Possible land use plan unknown ties to pave way for an industrial business park.

At the time, they said negative impacts of the proposed business park would harm the environment, damage fish habitat, reduce property values and boost noise, while further reducing farmland in Surrey.

The owners’ previous rezoning application with the City of Surrey has been closed. The owners have not indicated what their plans are for the property should the ALR exclusion be approved, telling city staff it’s premature to discuss future land use at this point in the process.

wash” because the study was conducted in November following a heavy rainfall, pointing to minutes by the city’s Agriculture and Food Security Advisory Committee stating the agrologist had not seen the land during regular growing season.

This ALR application is the latest hurdle in the residents’ battle to keep the land their homes overlook as farmland.

Keep West Cloverdale ALR’s campaign began in 2010 against an earlier proposal by the same consortium of land owners to rezone the proper-

Protest planned against Bose Farm tree removal Residents opposed to the removal of more than 200 trees on the historic Bose Farm property plan to protest at the site this evening (Aug. 1).

According to the Save the Bose Forest Facebook group, those against the proposed residential development will meet at 7 p.m. tonight at the A.J. McLellan Elementary parking lot and walk over to the 3.69 hectare (9.1 acre) property at 16420 64th

benkov of Pacific Land Group, who spoke for the land owners, told The Reporter the intent was to rezone the land for industrial uses such as warehouses, offices and showrooms, along with smaller scale industry such as product assembly.

Preliminary drawings in 2010 showed a gas station on the southeast corner at Highway 10 and 168 Street, along with a dozen or so industrial use buildings, two-storey office buildings, and a frontage road with access onto Highway 10 and 168 Street.

The site is designated as agricultural in Metro

Avenue with signs to bring attention to their campaign.

A representative for the developer has said the plan has undergone significant changes since last year in order to keep as many trees as possible. In July of last year, the developer planned to remove 339 trees in a forested area on the site.

In recognition of the heritage component of the property, the developer has agreed to preserve the Henry Bose farmhouse, milk cooling shed, and calf barn.

Vancouver’s Regional Growth Strategy. Any amendments to that designation require a twothirds majority vote in favour by the Metro Vancouver board – as well as a regional public hearing, steps that would occur if the ALC grants permission to exclude the site from the ALR. The City of Surrey’s planning report notes that should the land be removed from the ALR, any future zoning changes would occur only after comprehensive public consultation with owners and residents.

A fresh look at the interurban era Restored interurban in Cloverdale offers glimpse into Langley’s past

O

ne of the new attractions this summer in this area is a must-see for anyone interested in the early history of Langley.

Fraser Valley Heritage Railway has fully restored a B.C. Electric Railway interurban car, and is now operating it on a five kilometre stretch of the original Fraser Valley interurban corridor, now used by Southern Railway of B.C. The interurban operates on most Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, with the first trip at 10 a.m. and the last one at 3 p.m. It leaves from and returns to a wonderful replica of the original Cloverdale station, at 176A Street just south of Highway 10.

Fare is $10 for adults, with children half-price.

Car 1225 was actually the very last interurban car used by the BCER, on its Marpole-Steveston line. Its final trip was on Feb. 28, 1958. Interurban service to Richmond lasted until the opening of the Oak Street Bridge.

In Langley and the rest of the Fraser Valley, interurban service ended on Oct. 1, 1950, with a ceremonial “last run” taking place on Sept. 30. That run featured inter-

urban trains leaving from New Westminster and Chilliwack respectively, and meeting in Langley, where there was a lunch at Newlands Golf Club.

Langley had interurbans for 40 years, and they were vital to the growth of the area. In addition to providing regular transportation for people, with three trains a day each way, they hauled milk, mail and freight. The daily milk trains allowed farmers from many remote areas of Langley to ship milk

to dairies in Vancouver. Mail service was much improved as well, and express service allowed people to quickly obtain items they had ordered from the city.

One of the least-remarked but most important aspects of the building of the interurban line was its key role in the spread of electricity. Because the trains were powered by electricity, provided by the company’s dams, BCER had to erect power lines and substations (the Coghlan substation

on 256 Street still stands). Electric lines were built to other areas, from the transmission line along the railway. This permitted power to flow to commercial districts and homes in those areas, and eventually to farms.

The coming of electricity to farms was revolutionary, as it allowed many more tasks to be performed by fewer people.

