Sound advice for building downtown Dry weather

Aircraft noise
is audible
concern for a
growing city
by Matthew Hoekstra
Staff Reporter
If Doug Kennedy started a
band, he wouldn’t have to
look far for members. Many
acoustical engineers on his
team are musicians; Kennedy
plays saxophone. A music in-
terest is partly why he perked
up when a man loved and
loathed in Richmond offered
him a job.
Kennedy is president of BKL
Consultants Ltd., which pro-
vides a range of acoustical
design services for a grow-
ing number of development
projects in Richmond City
Centre.
From ensuring Olympic
speed skaters had blissful
quiet at the oval start line to
limiting aircraft noise inside
Aberdeen Residence, to get-
ting River Rock Show Theatre
concert-ready to measuring
the impact of Canada Line
construction, BKL has offered
sound advice to those build-
ing Richmond’s downtown.
It was 1970, and Kennedy
was a fresh, young mechani-
cal engineering graduate
from University of B.C.—a
faculty with a tradition of
hanging vehicles off bridg-
es. In his final year, he got
to know Tom Siddon, a UBC
professor who started an
acoustical firm with one of
Kennedy’s classmates.
Shortly after graduation,
they invited Kennedy to join
them. He did.
The trio managed a suc-
cessful office in Richmond,
but Siddon’s opinions were
getting stronger and he made
a leap into politics, serving

on Richmond council before
moving on to a long career in
federal politics.
“(Siddon) was very good
technically. As he became
more and more involved in
politics, he became less and
less involved in the acousti-
cal business. Obviously, he
had his strong opinions,”
said Kennedy, 63.
The firm carried on without
Siddon and later merged with
another in 1988, when BKL
was born.
Today, Richmond offers the
firm no shortage of work.
Much of City Centre is clas-
sified as a high noise area—
requiring developers to miti-
gate aircraft noise—and it’s
here where the city is con-
centrating its growth.
Experts warn that noise brings annoyance
and potential impacts to human health. In
high noise areas in Richmond, new housing
must be in the form of high-rise buildings
equipped with air conditioning, double- or
triple-glazed windows and covenants for
property owners.
BKL works with architects to
control outside noise, it aids
in the design of performance
spaces and measures the en-
vironmental impact of noise
from major transportation or
industrial projects.

adjacent to proposed resi-
dential developments—but
in Richmond, aircraft noise
is No. 1.
Vancouver International Air-
port is Canada’s second busi-
est airport, welcoming 16.2
million people in 2009 and
averaging over 700 takeoffs
and landings each day. All
that adds up to a lot of noise
for those living under a flight
path.

in Richmond, new housing
must be in the form of high-

ers. And before construction
starts, an acoustic study
must be completed.

culated, the acoustical engi-
neer calculates the interior

prompts trail
closures
Tinder-dry conditions has
prompted the city to close
portions of Richmond Nature
Park and Shell Road Trail until
further notice.
City staff posted notices
Thursday to mark the closure
of the interior trails and east
bog forest of the nature park
and the Shell Road Trail.
The move is aimed at pre-
venting a possible fire in the
dry conditions Richmond and
the rest of the region is expe-
riencing.
“We ask people to respect
those very sensitive areas —
they are very dry. For safety
reasons we want to keep
people out of there,” said
Ted Townsend, the city’s se-
nior manager for corporate
communications.
The Richmond Nature Park’s
nature house remains open
daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.,
and all summer programs will
continue, including a blue-
berry sale on Sunday from
11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The sale is a
fundraiser for the Richmond
Nature Park Society’s educa-
tional programs.
The city is also urging resi-
dents to avoid tossing ciga-
rettes and matches out of
car windows or off balconies,
and also operate barbecues
at a safe distance from flam-
mable materials.
No-smoking signs have
been posted in Terra Nova
Park, Garden City Park, Bath
Slough Trail, Horseshoe
Slough Trail, Paulik Gardens
Neighbourhood Parkand and
McDonald Beach, with more
postings possible.
Townsend noted there was
a small grass fire off the East-
West Connector earlier this
week when someone threw
a cigarette out of there car
window.
“It’s dry out there. A grass
fire can turn into a structure
fire.”

