@ Reid Group says all the pieces
are in place for construction to
begin by April 1992

Jonathan Green
NEWS REPORTER

Castlegar is a mld closer to having a
shopping mall, ag:

Developer Sandy iy Reid, of the Yorn:
ver-based Reid Group, said everything
going according to plan and Castlegar
shoppers can look forward to a mall in
late 1

“We eee to start work in April,” he
said, “and open it by the fall.”

But city administrator Gary Williams
thinks Reid is being a little too opti-

mistic.
“So far, all we've received from Mr.

Reid is a hand-drawn sketch,” he said.

Williams said Castlegar is in the pro-
cess of removing restrictive covenants
on the proposed site, which would then
allow the mall to be built.

Once the covenants are lifted, the city
would require a detailed plan from Reid,
a plan that would outline the incoming
services to the site, such as the sewer
and water lines.

After studying the plan, Williams
said the city could then make a final de-
cision on the feasibility of the project.

For some time, it was rumored the
mall would be built at the elliptical site
on Highway 3. But the volume of fast-
moving traffic and poor accessibility led
the Reid Group to opt for a different lo-
cation.

The site has since been switched to

Columbia Avenue across from Blue Top
Burger.

Known as the Southcentre Mall
Shopping Centre, it would occupy some
5,850 square metres (65,000 square
feet), representing an investment of $10
to $12 million.

Reid said he’s anxious to start build-
ing, es ly now that the Celgar ex-
pansion is in full swing

“When we ranted U to start building,
we had to wait for Celgar to get going,”
he said, “Now that Celgar is going, we
can start buildi

Reid said the “mall is already ap~

proaching no Vacancy.

PieWe've got close to a 90 per cent occu- |
pancy raté,” he said. :

Upon completion, the proposed mall
would house some 20 stores.
