Homeowners facing Fraser River tunnelimpacts

sg

t. co m

Deltacouncil has once again argued its case for a secondexit fromLadner Representatives withTransportation Investment Corporation, on behalf of the Ministr y ofTransportation and Transit, on Monday provided council withanupdate onthe George Massey Tunnel replacement project.

DonaldTrapp, executive project director, Fraser River, and Peter Argast, executive-director ofthe Major Projects Branch for Ministr y ofTransportation and Transit, went over timelines, ongoing Hwy.99upgradesandpreparator y construction works.

But thepresentation was also another opportunity formembers ofcouncil to urge theprovince to include a River Road overpass, withthe city this week releasing the findingsof a consultant commissioned by Deltaconcluding the overpass would be a vitalinfrastructure component.

Council was toldtheproject “would notpreclude” future construction of one, andthat theprovince is currently in discussions with Delta staff.

Otherconcerns raised during the presentationincludethe impacton farmlands

The eight-lane tunnel will be composed of six tunnelelementsthat will be fabricated on Deas Islandandtrans-

ported to the site by barge.

The province selected a design-build contractor last yearandconstruction is scheduled to commence in 2026. It is to be open to traffic in 2030, subject to receipt ofanenvironmentalassessment certificate andother regulatory permits.

A dedicated multi-use pathway that will allow walking and cycling willalso be part ofthenew structure, but the application’s referenceconcept still does not includethe River Road overpass.

Costing approximately$4.15 billion, theFraser River TunnelProject is subject to a provincialenvironmental assessment process, which included

another roundof gathering feedback this summer.

The province notesthat the EnvironmentalAssessment Office (E AO) will includethe City of Deltaas a consulted party onthe construction environmental management planand include requirements to mitigate noise and vibration.

An earlier Delta staff report notes that, in general,the city is supportive of thenew tunneland is encouraging theprovince to expedite theproject to minimize impacts to residentsfromthe construction period.

That report also notes thatmost proj-

ect constructionactivities will generally occur within a 10-hour period during the daytime, with limited activities occurring during thenight.

Pile driving is expected to occur over two, five-month periods in the first two years ofconstruction.

Vibrator y pile-driving will be prioritized over impact pile driving where possible to reduce noise levels, the report notes, adding that mobile construction equipment will be fitted with silencers.

The us e of nois e walls is a propos ed mitigation strategy that is expecte d to lower nois e levels at nearby residences

The report also warnsthere is no reference in the application to property value impactsof noise fromconstruction ortheoperation ofthenew tunnel.

“Staffanticipatea significant impact onproperty values in the River Woods neighbourhood during theconstruction period and beyond, withthe highway being closerthan itis currently and the long construction period they will have to endure.

In the city’s comments to the EnvironmentalAssessment Office, staff have reiterated the city’s previous request fortheprovince to offer purchase of River Woods homes in compensation fortheconstruction and future operational noise impacts,” the report adds.

Tsawwassen traditional language now onstop signs

Wants

public to see and hearlanguage

PHILMELNYCHUK

pmeln yc huk @d elta-optimis t. co m

A new word inanold language is nowon stop signs on Tsawwassen First Nations (TFN) lands,a testament to the nation’s past.

“This change is about so much more thantraffic signs,” said Kayleigh Meredith, managerof language and culture.

“Language is at theheart ofwho we are as Tsawwassen people It carries our teachings, our worldviews and it connectsusdirectly to our ancestors and to this land,” she said online

The stop sign shows how to say ‘stop’ in Tsawwassen’s traditional language

“Every time you see this word on a sign, remember it’s not just telling you to stop. It’s reminding usall that Tsawwassen people, language and culture are alive and strong,”

ARE YOUFEDUPWITH STUBBORN

Meredith said. “These new stop signs are more than a traffic signal, they’rea powerful symbolof language revitalization, identity, and reconciliationin action,” TFN said on Facebook

Comments online were generally supportive withmost saying motorists will recognize the sign, thoughitdoesn’t display the word “stop.”

“Shouldn’t be too confusing. A red octagon ispretty universal,” said one comment.

But another comment said people cannotunderstand the language whenit’s expressed inthe phonetic alphabet, pointing out that Canadians have beenusing English spellingsof Indigenous words formore than a century

Meredith saidthey were getting lotsof requestsforthecorrect pronunciation and explains inthe Facebook video how to say the word syllable by syllable.

Tsawwassen First Nations communications team may also produce a video explaining thecorrect

way to say Tsawwassen.

“There area lotof peopleasking about thepronunciationof our nation.

“That’s what we’re hoping is to put out more videoswhere people can just see the language and hear it being spoken.”

According to the First Peoples Cultural Council, linguisticorthographies, or language systems, are based onthe International Phonetic Alphabet(IPA),thealphabet used by linguists to uniquely represent the sounds ofthe world’s languages.

