While some drivers had difficulty breaking their old habits at the southern end of the redesigned Sande Overpass, pedestrians like Cam Maximchuk said crossing on foot has been much safer since it opened last week.

TERRACE - Last week’s activation of traffic control lights at the southern end of the Sande Overpass may have caught some motorists by surprise, but for pedestrians it was a welcome introduction. Instead of flashing amber and red lights, normal signal lights now control traffic turning east from the southern end of the overpass to Keith Ave./Highway 16 and the traffic approaching the intersection on Keith Ave. from the west. Cam Maximchuk, who frequently walks to his job at Fountain Tire, said that before, as a pedestrian, “you were dodging.” “You were dodging, watching out because everybody’s backed up trying to get their shot,” he said of motorists wanting to clear the overpass. “This is way better. It’s wider, better flow I’d say.” Towards the end of last week, when the new lights became entirely operational, Facebook lit up with stories of drivers passing right through the lights. One person claimed to have been clipped by someone who shot through a red light and another Facebooker, Tara Lynn, said that “this intersection will be the source of many accidents in the days/ years to come. It’s just a fact. It’s a huge traffic change and most people cannot comprehend this. It’s sad but true. I only hope none will be fatal.” Another person said that the new double east turn lanes would confuse those who are accustomed to a single lane as they arc through the intersection at the southern end. The overpass redesign, its chief feature being the construction of a second lane for traffic turning left at the southern end, came in response to years of lobbying from local politicians and others to the provincial government to deal with what was regarded as a choke point for both highway and local traffic. The company WestCana did the electric component of the work under a subcontract from Adventure Paving of Prince Rupert which did the construction. The total bid price for the whole project came in at $2,297,266.42 which was paid for by the province.

Bill Murray highrise passes first two readings By Kevin Campbell THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Prince Rupert city council has passed first and second readings of a bylaw amendment paving the way for the construction of a highrise condo on Bill Murray Drive. Proposed Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 3377, 2015 is the first step in SwissReal Group’s efforts to build the highrise, as well as a commercial building at the corner of Bill Murray Drive and Stiles Place. The zoning amendment can be described as ‘spot zoning’, to enable the height restrictions to move from its existing 16 metres (or four storeys) to 29 metres (or eight storeys). “The primary difference between [the old zoning bylaw and the new one] is whereas in the original bylaw, the height increase was for all of the areas in [the B zone of the agenda’s Attachment C, which includes the majority of Third Avenue, First Avenue and Stiles Place], the new bylaw essentially creates a new zone for only the area that is proposed to be developed,” said city planner Zeno Krekic. “So this would be essentially what you’d refer to as spot zoning.” A new Downtown Highrise

Zone (labelled C6) would form the new zone that SwissReal Group’s development would comprise. C6 is a new classification for that area and includes permitted uses such as retail use, personal service establishment, office, entertainment centre, theatre, multiple family dwelling and assembly hall. The maximum floor area ratio for multiple family dwellings is 3.0 metres and the maximum building height in this new C6 zone is 35 metres, with a 4.5 metre building setback from any residential use. A Sept. 15 public hearing was scheduled earlier this year and SwissReal Group’s Jeremy Towning provided Krekic with the results from that evening. As Towning describes it, the group was “taken aback with the amount of positive input from the locals in Prince Rupert”. Councillor Blair Mirau asked Krekic to clarify the traffic analysis that was completed by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure and asked if the higher density would result in any disruptions in the area. Julie Cooke, a district development technician for the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure – Skeena District, wrote in her report: “Our traffic engineers have reviewed the SwissReal traffic

Cooke also requested parking clarifications in concert with the type of commercial development being built. “In terms of traffic, [the ministry] is satisfied with the existing streets and it can accomodate a new development without major disruption,” Krekic said

Coun. Gurvinder Randhawa asked about potential noise concerns to which Krekic responded that in this instance and at this stage it would be hard to assess and regulate. “Spot zoning is superior to blanket zoning in this case, in my opinion,” added Mirau. “I would like to take this to public hearing and make our decision from there.” The public hearing will be set for the Dec. 7 city council meeting at 7 p.m.

Lung Association pushing people to be aware of radon KITIMAT - To encourage more BC residents to test their homes for radon, the BC Lung Association is giving away radon test kits to three contest winners every month. “We hope our monthly contest will inspire more people to take the health risk of radon more seriously. Radon gas is accountable for up to 16 per cent of lung can-

cers and we suggest all BC residents test their homes,” says Rossella Norman, Volunteer BC Lung Association Director for Kitimat. Exposure to colourless, odourless radon gas is the leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. BC residents, particularly those living in Area 1 where levels of radon gas are known to be elevated, are urged to test their

homes this winter. “Should British Columbians be concerned about radon exposure? Yes. Should they panic? No,” says Britt Swoveland, RadonAware Manager for the BC Lung Association. “The risks from radon are cumulative, which means serious effects result from exposure to high levels over a long period of time.

