Ride still bumpy for
WV highrise project

By NEWS STAFF

AFTER BATTLING West
Vancouver council and
hostile area residents for
more than three years, it's
still debatable whether a 20-
storey high rise apartment
project by Bay Beach
Towers Ltd. at 22nd and
Bellevue will get off the
ground.

Monday night's council
meeting swarmed with
distraught property owners
in the vicinity of the propos-
ed tower, all voicing concern
about

possible view
obstruction from _ their
homes.
Architect Bill Lort at-

tempted to reassure them
that existing views from
homes would not be severely
handicapped.

“Our complex will only be
96 ft. wide on a 400 foot

piece of property. It won't
be more than a postage
stamp obstruction,” he ex-
plained.

But homeowners refused
to buy his arguments.

Ralph Carder, a
homeowner threatened with
obstructed view, = said:
“There is a popular
misconception which is nur-
tured by developers that
when faced with such high
rise developments the only
recourse for residents is to
ask for low rise alternatives
(and the development goes
ahead).”

Another resident feared
West Vancouver would soon
be flooded with a sea of high
rises,

“What we need are small
density and lower, nicer
looking buildings,” said
David Bruce-Thomas.

Alderman Diana Hutchin-
son queried Lort on whether

he has considered altering
the design of the building
from 95 ft. wide to 84 ft.
wide.

“Yes ... we've considered
it. But nothing can be gamed
from it,” Lort replied.

Mayor Derrick Hum-
phreys, meanwhile, ques
tioned Lort about possible
floor space ratio violations if
apartment balconies are
closed in. He obtained
assurance from Lort that
such practices would not be
effected once the building is
occupied.

Finally Alderman David
Finlay moved to refer the
project back to municipal
staff for consideration of
various amendments to the
structure. ;

Council expects the staff
recommendation report
back for final consideration
next Monday.

Fined $1,000 for
rent increas

LANDLORDS who illegally
raised the rent of a suite in a
Lynn Valley apartment com-
plex were fined $1,000 and
ordered to pay restitution of
$270 in provincial court Fri-

Stuart Nassim
Developments Limited

pleased guilty to unlawfully
collecting more rent than
authorized for the apartment
at Emery Place.

The prosecution was
brought by the Office of the
Rentalsman because the rent

was increased twice in 1980,
contrary to rental legislation
of that time.

Judge J.B. Paradis heard
that in September 1980 the
rent on the two-bedroom
apartment was increased
from $495 to $550. The
tenants moved out at the end
of October and the rent was
again raised when new
tenants moved in_ for
November, to $595.

fice of the Rentalsman deter-
