A sixth enters federal Conservative contest

By Jennifer Lang An already crowded race just got a little more so. Business lawyer Tako van Popta has become the newest hopeful declaring his candidacy as a Conservative Party of Canada nominee in the new federal riding of Cloverdale-Langley City. Five others have already set their sights on the party’s nomination in the new riding, created through a federal boundary redistribution that will be in effect for the fall 2015 federal election. The others are: Paul Brar, who manages a Newton banquet hall; former Langley City councillor Dean Drysdale; former Liberal

The candidate nominating contest in Cloverdale-Langley City is rumoured to be expected this fall, but no formal announcement has been made. Calls by The Cloverdale Reporter to the Conservative Party of Canada’s media line in Alberta were not answered by press time. Van Popta made the announcement Sept. 24, saying he’s a long-time party member who has stepped down as president of the Langley Conservative Electoral District Association to run in the

Watts, who is stepping down after serving three terms as mayor, recently announced she is seeking the Conservative Party of Canada’s nomination in South Surrey-White Rock.

Residents want park to keep forest feel By Jennifer Lang West Cloverdale residents want to see what’s left of the Bose forest preserved as a natural heritage spot rather than turned into a more developed outdoor amenity. More than a year after 200 trees were razed to make way for new residential development, the forest is being turned into a new park. Over the decades, the spot appears to have taken up residence in the minds or neighbours as a pastoral gem that symbolizes the heart of history Surrey and represents Cloverdale’s natural heritage, according to a community engagement summary prepared by the City of Surrey in June. Tonight (Oct. 2) the city hosts another open house on what’s for now being called “Bose Park”, a mostly forested area of 7.4 hectares (18.3 acres) located between 62 and 64 Avenues, east of the Agricultural Land Reserve. The city wants to maintain the site as a forested park with pathways, viewpoints, seating areas and space for natural play – and so do West Cloverdale residents, according to feedback compiled in the report. Tonight’s meeting at A.J.

McLellan Elementary (from 6 to 8 p.m.) is a follow-up to an initial open house held last spring, when residents were given an overview and asked to comment on the park’s design and highlight heritage aspects they felt were important. Suggestions were also provided via an online survey. According to respondents, the farm, established in 1892 by Henry Bose, who served as Surrey mayor (1905 to ‘09), and its surrounding forest is a treasured heritage landmark. Most people said they wanted the forest preserved as a natural heritage site, and felt the name, “Bose”, should be retained in the name of the park, preferring by a wide margin both Bose Farm Park and Bose Park to a third suggestion, Meadowridge Park, liked by just seven per cent of respondents. “I love the Bose Farm and the Bose family,” said one respondent. “They have been part of Cloverdale and Surrey for so many decades. The family works hard and the area is an important part of the physical detail of the area.” Another added, “I love the idea of this place as a Surrey heritage site.”

love your smile!

A pathway leads through the Bose forest.

Others said they prized the familiar view of the farmhouse buildings and barn, and the surrounding landscape rising along the hillside as they drive east on 64 Avenue. There is one residential development underway on the north side of the original farm property, The Ridge, and a second pending. The heritage buildings on the site are being preserved as a condition of redevelopment, and part of the lands from both proposals are being dedicated as parkland. Neighbours say they want the new park to have walking paths, trails, viewing ar-

eas and boardwalks and for the park to maintain view from the hill overlooking the Serpentine River Valley. “[It] used to be an amazing forest and unfortunately our city is selling every piece of land and allowing builders to create crowded, Clayton-like neighbourhoods that proved to be a failure,” noted one commenter. “Beautifully situated on a hill overlooking farmland and mountains,” added another. “It has lots of trees and unfortunately too many have been cut down for more development.” Others describe the area

as one of the few locations in Cloverdale with a mature forest. “It’s very important to the city, especially to the people of Cloverdale.” Several respondents recalled fond memories of visiting the corn maze at the Bose Farm or the haunted house at Halloween created by Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary students. “The Bose Farm has been a staple in the community as a gathering place and unique due to its forest,” added one. Some residents along 61A Avenue said they were concerned about walking trails being located so close to backyards, so it’s suggested a planted buffer be placed along the rear to mitigate public use impact. Other amenities people would like to see include natural area enhancements like bird boxes, native plantings and the removal of invasive species. A parking lot and picnic are were also popular. The concept options will be available online soon. The park design will be refined into a single option that will be presented to the Parks, Recreation and Sport Tourism Committee, then to city council prior to detailed design and construction.

If children lose several weeks of schooling, it is all about the money. If teachers get a pay raise, smaller classes, resulting in more teachers being hired, it is all about the money. If all this costs the taxpayers more money, it is all about the money. If any strike between employer and employee occurs, it is all about the money.