But it is important residents test for radon and depending on the result, effective mitigation solutions exist.” Measured in becquerels per cubic metre (Bq/m3), Health Canada recommends home radon levels not exceed a safety guideline of 200 (Bq/m3). “As there is no known safe level of exposure, the BC Lung Association rec-

ommends making every effort to minimize home radon levels to lowest levels possible. “One house can have radon levels next to zero while the house next door can be off the charts,” continued Swoveland. “A certified radon mitigation professional can reduce radon levels in most homes by more than 80 per cent for about the same

cost as other common home repairs, rarely more than $1,500 to $3,500.” To learn more about how radon affects your lung health – and to enter the monthly radon test kit giveaway contest - go to the BC Lung Association’s website RadonAware. ca or call the BC Lung Association toll-free at 1.800.665.5864.

PRINCE RUPERT - Re-zoning was a popular topic at the Nov. 23 Prince Rupert city council meeting, as a semi-circular parcel of land located between Prince Rupert Boulevard and Drake Crescent was proposed to be re-zoned from RM1 (multiple family residential) to RM3 (multiple family dwellings up to four stories). The land is 1.94 acres in size, a vacant in-fill residential lot surrounded by existing multi-family units, light industrial lands and a church. The applicant proposes to build under a zoned property designation that includes a condominium block and townhomes. “The current zoning would not support the development of smaller units, nor a mixture of unit sizes at an affordable price,” reads the re-zoning application. “Based on current market demand it is intended that the development will be a mixed form of one-bedroom, two-bedroom and townhome units which would be supported by the requested zoning,” the application continues, noting that the applicant has previous project experience in Smithers and resort development experience in Whistler. Mayor Lee Brain asked city

BC HYDRO / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The city of Prince Rupert is still running on emergency backup power coming from natural gas-fueled generators at the Prince Rupert Generation Station. The 69-kilovolt line that connects Falls River Hydro and Browns Lake power stations was returned to full service on Saturday at 2 p.m. As of Wednesday, BC Hydro was optimistic that the main 287 kilovolt transmission line to Prince Rupert would be back in service sometime on Thursday afternoon, “keeping in mind we are working in a slide area,” Dave Mosure, BC Hydro spokesperson, said. The main transmission line suffered five structure damages during a Nov. 16 storm.

B.C. pays Rupert By Todd Hamilton THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The B.C. government will be forking over $51,065.68 to the City of Prince Rupert this month as compensation from municipal taxes for provincial properties. The province is distributing approximately $17.3 million this month in compensation for municipal property taxes to 56 communities around the province. Grants-in-lieu-of property taxes are distributed every November and reimburse municipalities for services that benefited government properties, such as municipally run sewers, roads and fire protection. Grants are issued in accordance with the Municipal Aid Act and are payable on land owned by the provincial government such as courthouses, provincial government office buildings and warehouses. Schools and hospitals are exempt from paying municipal property taxes and are not part of the grants-in-lieu calculation. Other provincial assets such as highways, forests, parks or land under the control, management or administration of a Crown corporation are also excluded from compensation under the act. This year’s payment from the Ministry of Technology, Innovation and Citizens’ Services is $167,000 more than last year’s total of $17.1 million. The increase is attributed to a number of factors, including fluctuations based on property assessments as well as the sale and purchase of government properties around the province.

Terrace ready for winter snow By Josh Massey THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - THE AREA’S first snow fall of the season last week had city crews plowing roads and sidewalks, and thanks to a recent purchase, they had a new sidewalk plow to replace the old. The city’s job is fairly roundthe-clock and is done by the roads and drainage crew of 12 who are on duty 24-hours a day from Sunday night through Friday evening, with a day shift operating on weekends, says city public works director Rob Schibli. Private companies are contracted out to remove snow and otherwise assist during major storms, he added. Crews use both sand and salt to fight the ice and snow, with the latter losing its effectiveness as the weather gets colder. Using sand helps with traction on the hills and the salt helps keep the drains clear, according to the city.

Workers will also use shovels to clear drains plugged up by snow. Street parking impeding snow removal is not permitted and vehicles may be towed. Residents also have to clear the bottom of their own driveways after plows have gone through. But since 2009, the city has been helping out the elderly and those with physical and other challenges to deal with the windrows plugging driveways after a street has been cleared. Qualifying residents can sign up for free snow removal. According to Schibli, 28 residents signed up for the program in 2014 which used $2,940 of the program’s $5,000 annual budget. The program has never gone over budget, even though it is a first come first serve program, said city corporate administrator Alisa Thompson. “We’ve never exceeded the budget since the program was ini-

tiated so it seems very unlikely. It is first come, first served but if we had a huge participation increase council could look at increasing the amount in the budget the next year,” she said. Residents must own and occupy the property to be cleared, be 65 years of age or more at the date of application or be permanently confined to a wheelchair, restricted to the permanent use of crutches or braces, or otherwise be permanently disabled in such a way as to restrict physical mobility. No able-bodied persons under the age of 65 can reside at the property. Condo complexes where snow removal is the responsibility of the condo corporation do not qualify. Residents clearing snow should also not push it into the middle of the street so as to impede traffic or impede city snow removal efforts.

