Hi all. I live about 7 blocks from the factory and the stench on many days, given the right wind, is just as disgusting here as it is walking past the plant. Here is what the City says in regards to the plant: "City staff and other agencies , such as the Greater Vancouver Regional District (which is responsible for air-quality measures) are continuing to work with Hallmark Poultry to deal with the air quality issues related to their operations.
The Hallmark operations are legally permitted within the industrial zoning that applies to their sites, but it is still expected they will operate in a manner that respects other nearby businesses and residential properties.
Your comments are helpful to us in working towards a solution to this issue."
