Just add dirt, trees and pavers: Metro Vancouver’s new manager of metropolitan planning, regional parks and environment envisions creating an elevated park on the existing Port Mann Bridge, rather than demolishing the span.

Parks: Not just on land From page 1

Paris has the Promenade Planteé, the world’s first elevated parkway converted from an unused raised railway in the 1990s.

New York has the High Line, a similar rail viaduct in Manhattan that was saved from demolition and transformed into a popular linear park and public space.

“It’s been spectacularly successful, generating billions of dollars of associated development,” Price said.

“It’s one of the best things that’s happened in New York.”

Price couldn’t think of anything in the world like a Port Mann park across the Fraser, offering incredible mountain, city and river views.

The bridge would also fit nicely with the Experience The Fraser master plan for a vast network of trails on both sides of the Fraser River linking parks and destinations all the way from Steveston and Tsawwassen to Hope.

“You can’t go too far wrong in joining up parts of the region with greenways,” he said.

A transportation ministry spokesperson was unable to provide estimates of annual maintenance costs of the bridge or the estimated price tag to demolish it. The demolition cost is built into the new span’s construction cost.

The spokesperson said alternative uses were never considered because the existing approaches must be dismantled to make way for the lanes accessing Gordon Price the new bridge.

The green space concept was raised by Gaetan Royer, Metro’s new manager of metropolitan planning, regional parks and environment.

Royer urged the parks committee to “think big” in considering new ways to enhance the regional parks system, potentially by looking at Vancouver’s viaducts and other highways, overpasses or freeway ramps that might otherwise be torn down.

He stressed he’s not proposing a green conversion of the Port Mann nor has Metro studied the idea.

Royer offered it merely as “food for thought.”

He was also inspired by the High Line in New York.

“They put a layer of dirt on top and some pavers and it’s just a gorgeous elevated park,” Royer said.

The High Line isn’t contiguous – it’s broken up in places where the original viaduct was torn down.

Likewise, Royer said, even if the main span of the Port Mann is torn down, one or both of the approach ramps could be kept as park space.

“You could have a lookout over the water that creates access at a place that’s regionally significant and could possibly be turned into a tourist attraction,” he said. “A park does not neccessarily have to be the traditional piece of land somewhere.

As density increases, we need to learn to do things differently.”

dent known for his historic 1985 run across Canada for cancer research, was back in court Tuesday facing a domestic assault charge.

He is also charged with breaching a conditional sentence order in

relation to the Sept. 5 incident.

In January, Fonyo was handed an 18-month conditional sentence after pleading guilty to several charges, including using an unauthorized credit card and uttering threats against his wife.

At the time, Lisa Greenwood, whom he married in August 2010, said the two had argued over money, but she didn’t want him charged. However, by law,

police are required to lay charges in domestic assault cases even if the alleged victim withdraws the complaint.

Fonyo’s well-publicized struggles with alcohol and drugs over the years also resulted in the stripping of his Order of Canada medal last year.

His next court appearance is Nov. 8. sreynolds@surreyleader.com

But thanks to a woman who called police to report an erratic driver, and an off-duty officer who also saw the car “weaving between the slow and fast lane,” a tragedy was avoided, Hollingsworth said.

The white 2007 GMC Yukon was pulling a red-and-white coloured boat when a Chilliwack RCMP

officer pulled it over.

“The driver had an open can of beer in his hand,” Hollingsworth said.

Mayors set to approve gas tax hike Enough â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;yesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; votes pledged from Surrey, Vancouver and Tri-Cities

by Jeff Nagel MAYORS FROM Surrey,

Vancouver and at least five other cities are poised to force through a two-cent gas tax hike to help fund the Evergreen Line and other transit expansion projects.

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts, Vancouverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gregor Robertson and mayors from Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Langley City, West Vancouver and the District of North Vancouver issued a joint statement Tuesday saying they will vote for TransLinkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Moving Forward supplement on Friday.

The seven mayors represent 70 per cent of Metro Vancouverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2.5 million residents and hold enough populationweighted votes to force the plan through even if most of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 22 cities object.

Burnaby, Richmond and Delta mayors said they will oppose the plan.

The extra two cents a litre in gas tax would take effect in April 2012 and raise $40 million a year of the needed $70

million annually to fund the plan.

Mayors and the province would have one year to negotiate another $30 million worth of new funding sources for TransLink â&#x20AC;&#x201C; perhaps road pricing, a vehicle levy, a second regional carbon tax or other mechanisms.

If the province gets cold feet and refuses to approve new sources, the plan requires property taxes go up an average of $23 instead â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a scenario thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unacceptable to mayors in Richmond and Delta. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not going to support a package with a property tax,â&#x20AC;? Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t support other funding sources when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve not been defined.â&#x20AC;?

He predicts there will be no deal with Victoria on contentious new mechanisms, most of which would raise the cost of driving as part of a wider strategy to steer more motorists to transit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be too complex and

Dianne Watts too controversial,â&#x20AC;? Brodie said.

Surrey and Vancouver are big enough under the weighted vote system to sway the decision with just a few other smaller cities on board.

But Watts and other mayors have been busy trying to steer more cities to the yes camp and minimize the spectre of a divided region.

Yes votes were expected from TriCities mayors, who are desperate to build the long-promised Evergreen Line there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our turn,â&#x20AC;? Port Moody Mayor Joe Trasolini said of the 11-kilometre rapid transit line.

The other mayors pledging support were also expected to be on board.

North Vancouver District Mayor Richard Walton chairs the Mayors Council on Regional Transportation that brokered a tentative funding agreement with Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom in July.

West Vancouverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pamela Goldsmith-Jones is the mayors council vice-chair and Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender is the former chair, who also spent much time negotiating with the provincial government.

Others are still on the fence.

Langley Township Mayor Rick Green said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leaning against the TransLink supplement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a lot of difficulty with it,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding Metro residents are already â&#x20AC;&#x153;taxed to death.â&#x20AC;?

get virtually no usable transit service for their contributions to TransLink, he said, while they face the prospect of paying more tolls to cross the Fraser River along with potential new fees on motorists.

The supplement would allow TransLink to

deliver its $400-million contribution for the $1.4-billion Evergreen Line, ensuring the longstalled SkyTrain extension finally proceeds.

The plan would provide for RapidBus service over the Port Mann Bridge to Surrey and Langley, a new B-Line

express bus route down King George Boulevard, a Langley-White Rock bus route, more frequent SeaBus service, SkyTrain station upgrades and various other bus service increases, along with some more money for road work and cycling routes.

Surrey/North Delta Leader 7

Pot locations endanger the public Watts: Do IN THE SEPT. 27 issue of The Leader, the front page article concerning the RCMP’s marijuana grow-op initiative caught my eye, It was stated that this program is being used to bring the problem of grow-ops to the public eye, but what concerns me is that this very information can be detrimental, even highly dangerous to any new or unsuspecting homeowners or residents.

As the article suggests, sometimes the grow-ops pop back up in the same places, this

is true, and it then becomes unethical, even morally reprehensible, to have published these addresses.

If grow-op thieves present a danger to public safety, the RCMP is in fact negligent in publishing this information, because it is after the fact.

They are not preventing any crime, but providing information which could be used in further crime where the potential victim could be an innocent bystander.

I was under the impression that our police

force was obligated to do all it could to help prevent crime. This would seem to be contradictory to that position.

Furthermore, the article goes on to state that research shows homes with grow-ops are 24 times more likely to have fires than homes without, a blatant falsity as research shows statistically that there is not a difference in the number of fires in homes with or without grow-ops.

Dean M. Bay

Don’t trash North Delta I’M PUZZLED by recent criticisms

of North Delta’s appearance.

