More famine than feast for food vendors

City should ‘catch up’
to Vancouver, says
operator of three
mobile food trucks

A mobile food truck operator says it’s time
Richmond rethink a decades-old bylaw that
prevents vendors from selling meals on city
streets and parks.
“This concept is so new for the City of Rich-
mond, that these bylaws that were put in
place in the ‘70s still apply,” said Ken Ogata.
“I think we need to catch up.”
Ogata, 32, operates a trio of trucks serv-
ing Japanese cuisine from a parking lot
across from the Bridgeport Canada Line Sta-
tion. What started as Tenku Bakudanyaki, a
single truck serving grilled seafood fritters
at a different location, has grown into three
vehicles—the others serving sushi cones and
cold noodles.
There’s been plenty of street food buzz in
Vancouver, where the city recently awarded
17 licences to mobile vendors. The pilot proj-
ect, which aims to expand roadside diets from
hotdogs, popcorn and chestnuts, received
800 applications.

Rob Sleath is hoping to convince the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal that Richmond’s crosswalks aren’t acces-
sible for the visually impaired.
Blind man claims discrimination
over lack of audio technology
at city’s crosswalks
Advocate
brings case
before B.C.
Human Rights
Tribunal
by Matthew Hoekstra
Staff Reporter
Richmond’s crosswalks dis-
criminate against the visu-
ally impaired, according to a
blind Richmond man who has
launched a complaint with the
B.C. Human Rights Tribunal.
Rob Sleath, 55, is seeking
an order compelling the City
of Richmond to install audio
equipment at intersections that
would deliver information to
visually impaired pedestrians.
Sleath, a longtime Richmond
resident who lost his vision
in 1992, told The Richmond
Review he’s negotiated with the
city for a decade. Talks came
to a head when he learned
Richmond installed dozens of
special crosswalks—crossings
with pedestrian-activated
flashing yellow lights—without
technology to aid the visually
impaired.
Such crosswalks should deliv-
er an audio message to pedes-
trians other than “chirps” and
“cuckoos,” which are reserved
for controlled intersections.
“In our mind it was a per-
fect solution to a challenging
problem, but for some rea-
son, the city didn’t want to
go along with it,” said Sleath,
who is also chair of the advo-
cacy group Access for Sight-
Impaired Consumers.
Sleath also wants the city to
install audio technology at con-
trolled intersections that would
announce the street name at a
push of a button.
file photo
“Any sighted pedestrian
has the ability to look up at a
street corner and identify the
intersection that they’re at. A
person who is blind or visu-
ally impaired in the City of
Richmond has no opportunity
to do that.”
Simply adding tactile letter-
ing and braille doesn’t help all
visually impaired pedestrians,
he said.
Sleath’s case is scheduled to
appear before the quasi-judi-
cial body Aug. 23. The hearing
is scheduled for five days.
City of Richmond spokesper-
son Ted Townsend wouldn’t
discuss the specific claim prior
to the hearing but said the city
takes accessibility issues “very
seriously.”
“We have an international
reputation for being a very
accessibly city. Particularly, we
have programs in place deal-
ing with pedestrian access for
the disabled, including visually
impaired.”

