In the short term, the theme will determine what the sig- - Mage system for the Gorge Development will look like. "We need to arrive at a theme this winter because of the signage for the Gorge in the spring," says Tourism Coordi- nator Susan Johnson. In the long term, the design of Terrace Bay's Highway Cor- ridor will be heavily influenced by whatever theme is chosen.

"The way "You could almost compare it to the 1930s" Krause said. He also said he wished more people would take an interest in local issues. "T think it's a shame people don't get involved in municipal politics," he said. "People com- plain to us, but they don't want to get involved. Councillor Ron McBride said Schreiber was going to suffer as a result of decisions taken elsewhere. "T feel that we, as a munici- pality, will suffer as a result of budget cutbacks," he said. "Lobbying the government (for funds) will have a high priority on my list." Councillor Tony Speziale, another new face on the Coun- cil, said one of his priorities was getting improved produc- tion from town employees. He also mentioned former Councillor Tom Quinton, who decided not to run for council include wild flowers, building a stone and timber pavilion in Centennial Park, and the use of logs instead of processed wood.

She also said she hoped that "by the end of this council, you will not see one stray dog run- ning around the streets of Schreiber." Councillor Ed Borutski said he hoped this Council would be able to cut spending. "Now that the sewage plant is built, I'm hoping we can cut back costs," he said. "Often we lose out on grants, because we don't have the. matching funds." Before adjourning, the coun- cil appointed the town solicitor, auditor, and reappointed Aurel Gauthier town clerk-treasurer and tax collector. They also agreed to meet on the first and third Tuesdays of the month. Bay theme She says it's more of an artistic theme, making use of colours and hand crafted prod- ucts. "It includes things like gar- den furniture, more hand craft- ed things, use of colours and plants," she says. "It's still nat- ural, but not quite so perfect."
