No tax hike floated for ’14

City manager says 0% tax increase is an achievable goal Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News

Abbotsford will not raise taxes in 2014, and will be able to “do more with less,” said city manager George Murray.

A report from city staff was approved by council on Monday, and city manager George Murray said the “lofty” goal of a zero per cent tax increase is achievable.

“We are sending a message to staff that has now been confirmed by council, that we are looking for a net zero tax increase for the 2014 budget.”

In the 2013 budget, the total tax increase was 2.06 per cent. The 2013 increase in utility rates was five per cent for sewer and two per cent for

storm drainage. Water and solid waste did not increase.

In the proposal for 2014, only sewer rates will increase by five per cent, in order to fund projected capital requirements.

The report from staff states that the 2014 financial plan will be developed to reflect the cost of providing core service levels equivalent to 2013, and increases will be provided only for contractual obligations such as salaries and benefits, utilities and insurance.

“Any inherent cost drivers, things like increases in costs of utilities, staffing, gas for vehicles, rent, what we have, will have to be reduced in other areas of the budget in order to

make sure that we have a zero or negative tax increase in the next year.”

Murray said each department will look at their budget, analyze expenditures and try to find more efficient and effective ways to do business without impacting services.

Murray said it will be a difficult task, as there is an increase in the downloading of services from other levels of government and increased public expectation.

“I think that the ratepayers are getting fatigued of having to pay more and more for local government services. We hear it constantly from our community. I think that this organization has the staff who can make this happen … and maintain services.”

CELEBRATING OVER

25 YEARS IN ABBOTSFORD

Left to right: Gus Hartl and Angelo Rea

In May of this year, the Aldergrove Financial Group has completed the pledge of $50,000 to the Abbotsford Hospice Society to build Holmberg House. This signiÀcant support of this Visionary level donor will go towards the building of Holmberg House, the Àrst adult hospice residence in Abbotsford.

The presentation was made in 2011 by the Aldergrove Credit Union (ACU) CEO Gus Hartl to Angelo Rea, AHS Board Chair.

At the time CEO Gus Hartl said “This facility is vital to the community and will house the existing Society and a hospice residence for adults 19 years and older suffering from a terminal illness. As an organization we are so proud and honoured to play a part in the building of this facility – we know the positive impact it will have on the community and how much it will help those who need to utilize it”.

Once again, Holmberg House has received signiÀcant community support.

Very soon, businesses and organizations in the Abbotsford area will receive an information package to participate in the 5th Annual Trees Of Hope. Last year sold out early and there are a limited number of trees, so please send your registration back right away!

QUESTION

WebTalk

Homeless camps

OF THE WEEK Do you think the City of Abbotsford is spending too much on the salaries of upper-level civic employees?

While I feel for the homeless at the same time I also think that they need to take responsibility for their actions, including that of their camps.

Many sites are littered with garbage and kept in an unsightly and even unhealthy manner, while I have also seen others that were neat and tidy as could be expected.

Robert Kleisinger

To answer, go to abbynews.com

You are demanding that mentally ill people take cognizant responsibility. Priceless.

Alan Rolfo

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Do you support a plan to build a 20-unit facility for homeless men in the downtown area?

It is so easy to criticize the establishment like city hall, the police or the government! My question is: What would I do better than if I was in their position? I, for one appreciate so much our police force, our city management/workers for the hard work they do. Maybe those who are so “offended” would like to offer a solution like inviting some of the homeless to camp in their backyard for a while. This would improve the Abbotsford image and resolved your “so ashamed” problem.

On Point Nine managerial positions eliminated, and one union job cut. Parks and rec and engineering departments restructured. $1.25 million saved annually.

Two senior department heads leaving.

Considering the city has close to 1,000 people on its payroll, a one per cent reduction in positions could be considered minor.

But for the City of Abbotsford, which has dug deep into taxpayers’ pockets in recent years, this is a major move, as is the prospect of a zero per cent tax increase next year.

Both are indications that the winds of change are blowing in city hall, and high time.

I’d label all of that very much in the public interest.

Then there’s the matter of the two senior department heads leaving – general manager of economic development Jay Teichroeb, and GM of finance Pat Soanes. With salary levels in the $200,000 range their compensation packages will presumably be pricey.

