Carol Foster has concerns about a permanent structure that Port Sidney Marina has proposed for the shore side of the marina.

Port of contention Devon MacKenzie News staff

A request from the Port Sidney Marina to alter the originally approved configuration of one of its floats is raising some eyebrows from land-bound neighbours.

In early July, the marina requested approval from Sidney council to move the float that currently houses the white tent at the end of the A dock. According to their letter, having the float where it is renders the shore side of the “The waterfront dock unusable because boat traffic can only access that side walk is one of Sidney’s at high tide.

Carol Foster, who owns a greatest assets and home on Third Street facing this building will the marina, opposes the proposed structure for multiple be a blemish on an reasons. otherwise lovely area.”

“I think the way that it’s been – Carol Foster, proposed is quite unattractive, resident of Third Street not only for the residents who live on Second and Third but also for the hundreds of people who use the waterfront walk,” Foster said. “The waterfront walk is one of Sidney’s greatest assets and this building will be a blemish on an otherwise lovely area.”

Port Sidney requested to move the float around closer to the shore, next to the main building, and construct a more permanent enclosure on it to allow for storage use and a small seating area. The proposed enclosure would face the waterfront homes along Second and Third streets.

The marina applied to the town in 2005 and 2008 to make similar changes to the configuration although they ran into problems with height conformation. The current plans list the building as being three meters in height, which Town of Sidney staff deemed in full conformance to the town’s official community plan in a report they sent to council on July 3.

He’s not alone Among the winners of the Lieutenant Governor’s Diamond Jubilee Medal is 86-year-old Tsawout elder George Underwood.

He enlisted in the Canadian military in 1941, spending five years with the Princess Patricia Light Infantry as a runner, carrying messages and ammunition to soldiers fighting at the front of the group.

Ever since a trip to Africa in 1998, Billy Willbond has devoted his retirement to easing the suffering of children in third world countries.

Willbond, a retired Central Saanich police officer who served in the armed forces for 20 years, was in Africa to lay wreathes for fallen Canadian soldiers.

But what he witnessed changed his life, and started a movement to change the life of others.

“I saw the AIDS orphans suffering, [and] four to five kids to a crib,” he says, adding that they were covered in ulcers and moaning because of the pain.

“I was told that half an Aspirin would give a suffering child a good night’s sleep.”

Fifteen years later, 70-year-old Willbond is still gathering equipment and supplies for people in need in third world countries.

Willbond and his wife Lynne founded the International Community for the Relief of Starvation and Suffering, or

With that challenge comes the task of trying to ensure that every donor dollar goes to those in need. “[It’s a challenge] trying to keep on even keel so that the donors know that every dollar they give does go to the poor.”

The volunteer-based group, largely made up of retired soldiers, is stationed out of Willbond’s Saanichton home.

ICROSS often partners with other NGOs to provide aid to people around the world. Organizations often let him know what’s needed where, and he gets it for them, he says.

Among ICROSS’s achievements, Willbond was recently honoured with a Diamond Jubilee Medal. The medal acknowledges Canadians making significant contributions and achievements. Willbond was presented his medal by Lt. Gov. Steven Point on July 18 at Government House in a ceremony honouring several Canadian veterans.

While Willbond doesn’t seek recognition, he hopes it will open doors for the charity.

“I don’t expect any rewards or anything,” he says. “But when you do get something, it does open doors for the children of a war, for instance.”

OUR VIEW

Licence probe a positive move Depending what side of the fence you sit on, automatic licence plate readers are either another step closer to a Big Brother surveillance society, or a needed piece of technology police can use to nab car thieves and bad drivers.

Either way, it is a good decision by B.C. Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham to try to shed light on how licence plate readers work, what data is collected and how it is used.

Victoria and Saanich police departments and the regional Integrated Road Safety Unit each use a hightech, high-speed camera that can read thousands of plates per hour and match them against those from stolen and uninsured vehicles, and help identify people without valid licences or those who are prohibited from driving – collectively known by police as “hits.”

The Victoria and Saanich police insist they don’t amass and store gigabytes of licence plate image data. That much is true – it’s all passed on to the RCMP, which administers and oversees the licence reader program. All the data is stored on RCMP servers, hits and non-hits alike. RCMP bosses indicate the program could be expanded to help police conduct serious crimes investigations.

Victoria-based critics say the plate-scanning program has veered far outside its original mandate to efficiently find bad drivers and is headed into mass population surveillance, or surveilling known activists.

