T E R R A C E - - Householders liv- ing near the 4900 block Park Ave. will be-pleased to hear of plans to close the Highway's maintenance shop there, but it may be a while before anything happens. Mike Zylicz, manager of North Coast Road Mainte- nance, says their long range plans include the construction of a' new maintenanceshop near the intersection of Hwy. 16 and the Copper River logging road, hut there are several hurdles to cross first.

First, the B.C. Buildings Cor- poration, the owner of the pres- ent Park Ave. site, has to agree

Band's gravel operation, is not a concern according to Zylicz. He says that the reject from Kitsum:} ~ kalum's railway ballast rock op- eration is uniquei "It ,s a very specialized product,-" he says , "A product you ~an't get any- where else."

The regional district has ta- bled, the rezoning request and invited Zylicz to next month's meeting to more fully explain the proposal. And he says that hg hopes that all concerns can be dealt with at that time because

Fish issues to be examined ,n depth

The Kitimat-Stikine Regional District's submission to the Min- istry of Environment's Recrea- tion Fisheries Branch in re- sponse to a discussion paper, "A New Approach to Guide Angling Manage~hent", is still one of controversy. At the board's March meeting, the pri. ority given to various users of the fishery resource ~ caused con- siderable debate.

The board agreed on an amendment that called for fed- eral and provincial authorities to work together, but a motion made by Kitimat director Chee Ling, that would have recog- nized the sports fisherman as an equal to commercial and Native users, was defeated. According to Ling, his motion would have "eliminated the notion that the sport fishing sector is the lowest priority".

Hazelton director Gordon S e -

This new co= JONSERED'~ told-section (

bastion was disturbed by Ling's thinking, however, and he made another motion at last week- end's meeting that was adopted by the balance of the board. The: regional district will form a sub- committee on fisheries policy that will seek more local input, deal directly with fishery issues, and make recommendations to the board.

Acc0rOng to Sebastion, fish- ery issues are a "i~ot item" and the board has been making deci, sions with too little first hand knowledge. He pointed out that on their recent submission to the Ministry of Environment they had input from local guide/out- fitters but other users were left out. "We should contact all parties before we make any deci- sions," he said. "Different in- terestgroups should be in- volved."

Stikine has to approve a rezon- ing application for the Copper River site. He says that as far as BCBC is concerned, however, they do agree that the Park Ave. shop is in the wrong location and they may be cooperative.

But the regional district may be more difficult to convince. At last weekend's meeting, board directors brought up several concerns. - Among these, en- vironmental concerns due to the

• proximityof.the proposed site to the Copper River and the prox- imity to IOtselas reserve lands have yet to be dealt with.

About an hour later, the Thornhill Fire Department and Ministry of Forests were called into action when a brush fire was started by children playing with matches about 30 meters from the east end of• Ord Road. Fire Department spokesperson Billie Hoving says the fire took hold quickly and could have easily burned out of control. She warns that brush is often much drier than it looks, and parents are asked to both educate and supervise their children about the danger of fire;

Economic development officer hired by city

• TERRACE - - The city has hired Peter M0nteith, 33, to fill the position of Tourism and Eco- nomic Development Officer. According to Mayor Jack Tal- stra, Monteith's job will be to liaise with the community and identify areas where improve- ments can be made.

"This is the best thing that's h=ippened to our community in a number of years," says Talstra. "We want to expand our tax base and we can only do that by getting out there and hustling." He said the 1989 budget includes $ l 15,000 for tourism promotion and $80,000 for economic devel- opment. This is about double

last years' budget, he says.

'Monteith will be moving to Terrace with his wife and two children 'in early May and start work on May 23. His work experience includes economic developme'nt f o r Brandon, Man., where he-ma~iaged a half million doll~ annual budget and supervised a parking study, downtown marketing study and a revitalization plan for 452 downtown businesses. Adminis- trator Bob Hallsor says Mon- tieth and his wife have visited Terrace and like it. "They're looking forward to the move," he said.

What to do with the pool? It Was decided a few years ago that the weightlifting room was too small, the roof needed repairs, and the design in general needed some polish. So a plan to • upgrade the facility was devised i n 1985 and a price tag of $400,000 Was "grabbed out of the air" in order to apply for an Expo Legacy grant.

