Plans for a new halfway house in Vernon, have hit a brick wall at City Hall. City council is demanding Corrections Canada suspend further planning on the facility until the results of inquiries and court proceedings into the Bill Abramenko murder in 2004, are completed. Councillor Barry Beardsell says that could mean a two year delay. "I think it's time to be strong on it and say enough is enough until those trials are out of the way and the informaiton is at at, that this council will not support any action." Corrections officials have said in the past, they wouldn't proceed with the facility, without getting the city's support. Eric Fish is accused of killing Abramenko while he was on parole. Fish's trial for that murder begins in January. His preliminary hearing into the murder of Jeffrey Drake is set for next spring.
