THINGS TO DOTHISWEEKEND

HeritagegetsareprieveHistoric homesprotected for one yearin Queen’s [email protected]

The City of NewWestminster hasimposed a one-year moratorium ondemolitions of heritage homes in theQueen’s Park neighbourhood.

While staff explores the idea andconsults with the community aboutcreating a heritage conservation areain Queen’s Park, council has approveda one-year “heritage control period”requiring all single-family residentialhomes constructed on or before Dec.31, 1966 to apply for a heritage alter-ation permit for demolitions, renova-tions to the front or sides of the build-ing’s exterior or alterations to the roof.

“Residents are eager to expand onthe conversation about heritage homeconservation in Queen’s Park,” saidCoun. Jaimie McEvoy, chair of theQueen’s Park neighbourhood herit-age study working group. “During thisphase we will discuss protecting whatmakes this neighbourhood unique,while at the same time finding oppor-tunities to encourage heritage conser-vation.”

A heritage conservation area is a setof policies aimed at conserving the her-itage features and feel of a neighbour-hood.

“I was on the heritage committeewhen I was first elected in ’96. Queen’sPark was trying to get the city to turntheir area into a heritage precinct.There was always a reason why wecouldn’t do it,” said Coun. Chuck

Another one bites the dust.The 12th Street Music Fes-

tival committee has announcedthat it’s cancelling this year’sevent, which had been movedto Sunday, July 17 from Sun-day, July 24, so it wouldn’t beon the same weekend as theUptown Live street festival.

“We tried to make the newdate work.We just didn’t getthe interest we usually do,”said Liz Brabbins, presidentof theWest End Business As-sociation. “This time of year,a month before, we’d usuallyhave 100 booths signed up.Wehad eight. I have eight applica-tions.”

Brabbins said the festival hasbecome an important eventfor changing the identity of thestruggling business corridor.She said the group hopes tohold it again next year – in itsprevious time slot.

“The competition with otherevents has meant that many ofour vendors had previous com-mitments and our major spon-sor chose to move to anotherevent,” she wrote in an emailto the Record. “The increasedinsurance liability requirementfor our beer garden made thispopular feature a non-start-er this year.There have beenmany unintended consequenc-es in changing the date andtherefore, rather than producean inferior event, we felt it bet-ter to postpone it with the in-tention of returning next year.”

While the festival was able toline up another sponsor, organ-izers said there was no pointputting sponsorship money

More food offerings may beserved up atWestminster PierPark this summer, but beer andwine won’t be on the menu.

While many locals love thetreats offered at the city’s Eats atthe Pier concession, the city hasapproved a trial street food vend-ing project at Pier Park to givefolks a variety of dining choic-es. Under this summer’s pilotproject atWestminster Pier Park,food vendors will be able to op-erate on the parking lot at thewest entrance to the park – pro-vided it gets permission from theproperty owner.

“This approval is in princi-ple as the city does not own thisproperty,” said Diane Perry, thecity’s manager of community de-velopment. “We could make itavailable for a food truck loca-tion, as part of the overall foodtruck program, if staff are ableto obtain approval for such fromthe owner of the property.”

A staff report states that Eatsat the Pier had “relatively mod-est” sales in its inaugural 2015season and required an operat-ing subsidy from the city. Streetfood vendors would be requiredto offer food that’s different anddistinct from Eats at the Pier.

“Expanding the street foodprogram intoWestminster PierPark has the potential to helpWestminster Pier Park become adestination for food and bever-ages by leveraging off the currentpublic interest in food trucks,street vending and the uniqueriverfront setting of the park,”said a staff report.

Council recently asked staff toreport on the feasibility of serv-

ing beer and wine at Eats at thePier but has learned that theprovincial liquor licence andcontrol branch doesn’t issue li-cences to outdoor concessionstand operations.

The city, however, can applyfor a special occasion liquor li-cences to serve alcohol at specialevents hosted by the city or non-profit organizations.

Staff note that new liquorregulations proposed for 2017would allow municipalities tocreate a bylaw allowing con-sumption of liquor in a spe-cial public place, such as a city-

owned park.While the city won’tbe able to sell alcohol, the pro-posal would allow people tobring a bottle of wine to a picnicin the park.

Coun. MaryTrentadue, whoput forward the original motionabout selling wine and beer atEats at the Pier, thinks the spe-cial occasion licence is a “goodstart” to serving beer and wine atWestminster Pier Park.

Coun. Chuck Puchmayr op-poses the idea of having the cityserve alcohol in the park, notingit isn’t a revenue generator andcould preclude younger city em-

ployees from working at the con-cession as they’re not 19 yearsof age.

He doesn’t think it’s necessaryfor people to be able to buy al-cohol when taking their kids andgrandkids to the park.

“I don’t feel it’s that impor-tant that we are able to buy analcoholic beverage outside in thepark.There is ample time to en-joy alcoholic beverages,” he said.“I support permits for specialevents that happen.”

Wesgroup Properties is changing itsplans in an effort to increase densityon the Brewery District site.

City council recently agreed toamend the site’s zoning and masterdevelopment permit amendments soWesgroup can add 42,000 square feetof additional density to future build-ings on the site, in exchange for pro-viding 84,000 sq.ft of secured mar-ket rental housing in Building 5. It alsoincreased the maximum permittedbuilding height and buildable area forfuture buildings 6 and 7, and increasedthe maximum height for buildingeight.

“We are looking to substitute 84,000square feet of strata residential with se-cured market rental,” said Evan Alle-gretto, director of development for theWesgroup. “To do so we are asking for42,000 square feet of strata residen-tial.We are looking to specify the floor-plates and building heights.”

Council also agreed to provide aminimum requirement for 65,000sq.ft. of health-care office and/or med-ical space in certain parts of the site,and to add “microbrewery, winery anddistillery” and “commercial school” tothe list of permitted uses.