However, they’re not part of the 10 positions being cut, according to Murray, so whatever payout they receive wouldn’t be offset against the $1.25 million.

Assuming there are no further hires for the positions eliminated, and particularly, new ones, the savings will be there next year.

This was a welcome move. Another one would be a council commitment to a hiring freeze for the next year or two or three. Another would be a salary freeze in city hall.

Those initiatives would tell taxpayers that this demonstration of fiscal responsibility is not only a restructuring but a change of core governance philosophy.

letters Thanks for rescuing pony It’s never good news when a horse is loose.

Our pony is old, small and has very limited vision. The bad ending possibilities are limitless, from being disoriented and frightened, wrecking people’s lawns, gardens and crops, to coyotes and dogs, to getting tangled in berry wire, to causing terrible car crashes.

Thanks to everyone who aided in the search for her – from the people who scoured berry fields in the wee hours of the morning, handed out flyers, neighbours who kept their eyes out for her, the lady who called on the flyer,

the people who got her off the road and to a safe place, the people who tucked her in their barn till we could fetch her.

Thanks to the anonymous man “Mark, who lives in the Ledgeview area,” who took the time not only to move our pony off the road, but also to lead her a couple of kilometers down Zero Ave to the nearest horse property where she would be safe, aided by a nearby resident who followed with her flashers on.

Kudos for Abbotsford school superintendent Kevin Godden on thinking of proposing letter grades – the worst form of assessing students’ capabilities with percentage marks coming a close second – being dropped.

As a life-long advocate of “mastery learning,” there is only one mark on my students’ report cards – “Mastered.”

Actually, I used to give parents a detailed description of the skills and knowledge that their child should have learned in the semester, on a hand-written sheet of paper.

And, I would visit all my students’ homes at “report card time,” but then that was during my tenure in a small Ojibwa village in northern Ontario and a small lumber town in B.C.’s interior.

I was not one to endorse the 81-127-45 computerized system used in the late 1970s where the numbers stood for pre-written comments that may have had little relevance to some of my students.

Parents who only want letter grades or percentage points are, in my opinion, lazy parents and the educational system should not cater to

The Abbotsford Police Board has issued commendations to two local citizens for their actions in rescuing a man and a woman who were attacked by two dogs.

The separate incidents took place on Lilac Crescent in Abbotsford at about 12:30 p.m. on March 15.

Byron Wiebe was driving when he saw two dogs push a woman to the ground and begin mauling her.

He quickly left his vehicle, and repeatedly kicked the dogs until they let go of the woman and ran off.

Wiebe stayed with the victim until emergency services arrived. The woman suffered several large gashes to her arm which required immediate surgery, as well as puncture wounds to her

face and leg that required several stitches.

Soon after, Adam Pampalon was driving along the street when he noticed two aggressive dogs attack a man from behind and bite him on the back of the leg.

Pampalon got out of his vehicle, grabbed a golf club, and charged at the dogs to scare them away.

The victim required five stitches.

The two dogs were later apprehended by animal control.

The commendations recognize Pampalon and Wiebe for their “quick response, courageous actions and willingness to place (themselves) at risk to rescue another.”

Pampalon and Wiebe were formally acknowledged at the monthly meeting of the Abbotsford Police Board on Tuesday.

7-Eleven robbed SCHOOL DISTRICT

NEWS Achievement Report: District Plan for Student Success The 2013/14 District Achievement Contract was formally presented to the Board of Education June 18 by Superintendent Kevin Godden. Entitled Achievement Report: District Plan for Student Success, it is an annual document required by the Ministry of Education to outline the Board’s plan for improving student learning. The two main goals laid out in the plan are: to improve achievement for all learners; and to improve graduation rates in the district. The plan outlines a range of bold initiatives designed to improve student literacy and numeracy in the early grades, and enhance choice and flexibility for students at the secondary level. The “Accountability Contract” outlines initiatives to improve what is already one of the highest graduation rates in the province. It is a living document; as district staff receives new data from district and provincial assessments, the objectives and corresponding actions will be updated in support of the district’s ongoing improvement. The new document is available via the district website www.sd34.bc.ca

