RCMP say alcohol appears to be a factor in a single-vehicle accident that happened on Drought Hill Monday morning.

At approximately 7:15 a.m. on Monday morning West Kelowna RCMP attended a single vehicle collision on Drought Hill involving a GMC pick up truck that reportedly hit some black ice and lost control.

JOHNSTON MEIER INS - PEAC R0050892592 PV06

The northbound truck was travelling uphill when it crossed the centre line and collided with the rock wall and suffered significant damage.

RCMP Cpl. Carroll said the driver, a Kelowna man, appeared to be under the influence of alcohol. The investigation is ongoing.

The driver suffered minor injuries and was taken by ambulance to Kelowna General Hospital. Two passengers were not injured and did not require medical treatment.

The truck was towed from the scene.

Bylaw No: Applicant: Location: Purpose:

Woodhaven Board Room 1450 KLO Road, Kelowna, BC

871-257 & 1195-22 (RDCO Files: Z17/05 and RLUB-17-02) Regional District of Central Okanagan Central Okanagan East and Central Okanagan West Electoral Areas To amend Zoning Bylaw No. 871 and Joe Rich Rural Land Use Bylaw No. 1195 to incorporate changes to secondary suite regulations.

The Regional District of Central Okanagan has completed a policy review of secondary suite regulations in the Central Okanagan East and West Electoral Areas. Following extensive analysis and review, the following policy changes are being proposed:



To remove any limit to total floor area or percentage distribution of the secondary suite to the principal building. This policy change is consistent with recent changes to the current B.C. Building Code and will provide a higher level of health and safety as well as make it easier for residents wishing to construct or legalize a secondary suite.



To allow only one secondary suite or one additional dwelling unit per parcel, where land use and parcel size permits.



To require that new and existing on-site sewerage systems demonstrate compliance with today’s standards and include a primary reserve area for a back-up Type I trench system.



To define ‘breezeway’ and ‘carport, which will provide additional clarification to homeowners wishing to construct or legalize a suite. Further, to define ‘private water source’, and ‘on-site sewerage system’ to ensure consistency with the RDCO Subdivision Servicing Bylaw No. 1397 and the Provincial Sewerage System Regulation.

How do I get more information?

Copies of the proposed bylaws and related materials may be reviewed at the Planning Services counter at 1450 KLO Road during the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday (excluding statutory holidays) from the date of this notice up to, and including, the date of the Public Hearing.

All persons who believe their interest in property is affected by this proposal may speak at the Public Hearing or provide a written submission for Board consideration. Please note that the Regional Board cannot receive submissions after the conclusion of the Public Hearing.

Written submissions must be received by 4:00 p.m. the business day prior to the Public Hearing.

VOICE YOUR OPINION

The following is a summary of the survey results gathered by the school district: • A large majority (84.8 per cent) do not support removing eligibility from French Immersion students that attend their catchment school; • On average people reported 3.13 km is an appropriate walk distance for elementary school students; • On average people reported that 4.04 km is an appropriate walk distance for middle school students; • On average people reported that 4.23 km is an appropriate walk distance for secondary school students; • Distance to school and age of rider were the most highly rated criteria for courtesy seats; • 63.9 per cent of the survey respondents feel that removing service for secondary students when adequate transit service exists is acceptable; • 77.6 per cent of survey respondents support increasing fees to maintain or increase service; • 84 per cent of survey respondents believe an income threshold should be used as other criteria to allow fee subsidies; and • The majority of respondents are in support of the changes to ride times, transfers and the number of students at each stop.

The largest amount of concern expressed was with raising the ride time guideline as well as transfers for younger students.

School Trustee Moyra Baxter told the View there are three major decisions

the board has to make.

“We heard from parents that they think, especially for elementary [walk distance] is too long and secondly, when do people need to have their applications in order for us to be able to get the bus routes sorted out over the summer.

That’s the second thing: what is the cutoff date going to be?” Baxter said.

“And then the third thing, which is a very big thing too, is how much do we think the bus pass should cost? The vast majority of people said they’d be willing to pay more but also there was a feeling that families with lower income or that had extenuating circumstances that they shouldn’t have to pay as much or anything.”

Baxter went on to say that the school district already has a hardship policy in place that helps some families with the cost of riding the bus.

“So we’ll be making those decisions in the next month or so, so that we can get on with it and get things sorted out for next year. We don’t want to go through what we went through this year,” Baxter said.

The feedback received in the second survey will be reviewed by the transportation steering committee as it develops the final policy and fee recommendations to the Board of Education.

