TERRACE. _ - Couneil has
thrown its support behind a de-
mand the Department of

Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) —

change its management prac-

tices. for fish. entering the —

Skeena River. -
The move came in response to
a North by. Northwest tourism

association proposal which sug- .

gested both the commercial and.
recreational fishery would
benefit if the DFO moved the
commercial fishery out of the
mouth of the Skeena, introduc-
ed year-by-year reductions on
the number of days its boats
could fish and created a no-
fishing corridor “all the way to
the open sea”.

As well as calling for a review
of DFO’s current management
practices, council also agreed to
again raise the issue of out-of-
province anglers having to pur-

chase additional licences if they

want to fish many Of. the local
rivers.

‘Aldermen planned. ‘to: meet
with provincial Environment

ministry officials last week to.
tell them the $10 and $20 per

day ‘special waters” licences
were are driving tourists away
from the area.

The city will wait for a report
from its engineering department
before deciding whether to sell
off part of one of its streets.

David Bartley has asked that
he and the owners of three other

properties bordering on the
alley between. Graham and
Goulet’ Aves. be allowed to
either lease or purchase the. alley
from the city.

Although ‘the... alley is
nominally part of South Sparks
S1., Bartley said the city did.

‘nothing to. maintain it and of-

ficials had ‘told him there were
no plans to upgrade it in the
future. a

Meanwhile,. he and his
neighbours were facing pro-
bles with litter and vandalism
caused by passersby. The police
had also been called on, several
occasions to: deal with people
using it as a drinking spot.

However, before making a

ees ies Sine

decision on Bartley’s request,
council wants to find out what
effect giving up the land would
have on city water and sewer
services in.the area.

ek tk:

Council has turned down a

similar request to purchase the
right-of-way extension of Maor-
ris St. | -.

Pointing out the right-of-way
was grassed at the moment and
maintained by. himself and a
neighbour, Peter. Meuser said he
needed the extra land to build @
garage adjacent to his home. He
also noted the extension only
led to the escarpment above
Skeenaview Drive and therefore
‘can never go anywhere”.