Abbotsford students capture gold at national skills It was a golden result for three Abbotsford students competing in the national Skills Canada competitions at BC Place in Vancouver in the first week of June. Alongside hundreds of students from across the country, seven Abbotsford Career Programs students participated, as they represented BC as winners of the provincial Skills BC competitions in April. In the Culinary competition, Abbotsford Senior Secondary’s Amie Peters won national gold, while in the 3D animation competition, Abbotsford Virtual School’s Conor Nolan and Patty Chomseng (who also attends Rick Hansen Secondary) created the gold medal winning animated project. Other Abbotsford School District students competing were: Elijah Balujan and Karmyn Chretien from Robert Bateman Secondary in 2D Animation; Davejot Sidhu, in Architectural CAD and Casey Lenning in Electrical Wiring.

Store hit early Monday

The 7-Eleven convenience store on Immel Street was robbed early Monday morning.

A c c o r d i n g to Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald, a male suspect came into the store at about 4:15 a.m.. The suspect was wearing a welding mask and was brandishing a tire iron.

“He ultimately helps himself to the till and gets a very small amount of cash,” said MacDonald.

He explained that 7-Eleven has a “diligent” policy of putting

MacDonald said the thief only got a few dollars before he headed back out the door.

searched a woman in a gas station washroom.

The incident stems back to Aug. 15, 2009 when Const. Karen Burridge and another officer were tipped off that Jocelyn Gowland was carrying drugs.

Gowland filed a complaint at the time and the investigation determined that even though Burridge did not inform Gowland of her rights, her actions did not constitute misconduct.

Retired judge William Dieblot was then appointed by police complaint commissioner Stan Lowe to investigate the matter further, but he also came to a similar conclusion.

Justice Elliott Myers has dismissed the application, noting Lowe’s legal counsel was unable to point to anything that indicated intentional or reckless misconduct.

Attending an after school program has a positive result on student attendance and learning. A report on the district’s ‘Around School’ program which provides after school programs for students in vulnerable neighbourhoods, notes that over 771 students have participated since the program was approved by the Board of Education in November, 2011. Ten elementary schools and two middle schools were selected initially, and have now completed the two-year pilot phase. Preliminary results indicate that the program has had a significant impact, with marked improvements in student attendance and numeracy skills. Next year’s program will incorporate several recommendations, which include increasing the number of morning programs to support children arriving at school on time; working with community partners to improve chronic absenteeism; and adding parent engagement and outreach components to the existing 12 schools in the program.

It has been a wonderful five weeks of graduation ceremonies and events, as the district’s secondary schools celebrated the 1,560 members of the ‘Class of 2013’.

A significant number of our graduates achieved scholarships to postsecondary institutions across North America. Many will be entering college and university programs in the coming year, while numerous others will be starting careers, working or travelling.

There were many notable accomplishments by these students over the past year in academics, athletics, the arts, and in the areas of leadership, character development, and community service.

Congratulations to you all; have a wonderful and safe summer!

Canada Safeway stores in B.C. have a new owner.

Nova Scotia-based supermarket firm Sobeys, itself owned by Empire Company, is buying the Safeway chain’s 213 Canadian stores for $5.8 billion.

The deal with Safeway Inc. also includes numerous in-store pharmacies, gas stations, liquor stores and other distribution or manufacturing facilities across western Canada.

There are three Safeways in the surrounding area, one each in Abbotsford, Mission and Aldergrove.

Sobeys hasn’t yet decided if it will keep the Safeway name or reflag the stores under one of its brands.

Sobeys already has a presence in B.C. through its IGA and Thrifty Foods brands.

Adding Safeway’s 75 B.C. stores will give Sobeys 107 outlets in this province. That compares to 101 for Overwaitea Food Group, 84 for Loblaws, 25 Walmarts and 14 Costcos.

The change of ownership may also mean changing product lines for customers who continue to frequent the stores, as well as possibly different loyalty card systems.

Both Sobeys and Safeway offer Air Miles reward points but the new operators indicated they will move to eliminate separate loyalty programs.

Big supermarket chains face growing competition as other retailers add groceries to their shelves.

