f -Banyay threatens to resign over cruise costs question. Joe Banyay, chairman of the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine, told members of the board he would resign if they asked Kitimat for the $2,000 grant back that was spent toward the municipal cruise. He made the statement in response to a recom- mendation from Frank Armitage, chairman of the finance committee, to ask, that in view of the $25,000 pipeline donation, does Citimat still need the $2,000 from the regional district? “J. feel ashamed a member of this board could come up with this recom- mendation,” said Banyay. He added that the money was given in good fait several months ago and there should be no reason to change that view now. Vie ° Jolliffe, Mayor Gorden Rowland’s replacement as director on the board, suggested there would be no harm in asking Kitimat but - Banyay threatened to resign if the board even asked such a question. He added he was not taking this position as a member of the Kitimat municipal council but as _ Chairman of the regional -board. Alderman Fran Buschert of Kitimat, alternate for Mayor. George Thom who was absent, ended the discussion by saying the cruise route does not usually follow the oil tanker route . but: the Kitimat pipeline - interests offered the $25,000 extra cost to reroute the ship to follow the tanker route. She said the $2,000 will still be needed. - Vie Jolliffe was blocked several times by Banyay at the beginning of the meeting when the financial statement on the Terrace arena. and swimming fool complex were discusse en Jolliffe said the Terrace recreation facilities were running at a loss and this was creating a problem for all areas which pay into them Banyay said he must wait until new business. Later Jolliffe explained “we have a major problem maintaining recreation services in Terrace.” He said there are not enough users, costs are going up and the competition is going up. Mie said the competition comes from places like the ski hill, ete., that are the newer facilities, ‘‘Maybe we are overservicing this place,” he said, Fran Buschert said Jolliffe was obviously unaware of a study made in the U.S. which proved that once the public begins to use one facility it uses ali the facilities, She added Kitimat had long been aware of the study. Les Watmough, of Thornhill, said the outlying areas should pay less for the arena and swimming pool. ‘Frank Armitage, of Stewart, said the only way to make money in these facilities is to have a liquor lounge, even if churches are against them. The board was pleased to hear about the $30 million to be spent by the federal government on road con- struction north. It has been fighting for improvements on Highway 37 for many ears but it now wants to ow the breakdown on the federal and provincial sharing and what the schedule for the road im- provements will be. The board will also ask Premier Bill Bennett to make a study on the high value of freight to the north, particularly food freights. It lieves there should be a subsidy on all freight into the north. ‘ The board passed a motion from Fran Buschert in response to information from CNR that its plans to discontinue its _ passenger service from Jasper to Prince ‘Rupert were not approved by the Railway ansport Committee. The committee ordered CN to investigate further the feasibility of reducing the losses incurred on this service and to report to the committee by July 29. ~ Buschert said the board should write a letter to the CN saying it should in- . vestigate reducing its losses by improving its services. She added if the service. improved it would be better utilized. , The board Teceived word from J.P. Taylor, Assistant -Deputy Minister of the Department of Municipal Affairs, that the regional district's share of natural gas revenue is $30,000. The board received a complaint from James Wood about the poor quality of tie down area available to general aviation at the airport. Wood says formerly the aircraft were tled down on the inside of the taxiway. This area is level and grassed over and an aircraft could be taxied in and out of position. As of this spring, Wood explained, overnight parking has been restricted to an unprepared rough, rocky area where damage and resultant safety problems will occur if aircraft are taxied on this surface and it is very dif- ficult or impossible for one rson to push an aircraft ck in, The matter was referred to the airport committee. According to the MK Bay Marina Committee report the costs of a locked gate §- onto the floats are being investigated. However, Les Watmough who serves on the committee, says the regional board should speak out against the proposal. He said there is no need for a lock because the watchman lives at the marine and there will be no great risk of vandalism. He said’. a gate will create problems for people coming rom the water because they would be locked in. The recommendation will be sent back to the com- mittee for its review with the regional district’s concern expressed.