Everywhere I look, I see huge improvements over what it was like when I moved here in 1986: • Several completely refurbished streets, including 115 and116, portions of 82 and 83 Avenues, and much of Scott Road south of 70 Avenue (how quickly we forget what Scott Road was like well into the 1980s); • Extensive new sidewalks where there were gravel shoulders not long ago; • Far more street trees, creating beauty, bird habitat and better air quality; • Stunning plantings in boulevards, medians and traffic circles; • Great lampposts, landscaping and hanging baskets in the “Social Heart” along 84 Avenue; I love the library’s floral messages “READ” and “PLAY”; • Lots of attractive new housing at Delsom; • Refurbished Sungod Arena; • Refurbished entrance to the Delta Nature Reserve trail system, from Westview Drive just south of 72 Avenue; • Attractive parking area beside Watershed Park, on Kitson Parkway, where formerly there was just an ugly road shoulder; • Burns Bog boardwalk (thank you, Bog Conservation Society volunteers); • Numerous rain gardens and infiltration swales – Delta is a Metro Vancouver leader in using these landscaping features to reduce pollution of local creeks

the right thing I AM WRITING to ask Mayor Dianne Watts to rescind her invitation to George W. Bush, who is scheduled to speak on Oct. 20 at the Surrey Regional Economic Summit at the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford.

Bush is a war criminal, guilty of authorizing torture and launching an illegal war on Iraq based on lies.

Bush should not be allowed a safe haven in Surrey or anywhere else in Canada.

Thus far, the federal government in Ottawa has shamefully failed in its duty to deny entry or to arrest Bush and other officials of his administration reasonably suspected of war crimes.

That is why I am asking Watts to do the right thing and cancel Bush’s appearance.

Having a war criminal speak in Surrey will not increase the prestige or the business climate in Surrey. Rather it will be a stain on the city’s reputation.

Sick of smoke in Surrey RE: “METRO BANS smoking in parks.”

The Leader’s report suggests council believes enforcement will not be necessary. Are you kidding? There is a no-smoking bylaw on TransLink property yet you can’t wait for a bus at Surrey Central without having smoke in your face.

Just look at all the butts all over the ground at all the bus loops and Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts does nothing to enforce this bylaw or clean it up.

Stop making these bylaws if they are not going to be enforced.

I am sick of the smoke in Surrey.

the community didn’t even exist.

I’m not a partisan of any particular civic faction, but I do feel we all owe a big vote of thanks to our civic leaders and employees of the past 20-25 years who have managed to keep our property taxes relatively reasonable, while accomplishing so many physical improvements to North Delta.

As for individual rundown prop-

erties, all communities have them.

Some residents can’t afford major upkeep, and others don’t want to spend money on an older home that will soon be replaced with a new one.

However, there’s absolutely no excuse for trash and litter anywhere in North Delta.

A bingo bamboozle IT SEEMS TO ME that somebody at city hall, either on council or city managers, were asleep at the switch in regards to awarding more slots to Newton Bingo Country without having that it be contingent on completion of the $25 million in promised upgrades.

So they increased the value of the property by many times and the company flipped it without having to invest a dime.

Surprise! Surprise! Wake up city hall.

Good people in Surrey I WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU to young man who helped me when my car broke

down on the road and he pushed it back for me.

Also the dealership Messiah fixed it for free when I had no money.

There are good people in Surrey!

Ruth Christiaanse

An issue to not discuss DURING THE next civic election, all

those fighting for another term on council will conveniently ignore this issue of suite owners who are not paying the proper amount of taxes all those without suites have to pay.

This issue has been brought up by many in both local papers including by myself but nothing happened to make them pay proper school taxes and other services they now enjoy for free.

Even new candidates for council will never mention anything about this issue, which cost us lots of money in taxes.

Maple Batalia has turned himself in on assault charges.

Gurjinder Dhaliwal, 19, came to the Surrey RCMP detachment Monday and turned himself in on a warrant for an alleged attack on two people at a North Surrey Tim Hortons on Sept. 24.

Dhaliwal is accused of assaulting a man and a woman at the 96 Avenue and King George Boulevard Tim Hortons and is facing two counts of assault.

Police would not say whether one of those attacked was Batalia.

On Sunday, Sept. 25, Batalia changed her status to “single” on her Facebook site. Two friends “liked” that, and Maple responded “LOLLLL ahahahaha ur soo funni :P LOL” On Sept. 28, Batalia was gunned down on the third floor of the Central City parkade beside Simon Fraser University as she left a late-night study session.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said Dhaliwal is not a suspect in the shooting.

It could be at the car show on Main Street (see below!), or one of the many other events, like movie nights in the summer or resident parties. How about chatting with fellow dog owners at the Morgan Crossing Dog Park, or meeting during a class or workout at Steve Nash Sports Club. Or just hanging out at the coffee shops and restaurants, at a wine tasting at Everything Wine, or on a bench on Main Street. You’ll see and meet lots of the people who live and work at Morgan Crossing… and maybe even ask out your cute neighbour, Amy. Because loving where you live should be about more than just loving your stunning condo (though we have lots of those too!).

City reviews Newton casino plan Staff examining possibility of city backing out of gaming agreement

by Kevin Diakiw SURREY IS exploring the ramifications of asking the province not to grant a gaming licence to a Newton casino, a privilege won in a hard-fought battle two years ago.

Several councillors are upset after granting rezoning in 2009 for Boardwalk Gaming, which promised to renovate Newton Bingo Country at 7093 King George Boulevard. It was a highly contentious issue, but council endorsed the plan on a five-four vote in part because of a promise of $25 million in upgrades to the run-down property.

However, Boardwalk has since sold the property to Gateway Casino and Entertainment Ltd., and with that sale went any promises of improvement to the property.

Coun. Linda Hepner told The Leader last month if a vote were held today on the project, she wouldn’t support it.

Coun. Bob Bose challenged his colleagues to take action on the issue.

He moved that Surrey “serve notice” to the B.C. Lottery Corporation to withdraw from the Host Financial Assistance Agreement with respect to the Boardwalk Gaming casino agreement.

Council referred the matter to the city’s legal

department for advice.

“I’m taking the position that this is matter of public interest, and I’m fighting to have the whole thing rescinded,” Bose said Tuesday. “This is between Surrey and the (BC) Lottery Corporation.”

Coun. Barinder Rasode was happy to see Bose’s motion on Monday and hopes the city can follow through with it.

She notes when the rezoning was approved three years ago, notfor-profit groups which rely on gaming funds were pitted against the community. Now that gaming funds have dried up, she says the feelings in the community are overwhelmingly opposed to the casino.

“Everybody is very clear that we don’t need to have this gaming facility in the heart of Newton,” Rasode said Wednesday.

Resident Pat Cecchetto was one of the many lobbying for the project in 2009, and says there’s no way she’d speak in favour of the project now. She feels bad for the residents of Newton, who, she says, don’t need a casino in their midst.

“I do believe they are the victims of this,” Cecchetto said, adding she wishes she could go back in time and take back her support.

FOR FIRST MONTH WITH THIS AD EXPIRES OCT 15/11

Premier’s first throne speech promises additional money for education

by Tom Fletcher THE B.C. government

will provide more money for special-needs support in the province’s public schools, and provide new training for teachers, according to Premier Christy Clark’s first throne speech.

Lt.-Gov. Steven Point delivered the speech Monday to open a new session of the B.C. legislature. It confirms that the province’s “net zero” negotiation mandate for public sector union contracts will be imposed for the B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF), whose contract expired last June.

The BCTF has been refusing non-essential duties since school started in September, and on Monday the B.C. Public School Employers Association met to consider reducing teacher pay or imposing a lockout in an effort to force a settlement.

The BCTF is demanding wage parity with other provinces and a range of benefit improvements, as well as hundreds of millions of dollars to reduce class sizes and increase special-needs

support staff.

Education Minister George Abbott said the additional money for special needs support will be in the “tens of millions” over the next three years.

Decreasing class sizes by one student across the province would cost $150 million, and research suggests that smaller classes are far down the list of things that improve education outcomes, he said.

The speech promises “additional flexibility and choice” in educating students, adding that “these changes will be bold and represent a significant improvement in how, when and where education takes place.”

NDP leader Adrian Dix said improvements to special needs support are only coming because of a B.C. Supreme Court decision earlier this year giving the government a year to consult on class size and composition limits taken out of teacher bargaining in 2002.

“The government that lost in court on its action on class size and composition is now saying they may make some changes,” Dix said. “But in the year

that we’re in, 12,000 classrooms are outside the class size and composition limits, and they passed a law to establish those.”

The speech also commits the government to make sure teachers who “abuse their position of trust are removed and not permitted to return.”

Abbott said amendments are coming to legislation governing the B.C. College of Teachers. Victoria lawyer Don Avison reviewed the college last year and found that BCTF influence allowed teachers to return to classrooms after being convicted of serious crimes including cocaine trafficking and sexual assault of students.