The planned purchase is subject to Competition Bureau approval.

SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT

The detail and scope of our application is matched only by our determination to do it right.

Joint Review Process.

WRITTEN BY JANET HOLDER

Participants

Janet Holder Janet Holder is a proud Britsh Columbian and the senior executive responsible for the Northern Gateway

Project. Janet lives and works in Prince George.

After a decade of careful planning, our application is now before the regulatory authorities. But that doesn’t mean we are finished in making the case for Northern Gateway to British Columbians and all Canadians.

The Northern Gateway Project Joint Review Panel (JRP) deadline for Final Argument has come and gone, and we believe we made the best case for an energy pipeline application ever in Canada’s history.

Critical questions, affirmative answers.

It all boils down to two questions the JRP must address in their report to the Governorin-Council. One is whether Gateway is in the Canadian public interest, and the second

©2013 Northern Gateway Pipelines Inc.

is the Project’s likelihood of causing significant adverse environmental impacts. The answers are clear. Gateway is urgently needed, meets all requirements for approval under the National Energy Board Act and is definitely in Canada’s interest. Given the commitments and safety measures we have proposed, the Project is not likely to cause significant adverse effects on the environment.

Backed by independent experts in their fields.

Northern Gateway’s written and oral JPR evidence was prepared and presented by many of Canada’s and the world’s foremost experts on the related subjects. Each had thorough knowledge of the Project and the relevant scientific and engineering studies completed in support of the Project. Their evidence in favour of Gateway was comprehensive, conclusive and compelling.

Unprecedented in scope, detail and potential.

Our application was defended by answering thousands of Information Requests and presenting a series of nine witness panels.

Together with our partners, we will have spent approximately $500 million on this Project, before receiving approval, including environmental assessments, traditional land use studies, detailed engineering and consultation with communities and First Nations—all over the course of a decade.

Our application details the enormous value of connecting Canadian resources to markets that need those resources for their own economic and social development.

We are completely confident that Gateway can be designed, constructed and operated in a safe and responsible manner— first and foremost. Flowing from this, there are the enormous benefits in terms of jobs and dollars to support schools, hospitals and social programs that define this country and this province.

BY THE NUMBERS

Our application to the National Energy Board (NEB) was one of the largest and most comprehensive submissions ever presented in Canada.

Jarret Bainbridge (left) this year’s winner of the Freshmen contest, shares a celebratory drink with George Hustler, finance manager of Northwestern Air which sponsored Bainbridge in the contest. Twenty contestants battled it out for this year’s title.

Jarret wins Freshman competition At the beginning, 20 young contestants were vying for the title. At the end, only Jarret Bainbridge was left.

The finale of the Freshman competition took place on Monday night at Finnegan’s Pub in Abbotsford. Twenty University of the Fraser Valley students have been battling it out for weeks.

The students were placed into teams of two and matched with a local company. The contestants helped create marketing plans, strategies and even

JOHN MORROW Abbotsford News

raised money for charity as part of the contest.

The public voted online and narrowed the competition down to the final six competitors, plus two wild card entries who raised the most money for charity.

No longer in teams, the eight competitors faced the judges and answered questions about their experience.

In the end Bainbridge rose to the top of the pack.

“It was an extremely close race,” said Andrew Franklin,

publisher of the Abbotsford News.

“More than 31,000 votes were received in five weeks,” added Franklin, calling it a new record for contest response.

Votes came in from the U.S., Brazil, India and England as well as from B.C. For winning the event, Bainbridge receives $5,000 and will start an internship with the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre. He will be working in the marketing department.

Thousands celebrate UFV’s Convocation ’13

The University of the Fraser Valley sent another batch of its best and brightest out into the world on June 13 and 14, as more than 2,000 students graduated and more than half of them attended Convocation ceremonies, crossing the stage at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre.

UFV president Mark Evered addressed the grads at all three ceremonies. He acknowledged friends, families, and guests, and welcomed the graduating students to the ranks of UFV alumni.

He said it was important to have celebrations like Convocation because they highlight the benefits that UFV graduates bring to their communities.

