Business Review _—(Sesente GOSIPS Airport study jf 7 J Br resone -costreduced {|| |. - by nearly half CITY COUNCIL will only have to spend half of what it expected to hire a consultant to do a feasibility study on taking over the airport. The council is hiring Rob Beynon of Horizon Pacific Ventures to draft a seven-year plan on the viability of run- ‘ning the airport. * As of April in the year 2000 Transport Canada is giving * up ownership of many small airports, including the one at Terrace. So the city is looking at whether it wants 10 take “over the airport. :, Council expected to pay about $50,000 for the study, but “it looks like it will only cost $26,000. That's because Horizon Pacific Ventures has already done much of the legwork in similar studies for airports around the province. Councilor David Hull expects the report will juslify the city’s request that the province turn over the lands that sur- round the airport. “On a day to day basis the airport would appear to be vi- able, but the minute you need a capital improvement, you’re done for,’’ said Hull, “The plan will hopefully show that we need assistance to E B u | ki n g U Dp = generate revenue.
