CSRD Area “C”<br />

- submitted by Ted Bacigalupo, Director<br />

Board Meeting Jan. 19, <strong>2012</strong><br />

Certificate of Achievement<br />

Darcy Mooney, Deputy Manager of<br />

Environment and Engineering, CSRD<br />

recently completed a course in Local<br />

Government Administration. The Chair<br />

of the Board of Examiners, B.C.<br />

Ministry of Community, Sports and<br />

Cultural Development provided a letter<br />

of recognition for Mr. Mooney's<br />

academic qualifications and work<br />

experience. As Chair of the CSRD it<br />

gave me great pleasure to present Mr.<br />

Mooney with yet another Certificate.<br />

Smart Meters Awareness Delegation,<br />

Mr. Steve Corrie<br />

A significant group of well informed<br />

supporters attended Mr. Corrie's<br />

knowledgeable presentation of the<br />

Background Information for Smart<br />

Meters to the CSRD Board. The group<br />

provided an executive summary of the<br />

associated risks and the potential health<br />

hazards associated with Smart Meters<br />

use in homes. Based on the<br />

"Precautionary Principle" approach, the<br />

delegation requested the Board support<br />

a resolution instructing the BC Minister<br />

of Health to implement an immediate<br />

moratorium on the mandated<br />

installation of smart meters. Although<br />

there was support among board<br />

members in the end the Board decided<br />

to defer a decision to a later date and<br />

invite BC Hydro to attend a meeting to<br />

provide its perspective. More than 30<br />

BC municipalities have already<br />

forwarded resolutions to the Ministry of<br />

Health requesting a moratorium. At the<br />

Sept. 2011 UBCM Convention (Union<br />

of BC Municipalities) 55% of the<br />

members attending the resolutions<br />

session also voted to support a<br />

moratorium.<br />

Review of Performance Objectives for<br />

2011<br />

Chief Administrative Officer, Charles<br />

Hamilton provided a review and<br />

summation of the goals set for 2011. A<br />

South Shuswap Proposed Zoning<br />

Amendment Bylaw 701-45<br />

This bylaw proposes to amend<br />

setback requirements for certain<br />

From the Editor:<br />

At the Salmon Arm City Council<br />

meeting on January 9th, <strong>Sorrento</strong><br />

received the news it had been waiting<br />

for. Council surrendered use of the<br />

Heart of the Shuswap logo to<br />

<strong>Sorrento</strong>! The slogan was taken off<br />

the Salmon Arm signs very quickly,<br />

and they will decide on their own new<br />

slogan. Many thanks to those who<br />

spearheaded this cause, to those of you<br />

who signed the petition, and especially<br />

to those who were part of the <strong>Sorrento</strong><br />

delegation at the council meeting.<br />

Chamber of Commerce<br />

The South Shuswap Chamber of<br />

Commerce Annual General Meeting<br />

will be held Feb. 4, <strong>2012</strong> at the Olde<br />

Towne Centre. Doors open at 6:30.<br />

Cast your vote for the new Board of<br />

Directors and get an overview of the<br />

year ahead for the Chamber.<br />

Be part of an active Chamber. In the<br />

past two years we have hosted the<br />

Olympic Torch celebration in Blind<br />

Bay, published the first Chamber<br />

Business Directory, attended all of the<br />

Spring and Fall Home Shows, and<br />

initiated the Chamber Business Award<br />

Competition.<br />

The South Shuswap Chamber is a<br />

non-profit organization made up of<br />

businesses, professionals and<br />

community groups. A valuable<br />

benefit of being a Chamber member is<br />

the opportunity to meet and network<br />

with other business people in the<br />

community, and gain greater local<br />

exposure for your company.<br />

We act as an Information Centre,<br />

providing information to the many<br />

tourists about our local businesses and<br />

encourage them to use the services<br />

provided by our community. We have<br />

well over 10,000 visitors come<br />

through the Visitor’s Info Centre<br />

yearly.<br />

Through our activities we attempt to<br />

bring the community together and<br />

foster good relationships between the<br />

businesses and people of the<br />

community making it a better place to<br />

work, live, and play.<br />

available 7 days a week, 24 hours a<br />

day whenever a medical emergency<br />

occurs. This sounds like a huge<br />

commitment. However, if we have<br />

enough Responders, no single<br />

more First Responders.<br />

Please contact us to find out how<br />

you can help. Bring this call for help<br />

to the attention of someone you know<br />

who might be able to help us. <strong>No</strong><br />

previous medical or first aid<br />

experience is necessary. We provide<br />

standardized training and equipment.<br />

Our role is to assist Emergency<br />

Family Information Update:<br />

Were you aware that <strong>2012</strong> has<br />

brought new car seat regulations to<br />

Canada? As of January 1 st , Transport<br />

Canada has implemented the following<br />

changes to the current car seat<br />