Final recommendations are expected to be presented at the planning and facilities committee meeting on Feb. 5.

Preliminary design developed for Trepanier intersection signal, but no funding JOANNE LAYH Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI) district manager Steve Sirett attended last Tuesday’s committee of the whole meeting to provide Peachland council an update on phase two of the Peachland Transportation Study and discuss

next steps for the project.

MOTI began the Peachland Transportation Study back in 2015 as part of the broader Central Okanagan Planning Study that examines options to improve safety, travel times and congestion moving in and through the region.

Back in August of last year, MOTI released the results of phase one of the study, which identified a four-laning option and two “alternate routes” as long-term options for Highway 97 improvements through Peachland.

The study eliminated any bypass options, which at the time Mayor Cindy Fortin described as very disappointing.

At the committee meeting, Sirett told Peachland council the project team is continuing to work on

will be important just to make sure the highway remains safe until that long-term improvement is warranted,” Sirett said.

MOTI said they would return to Peachland for a public meeting last fall but that’s now been moved to sometime this spring.

“The minister heard pretty clearly from yourselves, the mayor and council, that additional public input was warranted on the options and wanted to make sure that the community had an opportunity to provide that feedback on all the options through phase one,” Sirett said.

Mayor Cindy Fortin said it’s been three years since MOTI has met with the community and the public is very much wanting to get together and chat.

Councillor Keith Field-

ing asked if any of the feedback would influence the results of phase one as well as phase two.

For those hoping a bypass option might be reintroduced as a result of pubic feedback, Sirett’s response was not very encouraging.

“We will provide information on all of the options that were identified in phase one as well and we’re open to feedback on all of it,” Sirett said.

Councillor Terry Condon asked if any of the options could include financial cost estimates.

Sirett said as they develop options they do include cost estimates, but when pressed by Mayor Fortin to share those estimates with the public, the manager was hesitant.

Coun. Condon also asked if the ministry would disclose the weightings they place on each of the evaluation criteria.

Sirett responded by saying the evaluation criteria isn’t weighted, they’re compared against each other, and information about their methodology would be available at the open house.

Peachland council members also took the opportunity to raise several safety concerns about the highway through Peachland.

Councillor Mike Kent said there are a number of highway improvements the district would like to see for public safety, especially for turning onto the corridor.

“When would we be able to see some decisions or some timelines on those improvements, because they are desperately need-

ed in the community,” Coun. Kent said.

Sirett said they are developing a number of short and medium term options that will be presented at the open house for feedback, in addition to others they’ve already identified, such as the Trepanier intersection signal.

Sirett said they have a preliminary design developed for the Trepanier

intersection signal, but there is no funding for construction right now.

“As far as when it’s going to occur I can’t specifically say but we’re going in the right direction,” Sirett said, adding that they will continue to work on the design, getting an understanding of what the cost impact might be and ticking off other boxes before asking for funding.

“Just in the last few days watching people try to make a left in these icy conditions and really gunning it and spinning and not getting anywhere while trucks are heading down way over what they should be, is there any way to slow the traffic down in the meantime?”

Mayor Fortin asked. “It’s quite scary and I hope it gets addressed quickly.”

Two bones to pick with the system LYONEL DOHERTY Two issues are sticking in my craw and I can’t get them out.

One is the revelation that Conservative Party money was used to pay for the private schooling of outgoing leader Andrew Scheer’s children.

Insiders are saying this leaked information is the real reason he resigned.

But the party’s executive director says the private school perk is normal practice for political parties (to cover costs associated with moving Scheer’s family from Regina to Ottawa).

Well, isn’t that a scary perk for the taxpayer.

I doubt (at least I hope) party insiders or the general public would find this acceptable.

Moving expenses I can live with, but funnelling donations to subsidize the private education of Scheer’s children is unethical and should be subject to investigation.

Why should people’s hard-earned money that they’ve donated to the party be used to fund private school for the leader’s kids? That’s crazy!

Most of us can’t afford private school for our children. Heck, for some people, annual public school fees are a financial burden.

If I was leader of a political party and it was leaked that funds were used to pay for my children’s education, I’d resign too, and fast. I wouldn’t allow it to begin with.

The second issue sticking in my craw is the news that a Summerland lifeguard who used a camera to spy on underage boys gets to keep his municipal pension.

You heard right.

Edward Casavant admitted to using a spy camera in the locker room to record young boys. The swim coach even admitted to sexually interfering with an autistic child.

Casavant, 55, reportedly resigned after he was subject to a child porn investigation. He is currently awaiting sentencing, which could see him spend five years in jail.

