A Developer he got commitment With the ‘potato warehouse'' controversy increasingly in (he news, one cannot help but wonder how developer Mario Di Giovanni of Madig Construction could have got himself into such a mess, ‘Last week, Herald reporter Andrew Petter visited Di Giovanni and his wife to get thelr side of the story. The account of that interview caused at least one alderman to change his mind and vote against the developer’s. application for a land use permit. .While it is not possible to print the entire transcript of the hour-long interview, we thought that readers might be interested in some sections which are most Pertinent tothe controversy. Af nothing else, Di Giovanni’s statements show how haphazard the system for approving rezoning is in Terrace. They alsodemonstrate the need for council ta develop a formalized and expeditious procedure for dealing with land use applications. Here’s how it all happened - in Di Giovanni’s own words : ‘ ao back to 1973. Spring ‘73. Herald: That was when you purchased the land? Di Giovanni: Ya, well in the summer of ‘73 I pur- chased the land. But before buying the land, and the owner of the land sold it to me, the deal was that if I could do something with the jand commercially I would y i Herald: So you had an. agreement... _ Di Giovanni: An agreement.

But that was verbal, there was nothing in writing. Herald: I understand. Di Giovanni: Now on account of this, what they told me verbally, so I bought the land. Because this town has never had anything established, and nothing solid, no matter where you buy land. There was no nning, nothing. You bu a piece of land and you as them bets ‘ou Can iio with it. you, “oh ya, go ahead buy it.

Di Giovanni: Ya, you know, they ‘didn’t have a plan you see. So they said...that’s what they told me. Of course on that basis I went ahead and bought the land and paid $69,000 for it. (At this point the discussion turned to the provinclal agricultural land other in reserve and issues, Soon,. however, Di Giovanni returned to the question of what kind of “commitment” he had received irom the district.) Herald: So your un- derstanding was that the district’s intention was to t industrial? Di Giovanni: That's right, that: was’ their ‘intention, Now ‘this’ ‘intention, this: was admitted - Wayne Buchanan admitted this in front of Jack Talstra at.a private meeting. .

(The conversation reverted to'a discussion of agricultural land reserve and flood plain problems.) Herald; You got the flood lain thing resolved...so en you applied ‘o the council for rezoning?! Di Giovanni; In October 1975 (holding up a sleet of paper), that's a formal application that I made to apply to have the land rezoned to build a warehouse,..They didn't do nothing until June ‘76. Herald: Did they just table it...1 ; -Di Giovanni: Nothing. They didn't table it, they didn’t consider it, they didn't do nothing, Herald: You must have bugged them about that.

Herald: (We) talked to a potato shed expert today, and that/s.not a potato shed. , Mrs. 24 Giovanni? No.2" Di Giovanni: . No,...That was because I gotfed up...80 the is, what we have to emphasize here is this: what does city council do in this town when you apply for something? Why do they wait so long? Mrs. Di Giovanni: Also my husband is a devstoper not a promoter, and the lan buys is to be used immediately... Di Giovanni: I am not a spec.ulator. And I've been here for 10 years and many people in this town know it. Herald: ...It's too bad more of this didn't come out in {he (Council) meeting tself, Mrs. Di Giovanni: Many of these other men knew it but they would never say it because I believe they do not want to incriminate themselves really you know... (From then on the discussion repeated itself, with Di Giovanni admitting, once again, that he had ‘never intended to build a. potato warehouse. He also talked about other issues, such as his plans for the modular home plant, etc.)