This suggestion seems like conspiracy theory, but it is a fair question to ask how much surveillance people should be subjected to, what data is being collected and kept and how it’s being stored.

On days the readers are in use, Saanich and Victoria police officers retrieve an encrypted memory stick from the RCMP with flagged drivers’ plate numbers, which is plugged into the system.

At the end of the shift, the collected data and encrypted database is returned to the RCMP. Hopefully the B.C. privacy commissioner can offer suggestions to balance the tension between privacy rights and law enforcement. But that investigation likely won’t be able to probe the most troubling aspect of the automatic licence plate reading program – the collection and storage by the RCMP of the locations and movements of innocent people going about their daily lives.

The federal privacy watchdog needs to investigate what the RCMP is doing with this data. Police should have their tools, but civil rights shouldn’t be thrown under the bus.

LETTERS Reader poem: Stop rushing to relax There you were in front of me in your little Smart car. I was coming home from work feeling somewhat drained and achy, but looking forward to taking a nice stroll on the beach.

I was rushing to relax.

You were slowing down because the guy in front was turning. I suddenly felt an aggressive impulse that I could just boot it and get around you. But the guy in front turned rather quickly and you didn’t need to slow down as I had anticipated.

I was rushing to relax.

So I pushed the pedal to the metal much harder than I expected – like some 16-year-old in a street race – and

I cut you off. Luckily you were being careful and I was able to pull in without collision. In my rearview mirror I could tell you were really upset. But… I was rushing to relax.

Earlier in the day I’d been listening to an audio podcast by Jack Kornfield.

He was talking about how mindfulness and compassionate awareness could save your life and even the lives of others. He was referring to people like Aung Sang Su Chi, the Burmese activist facing off against the brutal Burmese dictatorship and Nelson Mandela’s role in bringing down apartheid. Well, unconsciousness and inattention could just as easily cost me my life and

Readers respond: The more public input, the better the outcome for everyone Your editorial (CS: learn from Sidney debacle, Our View, July 27) is spot on.

Public engagement early in the rezoning process is necessary if the process is to work in the best interest of the whole community. The voice of the general public is an important balance to the influence of special interests.

It is not always straightforward for municipal staff to take the ideas and input from a wide variety of groups, ensure these conform to legislated requirements and draft a flawless document to put before their council. Not everyone will agree with the new zoning, sometimes there are good reasons to revise the changes; the sooner this is known the better.

With more public input provided we can expect those on council to evaluate rather than advocate, supporting the openminded approach to decision making that we need for our community.

Attacks on Mulcair policies in ads carry economic clout Re: Mulcair attack ads make mockery of serious issues (Letters, July 20) Jim Geiwitz complains the attack ads on Mr. Mulcair trivialize serious problems related to “the Dutch disease,” free-trade agreements, and the carbon tax. However the subjects are not treated correctly in his letter.

The “Dutch disease” refers to countries whose manufactured goods cannot be exported because the value of the currency has been inflated by the export of raw natural resources. This is not the case in Canada. The hollowing out of manufacturing in Eastern Canada is due to tariffs imposed by other nations to protect their industry. The way to cure this is to negotiate free-trade agreements so that our manufacturers can go out and compete freely for their shares of world markets.

Nowhere is this better illustrated than by lumber industry’s recently concluded freetrade agreement with the U.S. It will mean the revitalization of B.C.’s lumber industry, and everyone in the B.C.’s Interior is celebrating it. If Mr. Mulcair actually wants to shut down free-trade agreements, it will

I pulled in to the beach access at Robert’s Bay and parked my car. You quickly pulled in behind me. As you got out I recognized you as the owner of the local bookshop where I often go to browse and sometimes buy a novel, a newspaper or a magazine. I felt shame and embarrassment and quickly uttered my apology. You were graceful and accepted it with curt thanks and got back in your car without further incident. I resolved that I had to: Stop rushing to relax.

Carbon taxes are a burden on industry that inhibits its ability to compete with the rest of the world. Practically no one today believes in global warming and there is certainly no evidence to suggest carbon dioxide has any effect on global temperatures. Therefore to place this burden on our industry for no practical purpose is not a good thing to do.

A piece of the Sidney zoning solution is still missing Once again the administration and council in Sidney are rushing through a bylaw with little evidence that anyone has taken time to analyze the potential impact of the changes that are being proposed.

At the extraordinary meeting held July 23 council rushed through two readings of a bylaw that was intended fix the problem of legal non-conforming residences in the new multifamily zones (RM5, RM6 and RM7). Under the new bylaw single family dwellings will once again be permitted on lots where they currently exist.

