CHANGES -TO the - province’s
Municipal Act include a process
for determining by lot the order of
the names listed on ballots for the
Saturday, Nov. 20, municipal
elections.

Colleen Rohde, manager of
legislative services for North
Vancouver. District, said the
district. has decided to adopt the
procedure for this election rather
than the alphabetical voting
system used in the past.

“Therefore, the names are not
in alphabetical order on the
ballots,”’ said Rohde.

North Vancouver City has also
decided to use the lot system.
West Vancouver District will con-
tinue to use the ‘system of listing
‘candidates ‘on ballots in
alphabetical order. ;

preferably include photo iden-
tification,

If the identification docs not
contain a resident’s current ad-
dress, some election officials sug-
gest that the unregistered voter
should bring along a recent BC
Tel or BC Hydro bill stub bearing
the correct address.

Residents have an option to
vote for several people running for
seats as councillors and school
trustees.

Residents do not have to vote
for the maximum number of seats
available,

For example, a school-trustee
ballot will be accepted if there is
only one X beside a name when
there is an option of placing an X
beside five names on the ballot.

In| West Vancouver District
(WVD), there are five school
trustee and six council seats avail-
able,

In North Vancouver City
(NVC), there are three school
trustee and six council seats to
