The cost estimates are in for

just a matter of deciding who's

Winlaw.

Inwood says he hasn't been ‘for-
mally approached by tlie. city. but
has had some communication with

going to pay for it.

The Downtown Revitalization
Committee, who have been meet-
ing for several months, were pre-
sented last Thursday with capital
cost estimates for the proposed
plan to improve North Castlegar.

The majority of the merchants
who were present at the meeting
are ready to proceed to the next
Step: determining what percentage
of the estimated $3 million cost
will be paid by the city and how
much area businesses will have to
Kick in for.

“We feel we're beyond the con-
cept issue now,” said Gary
Williams, City. Administrator. “The
options now are how much the city
will put in.”

The Winlaw designer has been
responsible for the look of such
local cities as Nelson, Trail and
Rossland. And as Inwood is the
only local professional in his, field,
he is an obvious candidate to create
Castlegar's image.

“I'm tired of people bad Tapping
Castlegar,” said Inwood.

He believes that Castlegar’s
downtown approach has usually
leaned toward engincering changes
such as re-treeing and Jandscaping
which are expensive investments.

more affordable to do with build-
ing facades,” said Inwood.

the phases of the imprevements,
the estimated costs and the tax
implications of the project.

In the memo, three scenarios
were presented as to who would
actually cover the costs of the work.

According to Urban Systems
Ltd., the downtown property own-
ers could either split costs with the
city, pay 70 per cent of the price or
cover the entire amount.

Needless to say the most favor-
able scenario expressed by mer-
chants at the meeting was to split
the price tag with the city.

“If the merchants want to sce a
vibrant downtown they have to do
something to see it happen,” said
Williams

A realistic time frame for the
Process to work itself through,
would be to start discussions over
this summer and start tendering
permits by next spring. Then by
next summer the revitalization
could be put into place.

Last week an unidentified work-
er on the project called the Castle-
gar Sun to complain about a situa-

s, or by the t of
awnings and signs.

“In Rossland, Trail and Nelson,
I designed entire towns,” he said.
“Castlegar buildings are relatively
plain-Jane and some look as if they,
haven't been painted in 20 years,":
said Inwood.

“The other towns had more her-
itage buildings to work with, but I
try and work with whatever is best
in the town. There are some build-
ings in Castlegar from the ’30s and
*40s periods,” he said. “But I'd
have to take a hard look at the city
before making a judgement.”

Inwood said that it’s common
for him to research city archives to
see what a town looked like in its
early days and try to bring out
some of that character in his
designs.

One problem he sees with the
development of Castlegar is how
spread out the city has become.

“The whole strip aspect of
downtown has always been a diffi-
cult one to get a focus on,” said
Inwood.

It seems the increase in chlorine
dioxide coming out of the stack
tums the steam a dramatic greenish

smell that Celgar’s Mill Chemicals

This workshop taught by an

The safety coordinator for the

afraid of,” says Boudreau.

Both coordinators say that the
increase in Clo2 yesterday wasn’t
something to cause alarm among
people. The most important thing
was how positively workers
responded to the situation by going
to their designated areas.

Klein says, “A part of the con-
cem is that the workers do smell an
odor, and they can't tell what the
concentration is so they respond.”
He says in those circumstances,
one of the people constantly moni-
toring gas levels on the property is
called to check the area. ‘

Klein believes, “Communica-
tion is the key. Getting the right

info to the right people will cay. H