Located on East Columbia Street,a number of buildings are still in theworks for the master-planned site.Three commercial buildings at the siteare completed and occupied, and theproject’s first residential building iscurrently under construction.

Building 5, which had been slated tobe 100 per cent strata residential, willnow be 50 per cent rental and 50 percent strata.

“Why is secured rental important tothe community? Secured rental pro-tects tenancy long-term,” Allegrettosaid. “It means the owner of a rent-al building cannot evict a renter in thesame rules as a strata owner would beallowed to. It is more affordable. Rentincreases are capped. Currently thereis a huge lack of supply in the rentalmarket.”

As part of its rezoning application,Wesgroup consulted with the com-munity and commissioned a survey ofarea residents.

While most people in the neigh-bourhood were supportive of the proj-ect, Allegretto said those who opposedcited concerns about traffic, too muchdensification and parking issues.

“We are proposing to add additionalheight to buildings 6, 7 and 8. Build-ing 6 has six additional storeys, build-ing 7 has two storeys and building 8has five storeys,” Allegretto said.

A petition calling on the NewWestmin-ster School District to beef up staffing levelsof child and youth care workers is making therounds.

Natalie Lawy, chair of the parents adviso-ry council at Lord Kelvin Elementary School,started a Change.org petition asking the schoolboard to use part of the almost $300,000 inadministrative savings the province returnedlast month and “find a better solution.” Nearly160 signatures have been collected.

Right now, the district has four child andyouth care workers who support at-risk chil-dren and their families. Elementary schoolsRichard McBride, LordTweedsmuir, LordKelvin and Qayqayt each had a child andyouth care worker for the 2015/16 school year.Some of the workers, along with the grades6 and 7 students from those schools, will bemoving to the newly built Fraser River MiddleSchool this fall.

“What we’re doing is having the child andyouth care workers follow the children,” su-perintendent Pat Duncan told theRecord.“If you take students away from a school, andin significant numbers, we’re just making surethose Grade 6s and 7s, when they go to FraserRiver will have services.

“We find the greatest needs are usually in thegrades 6s and 7s, and that comes directly fromthe child and youth care workers themselves.They tell us that.”

This “realignment” means the district will bestretching the services of the child and youthcare workers to where none existed before,with staff splitting their time among more thanone school.

“What we’re trying to do is make sure all ofour students have access,” Duncan said.

But Lawy is worried that if hours aren’t in-creased and staff will have to extend them-selves, some kids won’t get the support theyneed.

“Our child and youth care workers are acritical resource.They help students who are

hungry, who cope with disorders like anxiety,who witness or experience abuse at home, whomight fall through the cracks,” Lawy wrote onthe petition page.“These students deserve allthe support we can give them.Taking awayfrom one vulnerable population to provide foranother is not the answer.”

Staff presented a plan at the operations andpolicy planning committee meetingTuesdaynight that included hiring the equivalent of onefull-time child and youth care worker.Trustees,however, requested staff amend their propos-al to allow for the equivalent of two full-timeworkers.

Board chair Jonina Campbell said as the dis-trict moves to a middle school model, there’san opportunity to have child and youth careworkers at all the elementary and middleschools.

“There’s always the challenge that we coulddo more with more money,” she added.

Staff is expected to present an updatedproposal for trustees to vote on at nextTues-day’s school board meeting.

into an event that wasn’t go-ing to be successful.

“If vendors aren’t comingout, people aren’t going tocome out.We want to do itin a big way,” Brabbins said.“We want to do it againnext year. Hopefully, if wecan figure out the date situ-ation with the city.”

Brabbins believes the mu-sic festival would have beensuccessful if it had stuck toSunday, July 24 – and thecity asked Uptown Live topick a different weekend.Some city officials have sug-gested it’s not council orstaff’s role to tell organiza-tions which dates they canhost festivals or events inthe city.

“I hear what they are say-ing.The only thing with thatis they give us money.Theyknow we are a small organ-ization.There are no oth-er events in theWest End.There is nothing else thattheWest End Business As-sociation does for the busi-nesses event-wise – this isit,” she said. “Without this

event, it shuts us down on12th Street, it shuts downthe organization.The busi-nesses, I have never seenso many vacancies on 12thStreet before. I know up-town is thriving and they aregetting lots of money andthey are building and flour-ishing on that, but at thesame time we are just dyingover here.”

Brabbins said organiz-ers received a $5,000 grantfrom the city for the event,which will be returned.While some bands had beenlined up, she said no con-tracts had been signed.

Coun. Chuck Puchmayr,who has helped organize thefestival and performed at itin the past, is disappointedbut supports the organizers’decision to cancel this year’sevent.While there was somediscussion about making theevent smaller, he said thatwasn’t something support-ed by 12th Street merchantswho would have been locat-ed outside the festival area.

Unlike the downtownand uptown, Puchmayr said

Sapperton and theWestEnd business areas don’thave business improve-ment associations to organ-ize these types of events andraise funds for initiatives intheir commercial areas.

“They don’t have full-time people who are man-aging this stuff,” he said.“I think that makes it real-ly difficult. Small business-es work extreme hours forone thing, most of them do.Doing that, plus putting ona festival, which is pretty in-tense, that really adds up.”

The 12th Street MusicFestival isn’t the first organ-ization to cancel an eventthis year, as the QuaysideCommunity Board can-celled this year’s QuaysideCommunity Festival andSale. Northwest Fan Fest,the G-Zero ChampionshipRacing Series and PiknicElectronik had also plannedto host events in NewWestthis summer but pulled theplug for a variety of reasonsand hope to host events inthe summer of 2017.

Heritagehomesnot justrealestateKudos to city council

for passing it and kudos tothe Queen’s Park residentswho pushed for, and got,a one-year moratoriumon demolitions of heritagehomes in Queen’s Park.

During that year the citywill come up with a bylaw,or bylaws, to potentiallyprotect the Queen’s Parkneighbourhood as a per-manent heritage conserva-tion area.

