Cyclist killed in crash with car Brentwood intersection ‘chaotic’: area resident Wanda Chow

wchow@burnabynewsleader.com

A 62-year-old Burnaby man was killed when he was struck by a car while cycling in the Brentwood area Tuesday afternoon. The incident happened at about 1:30 p.m. at the intersection of Brentwood Drive and Beta Avenue. The cyclist is believed to have been leaving the Brentwood Town

Centre mall parking lot and was eastbound headed toward Brentwood Drive, said Burnaby RCMP Staff Sgt. Major John Buis. It’s possible his view was obstructed by the hill and a lineup of idling traffic. The driver of the car was northbound up the hill on Beta and believed to be heading into the mall site. The cyclist was not believed to be wearing a helmet and it’s possible he failed to stop at a stop sign, Buis said Wednesday.

He died at the scene. The driver is not from the area, remained at the scene and was cooperating with police, he said. Longtime area resident Terry MacDonald said the road closure from the incident diverted traffic from Beta onto Delta Avenue for hours. He was not shocked to hear about the accident. “I’m not surprised at all. It’s a chaotic area that we’ve tried to address with the city.” The intersection at Beta on the

north side of Lougheed opened in 2002 when the SkyTrain line came in, said MacDonald. It’s a move that was supported by the Brentwood Ratepayers Association to help traffic get from the mall to Lougheed more easily. But Beta was never blocked off to restrict access from the residential streets up the hill to the north, which turned it into a rat-running route for commuters trying to avoid Lougheed and Willingdon, he said. please see steep road, a3

Kinder Morgan went on the defensive after the company made headlines this week for seeming to suggest that oil spills can have economic benefits. As reported in the NewsLeader in January, the company’s application to the National Energy Board to expand its Trans Mountain pipeline includes oil spill maps. They show that, based on modeling, crude oil could flow through Burnaby neighbourhoods on the way to local waterways in the event of a rupture or spill. But there are positives to such an event, it says in its 15,000-page application. “Spill response and clean-up creates business and employment opportunities for affected communities, regions, and clean-up service providers.” National media splashed the assertion across its headlines. But the statement was taken out of context, says Ian Anderson, president of Kinder Morgan Canada. The statement comes from a section in the application that “looks in-depth at the please see spiLLs, a3

Phase 2 of Station Square set to launch New retail spaces to reopen in spring 2015 Wanda Chow

wchow@burnabynewsleader.com

It’ll be another year before shoppers get their Station Square mall back. But it’ll be a new and improved one to serve people walking along one of the most heavily travelled pedestrian corridors in the Lower Mainland, says Greg Zayadi, vice-president of sales and marketing for mall owner Anthem Properties. That would be the corridor connecting the mall to Metrotown SkyTrain station and Central Boulevard. It’s all part of the redevelopment of the 12-acre mall site, a joint project between Burnabybased Beedie Development Group and Anthem Properties, which will add five condo towers as well

as offices and new retail spaces right next door to Metropolis at Metrotown mall. The previous incarnation of the shopping centre on the Central Boulevard end has been gutted and added onto, new windows will be installed and all the mechanical and electrical systems replaced. The surface parking lot in front of the former Future Shop store has been dug up to add two levels of parking underneath. “That openness that used to exist will still exist and the area will be available for night markets and open-air events,” said Houtan Rafii, vice-president of residential development for Beedie Living. The way people move through the site from the SkyTrain station and beyond was closely studied and incorporated into the design, Zayadi noted. It’s been designed to be pedestrian friendly, with

various socio-economic effects of a worst-case-scenario spill, but we all know that at the end of the day the total effect of a spill is negative and every effort must be expended to prevent such a thing from happening,” Anderson said in a statement. “Let me be clear: No spill is acceptable to me anywhere, anytime, for any reason. Spills are not good for anyone. Period.” And while the project has “many positive economic benefits,” he said, “Spills are not part of our economic benefits analysis, nor do we in any way say that money spent on spill response would be justification for our project.”