Metro OKs
burning trash
Board leaves
location
options open
by Kevin Diakiw
Black Press
Burning garbage has been OK’d
by Metro Vancouver.
Regional directors voted Friday
to adopt a draft waste plan that
includes incineration, within or out-
side the Vancouver area.
Incineration has been a bone of
contention for Fraser Valley resi-
dents and politicians who say it will
damage the sensitive airshed.
Metro chair and Delta Mayor Lois
Jackson said the plan was “collabo-
ration of many many years work.
Not only people from around this
table, but also from the past, are
going to be interested in how we
deal with this today.”
Abbotsford Coun. Patricia Ross
said after the meeting she was dis-
heartened.
“This is SE2 all over again,” she
said. “This (decision) just leaves us
hanging.”
Her best hope was Vancouver
which was opposed the idea of
incineration altogether.
Vancouver’s Heather Deal attempt-
ed to have incineration removed
from the possible treatments of
wasteand offered an amendment
that the definition of waste to ener-
gy include all conversion methods
including gasification, but exclud-
ing incineration and landfilling.
“We don’t believe in adding more
landfills,” Deal said.
Richmond’s Harold Steves agreed,
saying there’s no need for an incin-
erator at this point.
“Get the mass burn off the table,
we’ll have alternatives within 18
months,” Steves said.
Port Coquitlam’s Greg Moore said
the conversion technology is “not
there yet” as the region needs to
dispose of about a million tonnes
of waste annually.
Deal said if mass incineration
remains a possibility, emerging
companies with strong technology
won’t bother bringing forward their
concepts.
Surrey’s Coun. Marvin Hunt said
some directors were “prejudging
the process” by hoping to take
incinerators off the table. He wants
to see mass burn fail as an option,
he said, but wants to see the alter-
natives.
The board voted against restrict-
ing the definition of waste to ener-
gy, leaving incinerators and landfills
still on the table.
The discussion proceeded to
whether a mass burn incinerator
would be in or out of the region.
Directors in favour of shipping out
of region say they were being sensi-
tive to the Fraser Valley air shed.
Port Moody’s Mayor Joe Trasolini
said if the board was just going
to be relying on science, why
bother with the exhaustive public
consultation. He said the board is
required to take into account the
public input, much of which was
against in-region incineration.
Others felt it was a more pragmat-
ic approach as the region moves
forward.
“If you rule out in-region, you may
rule out something that is supe-
rior,” said Coquitlam Mayor Richard
Stewart.
Vancouver’s Tim Stevenson said
he couldn’t fathom that the region
was considering shipping its gar-
bage to someone else.
“If we have doubts about it, maybe
we want to ship it to Vancouver
Island,” Stevenson said. “Happy
Birthday to them.”
Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said
there’s a huge host of emerging
technologies available that out-of-
region communities might want to
host.
She also noted the Fraser Valley
is vehemently opposed to such a
facility.
“We have to respect their views as
well,” Watts said, adding she would
approve of an out of region facil-
ity. “I think it’s the most balanced
approach.”
After rejecting three options pro-
vided by regional staff, the board
chose to allow incinerators either
in or out of the region based on a
request for proposal process and
judged by an independent party.
Leading up to the vote, Metro was
informed of the results of an exten-
sive public process, which provided
three main preferences for waste
disposal.
They included:
1. Continue with zero-waste tar-
gets. If enough effort goes into it,
those target can be obtained, some
people felt.
2. Continue landfilling, which was
primarily borne out of opposition to
incineration.
3. Waste to energy, which includes
incineration, is necessary.
Metro CAO Johnny Carline said the
first is nearly unattainable under
current conditions.
People who were in favour of the
second were primarily concerned
about the health considerations
with incineration, he said, noting
people were also worried about
increasing greenhouse gases.
“Health risks are not considered
a concern by virtually all the health
authorities in Canada, U.S. and
U.K.,” Carline said. “And the effect
on air quality is “indiscernible.”
In addition to the waste to energy
decision, the board also adopted
the rest of the draft plan, which
included several waste reduction
initiatives.
Because of strong public reaction
to decrease the amount of gar-
bage going to landfills, Metro staff
are recommending an 80 per cent
diversion by 2020. Previously, the
goal had been a 70 per cent diver-
sion by 2015.
The notion got strong support
from the board.

opinion
Time has come for
street food
T
he streets of New York are known for
chestnuts, Philadelphia for cheesesteaks
and Quebec for poutine.
Richmond’s public spaces are known for, well, not
much of anything.
That’s because mobile food vendors must be continu-
ally moving on city streets and property. Stops are
only permitted to make a sale. That’s OK for Cal the
Ice Cream Man but impossible for anyone pushing a
hot dog cart or driving a mobile food truck selling fried
seafood dumplings.
Vancouver already boasts plenty of vendors selling
hot dogs, popcorn, ice cream and chestnuts, but its
move to the 21st century by allowing gourmet food
vendors onto city streets on a trial basis has revealed
just how antiquated the City of Richmond’s business
bylaw is.
Richmond is a fast growing city—modernizing as lots
come available and are redeveloped—and an Olympic
one at that. A changing City Centre is making the
streets more friendly for pedestrians. The Canada Line
is encouraging walking, as are plazas, parks and green-
ways that are popping up around the city.
It’s time the city examines its stuffy bylaw for mobile
vendors to add another link to this chain. Mobile food
vendors have the potential to give the city something
unique by adding to its cultural life and offering anoth-
er attraction to those on foot. It could even be a way
for our city to showcase locally-grown products.
Imagine corn-on-the-cob at Garry Point, noodles at
Richmond-Brighouse Station, kebabs on the Richmond
Olympic Oval plaza or even blueberry juice outside city
hall.
Certainly, carte blanche can’t be granted to mobile

Youth are putting in some

food vendors. Established restaurants and eateries
have much invested in their locations and anyone who
knows Richmond streets knows the importance of
smooth flowing traffic—both vehicle and pedestrian.
Strict health regulations should also be met by any
would-be vendor.
But certainly Richmond has room for street vendors.
Any bylaw made decades ago is worth re-examining in
a growing city. In this case, that review is long overdue.