redeveloping
Middle Arm
dyke into a
greenway
by Matthew Hoekstra
Staff Reporter
More boats, more members
and a new clubhouse are all
part of the Richmond Yacht
Club’s vision for the future.
The club, founded in 1962,
unveiled its development
plan at city hall Tuesday.
“We need to increase our
membership; our member-
ship is very small. We have
approximately 160 mem-
bers,” said Robert Poburko,
vice-commodore of the club.
“As with every organiza-
tion, we’re all getting older,
and we’re really looking for
our new membership to
come out of Richmond-based
families.”
from Port Metro Vancouver.
Future plans call for more
floats, a new floating club-
house and removing the
club’s current building and
parking lot from the dyke.
Forty-seven boats are
moored at the marina today.
The expansion would add
room for up to 15 more boats
and allow larger vessels to
maneuver.
“There is a very great
shortage of mooring space
in the Lower Mainland,” said
Poburko.
The current clubhouse, at
7471 River Rd., was built in
1965 and moved to its cur-
rent location 10 years later,
followed by construction of
the marina. A new clubhouse
would be a smaller version of
the nearby John MS Lecky UBC
Boathouse building, and offer
more space to other users.
It could take a decade
before all the changes are
complete, said Poburko.
The plan ties in with a new
1.3-kilometre greenway and
park that stretches south-

targeted Empire
Centre mall
by Jessica Tieszen
Contributor
Police have arrested one of the
suspects accused of writing racist
graffiti at Empire Centre mall.
The arrest happened right by the
scene of the crime and came at
around the same time that police
held a press conference about the
case.
On Wednesday, at 3 p.m., Rich-
mond RCMP bike squad members
found the suspect during their pa-
trols of the Empire Centre parkade.
The 18-year-old male was arrested
as he tried to flee the parkade.
Police are still looking for another
suspect in the July 21st incident.
The vandalism was reported to the
Richmond RCMP on July 22; the se-
curity camera filmed the incident the
previous night. The graffiti consisted
of derogatory comments targeting
people of Chinese origin and police
themselves as well as swastikas and
offensive drawings.
“We want the community to realize
the significance of crime like this,”
Richmond RCMP Cpl. Sherrdean Tur-
ley said.
“It is not something these suspects
will get away with. Their actions
were hurtful and disrespectful.
“Graffiti would typically warrant
a charge of mischief, however the
racism in the writing could raise the
incident to a hate crime. If so, the
investigation will be looked at ac-
cordingly.”
Paul Kung, the centre’s security
manager, blames four men and a
women all who were captured on
surveillance cameras. Two of these
men returned the next day to smash
security cameras and leave more of-
fensive messages, he says.
“We won’t pay to remove the van-
dalism yet because they are drawing
new graffiti almost everyday,” says
Kung.
“Police are used to being the tar-
get of negative comments, but when
the comments are aimed at commu-
nity members based on their ethic
origin, that’s simply not going to be
tolerated,” Turley said.
The male was released from cus-
tody and will face his first court
appearance on Sept. 14. A charge
of mischief has been forwarded to
Crown.
Richmond RCMP say the graffiti
found recently is an isolated inci-
dent involving a single group of in-
dividuals that are known to police.
The investigation is continuing with
efforts focused on identifying the
other suspects involved.
Police wouldn’t release the se-
curity footage stills to the press,
but they helped RCMP identify the
suspect. The website www.chinese-
invancouver.ca has several stills of
the suspect and crime scene.
“What’s very unfortunate in this
case is that the photos that were re-
leased to the media without police

knowledge has hindered our ability
to locate independent witnesses
which would have been very ben-
eficial to this investigation,” Turley
says. “We strongly discourage the
public from disclosing any mate-
rial without consultation with the
police.”
“I am pleased the Richmond RCMP
has proceeded quickly to apprehend
one of the suspects in this disgrace-
ful act of vandalism,” says Richmond
Mayor Malcolm Brodie.
“The messages contained in the
vandalism are hurtful and dis-
respectful to all members of the
community. It goes against our
community values of respecting all
individuals equally.”
Anyone with information regarding
the incident is asked to contact Rich-
mond RCMP at 604-278-8477, or if

dent, and it’s unclear
if police are investigat-

“If it’s not possible to achieve the

the area of the windows.”