I recently looked at an old photo of Murrayville, taken before the coming of the electric lines. The commercial core looks very different without any power lines, and the services offered to people were, of necessity, very limited by the lack of power.

Power lines were strung to many areas, with Langley Prairie (now Langley City) the most notable beneficiary in the early days.

It quickly became the shopping hub of the entire municipality.

Electricity and transportation allowed Langley residents to more fully participate in the advances of the 20th century, and paved the way for the growth and development of this community that continues today.

Swarming ants plague southwest B.C.

European fire ants that swarm and sting people and pets are a growing cause for concern among invasive species watchers.

Jennifer Grenz, development and projects manager for the Invasive Species Council of Metro Vancouver, said the dangerous ants were confirmed here more than a year ago and have been found multiplying across the region at sites in Burnaby, Vancouver, Richmond, the District of North Vancouver and Chilliwack, as well as Victoria.

“The ants can sting you and they swarm very quickly when they detect any ground movement,” Grenz said.

They’ve caused significant reactions in some people, she added.

Dogs and horses can also be attacked by legions of the small red ants, which are hard to distinguish from the many other ant species found in B.C. “It’s really their behaviour which is the defining characteristic,” she said. “This is the latest public safety concern for us.”

The council’s website, www.iscmv.ca, explains how to collect a sample of suspect ants and send it for free identification

by B.C.’s agriculture ministry.

Grenz said residents have found themselves battling huge numbers of the ants because there are often multiple nests in close proximity – up to five or six in a single square metre of soil.

She suspects fire ants are being trucked around the region in contaminated soil that gets dumped at one site and used as fill or landscaping soil somewhere else. They’re thought to have arrived in pot-

Grenz advises h o m e owners to carefully check any new garden plants, compost or top soil for ants before adding it.

Antique tractors rumble into town

By Jennifer Lang Owners of antique tractors are coming from as far away as Merritt, B.C., to compete in this year’s Cloverdale Blueberry Festival Antique Tractor Pull.

The Aug. 3 event – one week earlier than the Cloverdale Blueberry Festival itself – is a day of mighty metal competition at Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino.

Competitors driving pre-1960 tractors will square off in 11 different weight categories, from machines that weigh a tidy 2,500 pounds to vintage behemoths tipping the scales at 12,500 pounds.

Each tractor is hooked up to a sled full of weights, which rises higher and higher in the air as the tractor moves further forward.

The number of tractors competing depends on the weight class.

Organizer Vern Keller is a John Deere man.

The long-time resident of Clayton lives at the end of John Deere Lane, a curving driveway that runs to a garage and outbuilding on his acreage.

That’s where he keeps collection of vintage John Deere tractors. He also owns a couple of classic cars,

including a white, 1959 Cadillac convertible, complete with pristine whitewall tires, original black and white stripped upholstery and gleaming tail fins that veer off into infinity.

Keller says he’ll be entering his 8,500-pound and 7,500 pound, and possibly his 5,500 pound tractors in the compe-

tition.

The festivities at the Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino start at 11 a.m. with live entertainment, and the competition gets underway at noon.

It’s an all ages event, and it’s free to attend.

There will be a barbecue.

New Spousal Separation Mortgage allows financing to 95 percent.

It’s hard enough to get through the process of splitting assets in the event of a Feisal Panjwani, AMP separation or divorce. What if one of you wants to keep the family home?

We can help. Although new mortgage rules mean you can only refinance your home to 80 percent of the value, a Spousal Separation Mortgage allows a buyout to 95 percent, making it easier for one spouse to keep the home. This new mortgage can provide a fair buyout, and possibily pay off the other joint debt.

When one of you wants to keep the marital home, make us one of your first calls. We may be able to help clear some of the financial hurdles. We’ll guide you through the process, structuring the mortgage for the buyout of one spouse, and then help the other spouse with the purchase of a new home as well.

Cloverdale Pharmasave compounds a homeopathic mixture called Metabolic Syndrome Mix that works the same way if not better than HCG. It has homeopathic ingredients that activate and balance hormones in the same way as HCG. It also activates metabolism, curb craving, get rid of excessive water retention, stimulate various endocrinal glands, support stress hormones, and activate liver detoxification. This mixture should produce whatever benefit that HCG can produce, and it is much safer than HCG.

How do I know if an instructor is qualified? educator must be properly trained in teaching methods through an accredited program. Having the rank of Black Belt means a certain physical skill but has no Karen Bennett bearing on the ability to teach.