Other highlights of Monday’s throne speech: • B.C.’s first Family Day statutory holiday will be Feb. 18, 2013.

• To reduce the backlog in B.C. courts, legislation is coming to relax restrictions on part-time work performed by retired judges to provide “surge capacity.”

• Prosecutors in Stanley Cup riot cases will ask for TV and radio

access to cases, which are expected to start this month.

• New legislation is

promised to restrict scrap metal sales to deter metal theft.

Diwali gala Oct. 11 SFU holds event at Bollywood Banquet Hall Black Press SIMON Fraser University will celebrate Diwali, India’s festival of lights, at a gala at the Bollywood Banquet Hall (#201-8116 128 St.) on Oct 11.

More than 300 business and community leaders, along with SFU students, faculty, staff and alumni, are expected to attend the fourth annual event in Surrey.

The evening, featuring South Asian performances and cuisine, includes a reception starting at 5:30 p.m. and dinner at 6:15 p.m.

Among speakers will be recent SFU graduate Ish Jhaj, who will talk about the soccer program she developed and delivered for young girls in Punjab this past summer.

“SFU’s Diwali event is one of the many ways in which the university celebrates Indian culture and connects with the South Asian community,” says SFU President Andrew Petter, the evening’s host, who is preparing to travel to India in November.

Funds raised from the event will go toward SFU student scholarships to support initiatives that help create opportunities for students to work, study and volunteer in the cit-

ies and villages of India, through the university’s mobility initiative.

The cultural and business-networking event is supported by the SFU-India Advisory Council and provides an opportunity for the community to learn more about SFU’s India initiatives, including the university’s India Strategy, meet council members and talk with students who are current recipients of the India mobility initiative funding.

“Diwali is a perfect opportunity to celebrate our diversity and recognize it as a key to enriching the communities in which we live and work,” says Stephen Murphy, senior vice-president, TD Commercial Banking, title event sponsor.

“Happy communities create healthy businesses and these improve the quality of life for all. I’m proud to work for an organization that respects, values and supports our cultural differences and fosters a spirit of inclusiveness that helps us succeed together.”

The cost of the Diwali event is $60 per person or $450 for a table of eight.

Dixon announced Monday (Oct. 3) she is seeking a second term on the Delta Board of Education.

“Delta School District is thriving and one reason is that we all work hard to tailor our education system in Delta to help every student achieve their full potential,” Dixon stated in a press release.

Of course, there are challenges and Dixon said she wants to continue to focus on steps that can be taken locally to enhance public education in Delta.

McDonald seeks re-election Delta councillor to run as an independent Black Press ONE OF Delta’s incumbent councillors officially announced Monday (Oct. 3) he will be seeking re-election in the Nov. 19 civic vote.

Longtime councillor and former mayoralty candidate Bruce McDonald said he will be running as an independent because he wants to represent Delta’s citizens, not a political party or a single issue.

“I believe in working together to find solutions arrived at through cooperation Bruce and comMcDonald promise,” he stated in a press release.

“I do my research and I exercise my judgment based on experience and knowledge of the complex issues which come before council. I am looking forward to serving the people of Delta if re-elected.”

McDonald, who lives in North Delta, has been popular at the polls in past elections.

First elected in 1988, he has been re-elected five times, topping the polls in four of those elections.

McDonald chairs the Environment Committee, the Hunting Regulatory Committee and is a member of the Parks and Recreation Committee.

He is also a member of

the Delta Council/School Board Liaison Committee.

He also chaired the Tsawwassen area plan

committee and subsequent public meetings that brought out sizable crowds to discuss the future of that commu-

nity, most noticeably the question concerning the proposed development of the Southlands property.

B.C. demands more talks with RCMP Ottawa gave province deadline to accept contract

by Tom Fletcher THE B.C. government needs to present a more specific proposal to bridge the gap on negotiating a new 20-year contract for RCMP services, MP James Moore said Friday.

Moore, the Conservative governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior B.C. cabinet minister, spoke to the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, three days after B.C. revealed that Ottawa has given the province a deadline of the end of November to sign a new RCMP contract.

Municipal leaders rejected that view, voting unanimously for an emergency resolution calling on the federal government to return to the bargaining table.

B.C. Public Safety Minister Shirley Bond surprised mayors and councillors last Tuesday when she announced that talks with Ottawa have broken off after four years.

Smile Cookies are gone, but the smiles theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve left in our community will last forever. Thanks to your support, Tim Hortons will be donating the entire proceeds to BC Children's Hospital Foundation.

Federal Public Safety Minister Vic Teows has since said that the federal government will begin withdrawing RCMP services by 2014 if B.C. doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sign the contract terms accepted by Saskatchewan and Alberta. Teows gave a deadline of Nov. 30.

If there is no deal, B.C. would have to reconstruct a provincial police service that was disbanded in 1950.

The RCMP has contracts with most B.C. municipalities to provide police service, and local governments are concerned about rising costs for one of their biggest budget items.

Moore said the cost-sharing formula and other major points of the RCMP deal are agreed upon. B.C. wants more input but there have been different proposals from municipalities and the province on how to do that, he said.

bender, municipal representative in negotiations, said Moore is wrong. B.C. has a specific list of proposals that has been worked out with other provinces and territories, and he has been at every negotiating session for the last year where it has been discussed, he said.

With one-third of all RCMP officers, B.C. has emerged as leader of provinces and territories still seeking a new deal.

Fassbender said he wants a mechanism to deal directly with Ottawa as pay, pension and other RCMP costs emerge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For me itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the contract management committee at the federal level that we want, to be able to sit down on an ongoing basis, not once every couple of years but day in and day out as issues arise, so that we can move forward and find solutions that are going to make sense,â&#x20AC;?

Cities oppose new spending watchdog Vote at Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Vancouver

by Jeff Nagel B.C. MAYORS and coun-

cillors overwhelmingly voted last Thursday to object to provincial plans to a create a municipal auditorgeneral.

Many delegates at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention said the planned watchdog on waste would itself be a waste of money. But after several suggestions to restrict the scope of the auditorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work, delegates approved a motion to continue working with the provincial government on the project.

Civic leaders are riled by the govermentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vow to bring in the auditor to help police spending by municipalities and regional districts. Most were not appeased by provincial promises the auditorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendations will be non-binding, that the office wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t meddle with civic policy and that the costs would be borne by Victoria. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One thing Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned in politics is donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trust,â&#x20AC;? said Cowichan Valley delegate Lorne Duncan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This whole thing is driven by an agenda of the business community to have someone on the inside to bedevil the local governments on their taxation policies.â&#x20AC;?

Cities will end up shouldering the cost of their own extra staff time involved, predicted Port Alberni Coun. Jack McLeman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t force things on us,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do not want another bureaucracy formed and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what this is,â&#x20AC;? said Cariboo Regional District director Roberta Faust. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Believe me, it will be coming out of all our taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; pockets.â&#x20AC;?

Al Siebring, a North Cowichan delegate, said UBCM needs to work with the province on the roll-out of the auditor or else cities will have no influence on what happens.

A handful of delegates spoke in support of the municipal auditor concept, saying cities should have nothing to fear from a new tool for taxpayer transparency. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not scared of a municipal auditorgeneral for our cities and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see why anybody else should be,â&#x20AC;?

Colwood Mayor Dave Saunders said.

The resolution

adopted Thursday calls the office unnecessary but endorses the UBCM executiveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy paper

on how to try to shape the outcome.

A municipal auditor was promised by

Premier Christy Clark in her leadership campaign. Community, Sport and Cultural

Development Minister Ida Chong says the auditor will not duplicate audits of municipal

books that are already required, but will compare performance of local governments to

determine best practices on major projects funded by senior governments.

of smart meters until major issues can be resolved.

“There is an important element of personal choice,” Colwood Coun.

Judith Cullington said. “Some people are sensitive to this radiation and only a small amount affects them.”

She said city councils across the province have been deluged in email by people deeply concerned about the possible health impacts.

Some civic leaders who supported the call for a moratorium said they don’t share fears about health risks but think other concerns deserve more attention, from the cost of the meter program to the potential to charge higher rates at peak times.

