Since August, Vauxhall had paid about $28,000 in interest payments on loans to finance the project, said Mrs.

Sierstad. The program was announced last year and estimates for the 1980-81 fiscal year were about $22 million, said Tom Thackeray, executive assistant to environment minister Jack Cookson. In October, special warrants of an additional $46.5 million from the treasury department were approved, he said. A government cheque for $1.4 million has released the town of Vauxhall from interest payments of $400 a day. Town administrator Ann Sierstad said Tuesday the cheque was received recently.

It covered 80 per cent of the costs of a reservoir and water treatment plant. The southern Alberta town with a population of 1,000, had taken part in a provincial grant program offering 90 per pent of the capital costs of sewer and water projects. But because too many municipalities took advantage of the program, the government had to Steve Chan, student: I like to be open and Karen Dellar, sales clerk: Mostly.

I'm very frank. Mill said. In addition to a new city hall, the $18-million is to include a library, museum, auditorium and craft centre. Between $2 million and $5 million is to be raised through grants, land sales and private fund-raising schemes. Aid.

Rod Throndson told council it is important the city continue long-term planning, despite the possibility of annexation. Although original ST. ALBERT A bylaw authorizing the city to borrow $16.3 million for construction of a new city hall and cultural centre passed first reading Monday. Aldermen Roger Ay-otte and Louise Beland opposed the bylaw, criticizing the proposal as too expensive and too extravagant. "Although I feel the facilities are desperately needed, I feel this is much too elaborate a building." Aid.

Ayotte George Inman, technician: Yes. I usually tell the truth. Estelle Henry, sales clerk: I'll say whatever I think.

A move to reopen debate on a proposed bypass west of the city was quashed Monday. Aid. Roger Ayotte failed to win enough support to have city council reconsider a petition supporting the bypass. Only Aldermen Ayotte and Louise Beland supported the move. Approval by five of seven council members was needed for a new debate.

The petition supported an immediate halt to improvements to the St. Albert Trail and a start on construction of the bypass instead. The first of four phases of construction on the Trail project was finished in October. The petition was presented in September, but the previous council refused to accept it. Aid.

Ayotte argued the city had ignored the wishes of petition supporters and had used a technicality to justify doing nothing. Others, however, said the city has already spent long enough debating the bypass. mart After Sale Price 24.77 6-piece 'Jet Fire' kit includes burner head, propane tank, 3 brazing rods and spark lighter. mart Sale Price Today's question was submitted by Angela Blanca Bickell of Bon Accord.
