A2 CASTLEGAR NEWS, June 25, 1980 G Consumer Comment iy a a Commu Are you fed up with food prices? Do you wish you had more control over what the supermarket puts on its shelves? Would a friendly smile at the checkout make you happy? Thousands of British Columbians have turned to, and are successfully partic- ipating in, food co-operatives as an alternative to super- market shopping. They not only save money but also make decisions on the kinds of foods provided and how the co-op:is managed. And that friendly smile? It probably belongs to one of The basic principles that . all co-ops have in common are the democratic system of one vote per member, regardless of the number of shares hold; the return of any yearly surpluses to members; open memberships and an empha- sis on the values of a your P system. MAXIMUM LEVEL LOWERED Continued from page Al various factors interact,” Stephenson said. “And then following that, what the engineering tradeoffs can compare that with the oth tions that are affected by different levels.” Stephenson said his firm will probably base its study on that level but impacts of other elevations. “I suspect the sensible thing for us to do is to do a base calculation at 427 and then note any aspects that are affected or describe the impact at different levels, 424,” the consultant said. He said he was doubtful projected impact cf a 430-metre level would be “significant.” Commenting on the consultant's state- ments, the Hydro spokesman offered no confirmation on the use of 1,402 feet as the base figure, “but that is the level Hydro is seriously looking at.” Contour maps prepared by B.C. Hydro indicate a 1,402-foot level would mean the flooding of 95.99 acres in North Castlegar and 11.8 acres in South Castlegar. Low-lying land southwest of the river as well as a portion of Third Avenue and as many as 10 residences on Dumont Crescent would be lost at that elevation, according to the maps. The Hydro maps also indicate about four they'll know are and they dwellings on S: tenth Avenues, part of the Stanley Humph- ries Secondary Schoo! grounds plus two ixth Street between Ninth and and one east er d adjacent h consider the of the Zinio Park tennis courts are among several low spots which would sustain some groundwater seepage at 1,402 feet.

Funds for these donations come from an annual Sport's Day organized locally. The report on the group was read by the president of the DCA committee Law- rence Popoff. A group called the “Wo- mans Spiritual Meeting” also presented a report on their two-part movement within the USCC. Vera Voykin, representing the financial committee, explained that their group originated in 1968 and is perpetuated in memory of Anna P. Markova who wished people to live in mM cult- ural pursuits by holding regular meetings every sec- ond week for discussions and for planning projects of pub- lic service. A favored goal on the present agenda is the building of a senior citizens’ low rental housing project in the area, under the charter of the Doukhobor Benevolent Society.

Some donations went for other causes.

TEE RES” The ‘two-part ‘testing procedure begins with a series of questions about the employee's medical history. “The questions also delve into their lifestyle because often a person's off-the-job activities can influence their hearing ability,” he says. “Researchers are also beginning to find that other factors such as heart disease and cigarette smoking may influence a person's hearing.

RRAP EXCLUSION Continued from page Al chairman noted that the present RRAP aid structure assists middle-income as well as low-income families in home renewal. Families earning $16,500 or less may qualify for forgivable loans, he said, of as much as $3,750 if the income is $9,000 or less. Families earning more than $16,500 are not eligible for forgivable loans but may qualify for a loan at 13-per- cent interest, he noted. Mayor Audrey Moore said she hoped Kristiansen would be successful in hi investigation of the possibi- lity of including Castlegar in the RRAP. “It's my understanding from talking to the senior citizens that some of them are going to have to consider leaving their homes because they have no money to renovate,” she said. Interviewed later, Moore confirmed there were indications some senior citi- zens “will actually have to vacate property” without the funds. “It's a great hardship,” the mayor said. “Not only that, but our senior citizens look on it as a very, very unfair sort of situation.” “I really can't under- stand it,” she added. “It's a good program and it's good for senior citizens.
