AZ . Terrace Review — Wednesday, May 9, 1990

There is still no date, and for that
matter no known. location, for the
construction of a new corrections
‘center in Terrace.

B.C. Buildings Corporation cor-
porate affairs manager John
Murphy says negotiations on sev-

but does at least provide some
comfort to bench-area residents
living east of Northwest Commun-
ity College. There will be public
rezoning hearings once the site has
been announced.

According to Fraser’s letter,

eral properties are still ongoing} concerns expressed by bench area

and there is nothing further he can
say at this point.

A recent letter from solicitor
general Russell Fraser to MP Jim
Fulton, on the other hand, doesn’t
offer much more insight into just
where the new center will be built

residents have been "noted" but the
30-acre section of Crown land
bordered by Soucie, Mountainvista,
Marshall and Bailey hasn’t yet
been dropped from the running. He
does say, though, that at least one

of the other areas being considered

"is viewed as being more suitable".
While Fraser doesn’t identify any

of these other properties,. he does . Cumstances of

the March 23 .

offer.a hint. He states that: "Once
a site has been confirmed the

‘municipality will establish a sched-

ule of zoning. hearings in which
the Corrections Branch will parti-

cipate." It’s only speculation at this
point, but this would seem to indi-
cate that all the properties being
considered are within Terrace
municipal boundaries.

Foundation sets auction date

Fund raising for the purchase of
a C.T. Scanner for Mills Memorial
Hospital has been successful to a
point but there is still a ways to
go. If things work out, though,
events to be held this summer
could mean that this RE.M. Lee
Foundation project will soon be a

reality.

According to Terrace Health
Care. Society Chief Executive
Officer Michael Leisinger, the
summer’s activities will begin on
June 16 with what has become an
annual Celebrity Roast and Auct-
ion. The name of this year’s celeb-

Lane resigns board

” "There will be at least one major
change in the Terrace Health Care
Society this fall. Chairman David.
Lane, a nine-year member of the
society’s board, has resigned effec-
tive Sept. 13. This means that
during their annual general meet-
ing on Sept.3 the society will be
looking for a replacement for the
direction and drive Lane has pro-
vided in past years.
Elected terms for three other

Bowering

board members expire this fall and”

this may or may not mean that
there will be other changes on the
board. Fred Hislop, Candice Ker-
man and Olga Power will have
completed their three-year terms .

this fall but have yet to decide

whether to run for another term or *
stand down.

rity is still under wraps and, con-
trary to the name of the event, the
celebrity isn’t the item to be auc-
tioned off.

A number of useful, and not so
useful, items once belonging to
celebrities of various stature will
be collected for auction but the big
one this year comes through the
generosity of Terrace-born artist
Roy H. Vickers. Leisinger says
they have obtained an original
Vickers painting along with the
rights to limited edition prints and,

. if the artwork is ready on time,

will go on.sale June 16. If for
some reason the painting isn’t

ready on time, there will still be .

plenty of items: to purchase and

available at some future post-cele-
brity auction.

inquest into
‘drowning death

_ After. revicw-
ing the cir-

drowing death
of six-year-old
Joey Parsons
in a man-made

. pond at Sam-

son’s Poultry
Farm, coronor
Paul Mona-
ghan has
ordered an
inquest be held
at a date and
location yet to
be announced.
Monaghan, the
coroner for
Kitimat, is

conducting the

g JOEY PARSONS k

inquest because Terrace coroner Jim Lynch was not in town at the time
of the incident and Monaghan started the original investigation.

In an accidental death, there are two courses of action a B.C. coronor
can take, One is an inquiry, more like an informal investigation and not
open to the public, and the other is an inquest, which is heard before a
panel of five jurors and is open to the public. ;

Terrace coronor Jim Lynch explains that the jury hears all the facts
from witnesses and experts and then determines who, what, when and
by what means the death occurred. He says that after this determination

is made the jury is also encouraged to make recommendations that
might prevent any other deaths from occurring under similar sets of

circumstances.

This recommendation is then forwarded to the Chief Coronor’s office,

who informs those responsible what steps must be taken in onder to

prevent a recurrence of the event. He says the Chief Coronor then
monitors the situation to ensure that these corrective measures are
