Down it goes

Another part of the old Skeenavlew Lodge went for salvage last weekend as members of the
Terrace Kinsmen Club pulled down the 25-metre brick chimney on the site. Kinsmen
volunteers Nathan Waddell (top) and Steve Mcisack (below) wrapped cable and chains
around the top of the stack, and a few moments later, wih the persuasion of a glant-sized
tow truck, the upper section crashed to the ground. Bricks from the chimney were sold as
part of a Kinsmen fund-ralsing project.

Activity begins at
new building site

TERRACE — Excava-
tion and site preparation
began last week at the lot
on Eby St. where the new
Terrace RCMP building
will eventually appear.
Brian Lewis, job
foreman for general con-

tractor Hegge Construc-
tion, said in a recent in-

- terview that he expects to

have the foundation for
the structure poured and
the grade beams laid out
by mid-May.

Some of the anxiety

Work got under way recently at ihe site of tha new Terrace
RCMP building, as loca} tradesmen began assembling
foundation forms. Job foreman Brian Lewis forecasts that
the foundations will be poured and grade beams In place by

mid-May.

over possible labor dif-
ficulties at the site have
been laid to rest by the
contractor’s hiring and
purchasing policies. ‘‘In
spite of some of the gar-
bage that was being said
before this job started,”'

Lewis stated, ‘‘our intent -

is to obtain labor and
materials from local
sources whenever ‘possi-
ble.’’ Lewis evaluated his
crew's performance to
date as ‘‘excellent’’.
John MacCormac,
business agent for the
local Carpenters’ Union,
said, ‘“We’re extremely
happy that they’re hiring
local people. The wage is
nowhere near union rate,

but we’ve got some peo- .

ple here in desperate
situations.’” MacCormac
said that he’s sent two
carpenters to the job so
far, and he expects to
eventually have about six
of his union’s members
employed on the site.
Bruce Ferguson,
spokesman for the Tun-
nel and Rock Workers
local, also expressed
satisfaction. ‘‘We're
quite pleased,’’ Ferguson
said. ‘‘They're using a
union workforce and
coming to us with their
requirements,’‘ Fer-
guson added that his
local has placed three
laborers on the site and
expects further requests

_as the construction pro-

gresses.

Council notes ~

TERRACE .— The
municipality may soon
begin leasing equipment
and operators to the
general public as the
result of a notice of mo-
tion by Ald... Bob
Jackman at the April 14
council meeting.

Jackman noted that
the district owns some
types of equipment, such
as street sweepers, which
are not available through
private sector leasing
operations. The
municipality, he said,
could raise additional
money and provide a
public service at the same
time by making the
equipment, ~ with
operators, available for
rental, The idea will be
put forward as a motion
at the next meeting of
council.

‘Jackman also entered
another notice of motion
at the April 14 meeting
which would have. the
North Central Municipal
Association petition the
Union ‘of B.C,
Municipalities to request
the elimination of all
federal and provincial
taxes on gasoline, with a
suggestion that the
governments find ‘‘less
discriminatory alter-
native revenue sources’,