Unfortunately, there are too many 'company men' around to even hope that Exxon might do anything that is less than completely self-serving. I can imagine the damage control meetings that have been going on lately, and I don't think they're talking about damage to the Alaskan shoreline. Some hotshot MBA will come up with a dazzling ~vay of minimizing Exxon's liability in the affair and probably wind. up as a senior corporate vice- president.

Liberals tend to have prob- lems deciding Where they stand on any issue at the best o f times, so the Grindstone meeting isn't too surprising. But for a Scored government to out-NDP the NDP, and for Mike, Harcourt to come~out ..... pro,business? Obviously, the provincial parties have come to realize that there's more to politics than just playing to your hard-core supporters.

• Locally: instead of insisting that some of •the City govern- ment clerical staff take : accounting upgrading courses, or that the Treasurer +devote some time to staff training, Council has opted to hire a Deputy Treasurer. If they can find someone reasonably com- petent in the $30,000 range, that's six bucks extra taxes I 'm paying, for a 15osition that wouldn't have to be Idled if the right people were in the right places.

On the good side, Council did reluctantly decide to fund a manager position for Heritage Park. Like many other good ideas, the Park started out as a strictly volunteer Qperation and soon became too successful. It's too bad it couldn't have paid its own way, but Heritage Park has become a key tourist attraction and perhaps it's time the City (you and me) kicked in a few dollars. The problem here, and it's been experienced by other volunteer organiza- tions like Youth Soccer and the Bandshell group, isthat it took so long for Council to commit the funding. You could sense the frustration developing while the Park people were waiting to see if in fact they would get any money. ,amd this from a Council that campaigned against 'the Committee shuffle'. • Aren't you glad there's hockey?:.As the only columnist in Canada who even remotely suggested the Canucks might

go six games against the Flames, I 'm feeling pretty cocky! I expect to see at least • six Trevors enrolling in each Grade 1 Class in 1995, just as 1974 saw kindergarte.ns full of : Dereks. What the Canucks have never had, a superstar, i~ has ~uTived.

But you saw the game.., it's already being touted as one of the Classics of all time• Except - for Mike Vernon and some goal posts, the Canucks would still be playing. But in defeat, they rose so far above the ex- pectations.of the public that you have to go back to Paul Henderson and the first Rus- sian series to find the intensity that went into that final over- time period. Maybe the Flames are a better team, and maybe this is the way it had to be, but I couldn't help feeling just a little satisfied, a little proud and a little happier with the way Vancouver performed: A class act. • Regional politicians went a little crazy over the announce- ment of a 6,000 job steel mill last week, with justification even if they were premature. Although it may have been a trial balloon, the chance that B.C. is even being considered makes the Northwest a poten- tial site - - relative isolation and access to tidewater as well as a rail line from the coal fields certainly don't hurt our chances.

On the subject of premature, don't expect to see a cheque right away from GO BC for either the wading pool or the gymnastics club. From what I can gather, GO BC and Expo Legacy monies can't overlap -- there goes the pool. Also, ..... there's a big difference between having an application accepted and having funds approved, a technicality that seems to have been overlooked. Of course, political decisions can override policy. But don't hold your ::~ breath - • ::~

It appears that Mr. Jackman missed his April Fools' Day deadlinebecause that is certainly where his April 12 Perspective belonged. Personally, I think it would have been a safer bet for Mr. Jackman to predict the Canucks winning the Stanley Cup.

Take some advice, Bob, and write about what you do know. It's obvious you have no idea of Jim Fulton's dedication to his constituency. For you to suggest Mr. Fulton "... is probably get- ting tired of crossing the country and flying into places like Hartley Bay..." shows you

couldn't, possibly understand why he sought re:election in Skeena. I find it laughable that you suggest Mr. Fulton would run against Dave Parker - - there wouldn't even be a race, just ask Mr. Halvorson. Be advised, Mr. Jackman, that over the years, Mr. Fulton has tamed many a tiger and one more the likes of Fletcher Challenge doesn't frighten him.

Not usually being one to create rumors to fill space, I'd like to forecast the following: Mr. Jackman will re-enter the political arena and the Toronto Blue Jays will win the World Series. Remember, you read it here first.

The way I see t t . . .

by s tePhsn le Wlebe

::!!Wanna hear something dumb? The •City of Terrace has decided that 80 three- and four- year, olds gathered together with a qualified teacher, in a classroom setting does not con- stitute a school.

