Page A14 ~ Terrace Standard, Wednesday, June 6, 1890 ‘All dressed up no place to go. TERRACE — Although the ci- ty has decided it will pay the full cost of. purchasing a device needed to-:improve local playing fields, aldermen accuse the schoo] district of having gone back on a promise to pay half the bill, Carrying a pre-mixed com- bination of soil, sand, seed and — if required — fertilizer, the top dresser device is towed across a playing field by tractor. When the equipment’s sensors detect a low spot in the surface, sufficient mix is released to br- ing the area up to the level of the rest of the field. Alderman Danny Sheridan said agreement had been reach- ed at a meeting held Nov. 20 last year to split the cost of the new equipment under the two bodies’ recreational facility joint-use agreement. At that time, he said, the district’s only concern had been that it should be allowed to use the top dresser on school fields in other communities within its jurisdiction such as Stewart and Hazelton. The city agreed and the district had subsequently given a written commitment the item would go to its budget commit- ‘tee, “We left presuming it was going to be done,’’ Sheridan _ said. As a result, the city had in- cluded $106,000 in its original, February budget to cover half the cost of the equipment. A few weeks ago, however, the ci- ty had learned the district had not earmarked a matching sum in its budget. “It ticked us off a little bit,” he admitted, adding council! had included the extra $10,000 need- ed for the purchase in its revised budget. ~~ Referring to the district’s re- Danny Sheridan cent expenditure of $75,000 for a consultant’s study of ad- ministration staff salaries and job descriptions, Sheridan sug- gested, “‘Maybe they used it (the $10,000) to find out. what everybody does down there.’ However, while he agreed no money for the top dresser had been included in the district's budget, secretary-treasurer Barry Piersdorff rejected the charge it had reneged on the deal. Maintaining the commitment had been only to consider the item in its budget deliberations, he said that had been done ‘‘but it got cut in the early stages.” Emphasizing ‘educational programming is the high priori- ty” in formulating the district's budget, Piersdorff added, ‘The city still has taxing authority and we don’t, I can’t see us go- ing to referendum for a top dresser.’ fe _ SPATSIZI WILDER SPATSIZI| ‘SPATSIZI WILDERNESS ; VACATION Box 3070, smithers, B.C., VOJ 2NO, (604) 847-2909, Fax 847-9039.
