HE DOESN'T WANT CONTROLS

HANDS OFF SATURNA1hands off Saturna!One-man army is defending

Saturna against the encroach-ment of Victoria or Salt SpringIsland. Jim Money, merchant,landowner and farmer of Saturnahas gained the approval of themunicipal affairs minister for apetition against membership ofthe Capital Regional District.

"If we can get 60% of island-ers to sign a petition for seces-sion," he told DRIFTWOOD,"Then the government will lookcloser at Saturna and the region-al district."

Saturna can run its own affairswithout intrusion from Victoria,said Mr. Money. And if SaltSpring Island wants planning, letthernhave it, but don't foist iton Saturna, he warned.

"We've sot enough troublesalready without getting involvedin the regional district," said thechampion of independence. "Weneed a permit for this a nd a per-mit for that and all the timewe've got more pollution herethan we can stop."

Mr. Money explained that hehas property on the east side ofSaturna. The current flowingfrom tue mainland regularlybrings filth and refuse to hisbeach (rom the mainland com-munities who discharge raw, un-treated sewage into the sea, hecomplained.

"I*ve watched the mess float-ing into the beach," he recalled,"iVe found plastic bags of excre-ment and there are hundreds ofcontraceptives floating about onthe beach."

Saturna is suffering from main-Land lack of control, but a Sat-urna Islander has to have a lic-ence to install a septic tank. Itdoesn't make sense, he protested.

"We can plan our island and wecan have our own zoning withoutsetting involved in permits forthis and that," he charged.

Saturna is the easternmost ofthe Gulf group.

SPEEDING COMPLAINTSThere has been a rash of

complaints about speeding onSalt Spring Island and particul-arly on newly paved areas ofroad, reports Ganges detach-ment, RCMP.

No further warnings will beissued and action will be takenagainst speeders in future, stat-ed Cpl. Vern Mayer, in charge.

SATURNA BARBECUE

A DIET OF LAMBThey came from near and far.From Saturna, even, to Satur-

It was the annual Saturna LambBarbecue on the beach of JimCampbell's property.

ISLANDERS MEET DOWN UNDERAustralia is a long way off.It is not so far that Salt Spring

Islanders can't get there.And here's the tale from Frank

Clarke in his own words:

Salt Spring Islanders might be

«tereste'd in this 'chance-m-a-illion* meeting and future asso-

ciation of two Fernwood Fellowsover 8,000 miles from home.

Well, it was like this, folks,I have my summer home on

Walker Hook Road, just south ofFernwood and have spent manyhappy summers, Easter weeksand odd week ends there, enjoy-ing the peace and quiet and love-liness of the Island and fishingthe waters around Wallace Islandand Porlier and Active Pass.

Last fall we decided to sell ourhome in Vancouver and move,as a family, down under to Aus-tralia.

Our children, Gordon, 16, Li-onel, 15, Hazel, 14, and David,12, could complete their HighSchool education and also beclose to their two aunts and sev-en cousins; my wife, Betty wouldbe close to her sisters and wecould spend some time seeingmore of this very interesting wideworld we live in. So here we

are living in an older type homewe have bought close to Sydneyin Australia; I took a job withone of the leading G.M. HoldenDealerships in Sydney in mynormal line of work as a motormechanic.

The recipe was simple:Take 12 good-sized tender

lambs. Cook them in the openover a slow fire. Add sauces.

And it's just that easy.

Not for the people of Saturna,though. There were about 40 ofthem setting the stage on Tues-day for the Wednesday feasting.

By noon the beach was filledwith the colorful small vessels ofvisitors. The field was swarm-ing with people, most laughingand eating. It was the lamb bar-becue.

Letter to The QueenResort operators on Salt Spring Island have expressed grati-

tude for governmental interest in planning the island commu-nity.

Following protest of the first island zoning by-law, operat-ors have written to Premier Bennett thanking him for hiscourtesy and assistance and to Deputy Municipal Affairs Mini-ster Robert Baird for his assistance.

They have also written to Queen Elizabeth expressing theirappreciation to her Prime Minister in British Columbia for hisintervention on their behalf.

Expressions appeared over the signatures of Reg Taylor, J.R. Nickerson and Bill Sawyer.

TWO ONE-CAR CRASHESAT SAME CURVE ONSALT SPRING ROAD

Two one-car crashes have oc-curred in a week at RockcrusherCorner on Fulford-Ganges Road.

On June 30 car driven by Del-mar Torgalson went out of con-trol on the corner and sustaineddamage. Driver was unhurt.

On July 5 Michael Valcourtfailed to negotiate the curveand was taken to Lady MintoGulf Islands Hospital.

