Community Values. Landscape architects assist in integrating transportation needs with existing community goals and values by providing expertise in comprehensive corridor planning, urban design, historic preservation, and community involvement. They also assist in facilitating timely project delivery and building community consensus by implementing principles of community involvement and context-sensitive design, including: • harmonizing the roadway with existing topography and land uses. • preserving and enhancing community character. • meeting the needs of nonmotorized travelers. • preserving historic resources such as historic landscapes. • supporting the incorporation of transportation art, gateway monuments, and community identification. Landscape architects contribute to the safety of the traveling public and highway workers through roadside design techniques that minimize or eliminate worker exposure to traffic. These design techniques can be grouped into three categories: safe facility location, recurrent activity elimination, and safe maintenance access. These improvements enhance safety by placing or relocating facilities that require recurrent maintenance activities to protected areas or to areas outside the clear recovery zone. Typical examples include locating, relocating, or clustering facilities such as irrigation controllers, backflow preventers, remote control valves, ramp meters, changeable message sign controls, and cabinets to areas adjacent to the right- of-way fence or to protected areas. See the Highway Design Manual (HDM), Topic 706, for more information. These improvements enhance safety by reducing or eliminating recurrent maintenance activities such as frequent pruning, graffiti removal, irrigation system repair, herbicide application, and weed control. Typical examples include the following: • Removing plant material that encroaches upon sight distances • Planting shrubs or vines or using textures on noise barriers • Automating irrigation systems • Providing vegetation control treatment beneath guardrails and signs • Paving slopes beneath bridge structures • Paving narrow areas • Providing contrasting surface treatment (paving) beyond the xxxx area pavement • Placing rock or other inert mulch materials • Removing signs that are no longer required These improvements enhance safety by providing maintenance workers with safe access to roadway and roadside facilities requiring regular maintenance and include providing stairs on steep slopes, mainten...

Community Values. In an easily overlooked section of the report, the greatest challenge faced by agriculture today is finally touched on, ‘British Columbia has many issues to confront beyond the simple protection of our agricultural land base through good land-use planning and decision-making. Agricultural values are best protected when community-based processes instill values supportive of agriculture. Ultimately, rules are no substitute for culture. We need to continue to xxxxxx community values that understand and support the activity that feeds us.’ For the sake of farmers and farms, let us hope that we can develop this understanding and appreciation before it is too late. Hopefully, future reports from organizations like the Suzuki Foundation will focus on how to make farming a viable and provincially appreciated activity. The Suzuki Foundation report doesn’t reveal any new information or insights regarding the threat to, or protection of, British Columbia’s agricultural lands. Its utility is in the timely release and balanced critique of the ALR and the ALC at a time when a number of controversial agricultural land removals are up for decision. Copies of the ‘Forever Farmland’ report are available for download at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxx/XXXX/XXX-XXX- final3.pdf. 0 Clamcatcher Development Corporation issued a press release on April 1 that, they said, will be ‘great news for everyone who ever wanted their own waterfront property.’ The company, which used to be a closely held Vancouver mining company (part of the Conglomerate conglomerate) and has in the past spearheaded projects in bottled water (‘Clam Up’), run-of-the-strait electric power production (‘the Clam Generation’), and seafood- flavoured doughnuts (‘Clambits’), is proposing a radical plan for the development of Anniversary Island. Clamcatcher’s scheme is to strata title the intertidal area that surrounds the Island. This new ‘tidal title’ scheme was conceived by Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, spokesman for the company, after he spent an unanticipated night on the tiny Island as a result of the sudden deflation of his vessel during a gamefishing expedition. ‘Our novel approach to development will enable Anniversary Island to be more than a wildlife playground,’ he commented. Xxxxxxx admitted that a few OCP changes will be needed, and Clamcatcher plans to approach the Saturna Island Trust Committee, which has jurisdiction over the Island, over the next few weeks. The tide, observed Bivalve, goes up and down, revealing n...

Community Values. An Open House was held in July 2015 inviting the local public to discuss recent developments completed by the Community Forest and to gather information on community values. The purpose of the Open House was to seek the public’s perspective on the role of the Community Forest regarding forest education and the management of local watersheds in the face of climate change. The main concern from those attending the Open House was the continued availability of water. Discussions centered on diminishing water levels and stream flow and the impact that forestry could be having on their drinking water. Climate change was also seen as a concern, although some members of the public were unconvinced that it was directly contributing to drought and lower than normal water levels. As such, water is the primary resource within the CVFC’s management area and has been a source of contention and discussion for the past several decades. In light of what is currently happening throughout BC in terms of lower than normal snow packs and increasingly hotter and drier xxxxxxx, it is expected that water users will become even more concerned in the coming years.
