Recreation Problem

. Last week Castlegar council refused
to pay a town planning firm because it
was not satisfied with the information gi-
ven, or not given, as the case may have

en,

The V firm was refused pro-
gress ph ‘because a road survey it
had undertaken for council was not in line
with council’s own ideas’ of what a road
survey should be.

Council then went, on to note that a
recreation survey the firm had been com-
missioned to undertake had not been done

yet, and, because of this, no progress pay-.

ment would be made.

Fair enough. Council is appointed as
a watchdog on municipal funds and pro-
bably was correct in refusing payment on
the recreation survey.

But it is more difficult to justify non-
payment, or even a delay in payment, for
the road survey.

It would appear that since council had
a preconceived notion of what course the
Toads ii in town should take, it only called in
pr i: it did not,
in this inst: have the of its
convictions.

It would thus appear that the rela-

As for the recreation survey, which
hasn’t been completed, the less said the
better.

A district recreation survey in an ar-
ea that is only partially organized along
municipal lines is doomed to failure, Such
a survey should await formation of a dis-
trict. municipality.

Collection of district recreation taxes te

from, say, Robson and Blueberry Creek
isn’t a bad idea providing those centres
get something for their money. But from
an administration point of view it’s not
feasible.
People don’t like paying taxes period
-and certainly not to an organization which
only promises joint recreation facilities,
Requesting a firm of professional
planners to set up a blueprint for district
recreational facilities is not the job of an
di town in the

district.

First a recreation district board sho-
uld be set up and then the survey drawn
up by the board members. This can ei-
ther be done internally, or, failing a meet-
ing of minds, by an impartial organization,
for example the Vancouver firm of plan-
ners. :