This has come about because of traffic congestion at Netty Olson's Preschool at Eby Street and Loen Avenue. Netty and the parents would like a sign erected to wfirnmotorists that there is a preschool near- by; and to please be Cautious. They're not letting • preschoolers wander about the streets un- accompanied; they simply want a sign to notify drivers that there are small children in the area. A reasonable request.

But the city says that Hetty Olson's is not a "school", and therefore, cannot have a !'school zone" sign erected. So Mrs. Olson has asked for a cautionary sign, armouncing that there are small children playing nearby, The official reply was that parents should compose ~ aletter, Stating the reasons for wanting the sign. Then council would be ap- proached witli the concerns, Consider the request, and Possibly take appropriate ac- tion. Evidently, even this cau- tionary sign would beta dubious possibility, since Eby Street is a main thoroughfare,

a n d itraffic is considered too heavy for such a restraint.

I 'm sorry, but I find it hard to believe that the¢ity needs to have us notify them of our reasons for wanting such a • sign,: What do they think? -That we like the decorative effect it Would create on the street? Thatwe feel it would create . more shade in the summer, and give passing motorists some- thing to read for entertain-

ment? That we can't think of . any wayto spend ~axdoilars other than unnecCessary sign erection? "

Maybe sarcasm is not the way to get a sign erected, but I cannot believe the bureaucracy involved in something like this. Hetty Olson has done so much for my child in the last two years. She has taught my child to write her name, to count and recognize colors, to share with others, to know traffi~ rules, to plant seeds, clean up after herself, care for a pet, and wear boots in the rain. She has encouraged generosity, co-- operation, consideration, kind-

ness, and fair play. Yet her institution is not rec-

ognized as a "school". Many children cross Eby

Street, unaccompanied, from the various schools in the area.

' Traffic is often slowed or stop- ped by crossing children. I didn't realize that the city con- siders motor traffic more im- portant than pedestrians. No • wonder that poor_inan was r u n over on Lakelse ~,e . not so 10ng ago. He should've known better than to impede traffic on a major roadway.:

By the time this sign gets ::. 'through tile red tape,of coun- '" cil, if it does, my 'child will no longer be in Hetty Olson's (par- don the expression) school . She'll be in a recognized public school, where there's no prob- lem getting cautionary road signs erected. But what about the other three- and four-year- olds still attending Hetty's? Well, you can gun your engines as you d~ive past, and don't even look to see if one of the little tykes has escaped.

Those children should be in a properl school anyway.

Ambulance feesriSe The fee• charged to B.C

~residents for a basic ambulance call (less than ~ kilometers) has been raised t0 $37 from $35, Health Minister, Peter Dueck an. nounced recently.

Other fees,-~for additional mileage after~the first 40 kilometers, ~ for non-resident users, and ~ for stand-by am- bulances have::alsobeen raised.

Dueck said the raises, •which took effect April 1, will main- taln the Emergency Health Ser' vices Commiss ion ' s cost recovery level at about 15 per- cent of the actual real cost of B.C,'s ambulance service.

"The real average cost to tax- payers for an ambulance call in B.C . is about $305," said Dueck. "The relatively modest fees •which the Commission endeavors to recover pay for on- ly a small part of total operating COSts,"

They grew• UP to be one of the ugliest people in the village. Everybody was scared of them, except for Gorrila, who was the most powerful person in the country. • When Gear and Thoar heard of his.might, they decided that they were going to destroy him. And so they semched far | and wide. Finally, they •found

him. For he had entered the Main Event in a nearby town. Gear and Thoar signed up im- mediately for the fight which was to take place on Friday.

The day came sooner then ex- pected. Nevertheless, they were ready to enter the ring with the giant. The bell rang and the fight was on. Only two minutes into the fight the giant gave them such a beating that he almost wasted them. Lucky for Gear and Thoar, Thoar was able to land a knuckle punch at the giant's rib cage, which sent him to the canvas. Immediately the two terrors pinned him to the floor and the match was over. The crowd cheered wildly .

After receiving such a beating by two mere boys, the giant felt embarassed and moved away. The boys in turn, were named "The Invincible Babarians".

My Monster . . . . ::~:,~.., by Tim Norman

One day, when I was about 6 years old, a huge spaceship land- ed in the bushes behind my house. I proceeded to investigate what the spaceship looked like.

• But when• I got about 20 feet 'away from the spaceship, a very big door opened, and a big monster walked out of the spaceship and looked around. He looked at my house and then he looked in the window of my mom's shop. My morn looked at the monster for a couple of sec- onds and then she fainted. I woke her up with a bucket of cold water. Then I took my dad's axe and I was going to kill the monster, but the monster just didn't want to fight me.