However, in the list of properties that are being rezoned, they have included a significant number of duplexes.

Surely someone in administration or on council should have been able to realize that a two family dwelling on a lot that was zoned for a single family or for three or more families is non-conforming.

So will council have to rush through yet another zoning bylaw in response to the threat of a law suit from a duplex owner or will they take the time to think about what they are doing now?

Tell your mayor your thoughts on marijuana campaign In February, four former attorneys general for B.C. formed the group Stop the Violence B.C. Since then, eight B.C. mayors have indicated their municipalities support the campaign.

This is an excerpt from a recent letter written by these mayors to the leaders of political parties in B.C. “It is time to tax and strictly regulate marijuana under a public health

framework; regulating marijuana would allow the government to rationally address the health concerns of marijuana, raise government tax revenue and eliminate the huge profits from the marijuana industry that flow directly to organized crime.”

I recently contacted Sidney Mayor Larry Cross for his stand on the issue. He stated that he was definitely in opposition to the campaign. If you feel as I do as a mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, with concerns for the health and safety of my family and fellow citizens, I urge you to contact your municipal hall with your opinions on this issue.

Animal cruelty case leaves reader sad for cat Re: Heavy flea infestation kills cat, owner charged (News. July 27) I write this with much heartbreak and sadness for the poor cat that died.

I have had four cats over the years, and unfortunately, due to a combination of illness and age, three of them have passed on.

I cried like a baby when I had to say my final goodbyes to each of them. I still have my beloved little diva, Olivia, and I constantly shower her with love and attention.

My cats have never been without food or water and all the comforts of home, and have been given huge amounts of love.

If they even show a sign of discomfort or illness that could be serious, I have immediately taken them to my vet.

Animals are like children. They require care and love constantly. If a person cannot provide that, they should not adopt them into their home.

Confederation.”

B.C. Premier Christy Clark says we need more than 8.2 per cent of the tax revenue generated by the project, as B.C. would have to shoulder 100 per cent of the costs if a marine oil spill occurs, and 58 per cent of any land-based environmental damage costs.

Here is a suggestion to perhaps ease the bickering. Why not have an agreement whereby all the financial benefactors involved in this project contribute their proportionate amount, based on revenue sharing, to any damages that result from oil spills related to the pipeline or the oil it would carry?

For example, Ottawa would chip in 44 per cent and Alberta 40 per cent of any associated cleanup costs.

Also, Enbridge Inc. has indicated it will pump an additional $500 million into their construction costs, in hopes that the pipes transporting the oil will become leakproof.

Not good enough. Compared to the potential cleanup costs of an oil spill, $500 million is peanuts.

Enbridge should post, for discussion purposes, a $10 billion bond, which would apply to cover costs attributable to any oil leaks and spillage resulting from their contribution to this project.

Bylaw enforcement is out with the summertime heat Natalie North News staff

As temperatures climb to 27 C this weekend and people across the Capital region head to their favourite swimming holes to beat the heat, they won’t be alone.

Capital Regional District parks staff, bylaw enforcement officers, municipal police and RCMP officers will continue their patrols of summertime hotspots in an effort to curb liquor and other bylaw infractions.

This season has been much quieter for enforcement, per-

haps due to the cooler weather, said Janette Loveys, manager of park operations.

“Most of our work has been around making contact with park visitors in a very proactive way and then seeking volunteer compliance,” Loveys said. “Alcohol is either dumped, or people choose to leave.”

If people choose not to comply, they could receive a $200 fine for consuming liquor in a park. The fine doubled in 2010 to deter public drinking.

“We want to make sure that it’s a positive park experience for everyone. There might be

behaviour or safety issues as well. Often it is alcohol though, because if it’s a nice summer day, people want to go out and have a drink.”

Thetis Lake and Sooke Potholes are two of the areas constantly being patrolled through a joint effort with RCMP, though Elk/Beaver Lake, as with any other CRD park, is being monitored.

“It’s not a secret. We want park visitors to see the patrols. Even having the presence in a proactive way addresses the issues before they become significant.” nnorth@saanichnews.com

Fifty Shades fad driving desire to become more sexual, local sex therapist says Natalie North News staff

Natalie North/News staff

Metchosin and Vancouverbased contemporary romance writer Susan Lyons – who also writes under the pen name Susan Fox or Savannah Fox – has noticed a marked boost in her foreign sales since the rise of the Fifty Shades of Grey phenomenon.

