarified the situation with the leased craft gin distillery on her own Vancouver Island farm. It started as a winery, and the conversion needed only local government approval because the production facility was already considered and taxed as light industrial. Victoria Gin has been a model for the government’s push to allow distilleries, breweries or meaderies on farmland. Given the B.C. Liberals’ love of liberalized liquor, I expect that change to go through. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press. Twitter: @ tomfletcherbc Email: tfletcher@blackpress.ca

culls

The fire ban which had been in place in the region for much of the summer has been lifted and campfires are now permitted, but the risk of wildfires still remains. This weekend, as many will enjoy a last long weekend of summer camping, it is important to remain just as careful as during the campfire ban. One carelessly discarded cigarette or one abandoned campfire can cause significant damage to British Columbia’s forests.

Library adds to downtown revitalization In recent months the Summerland Chamber has participated in discussions around the building of the new community library. The new library has been long anticipated as the current facility is less than half the recommended size. The new building will be more than double the current size, at about 8,000 square feet and will sit on a 23,000 square foot site. In the next few weeks, demolition will begin at the Main Street site which is a combination of the former art gallery, the former location of Giant’s Head Automotive and a portion of Kelly Street. A final step in the process was completed 10 days ago when the District of Summerland’s Design Committee met to review the plans for construction. The Chamber is also represented on the committee. This past Monday council granted the development permit. The new design by Urban Arts Architects uses glass and wood extensively to incorporate light, views and warmth and features a unique parabolic roof to create a dynamic design worthy of its Main Street location. Extensive landscaping, multiple trees, outdoor furnishings, a parking plaza with stage, xeriscape gardens, a readers terrace that opens to the outdoors and unique landscaping further emphasize the indoor-outdoor connectivity of the design. This $3.2 million development will bring new life and energy to the east end of Main Street and contribute to a cultural hub at that end. The Summerland Arts Council has already opened its beautiful new gallery and retail shop kitty corner from the

No-Labour Labour Day

Labour Day had its beginning in 1872 when print workers went on strike for a maximum 58-hour work week and were jailed. Unions were illegal and striking was seen as a criminal conspiracy to disrupt trade. Demonstrations protesting their arrest led to Prime Minister Sir John MacDonald repealing the anti-union laws and Labour Day became a holiday to celebrate workers’ rights. Archie Nicholson, ? Eustrin, Tom Charity, Ben Mayne and Louis Derosier, employees at the Summerland Box Factory in the 1940s, likely appreciated that fact and the extra day off—with pay. To most of us, Labour Day is the last long weekend of the summer and we do our best to make the most of it—celebrating by not labouring. Have a safe and happy No-Labour Day.

Water supply remains plentiful Despite the hot and dry weather this summer, Summerland still has lots of water in its reservoirs. Shawn Hughes,

water distribution chief operator for the municipality, said the reservoirs are at roughly three-quarters of full capacity.

The reservoirs have a capacity for 14,136 megalitres. The most recent measurements show 10,579 megalitres. “For this time

of year, it looks pretty good,” Hughes said. “I don’t anticipate that we’ll hit Stage 2 on the trigger graph.” As a result, the community remains at Stage 1 of its water conservation measures for residential

properties. Under Stage 1 restrictions, residential sprinkler or underground irrigation is permitted three times a week. Under Stage 2 and Stage 3 restrictions, lawn and garden

irrigation is limited further and under Stage 4 restrictions, no lawn watering is permitted. In past years, Summerland has implemented more stringent restrictions to ensure the commun-

ity had an adequate supply of water. Hughes said public education and the installation of water meters have both helped to reduce domestic water use. Water metering is to take effect in 2015.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Municipal Council will hold a Public Hearing to hear representations of persons who deem their interest in property affected by any of the below mentioned bylaw amendments at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, September 8th, 2014 in the Council Chambers of the Municipal Office, 13211 Henry Avenue, Summerland, B.C.:

Subdivision bylaw read

Council gave second and third readings to a bylaw amending the zoning bylaw and subdivision and development services bylaw for 12262 Saunders Cresc. The bylaw had been the subject of a public hearing earlier in the evening. Coun. Orv Robson voted against the bylaw.