‘We are full’ but otherwise ‘approaching normal’ Extended days at Clayton Heights and Lord Tweedsmuir for another school year From page one

extended day that sees some students starting and ending the school day at different times to accommodate everyone. This year, the Grade 10s have been included along with the Grade 11s and 12s in an extended day. Shared lockers have been a reality for Tweedy students for three years, but 2014 is the first year the Grade 9s, along with the Grade 10s, have had to share lockers. Adding insult to injury for privacy-prizing teens, the lockers are already half-height. Despite their deprivations, students are coping with timetable and locker hassles admirably, Buggie said. “They are very resilient. They’re mostly just resigned.” Education minister Peter Fassbender recently reannounced a new $55 million high school in Clayton will be complete by spring 2017, providing 1,500 new student spaces in the area. Meantime, Buggie predicts cramped conditions at the school will only worsen due to the rapid pace of residential development in Cloverdale, where new homes are being built in Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary’s catchment areas, such as the Ridge at Bose Farms in West Cloverdale. The situation is affecting Clayton Heights Secondary and associate elementary schools, too. “I guess we’re going to continue to grow. With all the new developments going on within our community, it’s going to be putting pressure on schools.”

Sign up for reading help Does your young reader need practice? Coast Capital Reading Buddies is a free, six-week program for children in Grades 2 to 4 that boosts reading skills in a safe, non-threatening environment. Children are paired up with a teen volunteer mentor. It’s offered at the Cloverdale Library starting Oct. 22 and runs Wednesdays from 3:45 p.m. to 4:35 p.m. to Nov. 26. The program is not designed to teach children how to read. For more information, call the Cloverdale Library at 604-598-7326.

Clayton Heights Secondary principal Judy Henriques said the student population there is about what was expected – within five kids of the school’s projected enrolment, or 1,283 students this fall. That doesn’t leave any room for more new students, however. “We are full. As in, the physical space can’t accommodate the 1,280 students,” she said. There are currently 10 portables at the school, which opened in 1999 and is said to have been built for 1,000 students. Clayton Heights went to an extended timetable last year to deal with overcrowding. The extended day is in effect for all Grade 12 students, but also some students in Grade 10 and 11. “It just depends on their situation,” she said. The Grade 8s and 9s are on a fixed schedule, starting at 8 a.m. and ending their day at 2:15 p.m., with the majority of Grade 10s and 11s starting at 9:25 a.m. and going to 3:40 p.m. All Grade 12s have an extended day, starting at 8 a.m. and ending at 3:40 p.m. That opens up the equivalent of three classrooms per period, but it means about 40 students on spares and study breaks are not in class at any given time. Henriques said the students are conscientious and find places to study quietly. “We don’t have a huge schmozzle of kids roaming,” she said. And now that classes are in session, everyone is focused on getting the new school year in gear. “We’re approaching normal as quickly as possible,” she said.

home mail delivery across Canada. Council voted Sept. 15 to send a letter to Canada Post opposing an end to home delivery in the municipality. The move comes in response to a two-line, handwritten letter from a local resident who asked the city take a stand against the plan, arguing the city could refuse to issue a permit for the installation of ‘super mailboxes’ that will be used instead. Beginning this autumn, Canada Post will start phasing out of door-to-door postal service, over the next five years. Among the arguments against community mailboxes are concerns over mail theft and hardship for people with mobility issues.

Overpass remediation project gets underway Motorists asked for patience during expected traffic delays

By Jennifer Lang Motorists can expect closures on the Cst. Roger Pierlet overpass to slow down traffic for the next six months, as a Highway 15 construction project to repair the southbound portion of the bridge gets underway. Traffic is down to single lanes in both

directions on the overpass, a four-lane rail crossing on Highway 15 (176 Street bypass) south of Highway 10 (56 Avenue) in Cloverdale. Officials with the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure said underlying soft soils and decomposition have caused materials used in the construction

of the roadway leading up to the bridge to settle. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s created bumps in the road that need to be repaired on the southbound structure; familiar landmarks to anyone who uses the four-lane, U.S. border route on a regular basis. The remediation work began earlier this month and is expected be complete in spring 2015. Throughout the project, traffic will detour along the adjacent northbound bridge, allowing the highway to remain open. While the ministry conducted a detailed traffic analysis to ensure

the impact on traffic would remain at an acceptable level, motorists are advised to expect delays at times, particularly at peak traffic periods. Ministry officials said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We appreciate everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patience during this construction period.â&#x20AC;? The ministry worked with the design builder to develop and implement the remediation plan to fix the bridge. The Cst. Roger Pierlet Overhead is dedicated in memory of a Surrey RCMP member who was shot and killed near the site in 1974 while on duty.

teeth be replaced?

Your teeth play an important role and even one missing tooth can have a negative impact on your remaining teeth and oral health. When a tooth is missing the healthy adjacent teeth tend to tilt, rotate and shift affecting how your upper and lower teeth meet. This can cause problems when chewing and has an impact on surrounding muscles and your jaw joints. Partial dentures can be a great solution to replace teeth by: • preserving the natural placement of your existing teeth • preventing your remaining teeth from tilting and moving • preventing further damage to your remaining teeth • restoring your smile and improving speech • restoring your ability to eat confidently and efficiently!

