TWIN TOWERS ISSUE
Resident slams WV Council

Dear Editor:

The purpose of local governm-
ent is to provide efficient services
and to enhance civic pride, but in
many cities and towns the ruling
counsellors divide their time be-
tween running their own policy,
pouring scorn on the values and
way of life of their respectable res-

idents, and wasting money.

We are secing in the actions of
the District of West Vancouver
Council, as shown by the Twin
Towers development lease, a
council of seven members running
their own policy apparently
without regard to the public inter-
est. This divergence of council and

Smoke burns up
VW. Van taxpayer

Dear Editor:

I know that if { became aware
that an activity of mine caused in-
convenience, distress and injury to
the health of others I would be
shocked and ashamed.

Most of the year I think West
Vancouver is a wonderful place to
tive. The exception is burning
months. The problem is the
smoke.

Invariably burning takes place
when the weather is overcast and
the smoke is trapped by both fog
and cloud. The result for me is
that | know for a certainty that I
will be sick in October and April.

I have a chronic illness which at
the best of times I can control
reasonably well. Burning months
are not the best of times. I can
confidently predict that | will
develop respiratory problems at
this time. ;

For nine weekends a year I am
forced to cither stay indoors with
windows and doors tightly closed
or to leave the community. These
solutions are expensive, inconve-
nient (when am I supposed to do
my gardening?), impractical and
unsuccessful use the smoke
hangs. in the air till midweek and
the briefest exposure is enough to
cause problems.

1 believe that it is my right as a
taxpayer to expect that the air I
breathe should be as fresh and un-
polluted as S possible. In October

and April the air of West Van-
couver is harmful to the health of
many of its citizens. I hold West
Vancouver Council responsible.

residents is shown by the tremen-
dous amount of vocal and
published opposition to this Twin
Towers project, each tower ap-
parently to be as massive as a Park
Royal Tower building.

Having had the Ambleside
Beach Band Shell project decisively
turned down for lack of public
support, council has now needless-
ly resuscitated this project, with a
further waste of time and money.

It is sincerely hoped that seven
residents of West Vancouver will
be forthcoming for the November
elections to decisively unseat the
present council and elect aldermen
responsive to the needs and wishes
of West Vancouver residents.
These seven aldermanic candidates
will be assured of tremendous
public support.
