A16 - The Terrace Standard, Wednesday, September 20, 1995 Council Shorts Residents vote against paving FOR THE second time in a month, a bare majority of proper- ‘ty owners have voted against a proposed. Local Improvement Project (LIP) paving proposal. Engineering director Stew Christensen reported to council 16 of 31. owners opposed plans to .. pave South ‘Sparks St. between Keith and Haugland Aves. _ However, as in the case of a South ‘Kalum St. proposal last Month,the value of the land owned by opponents falls short at 45.28 per cent. To defeat a council-initiated LIP, those voting against must exceed 50 per cent in both numbers and value of land owned. Christensen has asked the mat- ter be referred to this week’s pub- lic works committee meeting. The South Kalum LIP went the same route with council ultimate- ly deciding to go ahead with it, | Budget overrun gets approval COUNCIL has agreed to top up the budget for reconstruction of the alley. between the 4600 blocks of Lakelse and Greig Aves, Sole. bidder on the project Spring Creek Aggregates quoted $25,300 plus $7,000 to remove and reconstruct the curb, gutter and sidewalk ramp on to Emerson St. Additional costs for paving engincering. and. contingencies will put the- project $10,000 over the public works department’s pre-tender estimate. Agreeing to proceed with the project and award the contract to Spring Creek, council also ap- proved pulling $10,000 from the underspent Local Improvement Project budget to cover the dif- ference. Late payment plea rejected COUNCIL has tumed down a re- quest from Hildegard Jakobs to waive her property tax late pay- ment penalty charge. In a letter to council, Jakobs was adamant she had dropped the cheque off at city halt outside of working hours, pushing it through the gap between the doors to the main office area, Treasurer Keith Norman said there was no record of her cheque having’ been received. He also suggested the janitorial crew had a very good record of not throw- ing out paper found on the floor. Althongh council decided it had to tum down Jakobs’ waiver re- quest, it has asked administration to look into her suggestion that mail slots feeding locked boxes be installed on the outside door to city hall and the inner doors to the office area. ° _. City gets _ tent offer A LOCAL businessman has of- fered ‘the city the cquivalent of nearly $10,000 for its big, and now slightly mouldy, tent. - The deal proposed by Mike Brousseau of Mike’s Roofing Ltd. would see the city receive $5,000 in cash plus free set-up for city functions twice a year for four years, worth another $4,800 says Brousseau. “The condition of the tent has been deteriorating in the last few years,”’ he said, pointing out it was now showing signs of mould: and blaming lack of maintenance and storing it while still damp. Brousseau has helped set it up for the past three years for the Thorn- hill Community Church picnic. His bid has been referred to the recteation committee, _ Intersection said dangerous LOCAL resident Wendy Watt wants the city to do something sbout the Intersection of Sparks St. and Lazelle Ave. which she describes as ‘very dangerous”. “Tt is virtually impossible to safely. cross the intersection without already being halfway - through it,” she maintained in a letter to council. Watt added the addition of the new miedical clinic on Park and expansion of the Lazelle mini- mall undertined | the need for ac Won. 14 iscut AND DRIED. Tobacco Kills.