In view of this, I put the axe back, but I kept a pellet gun handy just in case~ Finally, I asked him what he-was doing here. He said that he was look- ing for a friend. " I will be your friend," I answered.

Next, I proceeded to find him a home. After a long search I finally located a home for him in the woods. Needless to say, we saw each other quite often after that.

The five bouts involving Ter- race and Prince Rupert fighters were worth the admission despite l e s s - t h a n - a d e q u a t e facilities.

The opener featured two local youngsters - - Joey Losier (95 lbs.) and Todd Hawryluk (108 lbs.). The rookies went three one-minute rounds with Losier winning on a split decision.

Bout two had two more Ter- race boxers in action. Jassy Gill (I 19~A lbs.) took on Clint Nadea (117 lbs.) for three • rounds of one-and-a-half minutes each. Gill got the decision on this one.

The next scheduled bout had local coach GarY Lok lined up for an exhibition matchagainst Prince Rupert's Steve Jaeger,

knockout of the evening. Ter- race's Dave Carson (205 lbs.) produced the K-O against Rupert's Dave Long (1961bs,) in the first round.

For the second-to-last fight, Jassy Gill came back to face cluhmate Darren Bell (119~A lbs.). It was another split deci- sion victory for Gill.

The main event had three two- minute rounds with Terrace's Marcus Bernaldez (160Vz Ibs.) facing Brent Daschuck (165 lbs.) of Rupert. Bernaldez outscored Daschuck on a split decision.

Coach Lok said later they're planning a major card for this coming fall with hopes of

• attracting top boxers from several B.C. clubs.

ptaise L s c h o o l badminton coach

R~be~rt Cooper had nothing but praise for his B.C, ruw nerup team with they arrived home April 9 from the B.C, championships at Langley.

"They won every m~/tch fight up to the finalsand we were in it right to the end against the even- tual winners," he told us after stepping off the plane.

" I 'm very proud to be their coach. They played extremely well - - everybody was so ex- Cited."

Cooper was lavish with his praise for the help of thers.

"Credit has to go to the junior high schools as well. We get a lot of credit at Caledonia, but Skeena and Thornhill deserved just as much for their initial training. Without their help, we wouldn't have got this far."

Cooper pointed out it Was the best that Caledonia had ever done in badminton.

"In the past five years, we've placed second, fourth and sixth, and also had a couple of plac- ings in the low teens. That's five years in a row we've been down there, and that says a lot for the badminton program in the Ter- race area.' '

The coach told us that the local badminton club had made a major contribution towards the school team's success.

,'The adult club has been very supportive financially as well as in some of the instruction by af- fording us some competition. • "Our locals took up the slack

when we had problems with Prince George cancelling out on

tournament. Financially we couldn't afford a trip to a Van- couver tournament, thus we took up the club's offer of Com- petition."

He expected the team to place in the top eight out of 16 teams, He had been asked to make a prediction prior to the finals, but refused Saying. he didn't feel it was fair to the students by put- ting them on the spot.

"I did feel top eight was realistic and top four was possi- ble. Beyond that it was a matter of how well they played at the right time,"

And how about next season? "We have four girls coming

back next year. They're very strong players. We also have two regulars back among the boys. Counting players not selected for the team, but experienced this season, another top eight showing is very possible."

Cooper concluded by praising all coaches in the area for doing superb work.

: The l l t h annual school 'milk run ' is coming up Wednesday, April 26, and Caledonia senior high hopes to better their third- place standing fr0m last year.

The milk run, co-sponsored by B.C, School Sports and the B,C. Dairy Foundation, is sup- porting the B.C. Lions Society for Crippled Children for the second straight year.

Spectacular season for 'AAA' teams

The second.best team In B.C. high school badminton was honored by students, friends, parents and teachers at a special assembly held the day after the teens arrived back from B.C. finals. They're shown with coach Robert Cooper and medals they won for a runnerup finish.

Cal athletes: best in B.C.?

r

"Our athletic record this season could mean' we're the best triple 'AAA' •school in the province."

These were principal Bill Sturn's words after learning last week that his Caledonia Ker- mode badminton team had finished second best in B.C.

"The accomplishments of the senior mixed badminton team from Caledonia is the best a badminton team has ever done from our area, and it equals the showing• of Cai's senior boys' volleyball team last fall when they finished runnerup.

