Local pub hours essential

Dear Editor:

Recently, the action of the
Provincial Government
regarding their unilateral ex-
tension of pub hours has
created problems in many
municipalities - ours includ-
ed. The action of the District
of North Vancouver has been
to appeal most vehemently to
the Province indicating the
strong feelings of the
municipality that hours of
operation are one of the main
concerns of Council when
considering approval for a
pub. Operating hours were a
main topic of discussion at
the Public Hearings for the
two pub zones now in the
District and attest to the con-
cerns of the residents for the
seriousness of this matter and
the effect) on surrounding
properties.

The fact is the description

says it all - ‘neighbourhood
pub’’. To be a good
neighbour there must be
mutual consideration of the
rights and privacy of the sur-
rounding community. For
this reason, Council has held
up two new applications for
locating neighbourhood pubs
in the District until the ques-
tion of hours of operation
has been addressed. We have
also. made our position
known to the Minister of
Consumer and Corporate Af-
fairs - that the municipality
strongly opposes unilateral
Provincial action on
something as local as a
neighbourhood facility. It is
interesting to note that the
brochures still being
distributed by the Province

“ entitled ‘‘Obtaining a Licence

for a Neighbourhood Public
House in British Columbia’’
State:

‘Fourteen hours of con-
tinuous sales are allowed,
between 9 a.m. and 11
p.-m., Monday through
Saturday. The closing
hour may be extended to
as late as 2 a.m. where
authorized by tocal
authorities, but the 14
hour total still applies.’’

~-although no consultation or
advice, never mind
authorization, is now taking
place.

I would also like to take
the opportunity to. clarify
statements made by a recent
correspondent in this column
where it was suggested that
my office did not respond to
correspondence or take ac-
tion to address concerns of
residents living near the
Raven Inn. The cor-
respondence referred to is
one year old and was address-

ed to our Engineering
Department. A copy was sent
to my office and action was
taken on several aspects of
concern at a Council meeting
on September 6th, 1983. 1
want to set the record straight
that Council and staff of the
municipality make a_ con-
scientious effort to act upon
the concerns of our residents
whenever possible.

The question of a con-
sultative Provincial approach
to the hours of operation of
pubs is being vigorously pur-
sued by this municipality and
others and will come forward
for discussion at the
September convention of the
Union of British Columbia
Municipalities.

Hopefully,
listen.

Researchers have found
that to realize effective traffic
law enforcement, media ac-
companiment is imperative.
This is why we rely so heavily
on your support for cam-
paigns of this type.

This task is not easy when
you consider that seven thou-
sand British Columbians per
year are either killed or in-
jured in alcohol-related
crashes. If you and your local
police manage through co-
Operative effort to reduce
that number by even one life,
then I believe you have done
your community a tremen-
dous service.

Thank you once again.