Despite all of this, the man is legally entitled to draw his pension, and there is nothing anyone can do to stop that. Pension rules state that personal conduct cannot preclude someone from collecting a pension.

There is something seriously wrong with this picture.

Some people may argue that he paid into his pension and is entitled to every penny. But ethically this is not right.

He severely betrayed the trust of children who looked up to him for guidance and support.

Take his pension away too?

The irony is if you did that, he would challenge this in court and likely win. That’s how twisted our justice system is.

There should be a clause in each pension (at least for those who work with children) that states any egregious (or despicable) act against children should make the plan null and void.

If people really knew what was going down on a daily basis, they would crawl into a hole and not want to come out for a long time.

In fact, I’m looking for such a hole right now.

Resident says infrastructure development a costly and wasteful three-way dog and pony show Dear Editor, After having been closed for more than 19 hours, the Trans-Canada Highway between Revelstoke and Golden has finally been re-opened.

The federal government has been collecting a federal excise tax at a f lat rate of 10 cents per litre on gasoline since 1995.

That money should all be invested in the widening of that highway to include four lanes and to maintain it to a safe standard, but that is not happening, and today a long section through central BC has become a very dangerous piece of road to travel, frequently resulting in serious multi-vehicle accidents, many of them fatal, as it continues to deteriorate, while traffic continues to increase.

Politicians a long time ago recognized that if spending those gas tax dollars was made more ‘visible’ it could translate into more votes, but the money was redirected and reassigned to be ‘invested’ in community infrastructure across the country.

Provincial governments participate in those developments, turning our community infrastructure development into a costly and wasteful three-way dog and pony show, competing for that vote.

The end result is long and costly delays for desperately needed infrastructure that is now stalled by a three-way ‘consultation’ process to determine how to get the most votes per dollar ‘invested’, before projects finally are approved.

Municipal councillors who should be making those decisions have become bit players with the MPs holding the trump cards, while our MLAs are trying to fit under the umbrella.

That is also why we see not one, but three hands on that shovel when it finally happens.

Buy or renew a dog license before February 29 to save $20 It’s the time of year for all Central Okanagan dog owners to renew or purchase a new dog license.

The Responsible Dog Ownership Bylaw requires all dogs to be licensed in the Central Okanagan. The regional district says all dog owners should keep their license up to date as there is zero tolerance and a hefty fine for unlicensed dogs.

Over 22,000 dogs were licensed in 2019.

RDCO communications and intergovernmental affairs officer Bruce Smith says a license makes it easy to return a

dog to its owner if it gets away.

Dog owners who purchase a dog license or renew an existing one before Feb. 29 will save $20 off the regular annual license fees.

Until the end of February, a license for a dog that’s spayed or neutered costs $20. If the dog isn’t spayed or neutered the fee is $60. On March 1 licenses return to the regular annual rates of $40 and $80.

Smith says renewing is quick and easy using the secure My Dog Matters App, which can be downloaded from the Apple

With the app residents also don’t have to stand in line waiting to renew or purchase a new license.

More information can be found at mydogmatters.ca/MDMApp. Here in Peachland you can also buy or renew a license at the municipal hall or if you prefer to go online, license renewals or new license purchases can also be made at rdco. com/dogs.

HEREFOR SENIORS Make vacations and travel a key component of retirement When the time comes to bid farewell to conference calls, meetings and daily commutes, retirees have open schedules to fill with whichever activities they choose. Travel is one exciting way to pass the time.

Traveling can be a rewarding prospect for active seniors, particularly those who successfully preplanned for retirement and have the income to fund various excursions.

Many seniors, both in the United States and Canada, find that travel tops their to-do lists once they retire. According to Senior Travel magazine, new travel options are emerging for newly minted retirees looking for something a little different from the status quo.

The list of destinations retirees have at their disposal is limitless. The following ideas are some of the more popular ways retirees choose to travel.

• Road trips rule. Taking to the highways and byways is an excellent way to see the country. Seniors can customize their routes depending on which places they want to visit. RV travel can be as comfortable or as rustic as travelers prefer. Many seniors spend months traveling in their campers, which offer many of the same amenities of home. Campsites and special RV hook-up sites offer the other necessities of traveling the open road.

• Genealogical tourism is popular. People hoping to trace their ancestry and visit their ancestral homelands are one of the fastest-growing travel segments. Visiting an old church in Europe where ancestors were married or buying food from a market in which a great aunt or uncle once worked

leads retirees on many international adventures. Such trips provide travelers with a unique opportunity to understand their roots up close and personal while enjoying some international travel along the way.

