Petition/ pans ice sheet plan I’ A PETITION circulating in Terrace is telling city council that residents want a multi-use community centre, not just a stripped down second sheet of ice. City council announced recently it’s hired North Ameri- can Ice Development, a company touted as an expert in arena construction, to redesign the second sheet of ice project at a cost of $200,000, bringing the amount of money spent since 2004 on designs for the yct-to-proceed project to roughly $700,000. Advocates of a larger centre say a facility that will serve a broader cross section of the community is needed: Full Service 7 Days A Week :

“We’re thinking of some gymnasiums, 1 meeting rooms, an indoor track for taxpayers and citizens of Terrace to use and maybe a’fjym work out area and something for seniors,” DOWNTOWN PLAN explains petition proponent John Malo.
