| Hospital deficit $24,081

Castlegar and District Hospital ended its 1990-91 fiscal year
with an operating deficit of $24,081, less than half the $56,500
deficit of the previous year.

The h ‘efi ial din the annual

report of the Castlegar and District Hospital Society, shows net
othe of $5,305,406 and net operating expendi-
tures of $5,329,487.

The figures for 1989-90 show revenues of $4,862,900 and
expenditures of $4,919,400.
hospital's operating budget covers expenses such as
“ Pate dine) ion, food, mai

wages, ry
linen and laundry, and administration.

Revenue increases last year were primarily due to a 16.6 per
cent increase in lab services for out-patients — $25,904 — and
interest income of $18,983. As well, the Province provided an
additional $32,000 in grants under various hospital programs,
hospital society finance chairman Teena Leitch says in her
report.

Festivals society wants home

The Castlegar Festivals Society — which organizes the annu-
al Sunfest weekend — is looking for a home base and will meet
with Castlegar council to discuss the society's request for help
locating office space and office furniture.

“Society volunteers are now ini the process of applying for
grants and bidding for corporate sponsorships,” society presi-
dent Bill Whitehead says in a letter to council. "Therefore, it
would be a great asset to all involved to have a central base for
all this to be coordinated.”

Offer hard to refuse

An offer of more police officers from the RCMP Proved too
much for Castlegar council to resist Monday.

Council voted to send a letter to RCMP recommending a
vacant position in the icipal bli at the Castle-
gar detachment be filled.

Staff Doug Hall of the Castlegar detachment said last
week in a letter to’touncil the RCMP will Provide “two and pos-
sibly three bers” who leted training June 21 in Regi-

Help difficult to find -

The City of Castlegar is having trouble finding an engineer-
ing technologist “with the particular mix of qualifications” the
city is looking for, director of engi ing Kenn Hample said
Monday.

The city posted the opening and advertised the job and
found one candidate who fit the bill. However, the applicant
withdrew, said Hample, who added that the city is looking for
ne “with good field experience” who can “keep tabs" on

currently underway or
planned in the city.

“Rather than hire someone with lesser qualifications we
decided it would be best to re-advertise the position,” he told
council.

Teachers who invested in a
co-operative that went bankrupt

the B.C. Court of Appeal ruled
Tuesday.

More than 3,400 teachers in

co-op to depart from its mandate
by starting a trust company,
buying raw land and making

gar.

McGauley, a retired Robson
elementary school teacher, said
the group was originally denied
the right to sue as individual
investors because only a compa-
ny has that right under what
she calls B.C.’s “archaic finan-
cial institution laws.”

The Ministry of Forests has
placed a freeze on increases to
timber harvesting levels across
the province but local environ-
mentalists say it won’t have
much effect on try concerns.

“It doesn’t mean anything
from my standpoint,” said Herb
Hammond,owner of Silva
Ecosystem Consultants Ltd. of
Winlaw, an outspoken critic of
forestry practices in B.C.

“I think it’s very good to stop
increasing cuts, but the news I
want to hear is when the gov-

he said Tuesday,

inventory procedures and
resource analysis data,” Rich-
mond said in a news release.

Hammond said forest-indus-
try jobs could easily withstand
decreases in timber harvesting
levels if more labor-intensive
practices were used and mills
diversified.

“The threat of decreased cuts
need not threaten loggers or mill
workers at all,” he said. "We
need to use much more labor-
intensive practices in the forest
from a cutting standpoint, which
means we can easily employ
three to four times the number
of people employed in the forest
right now and cut less tress, and
still be economically competi-
tive.

“And the second part of the
puzzle is value-added manufac-
turing mills,” Hammond added.
“We can employ again at least
the same number of people
milling we employ right now and
cut a quarter of the trees we cut
today. It’s just a matter of doing
something with the wood.”
