Council Shorts City waits on bus decision CITY COUNCIL will meet | with regional district directors ' from Thornhill and outlying ares before making any deci- sion about whether to kill transit service in Terrace. j The issue came up at a recent council meeting when a proposed renewal deal from B.C. Transit was presented that would extend service for another five years. City representatives at the regional district board mect- ings have suggested they might want to look at dis- continuing the city subsidy for bus service in Terrace. They agreed to table the is- sue fora month, That’s expected to give them time to meet and consult with the regional district reps. Equipment | sold off | COUNCILLORS approved recommendations ta sell two pieces of heavy equipment to the highest bidders, The city will sell a 1990 John Deere 450 G crawler/tractor to Spring Creek Aggregates Ltd. for $46,500. And ihey’ll sell a Hoffman Duolift two-post hoist to New Age Mechanical for $1,650, Rotary gets sale leftovers COUNCIL voted 2-1 to turn unsold items from its recent city garage sale over to a Skeena Valley Rotary Club garage sale May 27, - Gordon Hull opposed the move on the basis that other service clubs weren’t given a chance at the leftovers, Council did agree, however, to ask administration to draft a policy on what todo about the leftovers if the garage sale method is used in the future, Hull suggested that when the city advertises the garage sale next year it could at the same time invite interested non-profit groups to approach the city about any unsold items, Among the leftovers this year were about 30 bicycles, adding machines, computers, terminals and miscellaneous items. Queried by a councillor whether the items were ‘Gunk’’, deputy administrator Denise Fisher said ‘I would suspect some of it is better junk than others.” Councillor Ed Graydon de- scribed the situation as more of a storage problem than a value problem, Rezoning considered A PROPOSED rezoning of land at 4833 Graham from Rural (A1) to Residential (R6) will be considered at city council's Thursday planning committee meeting.

THATS ALOIS Schillinger with a cloth fish which, when opened, displays what's inside. Schillinger and others have set up dis- plays on how to improve fish habitat. Fish habitat work explained RESIDENTS NOW have a chance to see what a local society says are cost effective and effi- cient ways to improve fish stocks. The Watershed Bio Enhance- ment Society has rented office Space on Lazelle Ave. for the month of May to contain dis- plays. The largest display is a series of scale models of ways creeks can be improved to encourage the growth of fish food and to protect younger fish, says society spokes- man Alois Schillinger, ‘We want to show that you can restore creeks, that you can im- prove fish habitat,”’ said Schil- linger last week, ‘The most important thing here is the food chain. If ihere is no _places in which to feed and rest. QUEEN FOR A DAY * Facial * Make-up + Cut & Blow Dry ¢ Manicure $500 food, if you break the food chzia, you'll affect the fish,’? “Tf there isn’t sufficieat food, fish just don't have the means to survive,” said Schitlinger, The models display ways to fall trees into creeks to provide pro- tection for fish. Also shown are large rocks, called riffie rocks, which break up the current of a creek. This then gives smaller fish calmer There’s na charge to view the displays but donations are being accepted by the society.