An initial show of hands was inconclusive so the final vote was conducted electroni-

cally – using wireless voting devices.

No delegates spoke against the resolution.

Premier Christy Clark said the smart meter installations will continue, despite the UBCM resolution.

Hydro crews have already installed 100,000 smart meters across B.C. and that’s to rise to 250,000 by later this fall.

Medical marijuana debated Defenders of the right to grow pot under a medical marijuana licence scored a small victory when they derailed a resolution that sought to require distribution be only through licensed commercial growers.

Donna Shugar, a Sunegional shine Coast Regional District director, said forcuy ing users to buy through producers might leave the poor and disabled unable to affordably get medical marijuana if they can no longer grow their own.

She said concerns about safety could instead be dealt with by reducing the number of plants a licensed user can grow.

Targets: Oil tankers, carbon and tanning beds From page 22 sewer plants when doling out infrastructure grants.

Ottawa requires big local projects in line for grants to first go through a P3 assessment to see if money can be saved by building them as publicprivate partnerships.

The issue has been hot in the Fraser Valley, where Mission and Abbotsford councils are split over whether a shared water supply expansion should be publicly or privately built. Abbotsford is now pursuing the P3 water project itself, over Mission’s objections.

Public sector unions had urged civic reps to take the anti-P3 stand.

export through the Lower Mainland.

Kinder Morgan wants to more than double the capacity of its Trans Mountain pipeline that sends oil sands crude from Alberta to its terminal in north Burnaby, where oil is loaded onto tankers that sail past downtown Vancouver.

An emergency resolution passed by UBCM delegates calls for the highest degree of environmental assessment and meaningful public consultation on any plans to ship more oil by pipeline or tanker in B.C. About 70 double-

hulled oil tankers a year are harnessed to tugs and steered by local pilots through Burrard Inlet.

Kinder Morgan is also able to send oil from the pipeline south into Washington State at Sumas.

UBCM last year objected to plans by Enbridge to build its Northern Gateway pipeline across northern B.C.

Metal, carbon and tanning Delegates also registered their concerns about wire theft, carbon offsets and the health risks of tanning beds.

The ongoing scourge of metal theft should be dealt with through consistent provincial rules to regulate metal dealers, recyclers and pawnshops, according to a Langley Township resolution that passed without debate.

Similar resolutions were advanced by Maple Ridge, West Kelowna and Greenwood.

UBCM delegates also voted to call on the province to ban youths under 18 from using indoor tanning beds.

They also backed a call to have cities’ local emission reduction projects be counted as an acceptable purchase of carbon offsets. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Call for casino rules overhaul B.C. cities are demanding tougher scrutiny of gambling due to the infiltration of casinos by organized crime.

Delegates at UBCM passed a resolution that argues the provincial Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General is in a conflict of interest because it oversees both the B.C. Lottery Corp., which runs casino gambling, and the Gaming Policy Enforcement Branch that regulates it.

Separate ministries should oversee those functions, according to the resolution, which also calls for a review of public gambling to restore confidence and a probe by the Auditor General into how charities benefit.

Brand awareness an important consideration when choosing a home

Homeowners looking for proven success The world of advertising depends on brand awareness. Seeing the Golden Arches brings to mind McDonald’s, while Kleenex is said more often than facial tissue. So it comes as no surprise that brand awareness is becoming just as important in the new home world.

“Brand awareness is really key,” says Morningstar Homes’ Vice-President of Sales and Marketing Deborah Calahan. “We knew that we had to make Morningstar a brand.”

That branding has worked, since many people have said they were looking specifically for a Morningstar home, Calahan says. That has been especially obvious with the opening earlier this year of Avondale, in Coquitlam. “(My wife) was stalking the opening of Avondale,” says homeowner Jeff Dixon.

“Morningstar’s quality and design were

something we were drawn to,” says Claudine Dixon.

The success of Morningstar’s homes is an important piece of the puzzle, Calahan says.

“Quality craftsmanship reinforces the brand,” she says. “When you’re buying (a new home) you want to know the company will back it up.”

But Morningstar isn’t the only developer that depends on brand awareness.

“Everyone knows the Bosa name,” says Jean Openshaw, the sales manager for Bosa Properties’ Viceroy. “Buying Bosa is one of the best things you can do.”

Buyers have been flocking to check out the apartments, which Openshaw attributes to the respect that many have for Bosa.

“The ... name stands for quality,” she says.

‘It has a real loft feel’

Arista: quiet family living in South Surrey

by Colin Oswin

Get in at the start of a good thing with South Surrey’s Arista.

Nestled on a quiet street in Surrey’s Morgan Heights neighbourhood, Arista is a 65-townhome project from developer Hayer Homes.

The development features two- and three-bedroom homes on a pleasant, dead-end street, while remaining close to the action in South Surrey.

Michelle Vance, marketing coordinator with Fifth Avenue Marketing, says Arista provides ready access to tons of shops at Morgan Crossing, Grandview Corners and Peninsula Village. Add that to the nearby Highway 99 and Arista is in an excellent spot.

“I find it’s the perfect location, you’re in walking distance to plenty of shops,” she says. “It’s really close to the 99. For commuting, it’s great.”

Phase one of the development has been completed, and several families have already settled in. Phase two is move-in ready.

Darren Popoff moved in to his Arista home in late May, and he gives the development two thumbs up.

He did his research before buying and found several stand-out features at Arista: its location on a dead end street, proximity to the shops at Morgan Crossing, high-quality construction and the relatively small size of the development.

“It’s very appealing, especially having a young family,” he says.

Each home at Arista comes with one big feature that stands out right away: 10-foot main-floor ceilings.

Arriving on the show home’s main floor, the extra vertical space provides the visitor with a sense of extra breathing room. It’s an open, inviting place with an added sense of grandeur.

It almost feels like there’s something subconscious going on until you remember: these are 10-foot ceilings.

These tall ceilings were a major draw for Popoff as well.

“I think it’s the only townhome that I’ve been in that has 10-foot ceilings,” he says. “It has a real loft feel.”

The kitchens – which come with granite countertops, double-basin sinks and stainless-steel appliances – come with islands to provide a barrier between the family room and great room. The space remains open, but it’s broken up enough to lend a sense of character to each room.

“

All finishings are included – we don’t do optional upgrades,” says marketing co-ordinator Michelle Vance.

coming developments, Vance says Arista’s high-quality finishings help it stand out from the pack. And when you visit the show home, what you see is what you get.

“All finishings are included – we don’t do optional upgrades,” she says.

“Price point-wise we’re right in line with our competition. So you pay the same price, but you’re getting more included.”

Popoff adds that the developer, Hayer, has been very respectful during

the process of building phase three, and the family-run business clearly cares about the families moving in.

“Being a small development, the company behind it, Hayer, is on site every day,” she says.

“If you have an issue you can deal directly with the company, you’re not just a number in a big company.”

Homes start in the mid-$300,000s.

For more information, check out aristaliving.com or call the sales centre at 604-536-8887.

Homeowners will find plush loop carpeting leading up the stairs and into the bedrooms. Up here, the ceilings reach nine feet.

The bedrooms come with tons of storage. The closets aren’t walk-in, but they are impressively wide.

Two full bathrooms are located upstairs, with porcelain tiles and granite countertops. The master ensuite comes with a walk-in shower, while the main bathroom contains a deep, luxurious soaker tub.

You will never lack space at Hayer Homes’ Arista development in South Surrey. With 10-foot ceilings on the main floor and an open-plan layout, homeowners will be impressed with the high quality of the finishings.

Coach says young team needs time to reach potential

Devils preaching patience

by Rick Kupchuk THEY’RE AT .500 very early in the Pacific

International Junior Hockey League season.

But the North Delta Devils are “a long way from where we need to be,” according to head coach Grant Armstrong.

“We haven’t come together as a unit,” he said, citing Tuesday night’s 5-0 loss in Ladner to the Delta Ice Hawks as an example.

“We’re working in practice to get everyone to buy into the systems. But we’re young.

Delta had nine 20 year-olds and we had three.”

Age aside, Armstrong is happy with the group of players in the Devils black-andred uniforms, saying it will take some time for the young players to “fit in and feel comfortable.”