One only has to look at

Vancouver to see what acrazy real estate markethas triggered.

Beautiful heritagehomes are being bulldozedto be replaced by homesthat make the 1980s“monster homes” look likecottages.The city ofVan-couver has probably beenthe biggest loser in thequest to demolish heritagehomes in favour of newhomes with larger foot-prints and more square

footage. But Port Moodyand other cities known fortheir heritage homes havealso suffered losses.

InVancouver last year,the city issued 951 demo-

lition permits for single-family homes. Accordingto a Vancouver Sun arti-cle, 40 per cent were char-acter homes that predat-ed 1940.

When a city loses itsheritage, it doesn’t justlose a different style ofhousing or an architectur-al design, it loses a pieceof its very DNA.

As Caroline Addersonsays, of heritage homesbeing demolished, “To

me it’s like we are eras-ing all these stories.Theseare not just houses.Theyare cultural artifacts.Thehouse stands for you andyour family and all thepeople who lived in thathouse. I consider them re-positories of merit andmemory.”

NewWestminster hasabout 60 single-familyhomes that are heritage des-ignated.Those are split be-tween Queen’s Park and the

West End. So far, heritagehomes in the city are still,generally speaking, worthmore on the market thannew monster homes. Butthat could always change ina volatile market.

NewWestminster maynot be able to predict thefuture, but it can work toprotect the past. And that’sa good thing.

Transiteasierthanhousing

Prime Minister JustinTrudeau flew into townlate last week and began tosolve one pressing issue fac-ing MetroVancouver andthen found himself smack inthe middle of another onewhere a solution may proveto be more elusive.

Trudeau followed throughon a key election promiseand provided almost a half-billion dollars for transit im-provements, almost all ofthem in the metro region.But no sooner did he dothat with a lavish photo-opat a transit station than hefound himself facing ques-tions about another ma-jor issue: the out-of-controlhousing market in MetroVancouver.

The transit funding is forwhat is called “Phase 1” of amulti-billion-dollar plan forall kinds of transit and trans-portation projects in the re-gion. Phase 1 will pay formore cars on various rapidtransit routes, a third Sea-Bus, various maintenanceprojects and pre-construc-tion planning for two mega-projects: the Broadway sub-way line and the Surrey lightrail lines.

Of course, that is basedon the assumption thatMetroVancouver’s mayorswill find a way to fund theirshare.The first phase wasrelatively cheap, and so find-ing a way of paying for it –fare increases, some landsales and a minor proper-ty tax increase – wasn’t aparticularly onerous task.But the next phase is muchmore expensive.The may-ors are already making noiseabout getting a share of the

province’s carbon tax, butthe odds of that happen-ing appear remote, so theymay have to dig deep intothe wallets of municipal tax-payers.

As for the prime minis-ter, he attended a round-ta-ble discussion on the hous-ing problem the day afterhis splashy transit event.He seemed less sure aboutthings at this gathering, call-ing the housing situation a“crisis” but at the same timeexpressing concern that thewrong kind of action couldmake matters worse.

His hesitation is under-standable. Everyone seemsto be a housing expert thesedays, but I’ve seen no evi-dence that any one thing isunquestionably the root ofthe problem and what themagic bullet solution is.

The B.C. government ispressingTrudeau to changetax rules to make it easier tobuild rental properties, andfor the federal governmentto once again build socialhousing.The B.C. govern-ment itself is likely to givethe City ofVancouver thepower to tax vacant proper-ty owners and will perhapsdo some tinkering aroundforeign ownership.

But caution seems to bethe watchword for both po-litical leaders on this issue.

And our new prime min-ister is about to discover thatsigning a big cheque to payfor things like transit is amuch easier endeavour thanfinding the right kind of ac-tion to take to deal with theexplosive housing market.Keith Baldrey is chief politi-

cal reporter for Global B.C.

Is this how we wantdemocracy to work?Dear Editor I was shockedby the incrediblylowvoter turnout for the last byelection. If lessthan 25per cent is considered “extremely low,”what about 4.05per cent?Domost peopleinNewWest seriously believe city politics,especially byelections, are so “petty or trivial,”havingnoeffect onour lives?Did the closingof a hospital, noise pollution,

trafficwoes, garbage collectionor reliableelectricity all have “noeffect onour lives?” Ineducation, does thepromptbuilding (finally!)of a newhigh school havenoeffect onourcommunity?Does the appropriate (or inappro-priate) distributionof analready tight budgethave “noeffect on the lives” of our youth?Dopeople simply notwant democracy

anymore? If not thepresent system,whatwould theywant? Aristocracy or absolute rulebywealthy landowners?Oligarchyby elitecorporatistswho candoanything theywish?Military rule? Theocracy, like in Iran? (or 15thcentury Europe?)A liberal democracy is thebest knownwork-

able system,which is thebest to live under.But it comeswith aprice. Thirtymillionpeoplediedduring theSecondWorldWar in defenceof democratic systemsand constitutionalrights…and the vote.And there is also a responsibility. Under

democracy,weare responsible. Ifwedonotchooseour leaders rationally, reasonably, andaskourselveswho is thebest qualifiedprofes-sional (notmere entertainers or demagogues,please),whowill choose the leaders andof-ficers? It is our responsibility.And ifwedonot standup for our rights

today, theywill be takenaway fromus in thefuture, possibly by subtle deception fromero-sionof proper education.TerryHilmar,NewWestminster