• Exotic tours can be exciting destinations. History buffs or adventure-seeking couples may be particularly attracted to exotic travel destinations that are slightly off of the beaten path. Travel tours may take vacationers to destinations such as excavation sites or backpacking through the rainforest. With passport in hand, seniors can go just about anywhere their desires take them.

• Enjoy a relaxing seaside trip. A seaside vacation can be the perfect trip for seniors who want to put their feet up and sip some cocktails while watching the waves lap the shores. Many beach resorts offer all-inclusive packages for different age groups. Meals, excursions and hotel rooms can be bundled into one affordable, confusion-free price.

• Go cruising. Speaking of all-inclusive vacationing, cruising seems tailor-made for those ages 50 and older because it offers the convenience of accommodations, food, entertainment, and transportation all in one. The various activities offered on the ship mean travelers can find ways to spend their time how they see fit. Cruising couples can opt to spend all of their time on the ship enjoying carefully prepared meals and entertainment or disembark and explore the various ports of call along the way.

Now that they have more free time, retirees can gear up for travel adventures to remember.

Focus on fitness at the 50+ Centre ABBY KENDALL

50+ ACTIVITY CENTRE Welcome to 2020, a new decade. For many, January is the time of year to make resolutions, set new goals, focus on health and wellness or just decide to try something new. We’ve got you covered at the 50+ Activity Centre with a variety of daily activities, monthly potluck dinners and annual special events.

If you are looking to focus on health, wellness and fitness this month there’s something for everyone. Start off your Mondays with Taking off Pounds Sensibly (TOPS) at 9:30 a.m. This group has been running for over 50 years. Each week the program offers private weigh-ins, contest prizes and rewards along with group support and education on dieting. For information please call Dorothy at 250-300-9947 or Gene at 250-575-2488.

Tai Chi follows at noon with Yvonne Wains. Tai Chi is a gentle, continuous stretching exercise that helps all ages and all abilities. Tai Chi improves balance, flexibility, coordination, memory, circulation and energy. Standing and seated classes are offered.

If you like to dance and move your hips to some fun music, join Aicha Mondays at 4:30 p.m. for Zumba Gold. Zumba Gold is a series of fitness programs specifically designed to take the exciting Latin and international dance rhythms created in the original Zumba program and bring them to the active older adult, the beginner participant, and other special populations who may need modifications for success.

Put your cowboy boots on for Line Dancing with Gloria Dale Johnson Tuesdays, 4:30 p.m. (beginner) or 5:30 p.m. for those who have more experience.

Learn the popular moves with a variety of music.

Wednesday mornings Abby Kendall teaches a Stretch, Balance and Core class at 8 a.m., which is a mix of gentle stretching movements (some chair based) as well as balance work and core exercises. The 50+ Fitness class follows at 9:15 a.m. This is a low impact, but high energy class that includes dynamic, functional warm-up movements, walking based cardio, body weight and light weight dumbbell strength work, core exercise followed by a stretching based cool down.

Ever wanted to try or find out more about clogging? Cloggers meet Wednesdays at 6 p.m. Clogging is a great way to stay in shape using dance moves that include tap and line dancing.

If you are looking for a gentle fitness class, Iron and Silk, might just be what you are looking for Thursday mornings at 10:45 a.m., with Kay Muir. This is a fun chair based class using silk scarves, light weight dumbbells, bands and more with some good old classic music.

Finally end your week the 50+ Fitness/Stretch Friday mornings at 9:15 a.m. with Abby. This is a mix of 30 minutes of low impact walking based cardio, balance, strength and core exercises, followed by 30 minutes of relaxing stretching.

Not a member? Drop in or call anytime during office hours, Monday to Friday 9:30 am – 11:30 a.m. and the office staff will be happy to assist you or provide any information. You can also call 250-767- 9133 or visit peachland50plusactivitycentre.ca.

wall of JoeAnna’s House, which opened under budget and completed before estimated time – that’s what happens when many work together on a project. To build a home away from home for families of those who are in Kelowna Hospital was the dream of the Huber family, owners of the Prestige Hotel chain. Groundbreaking happened in October 2018, and on November 21 of last year a light up ceremony marked the opening. The first clients were in residence on December 1. Located on Abbott Street just a block from the hospital, JoeAnna’s House gives family members easy access to their loved one in hospital. The Peachland Auxiliary to KGH Foundation donated $25,000 toward this project and there will be more in the future.