How did we get them to

it had to do with inviting
them. We put a special

seems to have resonated
with quite a few of them.
Perhaps it is learning a new

it’s participating in a social

Whatever the reason, I’m
truly grateful that the call
was taken up.

Tearing down trees and houses does
not make the city look better
Editor:
Re: “Development improves
city,” Letters, Saturday.
Ms. Louie is becoming more
happy and proud to live in
Richmond as she sees more homes
torn down and replaced by monster
houses, townhouses and high-ris-
es. She even uses the derogatory
expression “tear downs.”
Actually, probably most of the
houses being replaced are only
being sold because of pressure
and a good enough price, not
because they need to be torn
down. I think it’s very sad to see
so much still useful housing falling
to the wrecking ball.
Indeed, property values are
being increased. It is mainly
16+yrs because of immigrants with money
moving in. People who grew up
here can’t afford to live here. The
result is that the people who work
to serve us here and the children
of the people who live here can-
not afford to live here, unless they
live with their parents. That is not
something that every culture finds
desirable.
I don’t think that the people that
are being forced to move to the
suburbs and even other provinces
where the prices are lower are
benefiting or feeling proud about
Richmond. They would probably
like to live here, where they grew
up, where the climate is more
desirable, but can’t afford to.
I do not at all agree that this
makes the city and subdivisions
look better. It upsets me greatly
to see all the wonderful trees and
vegetation being torn down. Do
these builders and developers not
know that grass, flowers, shrubs
and especially trees purify our air,
moisturize it and cool our atmo-
sphere? They replace wonderful
shade trees with trees that they
continue to terribly amputate
the limbs of so that they don’t
grow big enough to drop too
many leaves in the fall to mess
up those lovely paved courtyards,
and don’t provide shade during
the warm days of summer. They
would rather not deal with any liv-
ing growth, but just pave or stone
their front yards, create more heat,
incorporate more air conditioning
and blow more heat into the atmo-
sphere.
All of this growth is not improv-
ing the quality of this island or
making this the best place in the
world to live at all. Soon, our valu-
able green space and farmland
will be replaced by these develop-
ments and then we will have to
pay even more to ship food from
even farther while the air gets
dirtier and hotter. What a shame.

Editor:
I received a debt notice of $80 from Imperial Parking
for contravention of the posted parking instructions.
The location is the driveway between the back (south
side) of Richmond Public Market and the adjacent
small park.
I did not receive any notice at the spot but upon my
subsequent request received a picture showing I was
at the driver seat (waiting to pick up my wife after her
shopping at the public market). The sign at the loca-
tion clearly indicates “No Parking” but no wording
stating “no stopping or no waiting.” My understand-
ing of the general rules under traffic regulations, driv-
ers can stop and wait to load or unload passengers at
the “No Parking” zone. I disputed the “fine,” but the
decision was final.
Richmond Public Market is a very popular and busy
spot in our community. The parking lot is always full
at busy hours. The driveway in question is an ideal
location for loading and unloading shoppers so as to
easy the traffic jam at the multi-storey parking lot.

cians don’t quit even if their bodies
try to. Gaye Delorme plays Britannia Heritage Shipyard Friday.
A surgery several years ago took away Gaye
Delorme’s vision in one eye, while diabetes
reduced his eyesight in the other, leaving him
legally blind.
But the true vision of the guitarist and singer-
songwriter hasn’t faltered.
He’s writing songs for another CD—his seventh—
which he hopes to start recording this fall.
“I’m really wanting to get in the studio and get
going on the new CD,” says Delorme, 63, who plays
Richmond Friday. “It will have lots of horns and a
bit of rhythm and blues.”
Delorme grew up in Edmonton and got started in
music in the ’60s, teaching himself the art of the
guitar as a teenager in a boys’ home.
It wasn’t until three decades into a performing
career that he learned to read music, according to
one biography.