In B.C., linguisticorthographies generally use local formsofthe Americanist variant oftheIPA.

The First Peoples Cultural Council also says that the Quw’utsun’ Hul’q’umi’num’ of Vancouver Island have chosen a practicalalphabetwhich uses only letters found onan English keyboard,plusthe apostrophe.

“This ensuresthat their language can be written, type d, and us ed in email with ease,” saidthecouncil.

Deltasurpasses housing target for latest reportingperiod

SANDOR GYARMATI

sg ya rm ati@delta-optimis t. co m

The City of Delta hasonce again surpassed itshousing target.

That’s according to the latest Housing TargetProgress Report discussed at councilthis week, covering the period from Oct. 1,2024, to Sept. 30,2025.

Anannual requirement by the province, the staff report says thecity has surpassed the required target overthe period by achieving 585 netnewhousingunits.

The report notesthat 633 occupancy permits were issued, includinga townhouse project on48th Avenueand152 unitsof seniors affordable rentalhousing on54A Streetthathas helped the city work towards the rentalunitaffordability guidelines set out inthe Housing TargetOrder.

Whendemolition permitsare taken into consideration,that resulted in585 netnewunits.

However, duringthe reporting period, 50 applications totalling 303proposed housing units were withdrawn by applicantsfromthedevelopment

approvalsprocess, the report adds

The report goeson to note several challenges, including how demolition permits represent the start of a development, but it can be years before an occupancy permitisissued forthe project Undertheprovince’s Housing TargetOrder and reporting format, the city cannotcount newconstructionunitsuntilthey are completed and readyfor occupancy.

Delta was among thefirst group of cities to receivea housing targetfrom the provinceinthefallof2023.

The Ministry of Housing announced at thetimethat Delta’s housing target was 3,607newunits, representingthe number ofnetnewunitsneeded to meet75 percent ofthe totalestimated need

That figure was theminimum numberof newly completed unitsfor Delta withinfive years, ending Sept. 30,2028.

Delta’s previousprogress report last fall,covering the periodbetweenOct. 1,2023, to Sept. 30,2024,noted thecity completed 561 newunitsofhousing overthe period, exceeding thetarget of 514 set by theprovince.

Health-care systembroken

Editor :

Thank you to Delta counciland our South DeltaML A forcontinuing to advocate for better health care in Delta.

Along withthe recent repeat closuresofthe Delta Hospitalemergency department, it’s also unacceptablethat evenwhentheemergency department is open, patients waitthree to five hours (or more) to be seen.

According to the BC ER Doctors website: www.bcemergencycare.

com, “If you are unlucky, and have to waitfor a bed, Delta has by far thelongest emergency department lengthof stay ofall12Fraser Health Authority sites– over36 hours on average. That meanswhen a new sick patient showsupinthe ERthere willnever be an open bed upstairs. The planis : you will have to wait.”

Thereare many other holesinthe B.C. healthcare systemincluding medical procedurestaking from29 to55 weeks

andMRIs up to 159 days. In addition: Delta’s Specialized Seniors Clinic has limited hours- meaning seniors are waiting six to 12months to seea specialist.

The B.C. medical system isbroken andincrisis, while patients suffer in silencetrying to get the helpthey need

Our B.C. government needs to do betterand not just offer Band-Aid solutions and public relations media appearances. Bev Yaworski, Doug Re ynolds

Meanwhile, our region still relieson infrastructure builtfor another era.

At a recentDelta Chamber of Commerce event, even the mayor expressed his frustration at the lack of progress We do appreciate the improvementsalready under way, such as the 78th Street Interchange Project and related roadwork, and we hope this marks the beginningof much more.

Congestion already costs Metro Vancouverup to $1.2 billion annually (C.D Howe Institute),and ever y delay makes the price of fixing it higher

Thisisn’t just aninconvenience;it’s red tape in physical form. If we want Delta, andall of Metro Vancouver,to thrive, we need long-term investment intransportation infrastructure now. Or ville Bovenschen president, Village Farms Canadian Cannabis

I have been reflectingontheopinioncolumn by Mike Schneider (Optimist, Oct. 16).

I’m curiousasI assumethat Mike livesin ourcommunityof South Deltaand has seenhow much housinggrowth has been happening allaroundus,one such example,the Southlands area.

Mayor George Harvie, ismovingfor ward with making decisionsas per what isandisnot sustainablefor “ourlittle town.”

Do Ineed to remind Mikeabout ourunsustainablemedicalinfrastructure? We have been ignored by Fraser Health by beingtheonlycommunityinthe Lower

Mainlandthat doesnot have anurgent care centre.

Council has beenin discussions withFraser Health,andthehealth minister, who responded to thisinquiry to perhapstakethisuponus, anddirectedcouncil to contactacoupleofother communitiesin B.C., andaskhowtheywent abouttakingthison.

