The bylaw prohibits smoking in the outdoor customer service areas of restaurants, in playgrounds, trails, plazas, playing fields and recreation facilities and venues, as well as all of Rotary Lake Park. The new bylaw also establishes a buffer zone of 7.5 metres around these venues as well as around the public entrances of public buildings. “This bylaw demonstrates Dawson Creek’s commitment to a healthier community and quality of life and we applaud them for taking this significant step forward,” says Bonnie Harper, tobacco reduction coordinator with Northern Health. “Dawson Creek has set the bar high in Northern BC with this bylaw and we hope to see other Northern municipalities follow suit.” Currently, 30 BC municipalities have enacted smoke-free bylaws that exceed provincial standards. None of these municipalities are located in Northern BC where smoking rates consistently trend about 10 per cent higher than is found in the remainder of the province. “The City of Dawson Creek has shown considerable leadership and progressive thinking on the issue of smoke free spaces,” explains Kerensa Medhurst, health promotion coordinator with the Canadian Cancer Society. “By enacting a strong bylaw, the city will protect citizens from the hazards of second-hand smoke, support smokers who want to quit and denormalize smoking for children and youth.” Second-hand smoke is extremely toxic, containing more than 7,000 chemicals, at least 70 of which are known to cause cancer. The Canadian Council for Tobacco Control found that being within a few feet of a smoker outdoors may expose individuals to air pollution levels comparable to homes and bars that allow smoking. Researchers out of the Ontario Tobacco Research Unit found that, depending on air conditions, fine particulate matter in second-hand smoke doesn’t dissipate until 9 metres or further from its source.

Annually, 37,000 Canadians die of tobacco-related illnesses including cancer.

Right now I am reflecting on the service of the Chetwynd Volunteer Firefighters. To how many callouts within the District did they respond? How often were they called to dowse the flames outside the District boundary? How often were the Jaws of Life used to chew out a trapped, hurting, and frightened person from a prison of crumpled steel and plastic? How many lives were saved; how many family pictures remain to warm hearts and rekindle memories thanks to the Firefighters' timely arrival? These numbers are much more than dry, sterile stats. These tell stories of bravery, even heroism. They are the stuff that explains the meaning of community, of service, of trust. These stats tell stories whose endings would be different if the volunteers had decided to stay in bed when the call came on a frosty night – or stay on the ball field on a sunny afternoon. Do you have any idea what you pay for the fire protection you probably take for granted? No, of course you don't. And I had to get the figure from those who work with figures. For strictly operational purposes the Chetwynd fire department costs you more than $2000 for every callout. With more than 120 call outs during the year within town you can do the arithmetic to approximate the total cost. Suppose only five callouts occurred over the year, would you balk at paying over $50,000 per incident (because costs for maintaining the department would not be materially reduced). Suppose only five houses were saved and no lives lost to the flames. Could you justify the expense of maintaining the Fire Department? But at 120+ callouts in the past year you can imagine the havoc that would be wreaked on our town without a smoothly working, well-functioning, fully equipped, fully staffed, and highly trained volunteer fire department. Firefighters also responded to more than 80 calls in the rural fire-protection area for which the Peace River Regional District contributes to the cost. Those living within the rural fire-protection area pay PRRD taxes for this service. This close and cooperative association between Chetwynd and the PRRD in fire protection is an example of how municipalities and Regional Districts can work together for mutual benefit. Every property saved is more than just a property saved. It is years, decades, maybe lifetimes of dreams and hard work, children's pictures, babies born, and graduations. Peoples' lives are bound up in their homes. Peoples' futures are linked with their houses and lands. To have them fly away as noxious gasses in the wind, and to be reduced to ashes on the ground – heartbreaking doesn't even say it. Yet, even with our fire department, it happens and people have to start again. It's a tribute to the Creator's genius that we humans even survive. And what can I say about the Jaws of Life?

IMPORTANT NOTICE Peace River Regional District Rural Residents ROYAL LEPAGE Norma Tower 250-788-5388 Building Bylaw Adopted by PRRD Board Building Bylaw No. 2131, 2014 that was successfully adopted at the November 27, 2014 Board meeting and went into effect November 28, 2014. Building Bylaw No. 2131, 2014 was prepared, based on previous Bylaw No. 1189,1999. Building inspection is now mandatory under the same specified area that existed under bylaw 1189, 1999." Minor administrative and legislative changes were made based on a legal review. Changes were then presented at three public meetings held on October 9 (Chetwynd), October 23 (Dawson Creek) & November 5 (Charlie Lake). At those meetings community members made a number of recommendations, such as including the definition of "farm buildings" and making the application form part of the bylaw, which are now officially incorporated into Building Bylaw No. 2131, 2014. Building Bylaw No. 1996, 2011 is now repealed. However, there is a transition provision that allows for all permits previously issued under Bylaw 1996 to be administered under that bylaw until the project is completed or the permit expires. The building permit fees and process will be as it was before Bylaw No. 1996 (pre March 2013). The Peace River Regional District Board approved administration to bring back a report in November 2015 on holding a building bylaw referendum. If a referendum is held it will be non- binding as it is a regulatory bylaw for which there is no authority to hold a binding referendum. The objective would be to obtain the opinion of the electorate regarding the PRRD building inspection service and bring the results back to the Board for further direction. The bylaw and applications are available on the PRRD website www.prrd.bc.ca and/or can be picked up at diverse. vast. abundant.
