According the minutes of the in-camera meeting, the tour will include a cross-section of people from the community who ' will tour the two mills and. talk to mayors, chambers of commerce and residents of the two U.S. com- munities. Factors to be considered, _ according to the report, include the environmental and economic impacts of the two high tech mills in the area surrounding them. Information collected on the trip will then be compiled and used as ihe basis of the city’s submission to the Major Project Review Pro- cess. me As for the expansion of our municipal boundaries, it would have a positive impact on our community, according to mayor Jack Talstra. In a letter to munici- pal affairs minister Graham Bruce dated July 2, the day before Oren- da announced their selection of the Dubose site, Talstra asks for assist- ance in beginning the process of extending the municipal boundaries because, he says, Terrace currently has no land left that is suitable for industrial development. | He offers a comparison of the major industrial tax base in three Northwest communities. There’s Prince Rupert with a total assessed value of $235.1 million, Kitimat who has a total of $232.2, and then Terrace, with only $21.6 million in assessed major Industrial land.

Both drivers were treated at Mills Memorial Hospital for undetermined injuries. industrial parks near Terrace shows that the land with the best indus- trial potential is the Dubose Indus- trial Site... This potential was outlined today with the announce- ment by Orenda Forest Products that it plans to build a pulp and paper mill at this site." Talstra goes on to say: "The city of Terrace has been very aggress- ive in the area of economic devel- opment. However, without the necessary land base it is often an impossible job. We expect that this move will assist us in developing | an economy and a tax base that allows us to continue to enhance ihe quality of life for our citizens.” The topic of the expansion of Terrace to include the Dubose site could form the basis of a lively discussion at this Saturday’s board meeting of the Kitimat-Stikine Regional District. The District of ‘Kitimat has also written a letter to Municipal Affairs, an item that is on the agenda of the regional district’s Economic Committee meeting. | Kitimat’s letter, dated July 25, is not an attempt to claim title to the Dubose site. Instead, says Kitimat municipal manager Jim Gustafson, it merely points out that Terrace’s efforts to claim the land are pre- mature and before any decision is made Kitimat would want to inves- tigate the potential effect of the Terrace expansion on their com- munity and have some input on any discussions.

V8G 1M7 It was a little after alderman Danny Sheridan and economic development officer Peter Monteith réturned from a trip to Ottawa that a council resolution approved the excursion. The reason, says Monteith, was a certain sense of urgency. ; City council has been pressing Ottawa for a customs service at the -Terrace-Kitimat airport for years, and with Shames Mountain up and running they believe the need is urgent, But Ottawa’s response to the city’s requests has been indif- ferent in the past and hasn’t really changed. Terrace doesn’t have an adequate volume of cusioms traffic and the feds aren't willing to spend the money, says Monteith. For this reason, city council adopted a plan created by the Airport Advisory Committee earlier this year and took the plan to Ottawa. The plan, Monteith explains, would see a_ city employee trained to handie custom duties and provide an on-call ser- vice at the airport on-call at no cost to the federal government. Monteith says a senior federal advisor on the revenue side of things was aware of the plan and was optimistic. He seemed to feel there would be no problem in allowing the plan to proceed on a one-year trial basis, An immigra- tion official had less to say, how- ever. Monteith says that without any previous knowledge of the plan, the official listened but had no immediate response. Monteith says the trip was a part of the city’s economic venture into providing an Alaska-linked econ- omic development strategy and that the trip, worth roughly $3,000, was money well spent. It was paid for out of his economic develop- ment budget, and with a little luck there might be some Alaskan skiers on Shames this fall. As well, the customs service might provide some additional activity with flights from Alaska to Northwest mines. Monteith explains that those flights are presently required to be clear customs at the Prince Rupert air- port, causing some frustration for passengers and costing the federal government money. It means ferry- ing the custom officer to Digby Island with each request for clear- ance. . Monteith says the city hopes to prove the viability of the service with the one-year trial period, and then continue the service until Canada Customs sees the need.