Choir adds to thecity’s cultural lifeDear Editor In January, a friend toldmeabouta choir for adults listed in theNewWestmin-ster Active LivingGuide.She knew that I enjoyed singing and

thought Imight be interested in signingup.I looked into it anddiscovered theNew

Westminster Anvil Community Choirwas allabout “having fun, discovering your voice andconnectingwithpeople in your community.”Noexperiencewasnecessary norwas anaudi-tion required. Soundedperfect tome. I signedupandhavenot lookedback!The choir is directedbyShaneRamanwho

is a choral conductor (andprivate voice teach-er)with theSarahMcLachlanSchool ofMusic.Shane’s guidance, encouragement and con-sistently positive energybrings out thebest inall of us. Our repertoire includes songs suchasWhataWonderful Life, Seasonsof Love,Motet,Ave verumcorpusandmore. All of them,whensung in four-part harmony, soundmagical. Ourspring sessionwill culminate in aperformancein the lobbyof theAnvil Centre on June 26 at 3p.m. calledAnAfternoonof Song.Iwould like to thank theCity ofNew

Westminster for bringing sucha talented choirdirector to our city andwould encourage any-onewith an interest in singing to think aboutsigningup for the summerprogram.LynaKiviste,NewWestminster

Puchmayr. “I think with thecrazy real estate market rightnow and the speculationthat’s going on, there was fi-nally an appetite for it – ifthey wanted to preserve thathistoric neighbourhood, thiswas the only way of doingit. Otherwise it was going tobe demolition after demo-lition.”

The Queen’s Park Neigh-bourhood heritage study,which has been consider-ing ways to support heritageconservation in the neigh-bourhood for more than twoyears, supports the crea-tion of a heritage conserva-tion area.

“We have a year to comeup with a bylaw.We have aone-year moratorium now.

If we fail, we can’t imposethat for another decade.Wehave a year,” Puchmayr said.“Staff feel very confident wewill be able to do that in theproper time and commu-nicate it back to the herit-age people in Queen’s Park.They are worried that wewill fail, but we won’t fail. Itwill be done.”

Maureen Arvanitidis,president of the HeritagePreservation Society of NewWestminster, said takingsteps to introduce a conser-vation area in the Queen’sPark neighbourhood is themost progressive measurethe city has taken to pre-serve the city’s heritage.

“We look forward toworking with the city to es-tablish the guidelines for the

conservation area and hopethat other neighbourhoods,down the road, will also beable to establish conserva-tion areas,” she said. “Whatmakes NewWestminster at-tractive to people is our her-itage, so it is very importantwe look for ways to retainit, and this is an excellentstart.”

Charges are pendingagainst one man followinga substantial drug investi-gation by NewWestminsterpolice.

In March, RCMP alertedlocal police of drug activitywith a possible connectionto the Royal City.

The NewWestminsterPolice Department’s streetcrime unit was tasked with

the investigation and, after ashort while, discovered evi-dence of drug trafficking,noted a press release frompolice.

Through this investiga-tion, a “significant” amountof illegal drugs was seized,and on June 14, sever-al search warrants were ex-ecuted around the LowerMainland.

The searches turned upan undisclosed amount ofcash and additional drugs.

A male suspect was alsoarrested but released untilcharges are officially laid.

The NewWestminsterPolice Department was un-able to provide any more in-formation on the investiga-tion.

The fate of an 1891 homein the Moody Park neigh-bourhood is uncertain aftercity council heeded neigh-bours’ appeals to reject aproposed heritage revitaliza-tion agreement.

The owner of the houseat 1031 Sixth Ave. appliedfor a heritage revitalizationagreement so he could move

the house to the rear of thelot and build a new houseat the front of the property.More than a dozen neigh-bours attended a June 20public hearing to oppose theplan.

“This is not a lane houseproposal,” said neighbourJacquie Park. “This is ahouse on a lane.”

Park said the land-useproposal is “far too severe”for the 4,385-square-foot

lot, with the two houses andparking taking up most ofthe site. She urged councilto consider the impacts the“intrusive” proposal wouldhave on heritage homes be-side and behind the prop-erty.

“This 125-year-old heri-tage home in NewWestmin-ster shouldn’t be the subor-dinate house on the parcel,or any other for that mat-ter,” she said. “Hiding that

125-year-old home at therear of the property is an af-front to the heritage of NewWestminster.”

A staff report stated theowner bought the house in2014 with the intention ofrestoring the outside andrenovating the inside of theMcLaughlin House.Thehouse is listed on the city’sheritage inventory but isn’t adesignated heritage home.

The report says the own-

er explored a number of op-tions to expand the house orbuild a new laneway housebut none met his family’sneeds.

The city’s communi-ty heritage commission op-posed demolition of thehouse and encouraged theowner to find a way to re-tain it by building a lanewayhouse or creating a duplex.

Council membersthanked the homeowner for

going through the processbut unanimously opposedthe application.

The owner has the rightto apply for a demolitionpermit.

“If we turn this down wemay be sounding the deathknell for this house becausehe certainly has a right todemolish if he so choos-es,” said Coun. LorrieWil-liams. “I would like to savethe house.”

Jan GibsonCity Clerk, City of NewWestminster

Take us back to 1963when the committeewas struck to set up afriendship centre for ab-originals moving fromreserves and intoVan-couver.What were mi-grants going through atthe time?

I was one of those (mi-grants), and that’s why Iwas so interested in gettingsomething started. I migrat-ed toVancouver to take acourse. So when I got here,there were absolutely noservices available for migrat-ing aboriginal people intothe urban area. … (Like)a meeting place where you

could associate with yourown people.There was noaffordable housing and justno information centres toguide you.

It was very challengingbecause you come from avery small, remote area andall of a sudden, there’s thishuge city that you don’tknow and never visited be-fore.

There are now 25 cen-tres in B.C andmorethan 100 nationwide.Did you ever think you’dmake this kind of im-pact?

No, I never thought thatwould happen, you know,because it was just me fo-cusing on how I see whatthe gap was in urban cit-ies likeVancouver. I real-

ly didn’t know it would ex-pand to what it is today andacross Canada as well.

When I started the Na-tional Association of Friend-ship Centres, there were justa few people who had incor-porated as a service agencyor they were already provid-ing some services, maybeout of a church basement orgarage.

I don’t think any of us re-ally thought that we wouldsurvive till today becausewe struggled so much to getfunding.We’re still strug-gling to get funding.