Stupid act

for society
A
stupid stunt by a few young punks cap-
tured an incredible amount of attention
this week. But reading into the story
anymore for what it is would give these crimi-
nals credence.
It started when Richmond RCMP issued a press
release about vandals whose crude graffiti in a
parkade at Empire Centre mall attacked the Chinese
community.
The story erupted and people started to question
why. As the media hounded a police spokesperson for
answers, RCMP held a press conference. But police
had little to share, refusing to release surveillance
video images of the suspects, which had already been
circulating in some media circles.
More questions. Who would have so much hate in
their heart? Is this just an example of the hate in the
wider community? And why the press conference?
Then we learn of police arresting the lead suspect,
that afternoon. Apparently the genius was nabbed
right by the scene of the crime.
Questions remained—what would drive someone to
do this? How many racists are among us?
The graffiti was indeed racist and hurtful. But before
immigrants of different origin—who we all are—start

crime for what it is. Stupid.

was not being able to be there to share in their

Canada proves its D is world class

But point production still a concern heading to World Basketball Championships
by Don Fennell
Sports Editor
Alison McNeill suggested Thursday that Canada’s national
women’s basketball team sports a “world-class” defence.
It’s hard to argue with the head coach’s assessment after
Canada’s 66-39 victory over Sweden Thursday at the Rich-
mond Olympic Oval. The win capped a four-game exhibition
series in which Canada held the Swedish and Chilean national
teams to an average of 41 points.
But the question remains. Where are the points for going to
come from? During the four-game set, Canada averaged 74.5
points but gave away the ball far too frequently. At times, their
confidence also seemed fragile which they can’t afford at the
World Basketball Championships which tip off Sept. 23 in the
Czech Republic.
Ranked No. 12 in the world rankings, Canada is grouped in
what many feel is the toughest pool at the tournament with
the likes of No. 2-ranked Australia, No. 4 China and No. 6 Be-
larus.
“We can’t afford to miss any easy shots (like Thursday
against Sweden),” said McNeill, who added mental tough-
ness will be vital if Canada is to have any kind of success at
the worlds.
Kim Smith of Mission, who led Canada with 21 points and
is routinely the team’s top scorer (Jordan Adams and Natlie
Achonwa were next highest with seven points each), said the
four-game exhibition series was a good gauge to see where
the team is at.
“I think from our first game against Chile to our last against
Sweden we’re much better,” she said, noting the players don’t
have a lot of time to jell.
“This has absolutely helped us prepare for the worlds,” said

Richmond Hospital Foundation was presented with a $5,000 cheque from BMO
Bank of Montreal. This donation will go toward Richmond Hospital’s Emergen-
cy Pediatric Resuscitation Room. It will help to fund the purchase of urgently
needed advanced medical equipment including defibrillator with child-sized
paddles, an extra-sensitive monitor that can track the oxygen in a child’s blood-
stream, and other vital life-saving equipment that are designed especially for
kids.
Cadet Shanie Yin of Richmond received the award as the top cadet in 14 Platoon
of the first intake of general military training at Vernon Army Cadet Summer
Training Centre. Presenting the award is Vernon Fire Chief Jeff Carlisle. Cadet
Yim is a member of 2381 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps in Richmond. Yim
and 142 other army cadets attended the Army Cadet General Military Training
Course which sees the cadets introduced to communal living, participate in an
overnight basic trades field exercise and other training.