regulations. The changes include:<br />

• a new testing requirement using a<br />

three-point seatbelt to secure car seats<br />

in vehicles<br />

• changes to child seats’ dynamic<br />

testing to adopt most of the U.S.<br />

testing parameters<br />

• changing the definition of an infant<br />

from 9 kg to 10 kg<br />

• an increase in the maximum<br />

allowable weight limit of child seats<br />

from 22 kg to 30 kg<br />

• introducing dynamic testing<br />

requirements for booster seats<br />

• allowing harnesses to be certified for<br />

use on school buses by special needs<br />

children<br />

The federal government said there is<br />

no need for parents to replace a child<br />

seat as a result of these new standards.<br />

However, keep in mind a child car seat<br />

should be replaced if:<br />

• it was installed in a vehicle that was<br />

<strong>Vol</strong>unteers Needed to<br />

Read<br />

Many schools in the district will once<br />

again be participating in a children’s<br />

literacy program called “One to One”.<br />

The program trains volunteers to work<br />

one-on-one with children who are<br />

struggling with their reading and who<br />

would not otherwise receive extra<br />

Learning Assistance help in school.<br />

Parent and community volunteers are<br />

needed to support our students. The<br />

commitment is 1.5 hours per week<br />

from <strong>February</strong> to May. During that<br />

time, you will read with 3 children for<br />

30 minutes each. The children are in<br />

grades 2 to 7 and are selected by their<br />

involved in a collision<br />

• the shell or materials on the seat are<br />

ripped or damaged<br />

• the car seat has reached its expiry<br />

date<br />

Community Programming<br />

Information Update:<br />

With the onset of cold weather, we<br />

thought it might be a good time to<br />

remind all our community families to<br />

come check out some of the<br />

wonderful, warm indoor programming<br />

available in your neighbourhood.<br />

Did you know the NSSCRA<br />

facilitates two playgroups? We have<br />

the Shuswap Lake Estate Playgroup<br />

from 9am-12pm on the lower level of<br />

the Shuswap Lake Estates office. We<br />

also have the <strong>No</strong>rth Shore Parent and<br />

Tots Playgroup which runs every other<br />

Wednesday at the <strong>No</strong>rth Shore<br />

Elementary School. These are both<br />

free parented playgroups for children<br />

0-6 years of age.<br />

We also have our YOUth Resource<br />

Centre running every Thursday<br />

evening for 11-18 year olds. This<br />

group runs from 6:30 pm-9:30 pm at<br />

the <strong>Sorrento</strong> Memorial Hall in the<br />

<strong>Sorrento</strong> Drop In Society space.<br />

What Difference Does It Make?<br />

As a culture we are bombarded daily,<br />

hourly, almost minute by minute with<br />

news. As the news comes in it rarely<br />

seems very good. We hear about the<br />

political scandals, the conspiracy<br />

theories, the debt crisis, the potential oil<br />

shortages, the civil unrest, countries at<br />

war with each other, terrorism, broken<br />

homes, job losses, housing prices<br />

falling, and…. I have to stop, I am<br />

getting depressed just reading this!<br />

With all that is wrong with the world, it<br />

is easy to throw your hands up and say<br />

“there is no hope, what difference does<br />

it make”. Jesus is not confused about<br />

what is going on, he predicted it! This<br />

world is spiraling out of control,<br />

moving further and further away from<br />

the God’s original design. I believe the<br />

heart of the problem is the heart of man.<br />

It is not technology, or money, race or<br />

intellect. The problem is a Spiritual<br />

one. The hope for our world is a<br />

spiritual hope. When a person’s heart is<br />

changed, not through personal<br />

development, or positive thinking, but<br />

rather by gracenomics, (the love of<br />

Jesus), then a person changes. This<br />

changes individuals, families,<br />

communities, and can change our<br />

world. As this happens, people are<br />

brought together instead of being torn<br />

apart. Jesus is still changing the world<br />

today. This past Christmas our church<br />

family went through a series called<br />

“Advent Conspiracy” where we<br />

decided to give Jesus gifts on his<br />

birthday. ( I know, radical) We set a<br />

goal to raise 6500 dollars, to put a well<br />

in a needy community because this is<br />

the kind of gift Jesus would want.<br />

(6500 is the cost of one well) Clean<br />

water is the first and most important<br />

step out of poverty. We did not raise<br />

6500 dollars, instead we raised over 24<br />

000 dollars! That means that in the very<br />

near future, there will be thousands of<br />

women and children that are no longer<br />

walking every day for dirty water. I<br />

believe we are making a real difference<br />

in the world. How about you? Are you<br />

just reading the news? If you are, and<br />

that’s getting boring, I challenge you to<br />

make some good news with us at<br />