"In the 20-year history of Caledonia, it's just outstanding to achieve this in a single year. In my view, looking around the

province in high school sports, it's very seldom if ever that a school places two different sports in medals.

"We're gong to take a look at it, but to me I think Cal would have to he the outstanding triple 'AAA' school this year in athletics," Sturn told us.

He plans to look into this a the end of the school year.

One thing is certain graduating student Garnet Hidber puts his name in the school's history book twice. Not only was Hidber on the badmin- ton team, he was also u member of the boys' volleyball team that placed second - - and he was a provincial nil-star in the volley game.

Caledonia Kermode badminton coach Robert Cooper was recipient of the Sherry Anderson Plaque for appreciation of service to the sport in Terrace. Dan Tuomi of the Terrace club made the presentation during a school assembly honoring Terrace's second-place Kermode team at the B.C. f ina ls .

Milk run benefit set for 'local,, s choo l s next week

a s well as contributing a desig- nated fee of $1 each. At the end of the event, each participant receives a carton of milk.

This year's theme is "every- one helping one another".

Caledonia school teacher Lin- da Black told us they hope to get 400 - 500 students and up to mark this year. three-quarters of the teaching staff to take part.

"We're also collecting money from each class in a three, day competition to raise funds," she said. ;'Last year our third-place

overall resulted in B.C. School Sports giving us a special award on a basis of most money raised per participant. We raised an average o f $1.80 per person. This added:up to more than $600."

Black feels they'll top that

"We're spicing it up by dona- tions from local businesses to give out as prizes to first, second and third-place classes, and top male and female runners."

lege recreation coordinator, Kim I Cordiero; was a little worse for wear during the running of the first ever NWCC Laff Olympics, but it was nothing compared tO her condition following the un- scheduled Jello and whipped cream fight that took place after the event. She didn't seem to mind though. It was a lot of fun

and it certainly seemed to do something to ease the pre-exam tension felt by students.

The event began with red- faced students performing be- fore a moderately sized group of fans. The first events included a paper-clip search, and dribbling . a football, not a soccer ball, through pylons - - something that's just as difficult as it

The winners! This rather rowdy group of students With questionable athletic skills slipped into first place to win the coveted Laff Olympics "Funnybone Trophy". Above, Doug Boyd (right)was unaware of ' the undignified behavior of his mates as he received the trophy from recreation coordinator Kirn Cordeiro. Boyd's teammates, identified here as a community Service, are (from left) Mary Titchener, Wayne Kuechle (being crowned by the competition's Steve Grant), and Gary Strachan.

Flye bdgade These even!s:~ere followed by

the "FireBngade'" and it was ~here that the lack of any sort of rules became evident. ~The first team through did well passing styrafoam cups down the line to empty one bucket into another, but they apparently felt it was too easy and the following team should have a handicap. While the following team was still en- grossed in the paper Clip search, they quietly moved the two buckets about 20 feet further apart.

Mummy wrap

The next event was the "Mummy Wrap". The idea here was to see how many members each team could wrap in toilet paper in three minutes. This looked easy at first glance, but it wasn't. It was those ~.* per- forations - - the paper kept breaking and they had to start over, and over, and over...

With the conclusion of the Silly Circuit, teams moved onto the Obstagiggle Course. In this relay event individual team members had to dive through a cardboard tunnel, do six dis- orienting circles at the Bat Spin, make a rather dizzy run to four chairs with bruise inflicting arms and sit in each sequentially, hop

• about 30 feet with a soccer ball between the knees (several were holding their bruised posterior by this time in the race), and then stick their faces into pans of whipped cream and Jello to dunk for plastic whistles.

The event ended (the real event - - before the Jello fight) with the Helium Balloon. Here everyone got to inhale a large dose of helium and then say, ,'Peter Piper picked a peck of pickles", as fast as they could. Needless to say, everyone s q u ~ e d through this event,

Dunking for whistles during the Laf! Olympics Obstagiggle Race was a little messy, but it didn t taste half bad. NWCC student Joe Droll gave his all in this event, but it Just wasn't quite enough to beat the competition.

.... ;Negotiations between the B.C. Nurses' Union arid the Heal th Labour Relations Association continue to move at a slow pace, but the nurses are n0tyet considering job action.

The previous contract be- tween t h e 142 hospitals and heal th care ins t i tu t ions represented by theHLRA and the 17,000 BCNU members who workin them expired March 31. The nurses opened with stiff wage increase demands and a call for greater control over working conditions, setting the stage for lengthy bargaining.

