OF BRITIS H

Accidents caused by driver
inattention, failure to yield, unsafe
speed and other behaviour injure
people and damage vehicles to the
tune of $4 million dollars in ICBC

“Glaims every working day. But in re-
cent years there’s been a startling
increase in “non-accidents.” Theft
from vehicles, vandalism, hit and
run and stolen vehicles.

These claims, including wind-
shield damage, have increased
by $40 million over 1990. In
spite of prevention programs by
the police and ICBC, such ciaims
are increasing the cost of auto
insurance for all of us. Together,
they add up to same $170 milton
in auto insurance costs that aren’t
always “accidental” and it doesn’t
look any better for 1992.

All of us.are the victims...»

Terrace Review —— Wednesday, November 6, 1991 31

Consultant hired
by city for major
economic survey

Terrace is to be surveyed,
questioned and planned for the
future. City council] has decided
to go ahead with a questionnaire
in an effort to determine the true
impact of non-resident fishing
licence fees as set by the prov-
ince. Local businesses will be
contacted to determine the num-
ber of fishing licences sold in
Terrace in each of the last three

_ years to find out if the number

of non-resident fishermen is
static, rising, or on the decline.

Another program, a Tourism
Action Pian, will also be carried
out over the winter months. This
plan is intended to target expec-
tations and goals and set objec-
tives to assist the hospitality
industry in the city.

And perhaps the most ambi-

COLUMBIA

tious programme undertaken by
the city to date will be a pro-
fessional $30,000 economic
survey. The idea is to identify
opportunities and assist in dis-
tributing departmental funds in
the municipal budget. It has
been approved for inclusion in
the first draft of the city’s 1992
budget.

That amount would be a por-
tion of the economic develop-
ment budget, which this year had
an allocation of $284,118. The
Economic Development Depart-
ment go: a 39.5 percent budget
boost compared to last year.

This edded expense to the
Economic Development Depart-
ment will mean trimming a little
for some other activity, and that
activity could be travel. Econ-
omic Development officer Peter
Monteith has played the role of
travelling ambassador on a num-
ber of cccasions this year, in-
cluding a trip to Hong Kong,

and city council approved three
more economic development
excursions during their most
recent meeting.

The first was an $1,100 visit to
Vancouver as a member of the
Major Project Review Process
steering committee investigating
the Orenda pulp and paper mill
proposal. The second involves a
$640, three-day stay in Prince
Rupert to attend the Northern
Airport Conference. The mid-
November conference will cover
topics like establishing munici-
pal airport authorities and airport
operations. The third is a $3,200

- stay in Spokane, Wash., where

Monteith and one city alderman
will man the Terrace display at
the Northwest Mining Confer-

_ ence.