You also founded theCircle of Eagles Society,a halfway home for thoseleaving incarceration,and served as its execu-tive director for 15 years.

What led you to establishthat organization?

When I became the ex-ecutive director of theVan-couver aboriginal friend-ship centre, I had calls fromthe institutions to come out

to visit them and to listento some of their needs. So Istarted what was called theIndian Education Club inthose days.

I started visiting themand just listening to whattheir needs were, and theythemselves identified they

needed a safe place to livewhen you’re released backinto the community.

In 1970, we opened ahouse from funding fromthe provincial government,so we were able to get thatorganization started.

Like everything else, it’s abig challenge, but fortunate-ly in those days, the needsfor zoning and (the) by-laws weren’t as strict as theyare today, so we opened thehalfway house without toomuch of a challenge.

Of the many accoladesyou’ve received, there’sthe Queen’s Golden Ju-bilee Medal, theYW-CA’sWomen of Distinc-tionAward, the CourageAward from theVancou-ver aboriginal communi-

ty policing centre societyandmanymore. Now,the Order of B.C.Howdoes it make you feel?

Getting this particularaward makes me feel like Ihave accomplished some-thing in my efforts to pro-vide a better quality of lifefor the aboriginal peoplemigrating into urban cities.

As I’ve worked in thecommunities, it’s neverbeen about recognition formyself, or feeling like I de-serve that, just really focus-ing on what the needs are ofthe people.

For me, it was just iden-tifying what are the gapsin services for our peoplebecause one organizationcould not do everything foreverybody.

People

You sit as the ElderAdvisor to the B.C.As-sociation of Aborigi-nal Friendship Centres’(BCAAFC) executivecommittee and are a sen-ator for the National As-sociation of FriendshipCentres.Most recent-ly, you co-founded the

BCAAFC Elders Coun-cil, which acts as an advi-sory body to the provin-cial board of directors.At 80 years old, peopleusually take a step back,but you’re still activelyengaged.Why is that?

I think that my continuinginterest in what I’ve beendoing all of my life is keep-

ing me young and keepingme active and keeping meaware of what is going on inour community. For myself,I have developed such an in-terest in helping people overthe years that it’s very dif-ficult to just say I’m retirednow. It’s in my blood to beavailable, to assist wherev-er I can.

The Living Archive ex-hibition launches withan opening reception onThursday, June 23 from 6to 8 p.m.

The exhibition is the cul-mination of a programthat brought together nineyouth artists, ranging in agefrom 17 to 24, to delve intothe museum’s collectionsand create original artworkbased on their findings.

They were mentored bylead artist Cindy Mochizu-ki, who says visitors to theshow will see “a range ofdifferent responses to themuseum that allow us to ex-perience things forgottenand invisible, whimsical andstill very much alive.”

One of the artists involvedis NewWestminster residentCherry Lu, who says herobjective was to highlight“the undiscovered spaces”within the museum and ar-chives.

She created text-based artthat highlights the “scratch-es and dents” in the muse-um and explores “the ordi-nary and overlooked as partof history through poeticgestures and a bit of playful-ness.”

Another of the artists wasHarrisonTom, who broughthis background in biolo-gy to the table. For him, theprocess was about exploringthe idea of museums them-selves: “as concepts andwhat that meant.”

For Roni Kim, mean-while, taking part in the Liv-ing Archive was a chance tocreate conversations aboutother stories in our history– stories that might not betold in the museum. Kim,who’s in the fine arts pro-gram at the University ofVictoria, used the LivingArchive experience to cre-ate an animation and au-dio work about the story ofAmelia Douglas, the wife ofJames Douglas – exploringthe fact that both the Doug-lases hid their mixed-raceidentities in order to main-

tain their status during colo-nial times.

The opening reception istonight (Thursday) from 6to 8 p.m. Admission is free,and there will be light re-freshments and a cash bar.

Artists will also be onhandThursday, June 30from 5:30 to 7 p.m. for apanel discussion about theproject.

Some of the artists willalso be offering public work-shops in July and August.

You can follow the artists’journeys at www.livingarchives2016.tumblr.com.

To check out the exhibi-tion, drop in to the muse-um at the Anvil Centre, 777Columbia St. It’s open tothe public every day from10 a.m. to 5 p.m., with ex-tended hours onThursdaysto 8 p.m. Admission is bydonation.The exhibition isopen until Sunday, Aug. 21.

Take a voyage into spacein the next exhibition at theNew Media Gallery.

The gallery is getting setto open its space_ exhibitiononThursday, June 23.

The exhibition presentsfour works by five artists, in-cludingTurner Prize win-ner Elizabeth Price andTurner Prize nominees Janeand LouiseWilson, as wellas American artists DavidBowen and Kristina Estell.

“This is an exhibitionconnected with space, thatgreat void, and our relation-ship with bodies in space.The works in this exhibi-tion track moving bodies inspace, monitoring passingtime, great distances and arepetition of recorded his-tories,” a press release says.“There is a focus on celes-tial bodies and manmadeobjects sent out into space.Together the works remindus of places and objects thatare only a memory now, andhow once there was a racefor space.”

Estell’s work,Voyag-er-One, traces the real-time path of theVoyager-One space probe that waslaunched in 1977 and en-tered extra-terrestrial space

in 1990.The distance of theprobe from earth is translat-ed into colour shifts experi-enced through a tiny light ina completely dark room.

Bowen’s SPACEJUNKconsists of five robots whotrace the path of the oldestpiece of space junk circlingoverhead.

“The robots move togeth-er in real time when theydetect a signal, as if in a me-chanical ballet,” the releasesays.Star City is a four-chan-

nel video installation byJane and LouiseWilson thatexplores theYuri GagarinCosmonautTraining Cen-tre, where cosmonauts havelived and trained since the1960s. Also in the exhibitionis Price’s Sunlight, a two-channel video installationthat incorporates thousandsof glass plate negatives ofthe sun and explores thepaths and attitudes of thecelestial and human body.