In an accident on July 4 twocars were damaged" when the ve-hicle driven by Ron Cudmorewas in collision with that drivenby Muriel Greenhough. Cud-more has been charged with dri-ving without due care and atten-tion.

MEETING REVIEWS POSTlie endorsation for the secondtime on Monday evening inGanges. At the same meeting,planning committee chairmanHenry Schubart submitted hisresignation.

On Monday about 200 island-ers attended the regular meet-ing of the planning committee.It was held in the gymnasiumat the high school to accommo-date the expected crowd.

Mr. Schubart opened themeeting with his prepared state-ment.

He explained that he had tak-en the office of chairman on atemporary basis after AdrianWolfe-Milner was invited toserve on the Advisory PlanningCommission.

"After the events of the lastfew weeks, I am now sure thatthis is the proper time for meto resign and for the committeeto elect a new chairman," hetold the meeting.

He added that he was not re-signing as a "retreat from themany rumors and abuse of thelast two weeks, none of whichneed be denied or dealt with indetail."

Some opponents of the recent-ly rejected planning by-lawhave been vicious towards theplanning committee and partic-ularly towards its chairman.

"I am resigning because diff-erences of opinion centre aroundme as a person, my nationality,my purported conflicts-of-int-erest, my motives, rather thancentring around the importantplanning issues facing the island."

In resigning Mr. Schubartsummarized planning on the is-land.

"What we have experiencedin the last few weeks has beenexposure of different points ofview," recalled the planner."These different points of vieware very vital because they con-cern the philosophy of the isl-and's development*"

SIGNS ARE IN AGAINNo signs on the highway, Salt

Spring Island Chamber of Com-merce was warned recently bythe department of highways.

No signs on the highway, thechamber obediently repeatedand passed the message on toits members.

Spencer Marr, operator ofCusheon Lake Resort, wanted asign on the highway.

f!c signs on the highway,saidthe department.

Spencer Marr wanted moreinformation. He pursued thematter. In possession of theprovincial Motor Vehicle Act,he learned that signs are perm-itted on the highway. The actsays so. Not just little signs,like the highways departmentused to approve, but big oneslike they have in mainland co-mmunities.

So Mr. Marr has informed thechamber that there will be signson the highway.

Signs on the highway, thechamber tells the departmentof highways.

And that's where it stands.

IT IS A LOSS

This week brought the resignation of Mr. HenrySchubart from the planning committee on Salt SpringIsland. It also brought a strong plea for his reconsid-eration. If he persists in his resignation it will be ablow to the island.

The extent of the loss was evidenced on Mondayevening when an overwhelming majority of residentssupported the plea of Mr. Robert Holloman to refuseto accept the resignation.

Any decent thinking islander, and we assume thatthere must be one or two left, must be revolted by thecharacter of recent criticisms of the planning commi-ttee and its chairman. Under any other circumstancesthe extent of public credulity would be laughable.Thewhispering campaign has included imputations of dis-honesty and worse.

When a Salt Spring Islander sees a dog chasing awoodland deer, he rarely stops to admire the yelpingcur; commending his grace, his drool, his invectiveand his yellow teeth. The islander comes to championthe deer for his graceful avoidance of the foul teethand his quiet efforts to avoid being wounded or poison-ed by the offence of his attacker.

Nor does he assume the woods will be a cleanerplace for the loss of the deer and the advent of a mag-nificent mangy cur.

Salt Spring Island will suffer from this campaign.Planning will miss the help and authority of Mr. Schu-bart.

There may be those among the pack of hounds whofeel confident that they can fill the chairman's shoes.

Spare us the stench !

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR

ISLAND PLANNING(This letter was delayed inad-vertently at DRIFTWOOD).

Editor, Driftwood,After attending the communi-

ty meeting last Monday night inFulford Hall, I find a lot ofthoughts running through m yhead.

I felt that some sort of const-ructive ideas were needed ratherthan the bunch of criticism thatflew around. So here are someof my thoughts, for what helpthey may be to those really int-erested in community planning.

It seems to me that growthshould be restricted in some ma-nner, but zoning doesn't seemto be the answer. It was statedin the DRIFTWOOD last week,concerning future planning, that"Residents of all the Gulf Islandshave made it very clear thatpreservation of the Islands' uni-que environment should be giventhe highest possible priority."

I am in total agreement. Tomy way of thinking, much ofthe unique environment here isdue to the fact that the residen-tial, commercial, recreational,and agricultural areas are notdistinct and separate, but allmixed together and compatible

with one another.People seem to think that

growth cannot continue uncheck-ed in this manner, or else, aswas mentioned at the meeting,we're apt to have a big noisy,dirty factory right next door toa resort. I agree that these twowould not be compatible.

