And I think some good points were made. ” “The city has been accused of failing to enforce its 1986 order “that Samson's Poultry Farm . owner Stan Kinkead fill in and fence off a pond that sometimes forms in high water due to a dam on his property. The area had not-been completely filled ‘in, and was’ not fenced when Joey: Parsons: drowned in the pond this spring. . © The inquest jury urged the ci- ty to better define its jurisdic- tion over the creeks and ponds inside its boundaries. — Talstra and city administrator Bob Hailsor defended the city’s inaction, testifying at the Sept. ° 24 inquest that it was unclear whether the case was under city council’s control or that of the environment ministry. Although . the _ environment. ministry has ultimate authority over all watercourses, officials — say the ministry usually leaves - regulation of streams and ponds inside municipal boundaries to locai councils. “The city’s present position | Jack Talstra with respect to work on the pro- perty is that any ponding has been abated and the works in- stalled by Mr. Kinkead has drained any water ponding in the area previously,” Hallsor testified. He conceded the city did have the power to take steps to have the problem fixed before the . drowning this spring, but didn’t do so. He said the city viewed the problem as a‘ dispute bet- ween two property owners, and was trying to ‘work out a-com- promise rather than carrying a heavy stick,’’ Hallsor said the city also feared any move to unilaterally go in and fix the problem would set a future precedent for tax- payers’ money being. used -to solve other people’s problems. Talstra told the inquest he doubted the city could have taken action without the per- mission of the environment _upstream neighbours, _ CANADIAN AIRLINES SEAT SALE TO SCANDINAVIA A S778) 00 a VANCOUVER ALSO.” s kKakak LUFTHANSA WILL OFFER A SEAT SALE FROM Canada to Berlin to celebrate ihe start of their service to Berlin....5759.00 exit Vancouver keekx FUN SUN HAS CHRISTMAS SPACE 70 MEXICO depart December 22, from Vancouver return January 5 kkewkekr HAWAB SPECIAL DEPARTURES...

Council issued the 1986 order calling on Kinkead to fill in and fence off the pond after neighbour Ben Webber com- plained of flooding on his pro- perty. The issue did not come before council again until after this spring’s drowning — nearly three years after the deadline for completion of the work. Kinkead cited sewage con- tamination of the creek from and delays in getting authorization to enter Webber’s property as ° reasons for not complying with the order before the drowning. Kinkead has 10-inch plastic pipe, and-drain- ed the pond this summer. “‘It may create temporary ponding (during peak runoff), but it will never create a pond with ice on it again,” he said. installed a. 4 bining brilliant visuals’ an spectacular song- filled: score, this divine tale af-love.a nd: tion isa ‘wondrous, ‘h } inspiration for all age HOME.