Ilistened to Harvie who spoke withCKNW host Simi Sara in response to thefourth Delta Hospital closure so farthis year.

Hisconcernisthat this willthen becomethe burdenof Delta’s taxpayers, perhapsadding to yetanotherincrease in ourtaxes.

Idisagreethat Mayor

Harvieandcouncil have “succumbed to pressure oftheold guard.”

Community Become a bat friendduring Bat Week

Community BatProgram to celebrate Bat WeekOct. 24 to 31

The BC Community Bat Program (BCCBP) is encouraging residents to celebrate Bat Week2025, aninternationalcelebrationof batsand their importance to ecosystemsandcommunities.

Bat Week runsfrom Oct. 24 to 31.

Residents can learn more about bats by visitinga local library,or www.bcbats.ca to download Bat Weekactivities. Teachers canplan activitiesfor students from the BC Bat Edukit Activity Guide. The BCCBP isalso partnering with the Wildlife Rescue Association to offer a bat webinaron Oct. 28.

Register at https ://hello. wrabc.ca/webinar-bats.

“Bats are remarkable creatures that play a vital rolein maintaining the healthof our natural world and economy,” says Danielle Dagenais, BC Community Bat Program Coordinator for the Metro Vancouver –Sea to Sky Region.

In B.C., there areat least 15 speciesof bats “Bats contribute to natural pest control by consuming mosquitoes, as wellas pestsof agriculture andforestry,” said Dagenais. “Batsalso cycle nutrients between aquaticenvironments where they eat and

uplandenvironments where they sleep and poop.

“Culturally, batsare also significant. Where would we be without characters like Batman, Dracula, and the Count from Sesame Street?”

Despite their importance, batsface serious threatsthat they are illprepared to withstand due to their low reproductive rates.

“Most BC speciesgive birth to only one pup per year,” said Dagenais

At this timeof year, batsare fattening upfor their winter hibernation, devouring many insects ever y night.

“As they migrate to their winter habitat, they may roost above your doorway orinunusual

openareas. Please allow the bat to stay; it will leave onits own in a few days,” she said.

A major threat tobats is White-nose Syndrome, a deadly fungal disease expected to spread to B.C. andis currently killing batsinAlbertaand Washington. The public can report dead batsor winter bat activity at : www.bcbats. ca, or call1-855-922-2287 ext. 11.

BC Community Bat Program is made possible thanks to funding from the Habitat Conser vation Trust Foundation, BC Conser vation Foundation, the BC government, and Environment& Climate Change Canada -Submitted

SeniorSun Devils grindout another football roadwin

S

ijacque s@ delta -o ptimis t. co m

The senior varsity South Delta Sun Devils managed to grind out another football road win– 14-6 over Carson Graham, on Oct. 17.

The win improves South Delta’s conference record to 3-1and6-2 overall.

South Delta has battled through injuriesthe past few weeks losing reigning MVP Damian Dumas inthe win over G.W.Grahamon Oct. 10andlosing Grade10quarterback Quinn Kirincic early inthe game against Carson Graham

Grade 9 quarterback Raemon Dosanjh stepped upandled the Sun

Devils to the win. Carson scored early in the game but failed on a two-point convert to lead6-0.

South Deltalooked out of sorts and neededa spark that came from Quinn

Sjoberg who came back on a slightly underthrown ball, making the catch andaccelerated away fromthe defender for a 60-yard TD The extra point madeit7-6 for South Delta.

Late inthe secondquarter, the Sun Devils had the balldeepin Carson territory

Dosanjh, on a beautiful roll out, hit Sjoberg just insidethe end zone for his secondTDofthe game

The second half wasa defensive battlewhere Carsonnever really threat-

ened againand South Delta withthe young QBdidn’ttake many chances andtried to pounditandplay field position.

The SunDevilsare back at homeon Saturday asthey entertain Notre Dame at 1:30 p.m. at Dennison Park.

Juniorvarsity

The junior varsity SunDevils improved their conference record to 2-0and overall record to 6-2 with a 19-7 win over Lord Tweedsmuiron Oct. 16.

This wasa sloppy win for the Sun Devilswhodidn’tplay their best game despite dominating in total yardage–320 to 125.

Kirincic scored on a 13-yard run

and a 10-yard run whilecompletinga 52-yard touchdown pass to Ty MacGregor.

South Delta absolutely dominated ondefenceinthe first half, smothering Tweedsmuir ’s very skilled team, however, it was only 13-0 at the halfdue to two fumblesinsidethe20-yard line. The second halfdidn’timprove much South Deltacontinued to move the ball well but penaltiesand somemore fumbles stalled out drives

“Lots toclean-up but there still wasa lotof really good thingsthathappened,” saidheadcoach Scott Martens.

“We can grow fromthisand work on ourfundamentalsas we start to prepare for theplayoffs.”