Variance permit approved

Council approved a development variance permit to allow for an accessory building in the front yard of 19269 Lakeshore Dr. The required front yard setback for an accessory structure will be reduced from six metres to five metres. The changes will require a zoning bylaw amendment. They are needed to allow for the construction of a proposed carriage house.

The municipality will spend more than $11,000 for a new heating and cooling unit for the Summerland Aquatic Centre. The unit provides heating and cooling for the fitness room at the centre. The existing unit failed earlier this month. The replacement unit has a higher energy efficiency rating than the existing unit, which was installed in 1996 when the fitness room was built. The cost of the new unit is $11,086.95 plus the gas permit plus tax.

Sign policy approved

Council approved a policy governing the digital signs on Highway 97. The two digital signs were installed earlier this year. The policy allows information about community festivals or events, tourism activities, community sports events, nationallevel awareness campaigns, holidays and health and safety notices.

A Salute To

SEPTEMBER 1st, 2014

The origins of Labour Day Though millions of Canadians now see the first Monday in September as one last opportunity to enjoy some summer recreation with friends and family members, Labour Day is symbolic of much more than long weekends and backyard barbecues. Labour Day was inspired in large part by Canada’s growing industrialization in the second half of the 19th century, when competition for work in the nation’s rapidly growing cities was fierce and workers who complained of long workweeks or poor working conditions could easily be replaced. Such was the case in Toronto in 1872, when printers threatened to strike after years of lobbying for shorter workweeks. Those protests went ignored, and on March 25, 1872, the city’s printers went on strike. Within weeks, other workers in the city began to support the printers, whose strike had interrupted Toronto’s thriving publishing industry. Within three weeks of the printers going on strike, 2,000 workers marched through the streets of Toronto. The number of marchers gradually

grew, and eventually 10 percent of the city’s population, or 10,000 people, had joined in the march that culminated at Queen’s Park. But the striking worker’s efforts did not go unchallenged, as Toronto Globe founder George Brown replaced his printers with workers from nearby towns and even took legal action to put an end to the strike and have its organizers arrested for criminal conspiracy. But Prime Minister John A. MacDonald, who worked on the opposite side of the political aisle as Brown, spoke out against the publisher’s efforts during a public demonstration at City Hall. MacDonald eventually passed the Trade Union Act, decriminalizing trade unions, and set the leaders of the strike free. Though many printers who walked out never regained their jobs, and those that did still did not earn shorter workweeks, their efforts did mark an important step forward with regard to worker’s rights in Canada. The movement that had started in Toronto soon spread to other Canadian cities, where workers also demanded shorter workweeks. Other cities also adopted parades in honor of the march that first caught the attention of MacDonald in 1872, and in 1894 then-Prime Minister Sir John Thompson officially declared Labour Day a national holiday.

No need to wait for out-of-town visitors before visiting and stepping back in time to discover our community’s roots and history. For those more comfortable with the heat you might want to grab an ice cream cone and wander around downtown and enjoy the many beautiful street banners.

While at the Arts Centre be sure to check out the current show, Heritage Houses Talk. This is a collaborative show that features works by Albertine Meyer, Susan Gibbs, Mary Scales, Maureen King and Evelyne Turner who

are members of the Studio 5 Group. Some of the houses are still here (Balcomo, the Spencer house and others), but some like the Darke house are simply memories so this show is an opportunity to remember part of our past. The Art Gallery is open Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Penticton Art Gallery is another great spot to visit during this hot weather. They currently have three shows in their exhibit areas. Observation and Invention, featuring works by Keith Harder, is in their Main Gallery. The Toni Onley Gallery has works by Yvonne Morrish. Her show is entitled Drawing Upon the Imagination.

