PRIVATE FIELD USED PUBLICLY School requests aid COLLINGWOOD SCHOOL, a private school, has asked West Vancouver District to help with the maintenance of its field due to the use it gets from the general public. ‘*We’re not intending to dip into the public till,’ explained Coll- ingwood School Board member Peter Dowling at Monday’a coun- cil meeting. Dowling requested whatever assistance council deetued suitable — 25-30 per cent if possible. The yearly cost of maintenance is about $2,000 per year. The field at the school is used by the public for slo-pitch softball, ; pee-wee baseball and soccer. hy The request had already been . considered and rejected by West Vancouver District staff. The district’s grass cutting crew is already under-manned, explain- ed parks director Frank Kurucz. But help with maintenance might be considered if the field itself were in better condition. District staff has learned that neither North Vancouver, Burnaby or Vancouver municipalities assist with the maintenance of private school fields, but public use of these fields is unusual. ‘I'm inclined to support the ap- plication,’’ said Ald. Mark Sager. Ald. David Finlay said the mat- ter warranted further investigation and moved that it be tabled and returned to staff for consideration again next week. Yellow Pages.
