Single family homes Study gets revived OWNERS of small lots in North Vancouver District won't be able to build large houses if bulk and height restrictions introduced last week are passed by council. The _ restrictions; which were defeated at an earlier council meeting, would have a great effect on people who want to split their 66 foot lots into two 33 foot lots. But the restrictions may still run into heavy op- position before council is finished, as three aldermen, Jim Ball, John Lakes and Peter Powell, are strongly to the bulk and height restrictions. The District shouldn't discourage large houses on small lots with housing as scarce as it is, Powell maintained. Lakes said the restrictions weren't fair to the owners of small lots. Also suffering, he said, are the owners of bigger lots who want to subdivide, but are forced to wait while the District considers adopting a sub- division policy.