If your family Nathan Hazelhurst has heavy traffic, pets and/or kids then plush carpet will not be easy to maintain. You should consider resilient flooring, such as ceramic tile, vinyl, or wood flooring. 2) Flooring that is at the entry or foyer of your home should be durable to outdoor elements. Consider using something more durable like slate, tile, or wood. Hardwood and laminate wood flooring in not recommended in areas of high moisture, as warping and damage can occur. 3) Another big factor when choosing flooring is the cost. All flooring materials have ‘grades’ of quality so be sure to ask an expert before you commit. Choosing the right product for your home doesn’t always mean the most expensive.

Acupuncture improves the body’s functions and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific anatomic sites (Acupuncture points). Much research has Jason proven that acupuncture is effective for treating low back pain. Some of the benefits are as follows: • providing pain relief and reducing inflammation (stimulation of nerves releases endorphins-natural pain killer) • improving muscle stiffness and joint mobility - by increasing local microcirculation, which aids dispersal of swelling and bruising. • improving the outcome when added to conventional treatments such as rehabilitation exercises. • reducing the use of medication for back pain. Acupuncture has no side effects compared to the use of pain medications. Come in for a holistic assessment and treatment with our Registered Acupuncturist to help you with your lower back pain.

supports teeth. It can cause tooth loss as well as an increased risk of heart attack, stroke and other serious problems. Periodontitis causes the inner layer of Dr. Parveen Atwal the gum and bone to pull away from the teeth and form pockets where debris and bacteria collect. The toxins produced by the bacteria break down the bone and connective tissue that hold teeth in place. As the disease progresses teeth are no longer anchored in place. Periodontitis is usually the result of poor oral hygiene but there can be other factors such as hormonal changes, medications, illnesses and family history of gum disease. The most common treatment is scaling and root planing to remove tartar and bacteria from your tooth surfaces. Brushing, flossing daily and regular dental checkups can reduce your chance of developing periodontitis.

MORTGAGE EXPERT

Does your dog pull when attached to a leash? Learn why this is dangerous and damaging. The thyroid gland is located directly in the area that the collar contacts the throat. Any time your dog pulls, the cells around the thyroid become damaged and inflamed. This can lead to hypothyroidism and can be the root of Jen Pinch many health issues. Eye and ear infections can be caused by restricted blood flow to and from the head. Paw and forearm licking can be attributed to allergies, but may also be caused by the impingement of the nerves that travel from the head to the front legs. Soft tissue and alignment injuries can occur simply from the whiplash-like trauma of a dog reaching “the end of his leash”. Small dogs can often suffer trachea damage and can appear to “cough” as a result of tension on the leash. What is the better option to avoid these possible health concerns? A well-fit harness will remove the pressure from the neck area and distribute it to parts of the body that can handle it. A harness that has the leash attachment at the chest offers much more control for the handler and comfort for your pet. It discourages pulling and makes for a more enjoyable leash walk for everyone!

When one of you wants to keep the marital home — New Spousal Separation Mortgage allows finnancing to 95 percent. It’s hard enough to get through the process of splitting assets in the event of a separation or Feisal Panjwani, AMP divorce. What if one of you wants to keep the family home? We can help. Although new mortgage rules mean you can only re nance your home to 80 percent of the value, a Spousal Separation Mortgage allows a buyout to 95 percent, making it easier for one spouse to keep the home. This new mortgage can provide a fair buyout, and possibily pay off the other joint debt. When one of you wants to keep the marital home, make us one of your rst calls. We may be able to help clear some of the nancial hurdles. We’ll guide you through the process, structuring the mortgage for the buyout of one spouse, and then help the other spouse with the purchase of a new home as well.

CHILDCARE SERVICES can I prevent my child Q: How from missing out on “normal” childhood experiences while in daycare?

face it, there are fewer and A: Let’s fewer families where a parent is home to take their child to lessons, practices, play dates, etc. Children often do miss out on extracurricular activities while in care. At KidZrock we strive to provide these opportunities to our families. Soccer instruction, hockey and skating lessons, running clubs and fitness classes are all programs we offer to our kids. This way we ensure that when the kids want to join sports at school, they are prepared. Sports are an amazing way to provide kids with much needed social interaction and exercise which will allow them a sense of confidence in elementary school and especially into secondary school, where it is easy to get lost in the crowd!

applying for a loan, the smaller the A: When down payment the greater the risk to the lender. Central Mortgage and Housing, Edith Katronis a federal corporation, makes it possible for a buyer to purchase a home with as little as 5% of the value of the house as a down payment. Most lenders would not make a loan on this basis. The federal insurance program allows the major banks to loan the money, but it will cost a fee to cover the insurance if you default on your loan to the bank. It has recourse to CMHC to cover the loan amount so they do not lose on the loan they made to you. The fee depends on the amount down and the value of the home. A $450,000. Purchase with 5% down will require a premium of $14,175. An amount that will be added to your mortgage and it will have to be repaid. Check more details at www.cmhc.ca/en/co/moloin/moloin 023.cfm