An opening reception isset for tonight (Thursday,June 23) from 7 to 9 p.m.All are welcome. For moreinformation, see www.newmediagallery.ca, or drop into the Anvil Centre at 777Columbia St.

CITY OF NEW WESTMINSTER 2015 COMMUNITY REPORT

2015 was a remarkable year for the City of NewWestminster. The downtown was

renewed with the demolition of a section of the Front Street Parkade, which

uncovered a large portion of Front Street heritage buildings and storefronts.

This demolition is in preparation for the development of the Front Street

Mews. The Mews is envisioned to be an attractive, safe and pedestrian-friendly

street which will also serve as a seamless connection to our waterfront.

In order to address topics of critical interest raised by the community, a number

of task forces comprised of communitymembers with expertise in specific areas

were established including: Transportation; Canada Games Pool; Economic Health

Care Cluster; and Public Engagement.

In partnership with residents, we worked diligently to revise our Official

Community Plan, providing a renewed vision for NewWestminster to the year

2041. The Official Community Plan will ensure our community grows in a

smart and sustainable way that protects what makes NewWestminster so special.

I’d like to say a huge thank you to City Council, staff, residents’ and business

associations, community volunteers and local citizens for all your hard work.

I look forward to working with you in 2016 on more exciting initiatives that

improve engagement and quality of life for everyone in New Westminster.

Jonathan X. Coté,MAYOR

Mayor’sMessageON BEHALF OF NEW WESTMINSTER CITY COUNCIL, I AM PROUD TO SHARE THE CITY OF NEW WESTMINSTER’SKEY INITIATIVES AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THE PAST YEAR.

PORTLAND

ShaneWard took a ridethrough Portland in a minifloat as part of her duties asHyack Princess 2016.

During Portland’s GrandFloral Parade on June 11,Ward rode in NewWest-minster’s mini float entry,joining three other Ameri-can community ambassa-dors riding in mini floats inthe parade.The event is partof the Portland Rose Fes-tival.

"Spectators were very gra-cious and welcoming," shesaid after her ride in the pa-rade route.AlanWardle, president

of the Hyack Festival As-sociation, said several vol-unteers built and decorat-ed the mini float.The city’s

big float didn’t qualify forthe parade because of thecost of retrofitting it to meetthe requirements of ensur-ing that all visible materialsadorning the float being or-ganic or floral.

“The cost to retrofit thefloat would have exceed-ed $25,000, so we slippedinto the parade with a golf

cart chassis and a crew thatwent to Portland a weekearly to build and decoratea mini float.There were 10communities that enteredin this category. Four werein a theme of floral cov-ered dresses that our am-bassadors perched into asmall opening at the top ofthe dress to appear that she

was ‘floating’ down the pa-rade route,”Wardle said“This is the first time in de-cades NewWestminster Hy-ack Festival has been in thePortland Grand Floral pa-rade with FoxTV coverage.”Send items for AroundTown

Construction of NewWestminster’s new animalshelter and tow yard is ex-pected to get underway in2017.

A city task force revieweda number of city-ownedsites and determined 435Wood St. to be the best lo-cation for a new animalshelter and tow yard.Theplan calls for a buildingabout 7,100 square feet andincludes space for cats, dogsand other small animals, as

well as space for volunteersand administrative staff ofthe animal services andparking/towing services.

“To date staff have com-missioned a preliminarygeotechnical investiga-tion under the Queensbor-ough Bridge to get a senseof costing and the feasibil-ity of that site,” saidTerryAtherton, the city’s managerof civic buildings and prop-erties. “Also, the architect,staff and members of thetask force worked quite hardin coming up with a de-tailed schematic floor plan,

which would incorporate allour program requirements.”

Atherton said the new siteis expected to accommodatethe city’s needs for about 25years. It would also providea space that offers betterseparation of cats and dogsto prevent any kind of crosscontamination.

“We anticipate the de-tailed design on the facilityto begin probably in Augustand maybe carry on untilearly 2017,” Atherton said.

Construction of the facil-ity is expected to start in thespring of 2017, he added.

CitymovesforwardonplansforanimalshelterConstruction of new facility set to start next spring

It could be lights, cam-eras, action in Queensbor-ough in the coming years.

On June 20, councilagreed to issue a three-yeartemporary use permit for401 and 451 Salter St. toallow motion picture pro-

duction studios on the site.Ironwood Studios plans tosublet its studios and officespace to production compa-nies involved in the produc-tion of movies,TV showsand commercials.

Although 11 residential

properties are located within100 metres of the site, citystaff say there will be mini-mal impacts, as the proper-ties are separated by a rowof hedges, a rail line and awide road right-of-way.

We certainly hope thatyou were able to take partin some of the activities onthe NewWestminster wa-terfront last weekend dur-ing the city’s Pier 2 Landingevent.There was the newelevator to see, lots of fun,food, games, entertainment,both walking and bike tours,and of course, you couldwalk right down the middleof Front Street!

If, rather than being themiddle of June of 2016, itwas 151 years ago in themiddle of June 1865, whatdo you think might havebeen of interest to us? Firstof all, let’s remember thatthe waterfront itself wasvery different.There werefew docks, the river wasmuch closer to any struc-tures on the riverbank, andthe city itself was still work-ing out what to do withFront Street. All that aside,what was on the town’smind down by the river?

Everyone talks about theweather and in 1865 theywere complaining about lotsof rain.They must have hadsome warm weather thoughbecause we read “the firstripe strawberries of the sea-son that we have seen arefrom the garden of Dr. Mc-Naughton Jones.” It was

noted that, although thefruit crop was late, “it prom-ises to be very abundant.”

