Firefighters tear away plywood sheets to get at a fire in an abandoned house at 202 Haliburton St. Tuesday.

Nanaimo Fire Rescue’s investigation into the fire was not complete by press time.

Firefighters’ practice burn starts early

BY JENN MARSHALL

THE NEWS BULLETIN

Fire crews got some real-life practice Tuesday

in an abandoned building they intended to use

for training.Doug Bell, chief fire investigator with Nanaimo

Fire Rescue, said crews were called to douse a

fire in a boarded up house on Haliburton Street

just after 5 p.m.

“The house is to be torn down but the owner

donated the building to the fire department for

training,” said Bell. “It looked like somebody had

been sleeping there at some point.”

He said the fire in the small, single-storey

structure was not major and crews will likely

still be able to use the building for training

exercises.Bell said fire officials have not yet determined

whether the fire was deliberately set by squatters

or caused [email protected]

An alternative power source

could be in the winds for Gab-

riola Island.Burnaby-based Zero Emis-

sions Energy Developments is

interested in the Regional Dis-

trict of Nanaimo’s so-called 707

lands, located in the middle of

the island, to develop a small

wind farm that would provide

energy exclusively to Gabriola

residents.Philip Nelson of LandSolutions

Inc., a partner of Zero Emis-

sions, said the site could hold

four to six wind turbines that

would provide 10 megawatts of

energy, enough energy to power

2,600 homes.“We’re just in the preliminary

stages but at this point we feel

Gabriola is a good candidate for

a project like this,” said Nelson.

“One hundred per cent of the

power generated would be used

by Gabriolans and would reduce

power imports by up to 50 per

cent.”Nelson said other benefits of

the project include job creation,

payments to land owners, a sta-

bilized power grid and conserva-

tion.The land, 286 hectares of clear-

cut, has no management plan

attached to it. Zero Emissions

asked that the RDN consider a

memorandum of understanding,

which would give the company a

first right of refusal on the prop-

erty.Erik Andersen, president of

the Gabriola Ratepayers Associa-

tion, said the idea of a wind farm

Provincial funding helps centres stay open

and provide programs throughout the day

BY DARRELL BELLAART

THE NEWS BULLETIN

Street life will get a little eas-

ier next month for the worst

off of Nanaimo’s homeless.

Samaritan House and the

New Hope Centre, the city’s

two homeless shelters, are both

getting new funding that will

enable clients to stay warm

and dry both day and night

starting next month.

B.C. Housing is in the final

stages of negotiating new con-

tracts that would enable the

operators of both facilities to

extend their hours of opera-

tion through the day.

Currently, women staying

at Samaritan House, a 20-bed

facility on Nicol Street, are

released into the streets at 9

a.m. The shelter reopens at 3

p.m.Men staying at the 23-bed

New Hope Centre emergency

shelter are turned out at 8:30

a.m., but they can drop in again

for coffee at 10 a.m. and at noon

for lunch. The shelter closes

again at 1 p.m. and reopens for

coffee at 3 p.m., then registra-

tion starts at 4 p.m.

Most shelter clients have life

skills issues and many are bat-

tling mental illness, addictions

or both. And many are either

unemployable or marginally

employable. They often fill the daylight

hours wandering downtown

or in the main library branch –

anywhere they can congregate,

socialize and, in the winter

months, stay warm and dry.

Under the new arrangement,

they would have the option to

stay indoors at either facility

all day.“Right now we have showers

and laundry for them in the

morning, and they would have

access to that and they could

meet with their case workers

as well,” said Rob Anderson,

New Hope shelter manager.

He said under the existing

contract, it’s actually costing

the Salvation Army money to

staff the shelter. A new con-

tract takes effect April 1.

“The hope now is with the

funding we should be in a

break-even arrangement,”

Anderson said.

George Weir, Samaritan

House shelter manager, said

many of the women staying at

the 20-bed facility spend their

days wandering the streets,

with breaks for coffee and

lunch at the New Hope Centre.

■ COQUITLAM COLLEGE, SCHOOL, COMMUNITY CENTRE OFF LIMITS TODAY‘Specific threat’ closes collegeLARA GERRITSTHE TRI-CITY NEWS (Coquitlam)

Douglas College, Pinetree secondary school and the Pinetree community centre are closed today following athreat on the college’s David Lam campus.But police and college officials are releasing little information about the source, nature or target of the threat made to the RCMP.“ I nv e s t i g a t o r s h av erequested that I not release any details,” Coquitlam RCMP Cpl. Brenda Gresiuk said yesterday afternoon.“Right now, we’re right in the middle of the investiga-tion and we’d be really inef-fective if we disclose whatwe’re doing.”

D o u g l a s C o l l e g e announced the closure in apress release sent out shortlyafter lunch yesterday. The col-lege was made aware of the threat Wednesday, accordingto the release, and, as a pre-cautionary measure, decided to close the campus as of 11p.m. last night.All students and staff weredirected to stay away from the campus until further notice.Notices of the closure was spread via information on the college’s website (www.douglascollege.ca.), its infor-mation line (604-527-5452) and signs posted on college doors.

Classes at the college, as well as Pinetree secondary, remained in session yester-day.“The threat that was received basically had to do with [Friday],” college presi-

dent Susan Witter said. “Weobviously took this threat very seriously and took the opportunity to close the cam-pus, obviously because of the safety of our employees and students.”More than 1,000 students and employees would nor-mally be at the college on aFriday, she said.

RCMP did not recommend the closure of any facilities. The decision to close Pine-tree secondary was made by School District 43 officials at about 2 p.m. yesterday “as aprecaution in light of safetyconcerns” and notices were to go home with students, said spokeswoman Cheryl Quinton.When asked about how missed classes will be madeup, she said, “We don’t havethat level of detail yet. Wewill work on a plan and for now, we’re just getting theword home with the stu-dents.”

Closure of Pinetree com-munity centre – adjoining to the secondary school – was made by the city manager and staff.“We’re doing this strict-ly as a precautionary mea-sure; we haven’t been asked to close by the RCMP,” said Edie Doepker, Coquitlam’s manager of parks and leisurefacilities.

Community centre staff will be redeployed and notic-es will be posted on doors,she said.Some Douglas College students wondered why theywere still in classes yesterday despite the threat.