Steveston Museum showcases new art
and old crafts
Emerging artists inspired by dreams, opinions and mind-
scapes as well as the work of traditional crafts people demon-
strating hundreds of years of artisan knowledge is on show in
the Steveston Museum park on Saturday, Aug. 7 starting at 11
a.m.
“We are excited to be able to show the work of three emerg-
ing artists from the region,” says Gabrielle Sharp, Steveston
Museum’s co-ordinator, “and two of the artists, Emily Chou and
Jory Wong, plan on doing a performance art piece together to
demonstrate how they create a work. This will contrast with the
centuries old techniques being displayed by craft groups from
across Richmond.”
The crafts on display include weaving, spinning, quilting,
carving and jewellery making. Local folk groups, Dandelion
Wine and Ratz Café Band, will be providing music from 12:30 to
3 p.m. Bring a picnic lunch to share and a blanket to sit upon
and enjoy a few hours of exceptional entertainment weather
permitting.
There is a serious side to this Saturday’s music series as well.
Gabrielle explains, “as well as giving exposure to new artists,
these craft groups create gorgeous pieces that draw on historic
traditions. But many of these craft groups need more members
to join in order to survive. Richmond’s creativity and history
would be much poorer if we lost these groups.”
This is the perfect opportunity for people to come and enjoy
great music, talk to young artists and skilled craftspeople and
perhaps buy work from an emerging artist or discover a fasci-
nating new hobby.
Fraser Union plays the cannery
Fraser Union, a British Columbia folk music singing trio at its
best, is playing Gulf of Georgia Cannery on Friday night.
The concert is a presentation of the Steveston Folk Guild,
the Beatmerchant Record Store, and Gulf of Georgia Cannery
Society.
Show begins at 6:30 p.m. on cannery grounds—or inside if it
rains. Admission is by donation. The cannery is located at 12138
Fourth Ave.
Future 6:30 p.m. concerts include:
•Aug. 6: Fraser Union—British Columbia folk music singing
trio at its best.
•Aug. 13: Midnight Lightning—a Jimi Hendrix tribute band.
•Aug. 20: Sumner Brothers—country folk roots duo.
•Aug. 27: Paul O’Brien—singer/songwriter performs songs of
love and injustice.
•Sept. 3: Blue Train—local favourites playing electric blues
with a dance beat edge.

Kallner at home on the soccer pitch
Local teen hopes to follow footsteps of fellow Richmondite Sari Raber
by Don Fennell
Sports Editor
E
mma Kallner has
always been an active
kid.
At the tender age of two her
parents snapped a photo of her
dunking a basketball. By her
fourth birthday, she was showing
even more of her natural athletic
talent on the soccer field.
After helping Team B.C. to a
second-place finish at the recent
BMO national Nutrilite All-Stars
under-14 girls’ championship,
Kallner, who captained the B.C.
under-13 team last year, is even
more determined to one day play
for Canada’s national team.
“I think I’m a lot more fit than
two seasons ago and my con-
fidence has been raised a lot
more,” says the energetic Rich-
mond teen. “I realize I can take
the ball down the field more often
and I feel my shot has improved
and I’ve become a better team-
mate. But there are a lot of good
players in Canada and it’s going
to be a lot of hard work to make
the national level.”
Kallner has never feared hard
work. And she need only to look
at her role model and soccer idol
Sari Raber for inspiration.
Also a Richmond resident,
Raber parlayed her promise as a
local youth player into a college
scholarship at the University of
Nebraska where she was a star
on the field and in the classroom.
She played the last three sum-
mers for the Ottawa Fury of the
W-League and has spent the past
six months with the Canadian
Dunfee Canada’s race walk champion
by Don Fennell
Sports Editor
Evan Dunfee is the Canadian men’s
race walk champion for 2010.
A Richmond resident, University
of B.C. student and member of the
Richmond Kajaks, Dunfee won the
national title last weekend in Toron-
to. He completed the 20,000-metre
course in 1:25.57—an improvement
of one minute, 40 seconds over his
previous best to make the Cana-
dian standard by four seconds and
qualify for the 2010 Commonwealth
Games Oct. 3-14 in Delhi, India.
Former Kajak and Olympian Diane
Cummins, who is currently not af-
filiated with any track club, won the
women’s 800 metres in 2:02.06.
•At the World Junior Track and
Field Championships last week in
Moncton, N.B., Kajak Katie Reid was
fifth in the women’s 400 metres in
53.80 seconds. She set a meet re-

national team. But beginning next
month, soccer will take a back
seat to education after she was
accepted into the University of
B.C. Faculty of Medicine.
Raber will continue to coach
though, returning to help out with
Delta’s under-15 girls’ squad,0
which this year will also feature
midfielder Kallner. Raber coached
Kallner when she first began play-
ing organized soccer in Richmond
and remembers having to find
new tricks “to keep her still for
five minutes” when she was little.
“She’s a fantastic kid and a
great soccer player,” says Raber.
“The biggest thing for Emma, and
a lot of players that stay in the
game and find success, is to have
fun. It makes it way easier to take
the downs as well as enjoy the
ups.”
Kallner, who also played last
winter at the national training
centre, sees in Raber the play-
er—and person—she wants to
become.
“Sari has known me my whole
life and our families are close
friends,” she explains. “Sari is
always the hardest worker at
everything she does and it’s prob-
ably her personality that I admire
most. She can take anything and
turn into a positive. And she’s
always there for you.”
Kallner and Raber have both
volunteered for Soccer Without
Borders since last year. The goal
of the non-profit organization
based in San Francisco is to use
soccer to create positive change
in the lives of disadvantaged
youth throughout the world.