“We will all benefit from the knowledge, skills, critical thinking, and creativity of these graduates. Their success will make our communities, indeed our world, healthier, safer, stronger, and wealthier, not just in an economic sense but also in the richness of the social and cultural development they will inspire.”

STUDENT SPEAKERS Student speakers also shared their wisdom at each of the ceremonies.

UFV’s Teaching Excellence award went to communications instructor Linda Pardy, and the Research Excellence award went to chemistry instructor Noham Weinberg.

Larry Stinson, chair of the UFV Board of Governors, was recognized for his leadership and six years of service on the board, two of them as chair.

A brand new award was bestowed upon Bachelor of Arts graduate Surjit Atwal, who persevered and earned his degree despite the challenges presented by his cerebral palsy. The Surjit Atwal Remarkable Achievement award will be given to future graduates who have also overcome obstacles during their education.

Photographing people New exhibit showcases human moments A new exhibit showcasing a collection of photographic works by Abbotsford artist Fiona Howarth will take place at the Kariton Art Gallery.

The show, entitled People, is being put on by the Abbotsford Arts Council.

People features a series of images of people on the street, focusing on human moments when subjects are unaware of the camera.

“The initial shyness and concern with photographing unknown inhabitants is outweighed by the desire to try and experience the otherness,” said Howarth.

“Often this is romanticized by its differences from our norm, but I attempt to photograph it truthfully in its gritty and unbecoming nature.”

The exhibit captures images of people around the world, including Canada, Morocco, Turkey and Germany.

Howarth has been an avid photographer for more than 10 years and won numerous awards for her work. She had formal training in photography with a Bachelor of Arts from the University of the Fraser Valley.

The show will run from June 28 to July 23 at Kariton Art Gallery (2387 Ware St.). The

Outdoor concert Twilight stage hosts two acts

The Envision Twilight Concert Series continues tomorrow from 7 to 8 p.m. as Bijou du Bayou performs at Fraser River Heritage Park.

Bijoux Du Bayou started as a traditional Cajun/Zydeco cover band, but when the group started performing its own material, other influences crept into the sound. That’s what happens when a bunch of “West Coast Canucks” write Louisiana Zydeco.

Although still strongly Cajun and Zydeco rooted, you can hear New Orleans, Tex-Mex, Calypso, Swing, Rock and Country elements coming through in Bijoux’s distinct sound.

The result is a musical gumbo that’s sort of Cajun and very Canadian, making it Canajun music.

On July 3, Groovedaddy brings its jazz funk to the Twilight stage. The

Wednesday concert runs from 7 to 8 p.m.

Groovedaddy is fairly new, but many of the members have played together for years in other bands.

Chuck Cave (keyboards and alto sax) and Zaf Kundakcioglu (drums and percussion) wanted to form a band to play the music that soothes the soul and moves the feet. They found the perfect guitar player for the group in Jim Verwoerd and a short time later were very happy to add Johan Worst on bass.

Groovedaddy play their own compositions as well as the music of artists like Steely Dan, Lennon-McCartney, and Stevie Wonder.

Whatever they’re playing, it’s “smooth jazz, right down to your soul.”

Admission to the concerts is free. For more information call 604-826-0277 or visit heritageparkmission.ca.

Jenner graduates to junior national team Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News

Chelsea Jenner’s ascendant softball career necessitated some creative thinking when it came time for her high school graduation this week.

Jenner had been slated to march with her Grade 12 classmates at Abbotsford Christian Secondary in commencement ceremonies on Tuesday evening.

But the previous Saturday, following tryouts for the Canadian junior women’s national team in Toronto, the centre fielder had received word that she’d cracked the 17-player roster.

That meant she’d stay in Ontario prepping for the International Softball Federation’s Junior World Championship, which runs July 1-7 in Brampton.

Missing her high school grad ceremony was a small price to pay for Chelsea Jenner, who is with the Canadian junior women’s national team.

Gerry Goertzen had a contingency plan for such a scenario, though. Before Jenner departed for

tryouts, she shot a video with Goertzen of her walking across the stage in Continued on A32

cap and gown to accept her diploma. The video was to be played during the commencement ceremony.

“It’s pretty short, but it’s kind of nice,” she said.

“Basically, I just said (in the video), ‘Sorry I can’t be here, I’m playing in the World Championships.’

