Coronation Town council hears citizen concerns at public hearing On June 24 Coronation Town Council held a public hearing for the purpose of considering an amendment to the Town of Coronation’s Land Use by-law 2009-559. The Town has undertaken a new sub division of approximately 35.86 parcels of land to be used for 15 fully serviced light industrial lots south of Railway Avenue. Alan Shoemaker, owner of the RV Park

and Bunkhouse on the south east side of town, attended the public hearing and asked council to consider omitting the parcel of land behind his property from being rezoned or to keep it as an urban reserve. “We don’t want truck loads coming in at 4 a.m.” said Shoemaker. “If you set a reasonable price, I’ll consider buying it.”

Brownfield CRR Multi Club update Krystalee Huber Brownfield CRR Multi Club has finished for the year. Here are some of the highlights: we hosted public speaking events on February 18, 2013 and March 3, 2013. On February 18, 2013 at club level, Kyleen Wadstein and Krystalee Huber got first place in the junior level presentations. Dustin, Dallen and Jayden Kroeker got second and Cody Wadstein and Kylan Huber placed first in the intermediate presentations. In the senior level for speeches Colton Black got first, Tanner Black got second and Jalycia Huber got third. In intermediate Simon Cole got first place, Michael Black got second and Jeremy Burkinshaw got third. In the junior level Wade Black got first. Most of the members who placed in speeches moved on to semi-districts on March 3, which we also hosted. Simon Cole went on to District. Our club did a highway clean up on May 4, 2013. For our community service, we went to help clean up after the Little League Picnic at Burma Park. On June 11 we had our Achievement Day hosted at the Huber’s, including some fun events such as horse competitions, tool scrambles and dressing up a sheep. We got to wear our new 4-H shirts for the first time at achievement day. For horse the record book winners were Amber Burkinshaw in first place and

Riley Smith in second place. For small engines books Colton black got first place and Tanner Black got second place. Jalycia Huber got first place and Jaydon Huber got second place in the sheep and goat section. All in all it has been great year and we are looking forward to next year.

CAO Sandra Kulyk told Shoemaker to put his offer in writing and she would present it to council. Council said the parcel of land on the south east side of town could potentially be used for a new RCMP detachment. Council said this spot would be ideal because it would give the RCMP immediate access to Highway 12 and continued access to town. Kulyk said plans for a new RCMP detachment are in their preliminary stages and nothing is happening just yet. Council did not make any decisions during the hearing. Council approved Techmation Electric’s

application to construct a 60’ by 90’ office and warehouse in the new industrial subdivision. The proposed construction met all required minimum setbacks and size and height restrictions for construction. Techmation Electric estimated it will begin construction on July 2, 2013 and will be completed on November 1, 2013. CAO Sandra Kulyk said in her report to council that the Physician Recruitment and Retention Committee had three potential candidates. The physicians have been interviewed over the phone and site visits have been arranged for July and August.

100 million years ago A canyon wall is like a huge rock clock. The lower layers were laid down first and are the oldest. The upper layers are younger. Looking carefully at STRATA, or layers of sedimentary rock, helps scientists to find out the age of rocks and mountains. These layers formed slowly as bits of rock and grains of sand settled

on top of each other. Over the ages, animals and plants became buried in the sediment and changed into fossils. Rocks that have the same kinds of fossils are believed to be the same age. This is called RELATIVE DATING.

In the summer of 1990, Sue Hendrickson found the fossilized bones of a T. rex when she was a fossil hunter for the Black Hills Institute of Geological Research in Hill City, South Dakota. The dinosaur she found is now named Sue, too! “I was pretty lucky,” says Sue. “But it does take more than just luck,” she admits. Sue knew the right kind of rock to explore because she understood about strata.