“The industry is responding,” Lyons said. “Publishers are repackaging books to look more like Fifty Shades of Grey – the kinds of covers that women will take out in public.”

On July 11, Aragon noted, Penguin Group rereleased Anne Rice’s Sleeping Beauty trilogy repackaged with a Fifty Shadesesque cover and a line that reads “If you liked Fifty Shades of Grey, you’ll love the Sleeping Beauty trilogy.”

Weatherbe admits the writing may not be of high literary merit, but it’s having an effect on the women around her.

“The one good thing about this is that women are talking about sex and sexuality,” Aragon said.

“Sorry to be so cliché: that’s a win. Now if we were talking more about female orgasm, positive sexuality, positive body image – I’d be happier with that.”

Weatherbe’s free workshops run Monday through Wednesday evenings downtown, in Saanich and Oak Bay. For details and to register call 250-388-6434. nnorth@saanichnews.com

Early plans for a structure at Port Sidney Marina have caused a stir among residents who look out over the port. Port Sidney plans to make some changes to renderings that were distributed, including this one.

Marina changes proposed twice in previous years Continued from page A1

Part of the town’s recommendation was that the marina undertake a public consultation process with the neighbouring properties on Second and Third streets which overlook the marina.

Foster says that because the

placement of the building affecting the view on the public walkway, council should consider getting the marina to consult with a wider audience.

“All the residents in Sidney should be consulted on this project, really. Everyone who uses the walkway will be impacted, not just the residents on Sec-

ond and Third [streets],” Foster said.

Port Sidney office manager Kristine Unwin said the plans and drawings sent out to residents were not the appropriate versions, and new plans will be mailed out within the coming weeks. reporter@peninuslanewsreview.com

Market back on the market Sidney looks for a new group to run Beacon Ave.’s Thursday night mainstay Devon MacKenzie News staff

The Town of Sidney is once again looking for a new organizer for future Sidney markets.

The town released a request for proposals Aug. 1 for the market season starting summer 2013.

“We’re in a position where we want to get a clear start on this and we strongly believe the RFP is going to do that for us. We want the market to move forward as a whole community,” said Sidney Mayor Larry Cross.

The new RFP, which is the second one since the town terminated the agreement with the Sidney Business Association in April and again in early July, outlines clearly that the town wishes to hire someone to run the market who will focus on local artisan products as well as the market’s ability to co-exist with merchants in the town.

“What we’ve been trying to do all along is move the market into more of a community effort where the interested parties and stakeholders have a say in what goes on. By issuing the RFP and going this particular route, not only does it work

towards unifying and working with the business community, particularly the merchants on Beacon Avenue, but it will also, we’re convinced, ensure sustainability of the market in the future,” said Cross.

Steve Duck, a member of the Sidney Business Development Group who earlier this year presented to council about the market’s future, says the town’s move towards finding a new market operator is the key to keeping Sidney a shopping destination.

“Whether it’s Langford, Hillside mall or Uptown, Sidney needs to look towards being well defined in which way we’re moving our

The town says its RFP won’t disrupt the popular Sidney market. marketing to remain competitive. The Town of Sidney should be commended for looking for a proponent that wants to involve merchants,” he said. “The current market has lost the view of what’s best for Sidney as a whole and we need to get that back.”

According to the RFP,

the market will continue to take place Thursday evenings on Beacon Avenue from June to September.

The closing date for RFP submissions is Sept. 14 and Cross said the town aims to have a final decision made sometime in December. reporter@peninsulanews review.com

Is my work travel insurance plan adequate for this trip?

Many plans offered through employers lack certain options, like trip cancellation or interruption insurance. You can purchase these on their own to complement your company’s travel insurance.

Also, some employee plans only cover the employee, so if you are travelling with your family, ask your insurance specialist about a family travel insurance plan, for both medical or trip cancellation/ interruption insurance.

The summer sees more people travelling over the border, making the most of the warm weather and school vacation. It’s also the time many discover they’re under-insured when they incur steep unexpected medical expenses in a foreign country.

These can, however, be easily avoided by asking a few pertinent questions before you go.

Does BC Medical Services Plan cover everything?

Provincial health care is unlikely to cover all of your medical expenses incurred out of province, or overseas. In fact, the Canadian government recommends that travellers purchase travel insurance when leaving the country because of the extremely high cost of medical care outside of Canada.

George Underwood’s contribution to Canadian military efforts earn him recognition Devon MacKenzie News staff

War veteran, Tsawout elder and longtime Peninsula resident George Underwood was honoured with a Diamond Jubilee Medal earlier this week (July 31).

