\nA weekly roundup of noteworthy news in municipalities across B.C.<\/em><\/p>\n

The City of Penticton recently conducted their second deer count <\/a>to gathering information for a possible cull of deer within the city boundaries. They finished with a total count of 49 deer, more than double the spring count.<\/p>\n

What’s worth $5 million? Apparently the furniture for the new Surrey city hall<\/a> being built in the City Centre.<\/p>\n

Beware dog owners….Metro Vancouver is cracking down on dangerous and aggressive dogs<\/a>!\u00a0 Proposed measures will include\u00a0 allowing park operators to demand leashes and muzzles, as well as the ability to fines people as high as $1,000 on misbehaving canines. On top of allowing operators to deal with aggressive dogs, the move is also intended to a number of new users and recreational activities such as longboarders, kitesurfers and electric wheelchair users.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Metro Vancouver, they are also considering how to crack down on wood-burning fireplaces<\/a> after concluding that wood smoke from home fireplaces and stoves may pose a significant health risk….just in time for the holiday season!<\/p>\n

Unfortunate news for those interested in Nanaimo’s industrial heritage as the two century-old dams at Colliery Dam Park are scheduled for removal<\/a> within the next year over and above the draining of existing lakes, in order to eliminate a potential flooding hazard in populated areas downstream.<\/p>\n

Some celebration in Coquitlam this week with the approval by the provincial government to move forth with the plan to rezone eight lots at Parkland elementary school for housing<\/a> and raise funds for future capital projects.<\/p>\n

The City of Surrey has postponed a vote on a proposed housing development in South Surrey’s\u00a0North Grandview Heights neighbourhood<\/a> that would require cutting down\u00a0 533 \u201chigh value\u201d trees.<\/p>\n
