SURREY – The Laura Szendrei murder case has been adjourned to Friday, when a date will be fixed for Justice Robin Baird to deliver his decision whether the North Delta teen’s killer will be sentenced as a youth or as an adult. Last week a convicted murderer called on as a defence witness testified that Szendrei’s killer will have a particularly hard time if he’s sent to Kent federal penitentiary in Agassiz.

Surrey may start fining dishonest homeowners

SURREY — The City of Surrey may start fining homeowners who claim they don’t have a secondary suite, but in fact do. Homeowners doing so will be subject to a $1,000 fine, if a corporate report suggesting the changes is passed at a council meeting Monday night. In 2010, council approved changes to the city’s zoning bylaw to allow secondary suites. Then in 2011, the city introduced a secondary suite service fee, which is currently $495 per suite per year. When that fee was introduced, the city’s records show there were 17,300 properties with a suite. Since then, the city’s inventory of suites has grown to 24,150. Once a suite fee is attached to a property, the only way to remove it is if the owner arranges for an inspection by a bylaw enforcement officer to confirm the suite no longer exists.
