A complete unified
service to provide tran-
sporation ,for the han-
dicapped is needed on the
North Shore, according to a
committee consisting of
members of the United Way
and the North Shore
Association for the
Physically Handicapped.

And while both North
Vancouver City and District
council’s discussed the
matter at their Monday
meetings and agreed with
the concept, they felt the
matter was out of their
hands.

Customized transportation
for the handicapped will be
one of the areas which the
Greater Vancouver
Regional District (GVRD)
will be taking over on April
1.

Through the GVRD,
municipalities will be able to
apply to the Urban Transit
Authority (UTA) for an
agreement whereby only 10
per cent of transporation
costs will be paid by the
customer.

Because of this system
District council said they, as
a body, were powerless to
directly assist, in providing
transportation for the
handicapped.

But council agreed to
transmit proposals for
improved services for the
handicapped to the GVRD
for their consideration.

“The wheels appear to be
turning and the policy ap-
pears to be set,”-North Van
City Alderman Gary Payne
said.

City council named
Alderman Frank Marcino to
sit on the committee to
develop a_ specific tran-
sportation service for the
North Shore.

This was the only action

City council took on
Monday, although Shelia
Gilmour, chairman of the

North - Shore . branch of
United Way, told the council
it was not just a question of
sitting back and waiting of
the UTA to put on the
service.

Currently several
organization such as_ the
Lions Club and the North
Shore. Transportation
Society provide tran-
Sportation for the  han-
dicapped on the North
Shore.