The third show, Days of Augusta, is in the Project Room and features works by one of Vancouver’s most unheralded artists Robert Keziere. While his name

may be largely unknown, you have most likely seen his work as he has quietly documented the social and cultural growth of Canada’s third largest city since the 1970s

Beach attracts dogs and owners by Carla McLeod Special to the Review

The dog days of summer are no problem for canines living in, or visiting, the Summerland area. Sunoka Provincial Park offers an off leash dog beach that is equally as large and beautiful as the one designated for people. From the east parking lot of the park, there is a sign pointing to the dog beach. A bark mulch path meanders through the trees and leads one to this doggie heaven. On any given day, happy, healthy

dogs of every size and description can be seen bounding about on the sand, swimming for a ball, interacting with their humans and socializing with other dogs. Dog owners using this beach say there is nowhere else like it in the Okanagan or the province. “It’s the best one in the world!” exclaimed Cynthia Ullmark. “I have never seen a dog beach like this anywhere we have travelled.” She and her husband Jan visit from Canmore, Alberta year after year. Michelle Weston holds a similar view. “There’s no place like this in all the places

I’ve gone in B.C., that has this much space for the dogs to play with each other and their owners,” she said. “What I love is on the weekends when you see whole families here, the mom, the dad, the kids and they have their family pet with them. The dog is not left at home. I think that is just the perfect world, where the family in its entirety, can be together for the day.” For the local residents using this beach, it has become a gathering place and a community of people who meet and see each other on a daily basis. “I think it is just the best beach,” said

ing up after their dogs. She uses the park every day, all year round and is worried that the beach may be taken away because of this. The park attendant said 95 per cent of people who use the area are responsible dog owners, but it can be the other five per cent who ruin it for everyone else. The park has biodegradable bags for owners to use when cleaning up after their dogs and compost bins for the waste. It is also important to keep dogs on a leash until arriving at the off-leash beach area. A $115 fine can be imposed for having a dog off leash in a provincial park. The parks department is working on improving signage about the rules and on educating the public to be responsible dog owners.

The popular, well used attraction is a benefit to the town. Weston said she has made a lot of friends in Summerland. She spends time at a local coffee shop and quilts here as well. Even though Knez lives in Penticton she said, “My doctor, dentist, optometrist and friends are all in Summerland.” Ullmark showed off a hand bag she had bought at a local boutique. A couple from Mission, B.C., Coleen Smith and Kyle Goosen take their dogs to the beach every day when they are here and are looking at property with the possibility of becoming future residents. “We have a deep appreciation for this beach,” added Deanne Gawne. It would only be natural to assume that the dogs do too.

Wright to compete in karate championships A karate athlete who trains in Summerland will represent Canada at the 2014 Junior PanAmerican Championships in Lima, Peru later this month. William Wright, 18, qualified to represent Canada in the international competition when he placed second at the Canadian National Championships in January.

10 /H R PA DD LE BO AR D R RE NTAL S AL L SE PT EM BE

The competition in Peru is the highest level possible for junior athletes. Karate athletes from 37 countries are expected at the Pan-American Karate Federation Championships. The tournament will bring more than 500 of the best athletes in the sport. Wright, a brown belt, has studied karate for the past six

years. He trains with the Taneda Karate Dojo in Summerland. Wright will compete in the men’s kumite or sparring for men 18 to 21 years of age and under 67 kilograms. He anticipates strong competition since only the top two

athletes from each country will compete in each event. Training for the international competition includes three sessions a week with Taneda Karate Dojo and regular exercising at home. “It becomes a fulltime effort,” he said.

Wright joined karate with a friend six years ago. Since then, he has continued with the sport through Taneda Karate Dojo. “The environment at our dojo is good,” he said. “We’re really close-knit, almost like a family.”

Because of the rainy weather at the end of last week, the campfire ban in place for much of the summer has now been lifted. The ban was lifted at noon on Friday. In mid-July, the Kamloops Fire Centre issued a ban for the region and the Summerland Fire Department issued a ban for the community. In addition, Giant’s Head Mountain Park is open to vehicle traffic once again. The park had been closed to vehicle traffic because of the extremely dry conditions.