The inexperience showed against the Ice Grant Hawks, as North Delta Armstrong was outshot 41-20 and dominated play for all 60 minutes. John Proctor put the home side ahead 1-0 after 20 minutes, Bryon Maxwell and Anthony Brito tallied in the second period, then Kody Botterill and Spencer Traher added to the total in the third.

Armstrong listed 17-year-old Aldergrove native Jacob Wensley and 18-year-old Levi De Waal of Coquitlam as two rookie forwards who have handled the adjustment to junior hockey well.

After Tuesday’s frustrating loss, things don’t get any easier for the Devils tonight.

They are on the road to face the Richmond Sockeyes, who have not only won each of the four games they have played this season, but have posted shutouts in all four

“We haven’t come together as a unit.”

TYLER GARNHAM / CONTRIBUTOR

Darren Asuncion of the North Delta Devils chases a Delta Ice Hawks opponent during Tuesday’s PIJHL game in Ladner. The Ice Hawks won 5-0. games as well while outscoring the opposition 31-0.

“It’s quite a feat,” admitted Armstrong.

“They have a mix of young and old, all with a lot of skill.

“But they haven’t really played anyone yet.”

Three of Richmond’s four wins have come against the Mission Ice Breakers and Ridge Meadows Flames, two teams off to

0-5 starts.

After tonight’s game in Richmond, the Devils face-off against the Grandview Steelers Sunday afternoon at the Burnaby Winter Club.

Pegasus loses first game in league play Men’s soccer team to compete at national tournament in Quebec

by Rick Kupchuk JUST DAYS before competing at the Challenge Trophy national championship tournament in Brossard, Quebec, ICST Pegasus lost for the first time in Vancouver Metro Soccer League play this season.

Pegasus was blanked 2-0

by Surrey United Firefighters Friday night at Newton Athletic Park, falling three points out of first place in the Premier Division with a 2-1-1 (wontied-lost) record.

Ryan Reynolds assisted on both Surrey goals, crossing to Andrew Proctor for the first tally early in the game, then firing the ball off the Pegasus goal

post before it was put in the net

by Niall Thompson.

United is 2-0-1 and in fifth place in the Premier Division. They host Columbus FC Saturday at 3 p.m. at Newton Athletic Park.

The Delta Hurricanes picked up their first win in the Premier Division, blanking the Coquitlam Metro-Ford Wolves 2-0. Hamzah Gurung netted both goals, scoring the winning goal in the 81st minute, and adding an insurance goal on a pass from Joti Thind with just minutes to play.

The 1-0-2 Hurricanes host Westside FC Sunday at noon at John Oliver Park.

Pegasus began play at the

national tournament yesterday against New Brunswick, then will face Saskatchewan this afternoon in their final round robin. Two teams from the three-team pool will advance to an eight-team playoff Saturday through Monday.

Q North Delta SC earned its first win of the season and moved out of last place in the Fraser Valley Soccer League’s Premier Division with a 4-3 victory over Langley United Saturday at Delsom Park Nick Baronian, Paul Bolina, Lucas Johns and Adam Bingham were the North Delta goal scorers.

North Delta now has a 1-0-2 record, tied for seventh place

with Langley, and will visit the Surrey FC Athletic Club Sunday evening at 6 p.m. at Newton Athletic Park.

The Athletic Club lost for the first time this season last Sunday, falling 1-0 to the Abbotsford Mariners. Athletic Club is tied for third place with a 2-0-1 record.

Q The quarterfinal matchups for the Carlsberg Pacific Cup have been determined for the weekend of Oct. 28-29.

The inter-league knockout competition features eight teams from the Vancouver Metro Soccer League, and four each from the Fraser Valley (FVSL) and Vancouver Island (VISL) leagues.

SECTION C0-ORDINATOR: RICK KUPCHUK (PHONE 604-575-5335)

Four VMSL teams remain, and all four will play at home, three of which are local teams.

Surrey United will host the Port Moody Gunners of the FVSL on Saturday at 3 p.m. at Cloverdale Athletic Park, while the defending B.C. champion ICST Pegasus will host Gordon Head of the VISL the same day at 4 p.m. at Newton Athletic Park.

On Sunday at noon, Delta Hurricanes host Surrey FC Athletic Club of the Fraser Valley league at John Oliver Park.

SEWER MAINTENANCE

Head ‘is OK’ after injury Local rugby player competes at Rugby World Cup

by Nick Greenizan ADAM KLEEBERGER

Sep 19 – Oct 21, 2011 Metro Vancouver will be performing maintenance work in the early morning hours on a section of sewer pipe that runs through Delta’s Watershed Park. This work will include using a magnesium-based spray for corrosion control. Park users and local residents may notice a sewer odour, which is normal for this maintenance work.

We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

received a clean bill of health from doctors after suffering an apparent head injury Saturday in a nasty collision during Canada’s final game of the Rugby World Cup against the host New Zealand All Blacks.

But for the White Rock flanker, what hurt more than the injury – which bloodied his face and his popular Viking-esque beard – or the 79-15 loss to the powerhouse All Blacks, was watching a day later as underdog Tonga upset France to close out the pool-play portion of the tournament.

The victory bumped the Tongan side into third place in Pool A, and knocked Canada – who finished with a 1-2-1 record – into fourth. A third-place finish would have automatically qualified Canada for the next world cup, set for 2015, and also ensured more funding and extra matches for the program.

Tonga beat France by a single try, 19-14.

In Saturday’s tilt with New Zealand, Kleeberger – who played junior rugby with the Bayside Sharks before joining the University of Victoria Vikings and later, the national team – was injured in the 77th minute and left the game with a bloody nose after a collision.

He seemed to be in

good spirits the following day, when he wrote on social media site Twitter, “Head is OK. Got a CT scan done after the game and they confirmed that there’s still nothing in there!”

Before leaving the game against the All Blacks, Kleeberger had been one of Canada’s best players; he had 22 tackles before leaving the game.

Always store your cellphone carefully.

Don’t “test” 9-1-1 to see if it’s working.

If you dial by accident, stay on the line so we can ensure you’re okay.

And though Canada did not get the results they were hoping for at the World Cup, they did bring rugby into the national spotlight at home, in part, at least, to Kleeberger, whose long, blond beard garnered attention from media and fans before the first World Cup game was even played.

Canada became a favourite of New Zealand rugby fans, and many spectators at Canada games – including a handful of local residents who made the trip – donned fake “Kleeberger” beards in support of the team.

“We’re trying to raise the profile of the sport here in Canada, and get more young kids involved, so I really hope we can do that,” Kleeberger told Black Press in the summer, prior to leaving for New Zealand.

The 27-year-old Semiahmoo Secondary grad even gained support from other Canadian athletes. After he was injured Saturday, former Canadian Football League running back Jesse Lumsden – who is now trying to qualify for the next winter Olympics as a bobsledder – wrote on Twitter that he was “Bummed to see Kleeberger have to leave the match. He is a beast. Growing a beard for Sochi 2014. Gotta start now!”

While many of his teammates returned to Canada earlier in the week, Kleeberger stayed in New Zealand to travel with family members.

Hurricanes hammered by ’Hawks at Seaquam

Two Surrey schools also win in preseason play

by Rick Kupchuk THE SEAQUAM Seahawks evened

their non-conference B.C. High School football Association record at 2-2 (won-lost) Saturday afternoon, trouncing the Rick Hansen Hurricanes 33-6 at Seaquam Secondary.

The Seahawks wasted little time scoring enough points for the win, forcing a fumble on the opening kickoff on a hit by Taylor Northway to set up a seven-yard touchdown run by Jarren Ralf on the second play of the game.

Mark Lego rushed for 138 yard and three touchdowns, helping Seaquam to a 13-0 lead after one quarter and 20-0 at halftime. After Lego’s third score upped the difference to 26-6, Ralf caught a pass from Adam Dobie to complete the scoring.

Northway led all Seaquam play-

ers on defence with seven tackles, with Chris Hoegler making six.

The Seahawks are at home Saturday, to face the South Delta Sun Devils at 1:30 p.m.

The Holy Cross Crusaders picked up their first win in non-conference play, edging the Abbotsford Christian Knights 13-6. The Crusaders begin their Senior AA Southern Conference schedule tomorrow (Friday) with a visit to Langley to play the Saints.

The Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers completed a perfect non-conference schedule with a 62-14 victory over the New Westminster Hyacks.

