CLERKS at the North
Shore’s three munici-
palities are optimistic
they'll see more people
exercising their demnoc-
ratic muscles Saturday.

That’s because cach reported inereased
attendance at advance polls.

Those unable to vote Nov, 20 went to the

olls at their respective municipal hall Nov. 10,
tO or 16. Polling booths were open each day
from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

West Vancouver clerk Margaret Warwick
said 136 more people voted eanty this year than
in’ the 1996 municipal election as 594 people

. took advantage of the advance poll.
Warwick said.she anticipated the increased
_ interest because incumbent mayor Pat Boname
has three well-known challengers: Andy
Danyliu, Russ Fraser and Ron Wood.
lerk Agnes Hilsen in North Vancouver
District said 74 move voters turned out than in

She said the three-w:

oralty race between incum-

bent Don Bell and challengers
Peter Faminow and Dave
Sadler may be one reason for
the jump. But she said it’s
more likely that referendum
questions on waterfront
development and twinning of
the Dollarton Bridge have
stirred peopie to action.

North Vancouver City clerk Bruce
Hawkshaw said 251 voters showed up, 59
more than in 1996.

“They’re still small numbers, but that is a
substantial increase,” he said.

Ie will be the first clection since 1977 that
voters won’t see the name Loucks on the bal-
lot because of the retirement of 81-year-old
Mayor Jack Loucks, mayor for 22 years. Coun.
Barbara Sharp on the left is pitted against Rod
Clark on the right in the battle to become
Loucks’ successor.

There also won't be a Dean running for
council, as longtime Coun. Stella-Jo Dean is
bowing, out of politics. She was first elected in

House hit
