John Braithwaite said ‘I’m really
concerned about the parking.... As
1 understand it, this is the first test
that has come before council (since
the policy was made that the
removal of off-street parking be

should stick to policy.”

Although city staff suggested the
policy be relaxed on the grounds
that 15th Street is not a heavily

Braithwaite insisted, ‘‘We should

More good news for long distance callers in B.C. For the
second time in 1988, long distance calls within B.C. are
being reduced.

Effective July 15, long distance rates within the
province have been reduced by an average of 72%.
And WATS rates inside B.C. have been reduced by an
average of 7.9%.

So now you can talk a little longer because
your long distance dollar goes even farther.

*New rates do not apply to some special rates from the following
communities: Agassiz, Bowen Island, Castlegar, Grand Forks,
Whatiey. Nor do they apply toareas served by Northweslel Inc.

bay, which they propose would be
8’ x 18” instead of the requisite 9’ x
30°.

In concurring with Braithwaite,
acting mayor Frank Morris made
the point that similar bylaw relaxa-
tions in nearby developments were
“not really exceptions,’’ but the
result of special arrangements and
circumstances.

Ald. Barbara Sharp added her
voice to the dissenters, with the
hope that the developers would
return to council with revised plans
allowing for the added parking
stall.

The one assenting voice was
provided by Ald. Rod Clark, who
said ‘*] can’t see holding up a
development that will be of benefit
to the city (over one parking
spot).’”

The bylaw was defeated at se-
cond reading by a vote of three to
one.