The Panthers, who have outscored the opposition by 94 points in those four games, open their Senior AAA Eastern Conference schedule tomorrow at 3:15 p.m. against the Centennial Centaurs at Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary.

■ Seaquam’s junior high school

team travelled to Vancouver last week, and edged the Eric Hamber Griffins 34-33 in overtime.

Seahawks quarterback Sam Orlick led an offence that featured running backs Josh Hudniuk, Terel Belanger, Filip Demcak, and Daniel Young, and receivers Panos Bountoulousis and Thomas Collier-Pandaya. Seaquam racked up more than 280 yards of offence.

Screen play blocking from offensive linemen Nolan Spalek, Syon Jalandoon, Neil Chand and Trevor Basran also contributed.

Hudniuk ran for more than 100 yards and a pair of touchdowns, while Belanger scored three times, including the game-tying major in overtime on a 10-yard run.

Hudniuk’s convert was the gamewinning score.

Spalek with 11 tackles, Young with nine, and Basran with seven were the defensive leaders.

Valley West tied for first Major Midget hockey team has won three of four games

by Rick Kupchuk THE VALLEY West Hawks are in a threeway tie for first place in the B.C. Hockey Major Midget League, after splitting a two-game series with the Okanagan Rockets last weekend at the University of British Columbia’s Thunderbird Winter Sports Centre.

The Hawks took a 2-0 lead after 20 minutes of the first game Saturday, but surrendered four third period goals in a 6-4 loss.

Ram Brar of Surrey tallied twice, both on assists from Semiahmoo skaters Sam Chatterly and Matthew Cox. Jerret Smith and Mitchell Friesen, both of Surrey, had the other Hawks goals.

In Sunday’s rematch, Okanagan twice took one-goal leads in the second period, only to have Valley West tie the game on each occasion.

Friesen netted what proved to be the gamewinning goal in the last minute of play in the period. Latrell Charleson and Spencer Meyer of Surrey, and Langley’s Daniell Lange with his second of the game, completed the scoring in the third period. Nick Coltura of Langley also scored for the Hawks.

With three wins and a loss in four games, Valley West is tied with

the Cariboo Cougars of Prince George and the Greater Vancouver Canadians for first place. Valley West hosts the Cougars for two games next weekend, facing off Saturday at

2:15 p.m. and Sunday at 3:15 p.m. Both games are at the Langley Events Centre.

■ Three Hawks players are among the top four in league scoring, with Friesen

leading all MML snipers with three goals and six assists. Meyer and Danton Heinen of Langley are tied for third, both with a league-high four goals and three assists.

soccer club was all but perfect in its first weekend of home games in B.C. Soccer Premier League (BCSPL) play last weekend at Cloverdale Athletic Park.

Five boys teams and five girls teams were in action over the two days, winning eight games and tying the other two. All but one game was against opposition from Thompson Okanagan FC. United is one of eight clubs chosen to be members of the BCSPL in its first season. The teams are playing a short season this fall, prior to the league kicking off its first full schedule in March.

Surrey won 3-0 in the under-13 boys game. Karan Kular scored from 25 yards out to open the scor-

ing, then Brendan Skinner found the net from the same spot in the 52nd minute.

Brandon Canuel headed home a corner kick to complete the scoring. Surrey is 2-0-1 (won-tied-lost), in a fourt-way tie for first place.

In boys under-14 play, United cruised to an easy 5-0 victory.

Kerman Pannu and Cole Basarich had the home side up 2-0 before the game was a half-hour old. Thompson got to within

Jeevin Kand was a standout in the Surrey midfield.

United is 2-1-0, and has a two-point lead atop the standings.

Thompson Okanagan needed just three minutes to take the lead in the under16 boys game, and dominated play in the first 30 minutes.

But Bavi Dhaliwal scored on a pass from Connor Hildebrandt to tie the game before half time.

Kyle Sohi passed to Rojan Bozaorgzadeeh for the winning goal two minutes into the second half. Hildebrandt and Dilpreet Brar added insurance goals.

Surrey has won all

three of its games this season, and is tied for first place in the boys under-16 group with Mountain United FC of Burnaby.

After tying their first two games, Surrey moved into third place in the boys under-17 standings with a 2-1 win over Mountain FC. Down 1-0 after Mountain scored in the 56th minute, United got the win when Josh Brown headed home a pass from Connor Riley to tie the contest, then set up Sean Northcote for the winner.

Playing with a short roster, United edged Thompson Okanagan 2-1 in the boys under18 game. Connor Prentice opened the scoring for Surrey just four minutes into the game, then broke a 1-1 tie with his second of the game in the 66th minute. United is 2-01, and in a three-way tie for second place.

United and Thompson Okanagan played to a 1-1 tie in girls under-13 play, with Kacee Ougden scoring the Surrey goal. Bayley Wachsmuth was a standout in the United goal, and Sarah Parker played an excellent game on defence.

Surrey is 1-1-1, and in fifth place.

The United under15 girls team posted an easy 5-0 victory.

Jenna Baxter netted a hat trick, Sam Donald and Harmen Billen also scored, with Alanna Carmichael and Savannah Williams sharing the shutout.

United has won both games it has played in the under-15 girls division.

United and Thompson Okanagan played to a 1-1 tie in under16 girls play. Chelsea Harkins put Surrey ahead in the 77th minute, but the visitors got a tying goal from the penalty spot in injury time.

United took advantage of a late goal in the girls under-18 game, and won 1-0.

Carina Lauzon scored the winner, after the Thompson Okanagan goalie couldn’t handle a header from Jesse Holowaty.

Fiesta in Surrey – for a good cause Latin American-themed event Oct. 15 will help raise muchneeded funds for the Surrey Christmas Bureau

by Sheila Reynolds

I

DANCE PHOTOGRAPHER - BRENDAN LALLY

Christmas bureau needs a home

t’s a first for the Surrey Christmas Bureau.

But it’s hoped ¡Viva Surrey!, an evening of Latin American music and dance, becomes an annual fundraiser for the local charitable organization.

“It’s good to do something different,” said SCB coordinator K.C. Gilroy, noting donated dollars are becoming more difficult to come by due not only to donor fatigue, but to donor caution as well.

“Their own finances might not be as good as in the past.”

Gilroy, who lived in Mexico in the ‘70s, said she has always wanted to put on a fiesta of sorts in Surrey.

She’s noticed the number of Latin Americans living in Surrey has been growing significantly over the years and thinks such an event will be the perfect opportunity for people to learn about their neighbours and their culture.

And, of course, have fun and support a great cause, said Gilroy.

Planned for Oct. 15, the evening will include four Surrey-based groups.

First up will be Flamenco del Mar, a troupe that will perform several passionate song and both flamenco and Spanish dance pieces.

Alejandro Dancers from Portal A Tango (left) will perform, as will the band Ruiz and his Moviedolo (above), at the upcoming ¡Viva Surrey! fundraiser for the family will Surrey Christmas Bureau. then take their ancient instruments to stage as Mayan Marimba, playing a selection of traditional marimba music.

Portal al Tango, featuring Bobbi and Patricia Lusic, will then grace the dance floor, followed by the toe-tapping beat of Moviendolo, a salsa band led by Edwin Martinez.

There will even be a salsa lesson to get the crowd “up and moving,” said Gilroy.

Traditional Mexican food from Taqueria Jalisco will be available for purchase, as will beer and wine. And attendees will be invited to bid on a selection of silent auction items. ¡Viva Surrey! takes place Oct. 15, 6-11 p.m. at Espirito Santo Hall, 12918 112 St. Tickets are $15, available by calling 604-581-9623.

Toy depot space needed to provide holiday help

by Sheila Reynolds JUST LIKE DECORATING the tree, the Surrey Christmas Bureau’s hunt for a toy depot has become an annual tradition.

And this year isn’t any different.

The charitable organization needs about 8,000 sq.ft. of space, preferably with a loading bay and indoor plumbing, so that it can assist those in need prior to the

holidays.

The large space will be used as a place families can register for help, and where donated toys and gifts can be sorted and distributed prior to Christmas. An early start is necessary to meet the need in the community.

The Surrey Christmas Bureau has been collecting and distributing toys and hampers to those in need for more than 40

years. Upwards of 1,600 families including 5,000 children were helped by the organization last year. About 2,000 families are expected Registration for those requiring assistance usually begins in early November.