While the paddlewheelsteamboat traffic was domi-nant on the river, there wasgreat attention in June 1865in the deep sea sailing ves-sels arriving from much far-ther away.The bark Me-tropolis was in the area withsheep and general cargo af-ter an 18-day sail from SanFrancisco.The ship MaryGlover had arrived aftera 55-day trip from HongKong with cargo and 280Chinese passengers.Theschooner Milton Badger,185 days out of NewYork,brought supplies for theCollins OverlandTelegraph.The latter would have beenof great local interest as thetelegraph was under con-struction and the vessel wasoff-loading at the PioneerWharf.

Speaking of the telegraph,anyone down at the water-

front in June 1865 wouldalso have been watching thework at the river’s edge aspoles were erected and ca-ble submerged to connectthe NewWestminster side tothe Surrey side.

A glance through the lo-cal paper of this time showsa couple of other items thatmight have elicited a fewcomments. A number oflots would be up for auc-tion soon as they had beenreclaimed in default of tax-es. Another property for salewas a complete salmon fish-ery with all necessary equip-ment located opposite NewWestminster on the Fraser.

And while all of theseitems would have spurredconversation on the water-front in mid-June 1865, themost exciting topic mighthave been that “three slightshocks of an earthquakewere felt” locally.

A golf tournament orga-nized by front-line staff atRoyal Columbian Hospitalhas reached new fundraisingheights during its fourth an-nual event.

More than 150 golfersand sponsors took to thelinks for the Making theCut Charity Golf Classic onJune 11, raising more than$40,000 to help Royal Co-lumbian Hospital Founda-tion buy lifesaving surgicalequipment.

Dr. DarcyMurphy took ownershipof Queen’s Park Dental in NewWestminster seven years ago, and

since that time, the practice has undergoneextensive renovations.“We’ve renovated twice and expanded our

facilities by taking over another 700 squarefeet at the rear of the building,” says Dr.Murphy. “It’s allowed us to accommodatemore chairs for more patients.”And thanks to countless referrals from

happy patients, those extra chairs have beennecessary.“Going to the dentist isn’t everyone’s idea

of fun,” Dr. Murphy laughs, “but we trytomake our patients feel comfortable bytreating them like amember of the Queen’sPark Dental family. Some people comein joking and relaxed; some people arenervous. Either way, we try tomake sureeveryone leaves with a smile.”Queen’s Park Dental offers a full list of

dental services, includingmild sedation tomake the experience easier for those whofind going to the dentist to be a little nerve-wracking.“Typically, anxious patients will ask for

an oral sedation for the first couple ofappointments,” Dr. Murphy says. “Once webuild up a rapport and trust level, however,they usually find that themedication is notneeded.”

Dr. Murphy, his associate Dr. Karen Liang,and rest of the team at Queen’s Park Dentalare passionate advocates of the benefits ofpreventative care.“Keeping up with preventative care is

really important for good oral health,”Dr. Murphy says. “It’s a lot easier to catcha cavity early and fix it with a filling, butneglecting dental care for a few years meansmore complex work, such as a root canal ora crown. Prevention is the key.”Be sure to check out Queen’s Park Dental’s

excellent blog at queensparkdental.ca/blog/for informative articles on oral health andpreventative care.For more information onQueen’s

Park Dental visit queensparkdental.ca, call 604.552.5242, email [email protected], or drop by theirlocation at 215-624 Sixth Street, NewWestminster. Queen’s Park Dental can alsobe found on Facebook and Twitter.

On June 21, Nation-al Aboriginal Day, we cel-ebrate aboriginal culturein British Columbia andacross Canada.

The NewWestminsterPublic Library has resourc-es to help you acknowledgeand learn about the con-tributions, history and cul-ture of First Nations, Métisand Inuit people.

When looking for bookswith aboriginal content,look for items that are cul-turally respectful, appro-priate and historically ac-curate.You can do this bylooking at the author's andillustrator's relationship tothe story, ensuring there isno tokenism or stereotypes,and that there is a repre-sentation of First Nationspeople living in present-day culture and not as partof an extinct culture.

For an entertaining novelthat showcases present-day

aboriginal issues, try theAbsolutelyTrue Diary of aPart-Time Indian by Sher-man Alexie. Alexie writes afunny and sad semi-auto-biographical story of a teenliving on a reserve inWash-ington State. For histori-cal fiction, try The Orenda,by Joseph Boyden, whichlooks at an Iroquoian vil-lage during the time of Je-suit missionaries in earlyCanada.

Power fromthepoint:BurnabyWinterClubalumnusDanteFabbro, shownaboveplayingat the IIHFWorldunder-18 championships inApril, enters thisweek’sNHLEntryDraft embracing theexperience, after havingestablishedhimself asoneof the top-eight eligibledefencemen. PHOTOMINASPANAGIOTAKIS/HHOF/IIHF IMAGES

FabbroreadyforNHLdraftspotlightHockey draft experts forecast BurnabyWinter Club product to go in the first [email protected]

The suspense likely ends ear-ly Friday evening, when the but-terflies and nerves will be tradedfor an anticipated call, hugs andtears of joy from family mem-bers, a walk to the stage where ajersey and handshakes await, fol-lowed by photos and interviewsgalore.

For NewWestminster-bornDante Fabbro, this week’s 2016NHL Entry Draft in Buffa-lo is where a young kid’s dreamis realized. But thanks to les-sons learned and past experienc-es gained, the just-turned-18 yearold will enter the next phase ofhis career with plenty of perspec-tive to balance it all out.

“It’s been a little bit of a whirl-wind, actually, having seen mybuddies go through the sameprocess,” Fabbro told the NOWlast week. “I’m taking the time tosoak everything in. It’s been a funcouple of weeks but as the draftnears its something I’m thinkingabout more and more.”

The NHL combine earlier thismonth pulled together all the toptalent available in this year’s draftand gave them a glimpse intowhat the future may hold.

Grilled by hockey people fromevery NHL team, the teens were

put through a mill of gruelingphysical tests devised to revealweaknesses as much as strengths.