Phase 2 will include two towers, 38 and 48 storeys high, with a total of 767 apartments. On top of an office/commercial podium will be a one-acre rooftop park with play area for residents.

walking areas level with the roadway. More retail space has been added where the movie theatre used to be. And even though it’s not set to open until spring of 2015, it’s already 90 per cent leased, said Zayadi. Tenants already confirmed include Bed Bath and Beyond, Future Shop, Rexall, Tim Hortons, Pet

Smart, Dollarama, Boston Pizza and Neptune Seafood Restaurant. In Phase 1 of the project located on the Kingsway end of the site, there will be an Overwaitea supermarket—either a Save-On-Foods or PriceSmart—and a TD Bank. The overall site will also be home to two locations of Caffe

Artigiano, one each at the north and south ends. Just to the south of the first phase will be Phase 2 of the project, where the old Save-On-Foods used to be. It will include a “restaurant row” of two to three eateries built in the Yaletown, loading-dock style with outdoor seating above street level, said Rafii.

Construction is underway on the Phase 1 first tower, a 35-storey, 269 unit highrise on Kingsway on the northeast corner of the site where the Red Robin restaurant used to be. The condos will sit on top of two floors of office and retail on the ground floor. It’s scheduled for completion in fall of 2015. Phase 2 is set to launch sales later this month and start construction this September for completion in the fall of 2018. It will include two towers, at 38 and 48 storeys, totalling of 767 apartments on top of a podium with offices and commercial space. The fourth level will include a one-acre, rooftop park with children’s play area and waterfall for the use of residents of Towers 2 and 3. Phase 2 will also include eight electric cars to be owned and operated by the strata and 85 electric car parking stalls.

And then in 2008 or so, the condo development was built on the east side of Beta, which only added to the traffic congestion. “Where this incident took place is where you have rat-running traffic heading down the hill from Brentlawn Drive, you’ve got ratrunning traffic coming up the hill from south of Lougheed Highway on Beta, you’ve got traffic going in and out of Brentwood Town Centre, and you’ve got traffic going in and out of

Brentwood Drive, the high-density apartments,” he said. “It’s a very congested intersection. Coupled with vehicles now using it as a rat-running route, you’ve got a combination of a great deal of pedestrian traffic, cycle traffic, and automobiles all fighting for space.” Burnaby’s assistant director engineering Doug Louie said he believes the accident took place at the lane just south of Brentlawn Drive, an intersection that has not been a particular issue.

But the mall driveway on Beta closest to Lougheed is being monitored due to the number of pedestrians crossing between the mall and Brentwood Gate, the housing development to the east. “It’s an awkward area because of the steepness of the road and it’s close to a signalized intersection which makes it challenging.” But there are plans, as part of the mall site’s redevelopment, to make the area more pedestrian-friendly, with crosswalks and road narrowing.

Judge dismisses pricey legal claim over fender-bender Questions credibility, awards plaintiff $53K Wanda Chow

wchow@burnabynewsleader.com

A Coquitlam man was awarded $53,000 in damages in B.C. Supreme Court recently in connection with a minor fenderbender in Burnaby. That’s a far cry from the $1.2 million to $4.4 million he was seeking through the civil suit for lower back pain he says he suffered. The plaintiff, Rich Zajaczkowski was driving a Dodge Ram pickup in stopand-go traffic on Sept. 19, 2008 when he was rear-ended by a small sedan on Highway 1 in Burnaby, near the Gaglardi Way exit. Zajaczkowski was wearing his seatbelt and the airbags did not deploy. The driver of the sedan, Breedon Grauer, testified he doesn’t believe he had even hit the gas before the impact but rather, had only taken his foot off the brake. A few days later, Zajaczkowski felt pain in his lower back which he claims has been persistent enough it

has affected his earnings as a renovation contractor. But there were serious questions about his credibility, said BC Supreme Court Justice George Macintosh in his reasons for judgment. Zajaczkowski frequently admitted during the trial his memory is poor. For instance, he was not able to say exactly how much education he had. In court, it ranged from Grade 9 to Grade 12. But he told one of his doctors he finished Grade 8 and another that he has a college education. And while he submitted written quotations for renovation work he says he could never take on because of the injury, lawyers for the defence tracked down one of the clients cited. That client testified that her dealings with Zajaczkowski were typical of a client-contractor relationship and that he told her last December that he was booked up with work until March 2014. “The Plaintiff misled the Court,” Mcintosh said. “The quotation for Ms. Balano does not show the kind of work the Plaintiff can no longer do. It