Anyone who knows of an appropriate toy depot space that is available as soon as possible until January, is asked to call 604-581-9623.

Ukulele ensemble celebrates in Surrey Concert Oct. 15 to mark Langley Ukulele Ensemble’s 30th anniversary

by Natasha Jones WHEN Leonard Maltin was persuaded by ukulele-playing friends to watch The Mighty Uke, the famous movie critic remarked that the highlight “was learning about the school program in Langley, Van-

couver, that introduces kids to strumming and, before long, has them playing Flight of the Bumblebee and the William Tell Overture.”

Maltin called the bonus segments of the documentary, which featured the Langley Ukulele Ensemble

(LUE), “an absolute delight.”

Langley residents who have not yet had a similar experience with the four-stringed instrument, which got its name from the Hawaiian for ‘dancing flea,’ will have the chance at the Langley

Ukulele Ensemble’s 30th anniversary concert on Oct. 15.

The event, which begins at 7:30 p.m., will take place at the Bell Centre, 6250 144 St., in Surrey. For tickets, call 604-507-6355, or buy online at www.bellperformingartscentre.com.

The concert will feature not only the current members of the ensemble, but many who belonged to the group over the past three decades.

These include James Hill, and Paul and Mark Luongo, whose father, Peter, is the

music director of the LUE. Other performers include J. Chalmers Doane, whom Peter Luongo describes as “the father of the Canadian ukulele,” and Exit 58, a trio of former ensemble members, Kendra Simonetto (formerly Croft), Chris

“Reshaping Lives”

Parsons and Laura Day. Simonetto said she is looking forward to seeing the old alumni members, some of whom she hasn’t seen for more than 10 years.

“It will also be great fun to be back on stage playing the ukes with the ensemble,” she said.

Clearly, the LUE had a profound influence on her life. “It taught me stage presence, public speaking and how to perform in front of live audiences of any size,” she said.

“It helped me gain confidence with people during my awkward teen years. It allowed me to explore music and fall deeper in love with the art of making music, and perhaps most importantly, it was through the ensemble that I met lifelong friends, many of whom I remain best friends with even today,” she said.

It was also through the LUE that she came to realize a love for teaching and leadership.

She is now an elementary school teacher in Langley.

Simonetto, Parsons and Day have all remained Langley residents, and their name, Exit 58, refers to the 200 Street exit from Highway 1.

Performing at the concert will be thrilling.

“For us as a group, it really represents coming ‘full circle’ from our time in the ensemble,” she said.

“It is a sort of homecoming, being back on the same stage with our own trio over 10 years

Group: DVDs, CDs at concert From page 40 later alongside Peter Luongo. So much in our personal lives has changed (getting married, having children) that it will be really neat for our family and friends to see us back with the LUE one more time.”

Exit 58 performs throughout the Lower Mainland, at private functions, weddings, corporate functions (hosted by Rotary, Coast Capital Savings, etc.), charity fundraisers, art shows, community events such as the BC Summer Games torch lighting ceremony, and monthly performances at a restaurant in White Rock.

For the past 17 years, the Langley Ukulele Ensemble has been

invited to perform in Hawaii, and so the anniversary concert would not be complete without Polynesian dancers Halau Hula Ka’Uhane O Ka Pakipika, who will give a vibrant and rousing edge to the concert.

Many of the current ensemble’s members played in an invitationonly concert at the start of the 2010 Winter Olympics .

They have played for Rick Hansen and a host of other celebrities, and thanks to The Mighty Uke, they have followers across the globe.

Last September’s concert at the Cascades Summit Theatre in Langley was filmed, and a DVD of the concert will be on sale, along with CDs of the Langley Ukulele Ensemble, at the Bell Centre.

Surrey/North Delta Leader 47

He finds it easy to be green THERE’S A GOOD REASON that Travis Olson’s grass is looking a little greener these days. As a recent graduate of Kwantlen’s Turfgrass Management Diploma program, Travis has just been named the winner of the 2011 Canadian Golf Superintendents Association’s Toro “Future Superintendent Award.”

“I feel very fortunate working for such great mentors as superintendent Neil Pilon and assistant superintendent Alex Inglis, both of whom have had huge influences on my life and career,” said Olson. “There is no doubt in my mind that this experience has been the most important in my career to date.”

As the winner of this year’s award, Olson will travel to Scotland and take part in a six-week training and work experience program.

He will also travel to Minneapolis to tour Toro’s headquarters and attend the Canadian International Turfgrass Conference and Trade Show in Calgary next February as a guest of the Canadian Travis Olson Golf Superintendent’s Association. Toro will also award a personal computer to Kwantlen’s School of Horticulture in recognition of Olson’s achievement.

“We’re all very proud of Travis’ achievements,” adds David Davidson, associate dean of Kwantlen’s School of Horticulture.

“He’s a great representative of the high quality of students that are graduating from our programs. Travis and his instructors truly deserve all the recognition they’re receiving with this award.”

Olson was also selected for the 2010 Western Canada Turfgrass Association Scholarship Award and the 2011 School of Horticulture award in recognition of his outstanding achievements.

Surrey’s Harvey McEwan (above) and Arnie Schwab (below) will be inducted by the Greater Vancouver Motorsport Pioneers Society this weekend in Vancouver.

United for afterschool activities THREE-YEAR School’s Out funding com-

mitments by United Way of the Lower Mainland are helping Surrey children to be active, social, and engaged after school.

School’s Out is recognized as the largest grant in the region supporting after-school programs in some of the Lower Mainland’s most vulnerable neighbourhoods.

wo Surrey classic car experts – restorer, appraiser and author Harvey McEwen and legendary custom car upholsterer Arnie Schwab – will be honored by being inducted by the Greater Vancouver Motorsports Pioneers Society (GVMPS) at its 11th-annual induction ceremony on Oct. 9.

The afternoon of history and camaraderie runs from 12-4 p.m. at Vancouver’s Croatian Cultural Centre, 3250 Commercial Drive.

Cars that McEwen, a Surrey resident, has restored over the years include a 1930 Packard 745 phaeton, a 1953 Mercedes 300 S roadster, a 1947 Ford Sportsman woody convertible, a Ferrari GT 330 GT 2+2, a Jaguar E-Type roadster, a 1969 Plymouth GTX Hemi convertible, a 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1929 Packard Larkins convertible sedan and a 1953 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon.

A leading authority on classic cars, McEwen has spent six decades involved in every facet of the classic car hobby.

Surrey resident Arnie Schwab was a teenager when he started doing pick up and deliveries for a Vancouver auto upholstery company which led to him learning the craft of doing seats, carpets and tops for automobiles, custom cars, hot rods, boats and airplanes.

Among the beneficiaries: • Big Sisters of BC Lower Mainland will receive $105,000 for the Surrey Study Buddy Program.

• Boys and Girls Clubs of South Coast BC will receive $180,000 for the Surrey Boys and Girls Club.

• DIVERSEcity Community Resources Society will receive $360,000 for Power Hour2.

Over the next 40 years, the master upholsterer has been working with collectors and restorers to make older vehicles into showpieces.

The GVMPS ceremony will honor 15 individuals who made major contributions in the early days of motorsports in the region. This includes hot rodding, custom car building, drag racing and land speed racing, sports car and road racing, motorcycling, power boat racing as well as car collecting and restoration.

• Options Community Services will receive $359,436 for S.T.A.R.R. Prevention Programs at James Ardiel and K.B. Woodward schools.

• Scouts Fraser Valley will receive $180,000 for SCOUTSabout Surrey.

• Umoja Operation Compassion Society will receive $150,000 for the Umoja After-School Program.

• Alexandra Neighbourhood

SECT ION CO-ORDINATOR: BOAZ JOSEPH (PHONE 604-575-2 744)

Keynote speakers will be Rock and Roll Hall of Fame disc jockey Red Robinson, a one time member of the Igniters Car Club, and Red’s uncle Chuck Robinson from Surrey, the first president of the BC Custom Car Club.

The GVMPS, which has already inducted 165 pioneers, is a group of enthusiasts from various motorsports activities whose goal is to recognize and record the accomplishments of people who have made major contributions beginning four decades ago..