“I think my parents are kind of upset I’m not able to walk across the stage,” she added with a chuckle.

“It’s kind of bittersweet, but I feel like this is such

a great opportunity that I don’t mind missing it.”

Shooting the video before actually making the junior national team might indicate a level of confidence heading into the tryout, but Jenner wasn’t taking anything for granted.

“To be honest, I was pretty nervous,” she said.

“Everyone who was at the training camp, I felt we were all pretty equal. I didn’t know how they were going to make the decision.

“But I found out on the Saturday morning that I’d made it, and I was so excited. I keep pinching myself that it’s real.”

The Junior World Championship will feature 16 teams, and Canada’s half of the draw includes the Czech Republic, Great Britain, Korea, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, the United States and Venezuela.

Canada opens against Venezuela on July 1.

“We’re going to be com-

Jenner, who has a softball scholarship to San Jose State University lined up this fall, will also participate in the prestigious Canadian Open International Championship at Surrey’s Softball City, July 12-22.

She’ll suit up for both her club team, the Surrey Storm, and the B.C. provincial squad.

Craig lauds new Canucks coach

Abbotsford forward played three years for Tortorella in Tampa Dan KINVIG

Abbotsford News

Ryan Craig, like most other observers, can’t help but be entertained when he watches John Tortorella’s oft-combative dealings with the media.

But as the Vancouver Canucks introduced Tortorella as their new head coach on Tuesday, Craig told The News that there’s more to the man than a few incendiary sound bites.

And he’s more educated than most on the topic. The 31-year-old Abbotsfordborn forward spent three seasons (200506 to 2007-08) under Tortorella’s tutelage with the Tampa Bay Lightning.

“He’s a good man and a good hire,” Craig said, offering a ringing endorsement of the Canucks’ decision to bring

were in New Jersey playing the Devils in the (2007) playoffs,” Craig said. “That’s the first Brooksie exchange that kind of made it famous.

“But I don’t think anything he says in the press is anything his players don’t already know to a certain extent.”

Tortorella can be as blunt with his players as he is with the media. But Craig, known as a hardnosed player with an honest work ethic, thrived under that tough-love approach in Tampa. He scored 15 goals and 13 assists in 48 games as a rookie in 2005-06, and posted 14 goals and 13 helpers in 72 games the following season before knee and back injuries conspired to sidetrack his progress.

“Each guy reacts differently (to Tortorella),” Craig noted. “You may not like what is said, or the honest truth. It’s very black and white with him.

“You know where you stand. I don’t think you’re going home at night wondering why this happened or that happened. There’s reasons, and he’s going to be fair about it.”

In recent years, Craig has spent more time in the AHL than the NHL. In the summer of 2010, he departed the Lightning organization as a free agent and signed with the Pittsburgh Penguins, getting into six NHL games over the next two years while playing primarily with their farm team, the WilkesBarre/Scranton Penguins.

Last season, with NHL contracts tough to come by with the lockout looming, Craig settled for a one-year AHL deal with the Springfield Falcons.

He turned in a terrific campaign with the Columbus Blue Jackets’ affiliate, serving as captain and posting 20 goals and 27 assists in 75 games.

He’ll be an unrestricted free agent on July 5, and he’s angling for a two-way NHL/AHL contract.

He’s hopeful to get something done with Columbus before free agency opens; if not, he’ll test the market.

“I believe I’ve put myself in a position to be a depth guy to help a National Hockey League team,” he said.

Shifts in Real Estate Market Trends When your neighbours had their house on the market last summer, they had so many potential buyers that they were on the winning side of a bidding war. But as you try to sell your home now, there is just no action.

The real estate marketplace is very fickle. Many factors come into play, the most important ones are interest rates and prevailing prices. In a strong seller’s market, prices tend to escalate. When they reach a certain point,

many prospective buyers will begin to just say “no”, and the listing inventory increases. When this happens, sellers who have priced their homes higher during this period must re-think their pricing strategies. If they don’t, their homes may not sell. Whether you are buying or selling a home, it is important to remember that the shift from a seller’s to a buyer’s market can change very quickly. You can count on us for sound advice on what our market is doing right now.
