City council okays
plan for walkways

New public hearing set for revamped OGP

By JENNIFER LANG
AFTER MUCH wavering,
Terrace’s city councillors
have decided ta back
planner David Trawin's
long-term plan for a river-
side path on the eastern
edge of town.

The sidewalk and walk-
way plan in the updated
official community plan

won't be changed, despite
complaints from one river-
side property owner.

But councillors may go
ahead-with a new plan to
allow a five-year. grace
period that would allow
some northwest bench re-
sidents to subdivide their

- rural properties.

';. That “means the public
will get another chance to
comment on all of the pro-
posed revisions to the Offi-
cial Community Plan, the
document that guides de-
velopment in Terrace.

'. Just two property ow-
nezs — bench resident Brad
Harrison and commercial
property owner Glen Saun-
ders:- complained about
paris of the revised OCP,

~ Council recently defea-
led-the proposed OCP up-

‘date bylaw, and last week
agteed ta hold a second
public hearing. It takes

‘place Monday night in
council chambers.

Councillor Val George
described both complaints
as “matters of principle”
that needed to be resolved
before going ahead with
the update.

“This would be chan-
ging the rules on people on
very. short notice. I really
don't care if il’s one pet-
son or 1,000 making those
éomplaints.”

Car crash

SOME TERRACE resi-

dents were left in the dark..

July 11 after a late night
car crash triggered a power
outage.

.+ Police said the single
vehicle accident happened
at the intersection of Cale-
donia: Dr., Labelle Ave, .
and Thomas St. shortly
after midnight.
<The driver of the 1997.
Subaru lost control of the

car, left the road and hit a «
tree with enough force to*’

split it, police said.

'. “The tree then hit sur-
rounding power lines,
causing an area-wide
power outage.

Members of the Terrace
Fire Department were on
scene to assist in the first
response.

“Deputy Chief Fred Bur-
rows said the initial call
teceived was that a vehi-
cle had gone over the em-
bankment of Lanfear Hill.
Buta second call soon

after indicated the acci-

dent was near Labelle.

He said when fire fight-
ers arrived on scene the
driver was already out of
his vehicle and the crum-
pled wreck of a car was
partially submerged in a
small swamp.

The driver of the vehi-

cle,.a young Terrace man,
was treated for minor in-
juries by B.C. Ambulance
Service paramedics, trans+
ported to hospital and later
released.
“. Police have charged the
driver under the Motor Ve-
hicle Act for driving with-
out due care.

THIS path running under the new bridge is to even-
tually become a formal developed city walkway.

Councillor Lynne
Christiansen agreed. “It is
council’s job to look at
those individual. cases. |
don’t think that's going to
be a major thing,”

Christiansen and
George argued in favour of
ihe five-year grace period
for rural properties. on’ the
northwest bench that are
just outside of the pro-
posed Urban Containment
Boundary, a measure de-
signed to help preserve

“This would be
changing the rules
on people on very
short notice.”

agricultural Jand and guard
against urban sprawl.

That would allow affec-
ted owners time to subdi-
vide their lots to the :pre-
sent two-acre minimum.

George also said it was
unfair for the city to ask a
property owner lo give up
some land for a future
walkway along the river.

“Again, I think it's a
question of individual
rights,” he said.

Councillor David Hull
was the only councillor to
speak in favour ofyagi

ahead with: the update i

is. He called the comp

mise on the bench “worse

than spot zoning.”
“You can’t have a free-
for-ail — that’s why it’s

called ‘planning,’” Hull
said. -

He’s in favour of plan-
ning for future walkways,
t00.

In. Vancouver, condo
and office tower develo-
pers have given up hugely
expensive real estate in
order to create pedestrian
sea walls that encircle
much of the downtown and
False Creek, Huil said,

He pointed out the City
of Terrace received just
two complaints out af
12,000 residents - a sign
all aspects of the proposed
OCP update are sound.

The second public hear-
ing takes place Monday,
July 22 at city hall.

Trawin, who's overseen
the lengihy OCP update
process, told council last
week the city’s entire
walkway plan would have
lc be scrapped if they
didn’t want to extend the
cily’s network of trails
along the Skeena River.

That’s because a num-
ber of properties are al-
ready designated for future
walkways under the exist-
ing community plan, Tra-
win said.

Designating land for a
future walkway allows the
cily to require the walk-

lo, :

veloper to provide side-
walks or parking lots.

“Trawin said thee 5 no”
‘different than asking a de-