Other pioneers being recognized this year are Bob Underhill and Alec Bennett for motorcycling, John Carlson for collector and restoration, Taylor, Soon and McNicol Racing Team, Bill Phillips and Roger Manson for hot rod, custom car and drag racing and Tom Burgess, Taisto Heinonen, Leslie and Kevin Skinner for sports car road racing.

“It is important to recognize the people involved in motorsports activities that started years ago and continue today,” says GVMPS president Jim Greenwood, a pioneer custom car striper and race organizer.

The event which includes lunch is open to everyone who is interested in motorsports. A $10 donation will be requested at the door.

House will receive $180,000 for School’s Out Club and School’s Out Play Away Day Camps.

• YMCA will receive $180,000 for YMCA BLAST (Bringing Learning to After-School Time).

“We all want children to be their best, but children age six to 12 are experiencing increased isolation and disconnection,” said Michael McKnight, president and CEO United Way of the Lower Mainland.

“Without early help, these children are at risk during their teen years.”

Innovative Urban Planning Along the Scott Road Corridor As a key urban and business centre in North Delta, revitalization of the Scott Road corridor is a significant part of the North Delta Area Plan review. to stimulate new development and revitalize existing development along Scott Road.

Current Initiatives

Report Highlights

North Delta Recreation Centre Expansion – Strengthening our Infrastructure & Community Identity

Expansion Highlights

Gymnasium concept includes retractable bleachers, a viewing platform and elevated space to accommodate stage performances.

Delta is working to meet the needs of our residents with plans for a 25,000 square foot expansion of the North Delta Recreation Centre. With a high volume of municipal business transactions taking place daily at the recreation centre and over 50% of Delta’s population situated in North Delta, demand for services at the North Delta Recreation Centre has never been higher. The expansion will enhance recreation programs, increase access to municipal business services, provide more opportunity for arts displays and programs and enlarge indoor and outdoor social gathering spaces.

In addition to the main building components, comp the project will feature: A large lobby area capable of hosting both municipal and community displays and programs

The concept for the North Delta Recreation Centre emerged from consultation

A stage that can open to the gym or lobby or close entirely to act as a separate program and meeting area

sessions with facility staff, user groups, and input from the public during the

A multi-purpose gymnasium to facilitate sports, recreation, performances,

A new home for the Reach Child and Youth Development Society

community events and large gatherings.

A municipal business centre to provide residents and businesses with access to a broader range of municipal services including bylaw enforcement, municipal finances, community planning and recreation

Outdoor exercise spaces and a community gathering space with natural terraced seating and pedestrian pathways

Mayor Jackson and Council want to hear from you on the proposed design. Email your thoughts on this design concept to mayor-council@corp.delta.bc.ca

Measures of Success

Now is an opportune time to take advantage of current market conditions to revitalize the Scott Road corridor.

Since 2000, Delta has invested over $110 million in capital projects in North Delta.

In the coming years, population growth will create many opportunities for new commercial and residential development as well as re-development of existing underperforming retail space.

Since 2000, over $72.5 million has been invested in upgrading North Delta’s engineering infrastructure including sidewalks, crosswalks, road paving and widening, street lighting, bike lanes, watermains, sewermains, drainage and other improvement projects.

Since 2000, nearly $31 million has been invested into parks capital projects in North Delta including the Mackie Park synthetic turf and baseball field, Delsom Park synthetic turf field, the Social Heart Plaza and the recent Sungod Recreation Centre fitness expansion and energy retrofit.

Since 2004, the average house assessment in North Delta increased by 81.1%.

In 2006, the final phase of a $5.4 million revitalization of 116 Street and a portion of 92 Avenue was completed. This project included streetscape improvements such as roadway reconstruction, curb extensions, street lighting, boulevard trees and left turn lanes.

In 2010, a new 100-foot aerial platform truck was brought into service at Fire Hall No. 3.

“Invest in North Delta” Mayor’s Standing Committee In response to the consultant’s report, Mayor Jackson and Council established an “Invest in North Delta” Mayor’s Standing Committee that will be open to the public and work in coordination with the North Delta Area Plan review process. The Committee will develop specific implementation measures to promote investment along the Scott Road corridor and throughout existing residential neighbourhoods to ensure the long-term vibrancy and attractiveness of North Delta.

Growing in the Right Direction - North Delta Area Plan Review We are working to improve your North Delta and moving forward with a review of the North Delta Area Plan. The process will include undertaking a comprehensive update of the current Plan, consulting with the community, updating the Plan to reflect how North Delta has evolved, address emerging issues and guide future growth and development.

Both the “Invest in North Delta” Mayor’s Standing Committee and the North Delta Area Plan Review Committee will begin their formal work this winter. Details regarding opportunities for public participation on these open door committees will be advertised prior to the start of this process.

FALL MAINTENANCE PACKAGE 1. OIL, LUBE & FILTER

Surrey residents urged to donate blood leading up to Thanksgiving and beyond which can result in more traumas requiring blood.

“Our national inventory means that no one is currently going without blood and we can draw on our reserves so that patients who need blood continue to get it,” says Yee. “We do, however, need to replenish our blood supply now and over the next six weeks and are calling on donors from the Surrey area to donate.”

In Surrey, Canadian Blood Services is calling on donors to book appointments to help meet patient needs right now by calling 1-888-2-DONATE (1-888-2366283). Equally as important is the need for donors who have already booked appointments to honour their commitment to donating blood this fall.

The Surrey blood donor clinic at #10-6830 King George Blvd. is open: • Wednesdays 1-7:30 p.m.

• Thursdays 12:30-7:30 p.m.

• Fridays 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

• Saturdays 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

4. EXHAUST SYSTEM

Change the oil, install a new oil filter and lubricate the chassis

2. BRAKES Canadian Blood Services is asking eligible Canadians to book an appointment to donate blood to help hospital patients in need as the Thanksgiving long weekend approaches.

Starting with Thanksgiving, and over the next six weeks, Canadian Blood Services will need more than 6,000 additional donors to book appointments to meet the needs of hospital patients all across Canada.

“The need for blood and blood products is constant,” says Ed Yee, director of donor and clinic services, B.C. & Yukon.

“It takes many units of blood to save a patient and since one blood donation equals one unit of blood, it can take 50 units of blood to help someone in a car accident.”

Long weekends are a difficult time to collect blood because people are away or busy with family activities.

Meanwhile, the demand for blood and blood products remains strong due in part to higher traffic on the roads,

â&#x20AC;˘ Cooking equipment is the leading cause of home structure fires and associated injuries, and is tied for the third leading cause of home fire deaths. â&#x20AC;˘ Children under five face a higher risk of non-fire burns associated with cooking than being burned in a cooking fire. â&#x20AC;˘ About two-fifths of candle-associated fires start in the bedroom.

â&#x20AC;˘ Roughly two-thirds of home fire deaths happen in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms. About one in five smoke alarm failures are due to dead batteries. â&#x20AC;˘ Home fire sprinklers can contain and may even extinguish a fire in less time than it would take the fire department to arrive on the scene.

Safety on our Streets

North Delta …

Investing in our Future As your Mayor and Council, we are proud to share with you the Corporation of Delta’s plans and initiatives for North Delta. These projects will help strengthen the services, safety, sustainability and ultimately, the community identity of North Delta, enhancing its vibrancy and spirit.

One key project we are especially excited

Mayor Lois E. Jackson

about is the planned expansion of the North Delta Recreation Centre. Be sure to read details inside on this project, as we want to hear from you on the design concept.

We also recently voted to establish an “Invest in North Delta” Mayor’s Standing Committee that will work in coordination with the North Delta Area Plan review. These initiatives will assist in guiding civic investment in North Delta to ensure the continued revitalization of our neighbourhoods and infrastructure for the long-term economic well-being of our community.

Our Engineering department has been busy completing a number of streetscape upgrades to 115 Street and will soon be starting work on 83 Avenue. We recently approved additional traffic calming measures for Sunshine Hills and will be holding an Open House in October to consult with residents in the Annieville neighbourhood regarding traffic safety.

North Delta is a great place to live and is firmly established as a prosperous, well-managed community. Strong fiscal management has allowed us to set aside the funds required for the planned North Delta Recreation Centre expansion.

As your Mayor and Council, we continue to strive to maintain top notch community standards for our residents and businesses.