:Ursula Althaus, the BCNU rep for the Terrace area, says Mills Memorial Hospital. has escaped up to now the staff shortages and associated prob- lems that are affecting o~er areas of B.C. The main problem here is lack of casual staff, she said in a recent interview, which creates difficulty when regular nursing staff fall sick or want to take holidays. There are no staff positions vacant at MMH, but bY contrast the Prince Rupert hospital currently has 12 staff positions open;• she said.

-She attributes.the local stabili- ty to good administration at MMH and good living condi-

• flons Withinthecommunity. m a n y B.C. hospitals itisn't un- A more Common scenario in common for nurses towork suc-

the rest of the province involves bed closures and lengthy waits for patients, for which Althaus blames lack of nurses. A number of beds .were :.cldsed in Van- couver's Children's Hospital recently, a n d . the hospital ad- ministrator said the action was taken because ,there Weren't enough nurses to go around.

Althaus says the shortage is due to non-competitive wages relative to the rest of Canada and the fact that B.C. univer- sities don't train enough nurses, forcing its hospitals to rely on recruiting staff from other parts of Canada.

Mills Memorial doesn't operate :in isolation, however. Althaus noted that bed closures in VancoUver hospitals create a bacldog Of transfer patients here, and there have been in- stances over the past year of local patients being transferred to facilities in Edmonton.

Although nurses are calling for a 33 percent wage increase, Althans says a greater concern in the negotiations is a professional responsibility clause that would clearly spell out control over working conditions. She says in

• The so r t of professional responsibility clause the BCNU is seeking would i~rovide specific protection from those kinds of working conditions and allow for independent arbitration in • the event of a disagreement.

Gordon Austin, director for the HLRA, said last week the two sides are continuing to talk but there have been no major

- breakthroughs. Austin Said the HLRA has costed out the total BCNU package originally put on the table at about a 100 percent increase, but over the course of negotiations that figure has gone down to about 75 percent. When asked to convert the increase in- to a dollar value, Austin replied, "Figures of that magnitude are

Tenajon ready to drill oTenajon Resources is prep•r- mine, recently released the

;ing to launch a major expl0ra: "results of preliminary drilling tion program on a gold and done in 1988 on four zones on

the SB property. SB lies west of Westmin's Big

Missouri mine, scheduled t o start producing this year, and about 30 kilometers north of

Stewart. Tenajon president Don MacLeod said the exploration program to date involved 15 surface drill holes in the Kansas zone, 36 underground holes in, the Face Cut/35 zone; two surface holes in the West, Kansas zone and four surface holesin the Anomaly zone. The latter two zones are the most recently explored, and MacLeod expects the 1989 drilling pro- gram to concentrate on those zones. Results of the 1988 drill- ing include a 20-foot intercept grading 2.749 ounces of gold per ton.

Current estimates by Esso Minerals, a 50-percent joint ven- ture partner in the property, place probable and possible re- serves on the Kansa~ and Face Cut/35 zones at 308,000 tons of ore grading an average of . 5 0 5 ounces of gold per ton.

MacLeod said details of the 1989 exploration program will be announced when the com- pany's budget gets alsprovai.

Home owner grant rises

Revisions to the education funding formula to reduce the impact of rising assessments were announced recently bY Education Minister Tony Brum- met.

These changes are in addition to the changes announced in the March 30th provincial budget by Finance and Corporate Rela- tions Minister Mel Couvelier, which increased the home owner grant for 1989.

The standard home owner grant will increase by $50 - - from $380 to $430 - - for 1989. Homeowners who are 65 or over, disabled, or recipients of a war veteran's allowance, will have their grant increased by $70 - - from $630 to $700 -- for 1989.

Rising property values in some areas have produced the likelihood of increased variation in school taxes between districts. To limit this variation, the pro- vincial base grant has been in- creased from 5 5 to 57 percent of the shareable portion of school district budgets.

The effect of the grant for- mula changes will vary from district to district. Actual taxes will not be known until school boards adopt their budget bylaws on or before May i.

Starting a service business - -par t I!

A service business is like any other business, in that it must be well planned,

' adequately financed and carefully managed to be successful.