When you have your demean-or and skills dissected by scouts,general managers and online fansalike it’s hard not to wilt a littleunder the microscope. But justas he regularly stared down andstopped an oncoming opponenton the ice, Fabbro wheeled itaround and wasn’t taken by anycurve balls.

“The interview portion of thecombine was definitely some-thing where you just had to beyourself (or) they would see rightthrough it if you were not. Justkeep a cool head and be your-self,” he said.

“The training portion you hadguys who’s season just ended andother guys had a little bit longer– it’s pretty much standard in thesummer where you want to set (amark) and through the summeryou want to beat those things.”

A BurnabyWinter Club prod-uct, the 6-foot-tall blueliner hasseen his stock rise over the past12 months, including as one ofCanada’s top defencemen at theWorld Junior under-18 champi-onships in April.

A disappointing fourth-placefinish also saw players separatethemselves and show their skillsagainst elite competition. By tal-

lying eight assists in seven games,on the same ice surface as fellowfirst-round prospects like Fin-land’s Jesse Puljujarvi, Sweden’sAlexander Nylander, the U.S.A’sClayton Keller, and Pentictonand Canadian teammateTysonJost, Fabbro raised the bar.

His BCHL stats for 2015-16 inPenticton, 14 goals and 53 assistsin 45 games, earned him the topdefenceman award.

A right-shot defender, he wasrecently ranked 18th amongNorth American skaters by theNHL’s Central Scouting Bureaulast month. Others forecast himgoing in the mid-teens.

Where ever he goes in thedraft, Fabbro knows where he’llbe in September. He is slated tojoin the student body and hockeyplayers at Boston University as afreshman.

Asked whether his older sis-ters Gina and Sophia needlehim about joining the ranks ofthe higher learned – both attendAustin Peay College inTennes-see on soccer scholarships –Fab-bro laughed.

“They’re pretty supportive andhave been like that my entire life.We have our fights and stuff likethat but it’s a friendship-love re-lationship and obviously I can’tsay enough good things about mysisters and my family and howI grew up. I have had a prettyblessed life so far and hopefullythings will continue on that wayfrom here.”

The combine didn’t over-whelm the soft-spoken teen.Twenty-eight of the league’s 30teams sat down and interviewedhim.The glare, he realizes, willonly get brighter.

“It’s pretty crazy, honestly.You’re kind of lost for words al-most.You grow up watching theNHL, all the superstars and it’sso many kids dream – it mightsound cliché but its every kidsdream to go and play hockey ifyou’re lucky to do so,” said Fab-bro.

“It’s going to be a fun expe-rience for me and definitely myfamily who’ll be there. I want toshare it with them and give backto them as much as possible.”

Woodwardends localdroughtHealthy again,NewWest thrower pinsJerome meet [email protected]

The trajectory was true, and mostimportantly, the release was strong.

NewWestminster’s KristaWood-ward had come to expect a rough goat the Burnaby-hosted Harry JeromeTrack Classic, but better health and agood feeling propelled her to the se-nior women’s javelin title at the inter-national event.

Woodward’s top throw peaked at57.01 metres, edging out Canadiannational champion and record holderLiz Geadle by a centimetre.

The narrow edge was some much-needed momentum heading into thefinal month of Olympic qualificationmeets, and a nice boost in confidence.

“I was pleasantly surprised – (theJerome) has always been a meet Iseemed to do poorly at,” saidWood-ward, 31. “It feels like there’s more tocome, my throws were just a couple ofdegrees off.”

A six-time Canadian champion,Woodward is benefitting from find-ing a new coach and recovering froma shoulder nerve impingement whichhad troubled her the past two seasons.

“Every time I’d throw it felt like I’dbeen electrocuted.”

Nagging injuries that limited herability to run up to the line, which sup-plies the power in her throw, also ef-fected her mental preparation. Nowthree years after setting her person-al best of 60.15m inTokyo,Woodwardenvisions a return to form.

Geadle, who holds the Canadian re-cord of 64.83m, drew a lot of the me-dia attention after one of her throwsripped a cameraman’s shirt.Woodwardsaid her own performance may havebenefited from a more relaxed, few ex-pectations approach.

“(Geadle) hasn’t had many throwsunder 59m lately so I went in thinkingI might not challenge (her), but I alsohave had encouraging throws since thestart (of the year).

“It started off at 54, 55 and is slowlyclimbing,” saidWoodward, who needsto reach the Olympic standard of 62mto make the Rio team. “I’m just hap-py that I’m here after two back-to-backrough years.”

The road to qualify for Rio is a shortone at this stage in the game. She iscompeting in a Portland, Ore. meet,after getting an invitation from friendand U.S. record holder Kara Patter-son.The Canadian championships fol-low, July 7 to 10 in Edmonton.

For someone who missed the 2012Olympics by 50 centimetres,Wood-ward says the dream is still strong.

“I don’t think I ever thought of giv-ing up,” she said. “I always thought I’dhave another shot, (that) there’s alwaysanother meet.”

A balanced attack and a strongfinish were keys in the NewWest-minster Salmonbellies’ 11-6 victo-ry over Langley last week.

The senior A Bellies broke outto a 3-0 lead on markers fromMitch Jones, Dane Sorensen andAnthony Malcom, making his de-but with the club.

But Langley, mired in last placein theWestern Lacrosse Associa-tion, didn’t fold and pressed backto pull within a goal.They woulddo that repeatedly, trailing 6-5 five

minutes into the third before NewWest pulled away.

Logan Schuss tallied a goal andset up four others. Both Jones andMalcom finished the night withtwo goals, while Mike Donaldson,Justin Goodwin, Jordan McBride,Patrick Miles and Connor Robin-son counted singles.

NewWest, whose next homedate is June 30, visitsVictoria onFriday, where the Shamrocks re-tire one-time Bellie Fred ‘Whitey’Severson’s No. 8 jersey.
