Terrace Review — Wednesday, June 1, 1988 19 Concern heard | -on paving plan a TERRACE — The Public Works Committee of Terrace council will be discussing the proposed paving of. Tetrault Ave. between Haugland and Graham with one local resident. Eileen Hoefling addressed coun- cil last week on behalf of her mother, Margaret Olson, and told them she had not signed the petition requesting the project and the cost of repayment would be an unfair burden. . The project calls for upgrading and paving more than 550 lineal feet of Tetrault at an estimated cost of $29,737, The city’s share would be $15,483 while the balance, $14,254 would be paid by the owners of four pieces of property on the street at a rate of $18.37 per frontage foot. One of these pieces of proper- ty is vacant and owned by the ci- ty, but the project received 66 percent support — which means that two of the three other pro- perty owners signed the petition. Those supporting the project and willing to pay were the Muks-Kum-Ol Housing Society and Edward Johnson. If the project were to proceed however, and was paid over 20 years, Johnson would pay only $88.56 per year while Olson would pay $608.50, or a total of $12,170.26. Muks-Kum-Ol Housing would pay $1,208.31 per annum and the city would pay $2,069.60 for its property. The motion to refer the matter to the Public Works Committee and invite Hoefling to attend was made by Ald. Ruth Hallock. Committee chairman, Ald. Bob Cooper, explained that it would be ‘‘easier to explain some of the benefits of the project at the committee meeting.”’ Terrace Esso under new ownership ~— Tony Vincenzi has taken over Terrace Esso at the busy corner of Lakelse Ave. and Emerson St., and he says the station will operate under a philosophy of old-fashioned service. Vincenzi, a former Imperial Oil sales rep from Prince George - with 20 years’ experience in the business, states that Terrace Esso will be a full-service outlet, ‘like the old days — we care about what we’re doing.’ He notes that 70 percent of service station clients are women, ‘‘We want them to feel comfortable about doing business with us, we want them to feel that they’re well cared for.” _ The station will offer a full range of mechanical services under the direction of Fred Doll, who used to be the service manager at the Terrace K-Mart auto center. Vincenzi says that with a staff of 10 and.a variety of tools and machinery, ‘‘We’re equipped to do anything.’’ Vincenzi is no stranger to Ter- race, having worked the North- | west as part of his sales route for Imperial. “I like Terrace, I always have,”’ he said. Vincenzi’s wife, a school teacher in Prince George, and his three teenage sons will be joining him here later during the summer. Terrace Esso will be open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 1] p.m. and Vincenzi expects to be competitive, saying he’ll offer full-service fuel sales at self-serve prices.

The accident occurred while city crews were doing street repairs behind the Mohawk gas station and the city vehicle, attempting to make a left turn, had to stop for another vehicle. The bus driver first swerved to the right to- avold a collision, but due to the soft shoulder in the work area swung to the left and clipped the rear of the flatdeck truck, There was no damage to the truck, but damage to the bus was estimated by RCMP at $2,000. There were no passengers on the bus. Action for Enterprise — isfor everyone ~ whois in business, or should be in business. Up-to-the-minute business infor- f FE ge mation is worth its weight in gold.