It may be a relatively short step from (for example) doing your own household repairs to doing them full-time for others: But if the step is to be taken suc, cessfully, it must be taken in a business- like way.

by Phil Harti, Start by Calculating the costs. How Manager, Terrace much is needed for capital expenditures Federal Business such as office furniture, improvements

Development Bank to the premises and tools? How much more is needed for opening costs, such

as a vehicle and gas, insurance, professional fees, rent, advertis- • ins and so on? Because there are almost always unexpected costs, add 20 percent for those contingencies,

Then you should have a reserve fund of at least three tO six months of overhead costs and salaries to cover the possible lack of adequate cash flow during the initial period.

Consider now how much your business will earn. Start with the revenue from the sale of merchandise. If you are doing household repairs, the merchandise could be wood, paint and plaster i Add to the sale of merchandise what you expect to realize from the sale of your time and skills. From this total revenue, deduct the cost of merchandise.

Then total your operating costs -- rent, telephone, vehicle and so on -- and deduct them. The balance will represent your

operating income and the measure of how profitable your business will be.

Before you can make such calculations with any degree of ac- curacy, you must first establish just how much demand there will be for your service. Will it be strong enough to keep you fully employed? What about the competition? How does it compare in quality of service and pricing?

The answers to these and rel~ttedquestions may cause you to revise your plans. If there is active competition in your area, maybeyou should locate elsewhere, or possibly you could take on additional merchandise to supplement your service income. Your inquiries may also reveal an unexpected need for specializa-

~ tion or a segment of the market which has not yet been tapped. If your preliminary planning is comprehensive, YOU should

, know whether it will pay to take the-step of turning a domestic or part-fime occupation into a full-time business. You will also know what the costs are and what you might to do reduce them

• if they appear excessive, what your revenues will be, and what you might do to increase them.

What remains, if you take the step, is to assure that you manage your business within the scope of your projections: If you incur unexpected, costs, you must find compensating in- creases in revenues. Having a detailed plan and keeping to it are as important to a successful service business as to any other, •

Tytaneck also noted that the port corporation is currently seeking expressions of interest for developing the recently demolished Westview. terminal. • Tytaneck acknowledged that

he takes some ribbingabout his name and the fact that he's in- volved in a maritime career. But he noted that there's another connection: ."The port's coming of age, and I believe we're fulfilling the dream of Charles Hayes, carrying on his vision for Prince Rupert."

Hayes, who was responsible for making Prince Rupert the terminal for the Grand Trunk Pacific RailWay and imagined the port as rivalling Vancouver, was one of the 1,500 people who

cause of their responsibilities for post secondary education and their involvement in regional economic development.

"The membership of the planning group reflects the gov: ernment's commitment to create a degree-granting institution in and for the North," says Hagen, "giving consideration to the re- gion's economic, social and cul- tural requirements as well as the need for academic quality and degree credibiltity."

Bruce Strachan, MLA for Prince George South adds that, "A northern institution must help meet the needs of the north for highly skilled workers and professionals. It must address economic development needs, accommodate the conditions of life in the north and provide an infras t ructure for quali ty growth."

According to Hagen, the planning group has been asked to consider alternative models for a northern institution and to report on the anticipated bene- fits, costs and risks of each. He says they will then select a pre- ferred model and develop a pro- posed implementation plan and time table.

Fire season " " s Contributed by Earl Holt The 1989 fire season officially

began On April 15. With that in mind, the Forest

Service would fiketo remind the public that burning permits are required as of April 15. Burning permits in the Kalum Forest District can be obtained from the District Office in Terrace or the Field Office in Stewart. The Terrace District Office is located on the second floor in the B.C. Hydro building on Keith Avenue. People living within the municipalities of Terrace, Kitimat or Stewart should ob-' tain their burning permits th rough their respect ive municipal offices of fire depart- ments.

Burning permits are an impor- tant administrative tool that is used by both Forest Service and Fire Departments. Burning per- mits enable the Forest Service and Fire Departments to keep track of where fires are burning, thus avoiding unnecessary responses to unknown fires. Burning permits also give Forest

Service and Fire Departments an opportunity to put in written conditions and give verba!ad-~ vice to permittees ~on how they can safely carry out their burn- ing ~. In addition, it should be noted that if burning is carried out in accordance with the con- ditions of the permit, the per- mittee is only liable for the con-. dition of the permit. If a fire starts as a result of burning without a permit, the person fighting the fire can be held responsible for all costs resulting from the fire.

Permits are not required for campfires. Anyone lighting a campfire should ensure that the fire is located a reasonable distance from trees 9r other in-
