Walking Tour
|
|
|
A
walking tour booklet that will highlight local architecture history etc and
will sell for about 15$ --- proceeds to help re-roof #1 Pilsbury Place where
the shake shingle roof will cost up to 40T$ --- Thorkelson made a good
suggestion to break the booklet into smaller (and cheaper) pamphlets that
could be purchased by the cruise ship – who might only want to ‘tour’ one
area of town etc |
|
Over ride
staff on shed dimensions |
|
|
I
will return to this as both the planner and the proponent had good presentations
as to why and why not the storage shed/ garage should be built --- it was the
‘rural character’ of property that seemed to sway the day – more later
|
|
Subsidizing the elites Rupert style |
|
|
This
is merely a loan guarantee for 3 years of $40T to purchase 2nd
hand equipment – I have pasted the rationale from the Agenda package --- I am
dubious the criteria met --- is it a city function to provide golfing
equipment to a private club?? – More later

Valerie
Stewart and Ms Haines requested donation to cover the Civic Center costs for
Hobiyee 2010 which was transferred to Rupert last November when realized that
the Kinkolith Hall would not be ready in time for celebration--- Council continued
with its ‘poor is us’ theme and offered 2T$ – more later |
|
|
|
|
Some good
discussions |
|
|
Here
is there web site ---- Council had several
suggestions – Thorkelson arguing commercial fishing economics trumped
up-river ‘sports’ to some thoughtful suggestions by Bedard and Ashley – more
later

|
|
I hear a
near riot here last Saturday night when bars shut down 2:30 AM |
|
Large
crowd and people fighting – but police were able to restore order |
|
|
With a
system moving in Monday night – the exceptional period of clear weather over |

Iconic image