shows the kind of work the Plaintiff can do and is doing.” Zajaczkowski had little documentation to prove his estimates of lost income, repeatedly saying his accountant is reorganizing his books. “A problem Mr. Zajaczkowski faces in advancing his claim stems from his concession, supported by the evidence, that his business has improved, and earned him more money since the accident than before.” Mcintosh also could not find medical evidence that his pain from the accident was so great that it hurt his earning capacity. Mcintosh noted Zajaczkowski had “largely failed” to do strengthening exercises as recommended by one of his professional advisors. The judge did accept that the back pain has persisted and “aggravated his life” in awarding him $40,000 in nonpecuniary damages. He also awarded $10,000 towards a gym membership to launch him on a strengthening program, and $3,000 in special damages for medications and similar expenses. twitter.com/WandaChow

PHOTO OF THE WEEK: This shot was taken by Lisa Clahasen outside her South Burnaby home on April 30.

Setback in polio fight The pronouncement this week from the World Health Organization that the spread of polio is an “international health emergency” must come as blow to local Rotarians. But rather than deter them, it will likely steel their resolve. They have fought too long and too hard to allow such an insidious disease to regain a foothold. Their challenge, however, is that they are not just fighting an illness, they are fighting ignorance. Polio, by any measure, is a horrible disease. Those it does not kill, it leaves crippled or horribly contorted. Even those who escape death or disability can face complications years later in life. For most of us, polio is a disease of the past; a memory like typhus, or cholera. But it wasn’t that long ago that the threat of polio gripped this country. It was a time when the slightest hint of the disease closed schools and cancelled public events. Parents shuttered their children indoors for fear they might contract the deadly illness. It wasn’t until Jonas Salk introduced the first vaccine in 1951 that North America began to see an ebb in the disease. Soon, through extensive education – and a lot of money – that success was spread internationally. It was only a few years ago that the Rotary Club International, thanks to a massive donation by the Gates Foundation, was predicting the worldwide eradication of the disease in our lifetime. But ignorance is a powerful force. Rather than welcome a tool that could protect their children, the ignorant, angry and fanatical see some devious threat. In countries like Pakistan and Sudan aid workers risk their own lives to vaccinate the innocent. It’s a reminder that while we can vaccinate against a disease, an inoculation against idiocy is still a long way off. —Chilliwack Progress

With age, the conversation changes When you’ve lived in one town for a long time, you are forever running into friends or acquaintances wherever you go. It may be in the grocery store aisle, a coffee shop, a restaurant or the mall. Maybe they are a former co-worker or classmate and you stop a minute or two to catch up. Last week I met three other men I knew, all at the same time. It was 6:55 a.m., and we were waiting in line, requisitions in hand, for the bio-medical lab to open. And so life moves on to another chapter. Instead of discussing hunting, fishing, trucks or grandchildren, we talked about cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes and heart rates. We kept checking our watches. Not that any of us really had anywhere to go, but we had all been fasting for 10 to 12 hours. As soon as someone tells you not to eat or drink anything, you become hungry and thirsty. If someone had come along with a cart selling coffee and a

Jim McGregor doughnut for $10, they would have made a killing. Somebody in the lineup mentions you can go online for some labs and clinics and make an appointment. We raise our eyebrows at this suggestion. The procedure we always follow is to go to the doctor, get the paper work and wait our turn at the lab. For us, to fire up the computer, go online, search for the right site, fill in the blanks and make an appointment would surely create stress and increase our heart rate, which is probably why we are coming here in the first place. Once inside, we take our numbers and disappear into various curtained cubicles.

We leave with our little round Band-Aids stuck on our arms, to cover the gaping wound from the blood test. We wear it like a badge of courage for awhile, so we can tell people about the huge steel needle that was thrust deep into our flesh. Even a little sympathy at our age is well-appreciated. Yes, eventually it seems we spend more time in the doctor’s office than on the lake, but we have to learn to go with the flow and accept the changes. Find the positives. A lady shared that her coffee group had been meeting weekly for years, but recently the conversations were less about gardens and travelling and more about kidneys, gall bladders, hearts and lungs.

