Some had it easy

Central Kootenay Regional
District director Martin Van-

Vanderpol and Area B

TORONTO (CP) — Eight

Continued from page Al

Finally, council plugged
another loophole in the ori-
ginal anti-noise bylaw which
would have made it illegal for
BC Timber's Celgar opera-
tions to operate.

Section 7 used to prohibit
“the venting, release, or
pressure relief of air, stean
or other gaseous material,
product or compound from
autoclave, boiler pressure
vessel, pipe, valve, machine,
device or system,” from 11
p.m.-7 a.m. (9 a.m. Sundays.)

The bylaw meant BC Tim-
ber legally couldn't release
steam after 11 p.m. or before
7 a.m. (9 a.m. Sundays). Now
the bylaw adds, “other than
in an approved designated
industria] area” — such as
the Celgar operation.

The other 11 bylaw sec-
tions are still in effect, and
council agreed to review the
revised bylaw over the next
two weeks and amend it or

eliptical site for development
because of the low land cost.

He said low land coste will
ensure the project car: go
ahead where the recent First
City Investments project on
Columbia Ave. failed. He said
the First City proposal would
have returned just 2.7 per
cent on the investment be-
cause of high land costs,
where the eliptical site will
return at least 10 per cent.

Charne stressed the major
supermarket and department
‘stores attracted to the com-
plex must be different than in
Nelson or Trail so the mall
will draw shoppers from the
two larger centres.

The mall will privide 200
full and part-time jobs —
‘where a city works yard
would employ just 20, Charne
said. He added the proposed
mall is also more compatible
with an area’s existing plaza
and hotel, and would provide

juildings than under indus-
trial use, but would provide a
greater tax base.

He said First Commercial
looked downtown but
couldn't find a “suitable site”
to make the investment
worthwhile, he said.

Two ti id

Charne pointed out he has
contacted a number of de-
partment stores not now in
Nelson or Trail, and so far
has received a reply from
just one — Zellers — the
same store First City Invest-
ments attempted to obtain
for its proposed shopping
mall,

Carne said Zellers is inter-
ested in Castlegar, but not
unless the property is zoned
for construction. He added he
can’t see any major store
committing itself unless the
site is properly zoned.

“I have an excellent rela-
tionship with all the depart-
ment stores not represented
in this community,” he said.

But Ald. Charlie Cohoe
.was skeptical. He said council
‘has seen other developers
come in with promises, but
“they've all let us down.”

He said he isn’t convinced
Charne will have any more
success than First City, add-

their proposal off the ground

market here.
-“I just don’t have good
feelings about it,” said Cohoe.
Cohoe said the biggest
problem is access to 18th
Street. Woodland Park resi-

dents just don't want aay
more traffic congestion, he
said.

As he understands it, Co-
hoe said, area residents
would rather have a works
yard than anything else — if
they had to have something.

“Access was the focus of
much discussion. Cohoe
added, “I'm just not con-
vinced access in and out of
that site is a reality.”

But Charne said his firm
isn't making “idle promises”
and offered to enter into an
agreement whereby the land
would revert back to its
original zoning if the com-
pany’s proposal does not go
ahead.

Ald. Carl Loeblich sai’ he
agreed with Cohoe, but also
felt there should be develop-
ment in Castlegar. “If we
don’t have development,
we're dead.”

Loeblich added he has
never been in favor of the
works yard at the site,
despite having voted twice in
favor of an ion by-

and there has never been a
vote on any such bylaw.

Loeblich added his major
concern is if the firm will
fulfill its obligations.

Ald. Carl Henne said he
liked the idea that no small
stores would be included in
the mall and felt that point
would receive the support of
downtown businessmen.

Ald. Albert Calderbank
said he wants to see the proj-
ect go ahead, but added,
“Unfortunately, you have the
wrong site.” He said Wood-
land Park residents would be
strongly against the prop-
osal.

City engineer Igor Zahy-
nacz said council wouldn't
have any control over traffic
and noise from the shopping
centre — like it would over
the works yard.

He also said if that site, the
First City parcel, and the
Boels site near the Hi Arrow
hotel are all developed it
could mean the downtown
area might suffer. He said

on the weekend, both having
occurred Saturday.