Volleyball Centre of Excellence selects Ross as head coach
Joanne Ross was Tuesday
named the head coach of
the Volleyball Centre of
Excellence at the Richmond
Olympic Oval.
A University of B.C. gradu-
ate, athlete and coach, Ross
has 10 years of coaching
experience—from high
performance club volleyball
through to the Canadan
national team program. Her
background will serve the
centre’s vision of full inte-
gration of long term athlete
development.
Having played (1996-2002)
and coached (2009) with
Team Canada, her under-
standing of high perfor-
mance and the commitment
necessary to achieve suc-
cess at all levels will ensure
each athlete reaches their
potential. The centre’s focus
on athlete and coach devel-
opment will be served not
only by Ross’ expertise but
supported by national and
international coaches and
athletes, as well as sport
services through special-
ized programs and coaching
education.
While playing at UBC, Ross
was named Academic All-
Canadian as well as female
athlete of the year. As a role
model for all athletes, her
passion for the sport has
transferred into coaching
and the development of
athletes.
“I had the opportunity to
sit on the LTAD Committee to
represent the athletes’ view
on how to integrate long
term athlete development
into the Canadian volleyball
system,” said Ross. “Sit-
ting on the committee with
Canada’s finest national and
international coaches was
an incredible experience and
we examined what Canada
needs to do to be success-
ful internationally. I am so
excited at the opportunity to
develop that program at the

FAMILY ANNOUNCEMENTS
7 OBITUARIES
.
BUCH, Veronica
Our much loved Mom, Grand-
ma & Great-Grandma, Veroni-
ca passed away on July 28,
2010 at the age of 92. Veroni-
ca was born in the village of
Borowa, Poland and arrived in
Richmond in 1939 to marry Jo-
seph Buch. Together they
farmed for over 20 years rais-
ing chickens and dairy cows;
grew strawberries, raspber-
ries, and potatoes which they
sold at their roadside stand on
No. 3 Road. Veronica had a
full life, being very active in the
Polish community in Vancou-
ver where she spent many
years acting as Secre-
tary/Treasurer for the associa-
tion. Veronica loved to cook,
and began her catering busi-
ness in 1963 which continued
for 20 years. She catered for
countless weddings and ban-
quets. Family and friends
would rarely leave her home
without a dish of cabbage rolls
or perogies. She also loved to
attend the dances held at the
Polish Hall on Saturday nights
and seldom missed one.
Veronica did beautiful needle-
point, petit point, cross stitch
and hardanger which won her
several first prize awards at
the PNE. She made countless
treasured pieces for family and
friends and just about every-
one who knew her has a hand-
made knitted afghan. She had
a true love of gardening and
always took any opportunity to
be out in the garden admiring
her flowers. She never missed
her weekly Bingo games in
Richmond and spent many
non-stop hours playing cards
with her friends. Veronica al-
ways put her family’s needs
ahead of her own while endur-
ing the loss of two of her chil-
dren. Her husband Joseph
died in 1982, her son Edward
died in 1984 and her oldest
daughter Helen died in 2008.
Veronica was the cornerstone
of her family and has left an
enormous gap that will never
be filled. She was everyone’s
‘Grandma’. Missing her al-
ready is her daughter Irene,
grandchildren Dan, Dean,
Cherece (Rene), Brandon
(Mary), Chad (Colleen), son-
in-law Don, great-grandchil-
dren Landyn, Summer, Pierse,
Hannah, Sofia, Kyle & her be-
loved dog Pico. At Veronica’s
request the family will hold a
private memorial service.

“BUGS” NEEDS A GOOD HOME WITH YOU!
“Bugs” #189979, young adult, NM, Rex cross rabbit
Bugs is very social and friendly; he craves attention.
He’s even friendly with the many dogs and cats that
pass through the shelter. If you give him blueberries,
he’ll reward you with kisses! Bugs has lots of love to
give and is hoping you might be his forever home?
