The sum
below might include Airport contract – or not |
|
The upcoming
July 6th Council meeting will probably get little public attention
–but the annual report is supposed to be one time Citizens can grill staff/
council on plans and achievements – maybe that is why chose July 6th?

Cruise Ships
and 3rd Avenue |
|
When
I was downtown – 3rd Avenue was dead – but Cow Bay seemed bustling
with passengers – even the trail out to Rushbrook was being used --- perhaps
need review ‘farmers market’ concept etc on 3rd |
|
|
More
businesses closing |
|
|
While
clean up might be welcomed – still the office was recently closed as even the
lawyers can’t find enough business to stay in town 
|
|
Rushbrook
seems to be doing well |
|
Most
the out of town vehicles appeared to have bought parking tickets and be displaying
them in window – a few were not – but looks like B-Law officer had been by at
least the day before --- But this truck remains even after ticket given –
perhaps should be towed as I suspect will never pay – even the boat trailer
had no licence plate on it |

Review of
‘Parking Problem’ downtown as a special
interests with links |
|
|
It
was good to see the DFO presence down on floats ‘inspecting’ sporties as they
arrived back after day of fishing --- checking for licences and catch --- I
was told these bags of fish were legal Last
year there was a ‘voluntary questionnaire’ – which numerous ‘highliners’
ignored --- now that DFO present they are more ‘co-operative’ – and I did not
see the large number halibut as last year |

An
over view from 2007 with links of Rushbrook
parking – now solved And
here when start up problems over
meters with links etc Here
where Charter boat won’t answer any
catch questions |

Tsimshian
Access Road needs more scrutiny – when looked at elarlier a road connection
was seen as too expensive – in meantime Feds have paid for raods to Nisgaa
villages --- but I suspect another model (>use and integration of ferries)
is the better way to go post 2008 (more later) |
Airport
Ferry |
|
A
new manager being hired at Airport, a new committee in place – still I would
argue the airport ferry needs serious attention – we practically give the
airlines all the service they want – and hope the difference will be made up
with increased number passengers – not likely after recession late 2008 set
in |

More later |
