Council amends budgetary byiaw

WITH ONE: exception, West Vancouver District Council
members vcied Monday to amend their 1988 budgetary
bylaw to include unbudgeted expenditures totalling several

million do!iars.

“The yes: is not yet over,’’ pro-
tested Ald. Mark Sager.

Municiral manager ‘Terry Lester
explainec that it is normal pre-
cedure ‘» amend the bylaw at this
time, when staff have a ‘‘better
handle on the expenditures.”

The process of doing this has
varied from year to year, however,
director of Finance George Hor-
wood informed council. Some-
times the amending of the bylaw
takes place early the following
year,

“But fos some things to be legal,
they must be in the bylaw. It was
thought to be important to add
them to the bylaw at this time,”’
Horwood said.

Lester added that council can be
held liable for illegal expenditures.

In explanation, Sager said his
refusal to go along with the
amendment bylaw was related to
his voting against the recent
prepayment of the $500,000 mor-

tgage on the 320 Taylor Way
property (due in 1989).

“But when we paid it off early
we saved the interest we would
have paid if we had left it until
1989,” put in Ald. David Finlay.

The extra expenditures not
previously budgeted for 1988, in-
clude extra costs of the Ambleside
and Dundarave revitalization pro-
jects, land development costs at
Westhaven ($550,000) and Cedar-

dale Park ($65,000), as yet
undetermined legal fees regarding
320 Taylor Way, the $500,000
mortgage payment on that proper-
ty ($300,000 of that coming trom
the provisional budget), the
$800,000 plus expropriation of the
Cragg waterfront property,
$900,000 purchase of the Collins’
waterfront property, about
$800,000 purchase of two other
properties, and $100,000 replace-
ment of sewage pumping systems
in Horseshoe Bay.

The money for these unplanned
expenditures came out of the
municipality’s contingency fund.