However, to a certain extent,the growth could continue tomix the elements. It has beendone, very successfully, in San-ta Barbara, California. As far aszoning and planning details forthat city are concerned, I mustplead ignorance.

However, I can tell you thatSanta Barbara is a happy comb-ination of residences, cornerstores, commercial enterprises,and parks. The regulationsthere forbid any sort of'dirty in-dustry from establishing in SantaBarbara County, and state thatall commercial buildings withinthe city limits must strictly ad-here to the Spanish style of arch-itecture.

The result is very plea sing. Thecity retains, to a great extent, acomfortable, small town atmos-phere while continuing to growand grow, simply because thefrequent corner stores and scat-tered business areas unify small

'SALTY'

neighborhoods so that they arestill individual and don't feellost in the city of 70, 000.

Since there has been so muchtalk of pollution in the recentmonths, it would seem very ap-propriate to start a new direc-tion in law-making and have thelaws established to provide forpollution control, rather thanzoning.

The pollution of the naturalelements, air, earth, and water,of course, would be basic, butnoise and visual pollution shouldbe restricted also.

In that way, if a factoryshould desire to set up next doorto a resort and it was surroundedby attractive shrubbery and fen-ing, and could not be heard, orsmelled, or seen, then it wouldbe acceptable and compatible.

I seriously hope that someconsideration will be given tothese ideas. Thank you.

-Jean Hogan,R. R. 1, Ganges.

Of course, next to Vancouver,I had to admit he sure was right.Soon we were talking to see ifwe might possibly have mutualinterests and that's when I askedhim if he knew Salt Spring Isl-and at all.

"What part of the Island?" heasked and I mentioned Fernwood,"but of course I know Fernwood,my folks live on Walker HookRoad."

Mrs. Ted Adams arrived homeon Thursday after a long holidayin Brooksville, Florida, with herdaughter and family, Mr. andMrs. Rider. Returning withMrs. Adams is granddaughter,Valerie Rider who will spend afew weeks visiting as a gradua-tion present fromher family.

I hope the brazen trio, twomales and their female accom-plice, feel very proud of them-selves to be able to steal alarge silk red ensign from theflag-pole only 50 feet from thehouse in broad daylight, whilethe occupants were home. Whenquestioned by the neighbor chil-dren they said they had permis-sion as it was no longer the Ca-nadian flag.

Seven years bad luck to them!Margo and Alec please note!

There was a large crowd atthe Long Harbour dock on Sun-day for the 5 pm ferry departure.Cars, campers plus cyclists andmany foot passengers. The ter-minal looks very attractive andclean.

into action and by 2: 30 pm thelamb was ready for serving.

Visitors ate hot dogs and visit-ed the beergarden or the coffeeand pop stalls, according to theirpreferences, while they waitedfor the big event.

There were brief entertain-ments when a pig was diaperedand many nails were driven bypounding women. Children ra-ced and some swam. Benny Be-gon jeered at contestants whorailed to knock down a coconut.It was an easy, gentle day.

Transportation was easier.Stacey's Water Taxi from Gan-ges came with their two boatsand the Marlin Water Taxi vess-el to haul passengers from theSaturna Wharf to Campbell'sBeach. Confusion,which had oc-curred in previous years didn'texist. Traffic movement wassmooth and piers were not over-loaded.

As usual, the end of the mealspelt the end of the day. Whilelater arrivals were still eatingthe call was out for the ferrypassengers.

BY PAPAJOHNOur Annual Barbecue was a

success again. If we start men-tioning names we could fill upthe whole paper.

The fair ladies as usual did awonderful job or jobs. Our re-freshment garden was ably han-dled by two of our more soberbrethren.

Noticed the Chairman of Bar-becue Committee had a realfancy pair of shorts on.

Mysterious Mary Backlund ofGaliano was on hand to handlethe news for a Victoria paper.

An awful lot of work goes in-to this annual event and it wasa tired but happy group whowent over the next day for theclean-up.

We had a new log set up forthe nail-driving contest and itdidn't take a few of the ladieslong to discover that the firstnail opened up a wide crackinto which the next two nailsslid very easily.

On Saturday evening we hada grand beach party. After theBarbecue it sure was nice to siton our beach and enjoy a wien-er and pop and listen to the ~more energetic people bettertheir heads off. Let's have :more of them and, besides, itis fairly profitable.

DID YOU KNOW....That the land on which every school that has existed on

Galiano Island has been built, has been donated by a privateperson?

The Board will research the lands obtained on the other GulfIslands and will publish the information in this column later.