At Cloverdale Black Belt Academy, instructors complete three levels of instructor training over a 3 to 5 year period before they are certified as an instructor. The training consists of regular weekly training classes in instruction along with a minimum of 300 hours of practical instruction. Each instructor candidate must attend three intense training camps where under the guidance of Master Instructors, they show their physical skill in martial arts, their skill in instruction and their knowledge of and ability to teach all required curriculum. At the camps, the instructor candidates are graded by a panel of Master Instructors to assure that they meet the highest quality standards before being officially certified to teach.

term applies to a product that is legally suitable and approved for human consumption – it is “edible.”

Human foods are much more rigorously tested than food made specifically for animals or “feed-grade” foods. Only pet foods made in human-grade facilities, subject to inspections and approval necessary to have human-grade status can be legally considered 100% human-grade.

On the flip side, Feed-Grade applies to a product that is NOT fit for human consumption – it is “inedible.” This can be because of the ingredients it contains or the way it has been processed. Many poor-quality pet foods fall into this category. They may include by-products, chemicals, fillers and parts from ‘4D’ meats (animals which are dying, diseased, disabled or deceased).

At The Bone and Biscuit Co, we offer a wide selection of both dry and raw pet foods that are Human-Grade. Petcurean is a Canadian company which produces Now Fresh and Go! brands and tests every batch through the manufacturing process to Health Canada Standards.

Q Why is “Human-Grade” food

Black Belt Expert

Education

A: Across different educational jurisdictions reducing class size has been a popular policy initiative over the last 15 years. Intuititively, both parents and teachers Jon Mayan believe that small class sizes will allow for more individual attention and result in higher achievement. However, what does the research say? The research confirms that class size reduction does provide the environment in which teachers are able to teach differently. In smaller classes, they interact with individual students more frequently and use a greater variety of instructional strategies. Students learn more academically and socially; they are more engaged and less disruptive. It is important to note, however, that other factors greatly enhance the benefits associated with smaller class sizes. The more important being the classroom teacher.

When the classroom teacher is given the opportunity and time to learn new instructional strategies, to design quality learning experiences and collaborate more frequently with colleagues, students truly benefit from being in smaller groupings. Often parents will ask me; How many students are expected in my child’s class next year? I share with them the importance of knowing how class size in combination with a professional growth-oriented teacher will benefit their child’s learning and development.

Association of Optometrists, children should have their first eye examination at 6 months Starting From of age.

Once before the child is 3 months old.

Once between the ages of 6 months and 1 year.

Once at about 3 years of age.

Once at about 5 years of age and once every year to age 18.

Early eye examinations are crucial to make sure children have normal, healthy vision so they can perform better at schoolwork or play. It is particularly important that a child have a complete evaluation in the summer prior to entry into Kindergarten. A child who is unable to see print or view a blackboard can become easily frustrated, leading to poor academic performance. Learning is all about vision: 80% of what a child learns in school is presented visually. Good vision is a precious gift, It’s also a daily necessity.

Your teeth play an important role and even one missing tooth can have a negative impact on your remaining teeth and oral health. When a tooth is missing the healthy adjacent teeth tend to tilt, rotate and shift affecting how your upper and lower teeth meet. This can cause problems when chewing and has an impact on surrounding muscles and your jaw joints.

Partial dentures can be a great solution to replace teeth by: • preserving the natural placement of your existing teeth • preventing your remaining teeth from tilting and moving • preventing further damage to your remaining teeth • restoring your smile and improving speech • restoring your ability to eat confidently and efficiently!

Silver medal for Storm

Sizzling Summer Wine Sale!

Cloverdale hosted girls softball provincial championships

By Rick Kupchuk Undefeated through the first two days of play, the Surrey Storm ’95 lost twice Sunday to the White Rock Renegades ’95, and settled for second place at the provincial under-18 girls softball championship at Cloverdale Athletic Park.

The Storm won all four round robin games by a 36-4 aggregate, and were seeded first for the six-team double-knockout playoff round Sunday. The playoff began well, as the Storm topped the Victoria Devils ‘’96 by a 13-5 score, but then they were handed their first loss of the day (31) by the Renegades.

Surrey then stopped the Devils again, winning 10-3 in six innings. Kylie RubensAuguston with a two-run home run, and Taylor Miller and Courtney Patterson
