Questions referendum -

what tomorrow?

Editor, Castlegar News:

The peace of the house-
hold was shaken Thursday
with the Castlegar News’
statement regarding the: new
“show piece.”

TI notice the whole coun-
cil backs a referendum. The
mayor says the cost is small,

tree, ut, by whose standard?,She
ni ‘ZFeays it's only $50 a year, $4 8

month, or to take it further it
is $1 a week or 14 cents a day.

TV suggest council ask a
pensioner or a fixed income
taxpayer if they will object.

Nov. 15 will give this
answer. Let's ask ourselves
— do we really need under-
cover parking? Do we really
need a “substantial park,”
especially along the much-
used Columbia Ave.? Finally,
do we really need a new
municipal hall with a $2M
price tag and a steady in-

crease in taxes? ‘This today,