A vehicle driven by
Michael Malekow of Crescent
Valley escaped damage when
it was in a collision with a
1981 Pontiac driven by Cath-
erne Vandungen of Castle-

gar.

Vandungen and a passen-
ger in the vehicle, Ken Ken-
nedy, were taken to hospital
by ambulance suffering head
injuires. :

Damage to the Vandungen
vehicle has been estimated at
$6,000. The incident took
place on Highway 3 at the
weigh scales.

A single vehicle accident,
with the driver identified as
Brenda Stewart, 20, of
Castlegar, resulted in $3,000
damage when it left the road
and rolled, at the intersection
of the D-D and Lower Ootis-
chenia roads.

No injuries were reported.

It was erroneously re-
ported in the Oct. 25 issue of
the Castlegar News that
Shelley Briggemen, 20, of
Castlegar was charged with
failing to yield after her ve-
hicle was in collision with
another driven by Fred

Later, Woodland Park res-

meeting.

Cohoe added that he
doesn’t want to overregulate
residnets, but at the same
time a number of people have
“confronted” him over the
years with noise complaints.

He said council has an
“obligation” to respond to
those complaints and the re-
vised bylaw attempts to do
that. He admitted the first
proposal was “a little bit
harsh.”

Ald. Albert Calderbank
added that the only problem
the revised bylaw doesn’t
properly address is modern

traordinary costs the city is
assuming.” She said city staff
were sent to Vancouver last
week for a meeting and the
city has had to retain a soli-
citor.

As well, she's worried
about future costs for inde-
pendent consultants when
the Hydro studies are made
public.

She suggested Hydro pay
these costs. “I really don't
think any of you want these
costs passed on to the local
taxpayer,” she said.

Moore concluded that
Mykes and Hydro have been
cooperative and have dis-
closed as much as possible at
this stage. She said Mykes
even raised the possibility of
a city impact committee,

a proofed area for
modern groups to practice.

Chemicals

WARSAW (AP) — Mil-
lions of Polish workers defied
Communist authorities with
a one-hour nationwide strike
today and Solidarity union
leader Lech Walesa ‘said: “I
want this to be the last strike
of this kind.”

The protest, the first na-
tionwide strike in seven
months, ended at 1 p.m. and
most workers returned to
their jobs.

But miners in southern

Murphy Creek dam impact
committee.

In an interview Monday

Turning to Keenleyside
dam, Mykes said transmis-
sion corridor studics there
are still in the very early

ge.

Past studies have been
done on the dam's generating
capacity, he said, but never
on the transmission lines:

He said it is only “a month
or so — maybe just weeks”
before there is a preliminary
decision on the Keenleyside
dam. However, he said that
will be just the beginning.

Consultants have yet to
start to study the environ-
mental impact of the Keen-
leyside project, he said, and
will only go to that stage, if
feasibility studies are posi-
tive.

Mykes confirmed Hydro is
looking at Keenleyside dam
separately from the Murphy
Creek project, though it is
possible it could be tied into
Murphy Creek.

Mykes said the water level
won't necessarily mean all
residents at or below the
level will be flooded out.

He said Hydro will have to
look at the situation and
might dyke, fill in low levels,
reinforce stable slopes, or
raise homes.

He said slope stability
studies have been under-
taken, but are not finished
yet. “That's still some
months off.”

Hydro has preliminary fig-
ures on how many homes and
who might be affected, he
said, but those figures could
still change “radically” de-
pending on a number of
things, so he declined to
make them public.

Re Ootischenia garbage

Our Central Kootenay
regional district as the oper-
ator of this facility has been a
dismal failure, even to a final
humiliation of having to pay a
fine to another branch of
government.

The people who pay taxes
to support our regional dis-
trict are not getting value for
their money, when a most
essential service like a reg-
ional garbage dump is re-
stricted to a point where
access is only available at
most inconvenient times.

The bloated bureaucracy
with fancy offices, expensive
staff and consultants are a
heavy drain on the taxpayer,
and should be done away
with. Our provincial M.L.A.s
can well co-ordinate the
various departments such as
the Dept. of Highways, Dept.
of Recreation end Conser-
vation and others for the
benefit of the unorganized
areas. The money saved by
doing away with this super-
flous level of government can
pay for many essential ser-
vices. In a denfocracy, the

vants. Too often this concept
