tHoved by Alderman Ranger:

Seconded by Alderman Traboulay:

That the request of H.'& T. Kwast Construction, March 2nd, 1976,
for permission to clear by burning, property situated at the South-east
corner of Hastings Street and Davies Avenue, described as Lot 91, of a

Plan of Subdivision in process, be denied. Carried.
Mayor Campbell & Aldermen Laking & Thompson voted against the resoluticn.

Prior to passage of the foregoing resolution, Alderman Ranger
referred to a further report from the Fire Preventiion Officer on the
application, and pointed out that while it mentions the type of debris
to be burned on the 10-acre site (mostly cottonwood), it contains no
recommendation that the burning should go ahead. Alderman Keryluk
advised he had learned that cottonwood is in high demand by Scott Paper,
and suggested that the request be set aside to allow the owner of this
particular piece of property to investigate the possibility of providing
a useful service by making these trees available to that firm; however,
the Fire Chief stated that the applicant had advised him all the cottonwood
logs have been sold and all that remains to be burned are some large

cottonwood stumps, branches and tops, etc. Alderman Mabbett stated he
