Landfill
case to
court in
Nov. ‘85

FIVE FAMILIES who have
filed Supreme Court suit
against the District of North
Vancouver over the opera-
tion of the Premier Street
landfill site face a long wait
before the case goes to trial.

John Ince, the Vancouver
lawyer who represents the
five families, said the case
has gone on the Supreme
Court calendar for
November 7, 1985.

Ince said that date was sect
to get the case on the court
docket and that there is a
chance it may be brought
ahead if there is available
court time and if both sides
are ready for an carlicr trial.

In the suit the five families,
all residents of the Premier
Strect landfill area, allege
that the district has violated
its permit to operate the
dump and that its presence
has devalued their properties.

Ince, who also represents
Harvey Lawson in his at-
tempts to appeal an amended
operating permit for the
landfill, said that no date has
been set’ for the resumption
of an hearing into that ap
peal, currently before the En-
vironmental Appcal Board.