DID YOU KNOW...That the Board has studied in depth the matter of the playing

fields at the Salt Spring schools, and prices have been securedfor their rehabilitation? The cost so far indicated is large en-ough to prohibit making any plans for the present year. How-ever, it is hoped that this can be placed in the 1971 Budget andwork can proceed early next year.

more about Planning (From Page One)

On the one hand, continuedthe speaker, there is a strongsection of the community thatreally wants to maintain its ru-ral character, keep its popula-tion low and its developmentpotential in check.

On the other hand, there is asizeable section of the popula-tion that wants business to ex-pand, land to be developed,transportation opportunities in-creased and, in general, pro-mote gradual urbanization.

"There are degrees in boththese objectives," continuedthe committee chairman, "butI see these two directions as thetc/^fcs. which must find resolu-tion«md compromise over thenext year or so."

The problem of planningSalt Spring Island must rest up-on a compromise between thesetwo factors, he asserted and allargument and discussions shouldtake place on this basis and"not whether Henry Schubartsaid, or did, this or that."

Later in the evening RobertHolloman proposed that themeeting decline to accept theresignation. Fight members ofthe audience voted against themotion.

It was an evening of closingbooks.

Earlier statements were dis-puted and corrected.

Director Marc Holmes, SaltSpring member of the RegionalDistrict Board, summarizes thedivision of the province into 18regional districts and the gen-eral function of the districts.

He quoted from the VictoriaTimes to recall a statement byMunicipal Affairs MinisterCampbell that planning hadcome to the islands.

He commended Mr. Schubartand the committee for the workwhich was entailed in the prod-uction of the planning question-naire.

The "late lamented zoning by-law" was drawn up in Victoriaand greatly altered here to makeit less restrictive, recalled Mr.Holmes.

When a group of resort ownersattended a planning meeting toexpress opposition to the by-law,the Advisory Planning Commit-tee called a meeting.

"To prevent dissention on theisland, we officially advised theRegional Board to halt action onthe interim zoning by-law untilfurther study could be given toalternate methods of zoning,"explained the island director.

He explained this action threedays before the Fulford protestmeeting, continued Mr. Holmes.He told protesters that die by-law they were opposing had been

withdrawn and that they had wontheir point. This was not men-tioned when the meeting opened.

"It is a sad day for truth andfair play," concluded MarcHolmes.

Adrian Wolfe-Milner thenshowed his disputed map. At therequest of the planning depart-ment of the Capital RegionalDistrict Mr. Wolfe-Milner hadprepared a map showing all bus-inesses, to the best of his know-ledge, operating on the island.The map had been cited as acontribution to an undesirableby-law.

Greater part of the eveningwas given to planning the past inanger.

Bob Holloman interjected half-way through the evening, with acriticism of the pattern of plan-

ning discussion."We are facing a split between

the commercial community andthe non-commercial community,'he commented, "A lack of un-derstanding has brought about asituation from which we are allgoing to suffer."

He described Mr. Sclmbart'sresignation as a grave disserviceto the island.

"Don't forget that the consu-mers badly need the businesses,"he concluded, "My feeling isthat the businesses need the con-sumers more than the consumersneed the businesses."

Meeting discussed the value ofan interim zoning by-law.

Bill Sawyer wanted to knowwhether his interests would beprotected by such a by-law."What guarantee do I have thatany permanent plan brought inwould not zone ray property backto rural or residential?"

He had no guarantee, said Mr.Schubart.

" Wouldn't it pay me to sell

out tomorrow and move to ano-ther country?" asked Mr. Saw-yer.

It is his God-given right tomake a living within the laws ofthe country stated the resort op-erator, "not the right of the pla-nning board or the regional boardor anyone else."

Spencer Marr recalled that twoweeks ago the Fulford meetingreaffirmed its confidence in the

committee and its chairman, ap-proved an interim zoning by-lawfor the island and asked for aninvestigation into incorporation.

Wilf Bangert asked whethermobile homes would be restrict-ed as he objects to seeing themall over the island.

Meeting closed with the pres-entation of 15 briefs on zoningneeds to the planning committ-ee.

ASSESSMENT BY HARCUS

HOW DOES IT WORK?Yes... incorporation could be achieved on Salt Spring Island.This is the cautious conclusion of a one-man investigating committee of the Salt Spring Island Ad-

visory Planning Committee.Heading a sub-committee on incorporation, T. E. Marcus has spent a week waiting on government

officials and wheedling information from officials of various municipalities. He has prepared exten-sive summaries of the feasibility of a municipality of Salt Spring Island and these will later be madeavailable to the island.

In the meantime, Mr. Harcus has compiled a brief summary of the economics involved. Followingis his analysis.
