Thermo-scanning is I believe what the Member is referring to, and we have used it in the Sahtu and we have used it in Norman Wells and other communities. We’ve also done some thermo-scanning of municipal facilities. Thank you.

Yes, we always are very diligent when we’re dealing with fuel and we monitor our facilities very closely. Any time there is any indication of potential contamination, we certainly don’t hesitate to move on it. Thank you.

Mr. Chairman, the response is the same. We are in the planning study of having a strategic plan for replacement, upgrades and retrofits of the facilities that are going to be required as we move forward with our building maintainers. So both the facility at the tank farm and the facility for Public Works in the community are at the planning stage and we’ll share the information as to the long-term plans for that as we move forward. Right now they’re currently not in this budget, but we are working on getting the information that’s required. Thank you.

Mr. Chairman, we certainly recognize that the Member has raised a number of issues in this area, and we can commit that we’ll start working on it in this coming fiscal year and hopefully we’ll have a better response by the next time around or the next set of business plans. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Thanks to all the Members for their comments and the issues they’ve brought forward. The first one being, of course, the discussion around some of the demolition projects we have going. We have a budget of $3.2 million to take down two fairly large buildings; buildings that we’re still paying for the safety issues on them. That’s a big reason to move forward in fairly short order to eliminate any of the public safety concerns. There are also contaminants in some of these facilities that we have to make sure we deal with. There is still a certain cost to have all those...

Mr. Chairman, we’re looking at the change, and the change is as a result of a net change to the amortization expense of $94,000.

I do, Mr. Chairman.

Mr. Chairman, we’ll have our TSC expert here speak on some of the more specific detail as to what we have done and what will be happening.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. That request has come in on several occasions. We feel we’ve given a very attractive deal to the golf association and, no, we’re not considering transferring it to the city.

Mr. Chairman, of course, we appreciate the Member’s comments and his desire to be creative. We can look at it. We can do a quick analysis maybe on one portion from Tulita to Wrigley, for example, and provide that information to the Members, whoever is interested to see it. Thank you.
