Noting the gates. were currently.open:from noon to 8 p.m.. only, chamber president. Sharon Taylor ’said latecomers were dumping garbage in private driveways and side roads off -Kalum Lake Drive. . “Many ‘people are working in their yards and around their homes later in the: evening,” she pointed out. For that reason, the chamber suggested the dump remain open, at least for the summer months, until 10 or 11-p.m. In asking the matter be referred to today’s planning and public. works. committee meeting, alderman Bob Cooper pointed out extending the hours would likely require hiring another attendant. That, in turn, would drive up landfill operational costs. Uplands sewer okayed Instead of spending $30,000 on a sewage disposal system for its planned Uplands Elementary school expansion, School District 88 has offered to contribute that money towards the cost of connecting the school to the city system. While agreeing to the hook-up request, council noted it would be part of a planned extension of the city sewer Lines in- to that neighbourhood. The city is still waiting to hear whether a provincial grant for the project has been approved. Council and school district officials will meet in the near future to discuss the proposal further. Washroom planned Terrace Youth Soccer is ready to move to phase three of its Christy Park project — the construction of washroom and changing facilities on the site. Spokesman Don Highe said TYS would pay for the cost of the building on the understanding the city would take respon- sibility for maintenance thereafter. Noting “the location of this facility will likely be a very sen- sitive issue,”’ Highe requested a meeting with the recreation committee to discuss the type of f building planned and its positioning at the park.