The food was great and the young waitresses were very beautiful. As they got into the elevator to leave, the young man asked, “Grandpa, if the elevator got stuck between floors, which one of those pretty waitresses would you like to have trapped in there with us?” Grandpa replied, “I guess the one that knew how to fix elevators.” Our priorities change as we age, we become much more practical.

MOTHER’S D Y Mom seeks to inspire others to quit Mother’s Day is coming fast, and the BC Lung Association wants to help any moms who want to quit smoking by providing them a little incentive. They’ve launched an online “quit & win” contest through the province-wide smokingcessation program QuitNow.ca. The contest challenges women to blow off for one full week (June 2 to 8) for a chance to win $1,000 cash. BC Lung has also called upon members of its QuitNow community to share personal quit stories in the hope of inspiring others, beginning with proud ex-smokin’ mom, Mallika Dumma. Mallika is a mother of two who smoked a pack a day until she quit on September 16, 2013. “I’d tried to quit before, but only halfheartedly,” said Mallika. “Smoking was a huge part of my life. Before I quit, I couldn’t get ready or be nice until I had my coffee and about two cigarettes outside. Now I start the day with water, exercise and enjoy my coffee while my kids eat breakfast.” What finally motivated Mallika to stop smoking was her kids. “My two beautiful children, 6 and 2, are the biggest reasons I quit for sure. When your kids wish you didn’t smoke, it is just heart breaking. I grew up feeling that way, my mom smoked too.” Working in the health care industry was another reason. “I work in the healthcare industry and it hit me one day. How can I provide care and promote the health and well-being of others if I’m smoking like a chimney?” And while she had experimented with different quit tools, Mallika ultimately managed to quit cold turkey.

New Westminster mom Mallika smoked a pack a day until she quit in September 2013. She says she was scared before she finally took the plunge, especially because smoking was a central part of her daily routine.

“No meds, no counselling, no nothing, except of course the support of my family and especially my kids. I still occasionally get weak when I smell or see people smoking, but I know in the end it’s ridiculous to let something so unhealthy have control over you.” Mallika encourages everyone who’s thinking of quitting to just give it a shot—that the anticipation is worse that the actual experience. “It took me a long time to commit. I thought no way—I’ll lose it, I’ll panic. I was scared, but I want everyone to know that’s normal. Nothing worth having or doing is ever easy. The challenge is the fun, and getting it right starts by trying.”

Man arrested in restaurant B&E A Burnaby resident is facing charges in connection with a break-in at a Columbia Square restaurant last month. New Westminster police say the establishment’s alarm went off at 3:44 a.m. on April 17. When they got there they found evidence someone had been inside but had fled the scene. Shane Harold Davidson, 41, was arrested following an investigation and is charged with break and enter. Police say Davidson faces additional counts of escaping custody from jurisdictions throughout the Lower Mainland.

The Burnaby Fire Department responded to fewer fires and more medical emergencies in the first three months of this year, according to its quarterly report presented to city council last Monday. Firefighters battled 104 building fires from January to March compared to 163 at the same time last year. They also attended 2,075 medical emergencies, up from 1,933 in the first quarter of 2013. Motor vehicle incidents were about the same with 378 this year, seven more than a year ago. The firefighters themselves were also a bit safer this year, as they suffered 23 incidents of occupational injuries or exposures, including two that resulted in time lost, while last year there were 125 such occurrences. But almost half of those were suffered while crews battled a fire that destroyed an apartment building at 3526 Smith Ave., and another 12 were exposures to asbestos during an incident at 7800 14th Ave. So far no one has been injured or perished because of a fire.

Question OF THE WEEK:

Driveway editor Keith Morgan writes today about how a 3-day rally along picturesque B.C. roads turned him to the idea of a B.C. summer ‘staycation’. Will you do a road trip holiday though B.C. this year, and if so where to? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK!

Safety Tip: As the weather continues to get warmer, drivers should expect to share the road with more motorcyclists, cyclists and pedestrians. When turning at an intersection, use extra caution and look out for these other road users to help keep our roads safe.
