Page 2, Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, March 5, 1986 Council makes recommendations to government on SOP's Terrace Bay Township Council passed a motion at its regular meeting on February 24 which Reeve Ollie Chapman.feels is pro- bably the last word on the entire high school auditorium closing issue, at least until the Provincial Government responds to the recommendations in the motion. Reeve Chapman had drafted a rough form for the motion and presented it to Councillors at the meeting, not expecting the motion to come to a vote that evening. However, clerk co-ordinator Larry Simons pointed out that it might be a good idea to get the motion on the agenda at the upcoming Thunder Bay District Municipal League annual convention. That meeting is scheduled for March 7 and 8. "'The sooner you can get this through, the better,"' Simons said. Although Reeve. Chap- man agreed, she added that she didn't want to hurry the Councillors on the motion. In Memorium cards available from Anna McKie 825-3840 Hazel Lang 825-3605 She had originally planned to have it read and voted on at the next Council meeting, set for March 10. After Councillors had a chance to read and com- ment on the motion, it was put to a vote and then car- ried. A copy of the motion will be sent to the Municipal League and Queen's Park. The resolution read in part that "The current Special Occasion Permit transfers from the in- dividual the responsibility for...safety and sobriety to both the manager of the hall and the hall owner in addition to the permit holder."' It added that "in small communities, the municipality and/or school board own the only facili- ty capable of supporting larger social events (but) municipalities and boards of education are experien- cing difficulty in accessing liability insurance."' The entire matter began earlier this year when the Lake Superior Board of Education voted to close its schools to all events licenc- ed for the sale of alcohol due to the problem of liability. Reeve Chapman noted that the vote was unanimous, meaning that all four Terrace Bay trustees were in favour of the motion. '"*But they are also prepared to support our resolution," she added during the Council meeting. "Now I guess we'll just play the waiting tre ; nA SS 2 Deiat Os Se THANK YOU We would like to thank Dr. Bailey and all of the Nursing Staff of the McCausland Hospital for the excellent care during our recent stay. Thanks again! Eric & Donna Theriault | To our skip who | could deliver hot tea at 5:30 a.m. but couldn't deliver her rocks. '*Tomorrow tomorrow' Thanks Ist & 2nd game."' Simons suggested that the board would probably not change its mind on the gymnasium closing deci- sion until the provincial government changes its mind on the entire liability question as presented in the Special Occasion Permits of the Liquor Licence Board of Ontario. Council asked the government in the motion '*to specify that each in- dividual participant be responsible for his/her own safety; to indicate that the Permit holder share in that responsibility; and to delete all references to third and fourth parties, 1.e. managers and owners." The motion was moved by Land owner questions decision continued from page 1 "Could you give me a reason?" Smilsky asked. "We get a lot of re- quests," Romanuk replied. "We don't have to say 'yes' to everything." "I wasn't here for that meeting, but my opinion is I see no reason why coun- cil did this," Councillor Ziegler said. "This hasn't been done in the past."' Smilsky's application was for part of an adjacent lot to his property which he requires so he can build a garage. The land he has is inadequate for a garage because much of it is on a slope, he explained to the News. 'I'm not ruining that other lot," he told Council. "*You can still build on that lot, but I just don't want to buy all of it."" **You've already got a big lot as it is, as lots go in Terrace Bay," Ramsay pointed out. "Everybody would like to get a chunk of property." "It seems funny to me as nobody has a problem with this except for Council,"' Smilsky responded. 'Everything meets your standards, and the (com- pany) that owns that lot says it's OK.' Kimberly- Clark of Canada owns the lot in question. "'T have to agree with him" Ziegler said. "'I don't see what the big deal is now." 'There have been things that happened before," Backa re...

Attending the Workshop this year were Mary Dashkewytch from St. Martin in Terrace Bay, Edythe Cosgrove of Holy Angels School in Schreiber, Maria Wielgosch of Our Lady of Lourdes School in Manitouwadge, and Betty Lacroix, of the host Holy Saviour School. The ses- sion was conducted by Ghislain Beaupre. The workshop began with keyboard manipula- tion. The secretaries took advantage of the 16 colours of the computer by creating their first painting, in the reverse mode. The main morning ac- tivity was to load programs with different strategies, showing 'that computers can do more than simple word processing. A strategy for the next two workshops was discussed during the lunch break, and the Print Shop program was indroduced in the afternoon session. '"'We feel that this workshop has assisted us to better understand the possibilities of the Com- modore 64 and its Work Shop software," the secretaries said in a joint statement. "The end result of the workshop is also quite an improvement over our first production," they added. Romanuk said. "It's time to start clamping down."' 'I didn't know it would go this far," Smilsky ad- mitted. 'I've already paid for that portion of the lot."' Reeve Chapman asked Smilsky to leave the mat- ter with Council and add- ed that the matter will be brought up again at the next Council meeting. She had declared a conflict. of in- terest at the start of the | discussion on the applica- tion. Councillor Jim Files Cancer can be beaten.

In other council matters, clerk Larry Simons told Council that the township's liability insurance has just about doubled in its price for this year, though he added that the limit of liability has also increased. No specific amounts were mentioned at the meeting. Councillor Jim Ziegler, seconded by Councillor George Ramsay, and sup- ported by Reeve Chapman and Councillor Peter Romanuk. Councillor Jim Files was absent. There has been some concern raised in the com- munity that due to the board's decision, some traditional fund raising events, like the Kinsmen Club's dances, can no longer be held in town. Terrace Bay does not have a Community Hall. Board trustee Gerry Ar- mour was quoted in the February 26 issue of the Marathon Mercury as say- ing the Reeve Chapman has been using the entire issue as a political football to gain support for the building of a community auditorium. weighing 8 Ibs. & Jim Baird Grandparents Proud parents are Elda Holland Baird Robert Daniel Born at Toronto General Hospital are Robert & Dorothy Baird and Louise Holland.