The Diamond Jubilee Medal acknowledges Canadians making significant contributions and achievements. Underwood, who was one of 16 children born to Bert and Ellen Underwood of Tsawout, enlisted in the Canadian Army in December of 1941.

He spent five years with the Princess Patricia Light Infantry in some of the most difficult infantry fighting conditions. During his time with the military, Underwood served as a runner, which meant he carried messages and ammunition to soldiers fighting at the front of the group. He left the army in March of 1946 and returned to Canada.

Underwood went on to meet his wife Geraldine and raise 16 children, eight boys and eight girls. He is now a grandfather and great-grandfather to many and has been married to Geraldine for 64 years.

Aside from his contributions to the Canadian military, Underwood is also known for his contributions to the local First

Born in Tsawout, he grew up learning how to hunt, farm and fish among other things, and he grew to be known as an entrepreneurial type. His talents included boat building, fishing, house building and the family tradition of being a grave digger.

Underwood, 86, and his wife are the oldest elders in the Tsawout community and his daughter Mavis said he is a very deserving recipient for the Jubilee Medal.

“My dad, apart from everything else he did, he raised a family of 16,” she said during the ceremony. “He and my mother always made sure we had food on the table and always made sure we knew how important education was and that we always went to school. Now he’s a grandfather and great-grandfather.”

The B.C. legislature’s internal finances are being dragged into the 21st century in response to a damning report from Auditor General John Doyle.

MLAs will start releasing detailed expense reports and conducting Legislative Assembly Management Committee meetings in public starting this month, Speaker Bill Barisoff announced after a hastily arranged meeting to respond to the audit.

Two new financial staff positions are being added to address what Doyle called “pervasive deficiencies” in basic financial accountability.

The audit found that MLA credit card bills were being paid without receipts and the legislative assembly hasn’t produced financial statements despite a 2007 recommendation from the previous auditor general. Legislature bank records didn’t correspond with actual bank balances, and records for the gift shop and dining room don’t allow for efficient management.

Doyle said a future audit will look at the $119,000 allowance for MLA constituency offices, which Barisoff had asked to be exempted from the examination. Transfer amounts and salary expenditures were verified, but other expense claims were not.

SPORTS Lookin’ SHARP(e) Matt Sharpe is proof of Simon Whitfield’s legacy Travis Paterson News staff

Andrew Russell and Matt Sharpe recently learned what happens when training partners end up racing neck-and-neck in the final kilometre of a triathlon.

The two Victoria triathletes finished first and second respectively at the International Triathlon Union’s Continental Cup race in Magog, Que. The final kilometre was a scenario they’d seen many times over the past three years, having linked up dozens of times for training sessions, including many with Olympic team members Simon Whitfield and Kyle Jones. “It was a situation that felt like a session in Beacon Hill Park, just running with your buddy and bringing out the best in each other,� Russell said.

But the race mentality is a different world and even the keen sense of Sharpe, a youngster at 21 years old, couldn’t match the late burst by Russell, who finished 16 seconds ahead for the win. “We could see the turnaround point and knew we were quite a ways from the other runners behind us, so the race tactics shifted to us,� Sharpe said. “I know how fit Russell is, so I relaxed a bit as I knew he was going to surge. I figured he would and on the final kilometre I couldn’t match him.�

The win is Russell’s first on the ITU circuit, a lifetime achievement he’s been chasing since moving to Victoria from Revelstoke with pro intentions five years ago.

And Sharpe has no problems finishing second to 30-year-old Russell.

It was only the fourth ITU race for Sharpe, a Claremont secondary grad and he’s fast becoming an international threat, making a seamless transition from under-23 to the elite category. Last year Sharpe won his second Olympic distance race, taking gold in the U23 Pan American Cup race in

On July 8 Sharpe was eighth overall at the Edmonton ITU Triathlon World Cup race (Kyle Jones took gold). Sharpe was also the first among the U23 competitors in Edmonton, clinching him the Canadian U23 championship for 2012. “Most athletes go through some growing pains with this transition as they figure it out,� Russell said. “Not Matt, who went from cramping and running the slowest 10 km of his life in his first ITU to winning in San Francisco three weeks later, trumping two current Olympians in the process.�

Sharpe has blossomed under the guidance of coach Patrick Kelly and the National Triathlon Centre. He’s also trained with Russell and Whitfield, most recently for a two month stint in New Zealand earlier this year. “We met up with some more world class athletes and it was huge for my development,� Sharpe

Town of Sidney NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARINGS BYLAWS NO. 2024 & 2025 Notice is hereby given that the Council of the Town of Sidney will hold Public Hearings in respect of Bylaws No. 2024 and 2025, being the proposed amendments to Official Community Plan (OCP) Bylaw No. 1920 and Zoning Bylaw No. 2015 for the Town of Sidney.

