— Terrace Review — Wednesday, July 24, 1991 iti K’shan projec head of schedul A permanent three-classroom addition to Kiti K’shan school was started in April to replace aging portable classrooms. The project is currently well ahead of schedule. TERRACE — It appears that the three-classroom addition and reno- vations to Kiti K’shan Primary School will be finished and ready for use well before the early Octo- ber deadline. The project, worth $600,000, was awarded to Tri-City Construc- tion of Kamloops April 11 over the objections of local trade unions. However, unlike Tri-City’s previous effort in Terrace, the United Buy & Sell furniture build- ing on Highway 16, the Kiti -K’shan project is being built by local tradespeople under the super- vision of Helmut Reinert, a builder with a long history and reputation in Terrace, a former partner in H&H Builders. ‘Reinert said in an interview this week that he realized when he took the job that Tri-City had a public image problem to overcome here. "Tri-City uses many different supervisors," he said. “The quality of the job depends mainly on the attitude of the supervisor. ‘“f nade it clear to them before I took the job that quality would be ihe itiain thing on this project." As of this week the project is two months ahead of schedule. Drywall is being completed. Next, the painters move in, and after that the floor covering will be installed. Two of the four portable buildings that the addition is to replace have been moved, and sub-contractors are in the process of installing a six-inch water main, replacing the 1%-inch main previously used. Reinert points out that the new water capacity will allow installa- tion of a sprinkler system. Reinert also points out that all workers on the.site are from the Terrace-Kitimat area, and all of them are union tradesmen. The company intends to bid on the upcoming $2 million expansion and renovation project at Uplands Elementary School, Reinert says, and he intends to mun it if they’re successful in getting the contract, Youth Soccer ready for next Christy Park phase It’s a project whose time has come... perhaps. And Terrace city council’s Community and Recre- ation Services Committee has been asked to weigh the pros and cons, On behalf of the Terrace Youth Soccer Association, Don Highe has suggested to council that the time has come to consider Phase III of the Christy Park project. Phase ILI calls for the construction of a combination washroom and change toom, and Highe says Youth Soc- cer will pay the full cost of con- struction if the city accepts respon- sibility for care and maintenance after it is built. Highe acknowledges that site location and building specifications may be a sensitive issue and has requested permission to attend the committee meeting to outline their plans. | - Kermode’s Alcohol & Drug Program | is hosting a one week'workshop Title: “The Rising Spirit’ Date: August 12 - 16, 1991 Time: —~ Registration: 8 a.m. Workshop: 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Monday thru Thursday Friday: 8:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. Monday, Aug. 12 & Tuesday, Aug. 13 (A.M.) upstairs at the Kermode Friendship Centre Tuesday, Aug. 13(P.M.) - in community tent located beside arena: Place: _, Speakers: Lee Brown Chief Leonard George Workshop will end with a potiuck lunch. .