Comeback win…

SUBMITTED / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

XUYUN ZENG, BLACK PRESS

TERRACE - Liam Albright takes the puck up the ice in the game against Steelheads in Smithers last Saturday.

KITIMAT - The Kitimat Winterhawks PeeWee rep team won the Cliff Sharples Memorial tournament in Terrace October 23-25. Kitimat played Terrace in the first game and lost 8-4. In their second game Kitimat played Smithers and won 6-3. In their third game Kitimat beat Prince Rupert 6-2, which set them up to play Terrace again in the finals. Terrace took an early lead, but Kitimat came back and won the game 8-5. It was a total team effort with the kids taking care of their defensive zone first. The coaches were very proud of the kids for their dedication and work ethic throughout the tournament.

River Kings shoot into division lead with Smithers win By Jackie Lieuwen

THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - Terrace River Kings shot into first in the CIHL west division last weekend after a 5-3 win against Smithers Steelheads. This was the fourth win in a row for the Kings and significant because Steelheads are their toughest opponents, and particularly strong team on their home ice. “It was extra special to beat them

in their home rink,” said coach Rob Findlay, adding that the rink is smaller changing the style of play, and all the strongest Steelhead players are there. Chapen Leblond from the River Kings scored the first goal five minutes into the first period, but Steelheads tied it up 1-1 five minutes later. The teams battled hard back and forth, but Steelheads managed a second goal two minutes from the end, wrapping up the first period at

2-1. At ten minutes in the second, Chapen Leblond tied up the game 2-2 with a power play goal, but five minutes later, Steelheads scored, taking the lead again 3-2. Findlay says the game changer was when a Steelhead went after LeBlond for a fight, head butting him and earning the Steelheads a seven minute penalty. Ryan Reinbolt scored on that power play, ending the second period 3-3.

Dawson Leblond earned the River Kings the lead five minutes into the third period, and the teams fought a hard game until the end. The Steelheads pulled their goalie for the last few minutes, and Tristan Murray finished the game with a final River King goal, ending the game 5-3. “The boys played really well defensively, and Patti had a stellar game,” said coach Findlay. “We had a short team… we were

missing a couple of our key guys, but the guys are playing a good team game, putting in that extra effort, back checking hard and looking after our own end.” This puts River Kings at the top of the west division in the CIHL, with Prince Rupert in second, Smithers third, and Kitimat forth. This weekend the Kings will play two away games, first against Lac La Hache Saturday and then Williams Lake Sunday.

The squad earned a spot at provincials after winning the Northwest regional title - a feat they came oh, so close to doing in 2014, but fell just short in a marathon finals match against the Smithers Secondary Gryphons. This year, the opponent was the same, but the end result was much different. The Rainmakers started the tournament against the hosts, Smithers Secondary School with a straight sets win 25-14, 25-16. With a quick turnaround in this one day event, the next match up would see Prince Rupert play Caledonia Secondary School. The ’Makers made quick work in another straight sets win over the Terrace team 25-18, 25-11. The athletes had to deal with a compressed schedule during this one day event. “It wasn’t easy for the boys to play so quickly, but the boys carried a

very high level of emotional intensity throughout the tournament, and were well-organized,” said head coach Stefan Delloch. The final was a rematch of the first game of the day for the Rainmakers as well as last year’s finals, pitting them against Smithers once again. It was a tightly played contest, but

the Rupert athletes were able to continue their high intensity and strong play, winning the final 2513, 25-19, and 25-15. The Rainmakers didn’t lose a set. It was an amazing result for the team and losing in the fifth set of the zone finals (15-13) last year, that experience definitely helped the team

succeed this year, and no doubt was a big moment for the group. The Rainmakers will lose all nine players to graduation at the end of this year. All-stars for the tournament from the team were Tyler Duffy, Justin McChesney and John Nelson. The tournament MVP went to Justin

McChesney. “From the start of the season until now they are a completely different team, they did a phenomenal job,” Delloch added. The solid attacking balance of the team and their overall structure was a big contributor to the team’s success. Coach Delloch elaborated: “The biggest reason we won was having balance throughout the lineup. We were able to have five legitimate attacking options on the court at all times, with two very dominant hitters in Justin and Tyler. We also had great height blocking with Aiden Bull and Cole Marogna. It’s not very often in Prince Rupert you get that kind of balance. It is a special team and group of athletes,” Delloch said. “The Rainmakers were able to overwhelm the other teams. Rupert player Jon Nelson did a great job of mixing things up and keeping the attack unpredictable,” the coach added. The athletes and the staff will now represent the Northwest at the AA volleyball provincials. The top 16 teams compete at this event in Langley from Dec. 3 - 5.
