reflects

HIGH PROFILE and controversial issues studded West
Vancouver District Council’s past year, recalled Mayor Don
Lanskail at Monday’s inaugural address.

‘The Ancore Development above
Upper Levels Highway, the Fish-
erman’s Cove condominium pro-
posal, the United Church's seniors
housing proposal, the Sewell Jease
at Horseshoe Bay and the
development at the foot of 22nd
Street were some of the items
that tried council’s judgment, and
in some cases led to lengthy and
spirited public hearings.

But Lanskail also reported that

Neighbourhood
House gets grant

NORTH SHORE Neighbourhood
House (NSNH) recently received a
provincial lottery fund grant worth
$39,670 to cover phase one of
renovations planned for the 20-
year-old facility.

The provincial money will pay
for making the building more ac-
cessible to the handicapped. First
phase renovations planned for the
beginning of the new year include
ramping to the second floor, hand-
icapped accessible washrooms and
improved access to the day care, a
new elevator and upgrading of
plumbing and electrical installa-
tions.

“We serve a significant number
of handicapped ‘members cf all
ages. When the building originally
went up, it wasn’t in the building
code to provide this type of ac-
cess,’’ said NSNH executive direc-
tor Doug Sabourin.

Future renovations will include
renovations to the various program
areas of the facility.

“The neighborhood house has
always taken an innovative ap-
proach to community service and
they are determined to expand
their membership. This renovation
project will assist them to expand
their program to all age groups
and ensure their future progress,”’
said North Yancouver-Capilano
MLA Angus Ree.

The facility serves as the North
Shore Food Bank and offers a full
range of social and recreational
services for people from all age
groups.

Renovations will also include a
365,000, 22-space parking facility
funded by the City of North Van-
couver.

plans he made a year ago for a
more open council] have proved
successful.

In-camera meetings of council
have been confined to the mini-
mum, while the committee system,
involving aldermen, has encourity-
ed open and constructive debate.

The new public question period
preceding meetings has been used

“reasonably often by citizens, and ~

fears of it being abused have not
materialized,’’ Lanskail said.

“Shirt sleeves. style, informal
meetings with the business
organizations and ratepayers
associations’’ have improved
communications with the com-
munity and provided valuable in-
put.

on year

The policy of holding public
hearings in West Vancouver Senior
Secondary whenever there was
substantial interest has also im-
proved the quality of input, accor-
ding to the mayor.

Appointments made included
Ald. Gordon Rowntree (chair-
man), Lanskail and Ald. Alex
Brokenshire to the Court of Revi-
sion for Local Improvements and
the Court of Revision for List of
Electors.

To the Audit Committee, Ald.
David Finlay (chairman), Lanskail
and Brokenshire were appointed.

Appointments to the Planning,
Land Use and Development
Committee, the Parks, Recreation
and Community Services Commit-
tee, the Public Works Committee,
General Services Committee and
Public Services Committee have
yet to be finalized,

Council representatives to out-
side bodies, such as the Greater
Vancouver Regional District: and
Lions Gate Hospital Board are
also undecided.