All persons who believe that their property is affected by the proposed amending bylaws will be afforded a reasonable opportunity to be heard or to present written submissions respecting matters contained in the bylaws at the Public Hearings to be held at the Sidney Town Hall, 2440 Sidney Avenue, Sidney, BC on Monday, August 13, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. Written submissions can be received at the Town Hall prior to 4:00pm on August 13, 2012 or at the Public Hearings themselves.

The purpose of Bylaw No. 2024 is to add a policy to Section 5, Residential Lands, of the OCP to state that despite any other policy, objective or provision contained in the OCP, single family residential use may be permitted by subsequent zoning bylaw in areas designated Multi-Family Residential in this OCP on lands where the use existed on July 30, 2012; and also to add to Section 20, Design Guidelines for Multi-Family Residential, a statement saying that Development Permits are not required for the development of new single-family dwellings or alterations to existing single-family dwellings.

The purpose of Bylaw No. 2025 is to add Single Family Dwelling as a permitted use in the Multi-Family Low Density Residential (RM5) zone, Multi-Family Medium Density Residential (RM6) zone, and Multi-Family High Density Residential (RM7) zone, with the condition that the use is only permitted on properties listed in a table in the bylaw. Properties listed are generally those occupied by single- and two-family residential dwellings that were made legal non-conforming in terms of use by the adoption of Zoning Bylaw 2015 in June 2012, and also those properties that were occupied with legal non-conforming single- and two-family residential uses prior to the adoption of Zoning Bylaw 2015. Bylaw 2025 would also add regulations to the General Spatial Regulations and Setback Regulations tables contained in Section 5.3 (Buildings and Structures: Multi-Family Residential) of Zoning Bylaw 2015, to control minimum lot area, maximum residential density, maximum lot coverage, maximum building height, maximum number of storeys, and minimum building setbacks to lot lines. Bylaw 2025 would also add general building regulations for Single-Family Dwellings in the Multi-Family Building Regulations section of Zoning Bylaw 2015.

Copies of the proposed bylaws and all background documentation may be inspected during normal working hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday (excluding statutory holidays) from July 27, 2012 to August 13, 2012 at the Sidney Town Hall, 2440 Sidney Avenue, Sidney, BC.

PENINSULA NEWS REVIEW - Friday, August 3, 2012

POLICE NEWS IN BRIEF

Wacky driving elicits call to cops A concerned driver who reported an erratic vehicle driving westbound down Keating X Road drew a police response July 30 around 7:30 p.m.

The vehicle turned in to the Co-op parking lot near the intersection of Keating X and Veyaness Road where Central Saanich officers stopped the 55-year-old man driving.

They noted the smell of alcohol and gave the driver a roadside screening test which he failed twice.

The driver was issued a 90 day roadside prohibition and his vehicle was impounded for 30 days.

Beach romance gets awkward for families A beach-goer enjoying the day at Island View called police

at 3:30 p.m. on July 28 to say there was an intoxicated couple on the beach groping each other and that families at the beach that afternoon were uncomfortable.

When police attended the beach, they found a 49-yearold man and a 44-year-old woman with open liquor.

The two North Saanich residents were issued tickets for consuming liquor in public and were sent home in a taxi.

The woman on the motorcycle was knocked to the ground, but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sustain any serious injuries.

The two parties had conflicting reports of which turn indicator the car driver had on, so no charges were laid.

Long lost necklace still wanted by owner

Right turn goes wrong for motorcycle driver Around 3 p.m. on July 27, a woman from Ontario was driving northbound and attempted to turn in to the parking lot near Villages Pizza in Brentwood Bay when a motorcycle driven by a Central Saanich woman passed her on the right side. The driver of the car hit her.

A woman reported a lost necklace to Central Saanich police July 17.

The necklace is described as being a 1.25 carat diamond surrounded by sapphires and cast in platinum. It was lost sometime around May 24 but the woman wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure of where or the exact time it went missing. The insured value of the necklace is said to be $17,000.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Central Saanich police at 250-652-4441.

Slo-pitch tourney raises funds for Child Find B.C.
