Powell to stand
on his record

Alderman Peter Powell,
who is seeking re-election
for a further term to North
Vancouver District council
on November 15, prefers to
make no election promises

and ,is standing on his
record.

In a statement issued last
week Powell said:

ALD. PETER POWELL

“The decision to seek a
fourth term as alderman 1s
not difficult for me to make,
as this happens to be my way
of serving the community in
which I live, and I count
myself fortunate that my
peers have seen fit to allow
me to serve in this way.

“As usual I make no
promises except my best
efforts at all times, and to be
available to those who ask
for my assistance or advice.

“The most pressing need
in local government today is
less public speaking and
more private thinking.

‘I have tried to channel

my energies
unglamorous but utterly
essential background
bullwork, and to ignore the
more spectacular but vote-
catching posturing, and I
like to think that this effort
has culminated in my
selection by council to carry
the ball for them this year at
the regional district level.

“This has been tough
work, and time-consuming,
but I really believe council is
better informed of their
relationship to the regional
district because of my
regular reporting, in writing,
of what is going on at that
level.

“There seems to be a
widely held notion that
election to office confers the
overnight acquisition of the
wisdom of Solomon. That is
quite untrue. The day after
the election the successful
contender remains the same
fallible human as previously.
but has had thrust on him
work, responsibility, and
accountability.

“Ail he or she can do is
their consistent best to serve
those who have put their
trust into those fallible
hands. It is my sincere hope
that my years of service have
demonstrated that, despite
my failings, I have been a
good and conscientions
alderman, who works in the
interests of all the taxpayers
of the District, and I ask to
judged on election day on
my performance, not on any
promises.”
