Vic Gnaedringer and Susan Frizzell show off Polly the puppy on the grounds of the Queen Alexandra Centre for Children’s Health in Saanich. Polly, who is named after one of the first children Queen Alexandra Solarium treated at the original Mill Bay location in the 1920s, will be raised as a guide dog to assist an autistic teen.

Susan Frizzell. The goal is to graduate Polly through the B.C. & Alberta Guide Dogs program as an autism support dog or guide dog. Polly was at the centre of attention last week in front of the Children’s Health Foundation office, as the Saanichbased organization donated
$15,000 to the B.C. Guide Dogs program. In turn, the Children’s Health Foundation were given the opportunity to name Polly. “We chose the name for one of the first children Queen Alexandra Solarium treated at the original Mill Bay location in the 1920s,”
said CEO Linda Hughes of Children’s Health Foundation. “In those days, the focus was tuberculosis and polio. It just goes to show you how the needs of children have changed.” PLEASE SEE: Guide dogs, Page A15
After using their farm as a controversial urban cattle feed lot the past two years, the Alberg family has declared they will remove the cows on Thursday. The Alberg siblings Florence, Gordon and Don, who grew up on the property, forwarded a letter on May 28 to Mayor Richard Atwell, Saanich CAO Andy Laidlaw, members of Saanich council and others, stating their intent. “We hope this will be seen as an act of good faith, while we wait and see what Saanich Council does with our subdivision proposal. It is the same proposal approved by Saanich Planning in 2011 which was rejected by Council standing on ALR,” the letter said. The letter arrived 17 days after council broke the land use stalemate by voting to move forward with a one-time solution to begin the rezoning process prior to requesting the property’s removal from the Agricultural Land Reserve. Zoning approval for the property at 1516 Mount Douglas Cross Rd. has been in a tug-ofwar for nearly 10 years with Saanich council. The family’s 16-lot plan was turned down by Saanich council in 2011, followed by another proposal voted down in 2012. That result led to the Albergs using the property as a cattle feed lot to maintain its economic viability, the Albergs said. The Albergs are now inviting the Gordon Head neighbourhood to meet the developer at an open house on Sunday, June 7 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the property. Roger Tinney of Tinney and Associates, who designed the current subdivision proposal, will be on hand to answer questions. Light snacks will be provided. reporter@saanichnews.com
