Truck

TERRACE — A proposed by-
law which would ban heavy.
vehicles from all but a few city
streets will drive up trucking
company costs and could force
them to relocate outside the city.

That was the waming delivered
fo council jast week by Bill
Sauer, manager of the North West
Loggers Association.

Sauer was reacting to 8 memo

Frank Bowsher.

Bowsher said numerous .com-
plaints had been received about
loaded trucks’ on residential
Streets and the noise created in
residential areas by trucks starting
up in the early hours of the t momn-
ing.

Those complaints were. aC-
companied by demands the city
tackle the problem.

lishing by-laws similar to those in
Williams Lake, another com-
munity heavily dependent on the
forest industry.

The Williams Lake by-law bans
vehicles with a gross weight of
more than 5,500kg, (12,000Ibs.)
from all residential streets and

. property except for buses and

moving vans or municipal
vehicles ‘'while engaged in
work”’, -

That weight limit would affect
even unloaded logging trucks,
meaning drivers could no long
park their vehicles at home.

Bowsher also proposes restrict-
ing trucks to a designated route,
to include Kenney and Halliwetl
Aves., Kalum Lake Drive and
portions of Hwy: 16 running
through the city.

. However, Sauer sald that route

He pointed out some truck
repair shops were located in areas
which would be inaccessible un-
der the proposed regulations,

"These businesses have been in |

place for many years,’’ he added,

Ken Houlden of Houlden Log-
ging echoed those concems,
estimating It would cost his com-
pany more than $100,000 to relo-
cate.

me also pointed out the compa-

IE forced to relocate, Sauer
wamed ihe cost of commercial
property in Terrace would likely
force affected operations to move
to Thornhill, “resulting in a loss
of tax revenue to the city,””

He did agree loaded logging
trucks should not be allowed on

However, his association
wanted to work with the city on a
solution “to minimize the
hardship to our members while

addressing the conems of the |

larger community.””

Houlden suggested all trick |

drivers were being ‘‘painted with
the same brush’? because of the
actions of just a few.

He maintained those causing
the problem should be dealt with
Individually rather than making

~ all truckers pay.

The proposed by-laws, he said,
‘*would be no different than as-
king that all dog owners move out

a few inconsiderate ones.”’
