L North. Vancouver's longest serving “member of ‘City ;
. Council, Stella Jo Dean, received a 25-year award
“for “long and faithful: service” this October. The
award was presented to her by the. Union of BC —

Municipalities at their ‘annual conference.

. The Councillor, who considera herself “ ‘a community

worker,” says the people che works with are the reason
for her success. “Everything Thave ever done has! been
with volunteers. Nobody can do it on their own.”

AN IMPRESSIVE TRACKRECORD |

Councillor Dean began her career in 1967 shortly after
receiving the Centennial Medal of Canada for .her
work organizing North Vancouver’s “Salute to the

Century.” The celebration included a parade of 5000 |.
participants’ to historic Moodyville. With hundreds

- decked out in historical coatume, the event was the

: second largeet in Canada. :

“[ had the blessing of my. husbend to » go into politica,”
she said. “Roland said I should run and be would elways
be there with the kids when I wasn’t home.” So, in

addition to raising three young children, running an"

art gallery and attending SFU Stella began her career
in municipal politics.

Mayor J.E. Loucks and Members
of Council presented Councillor
Stella Jo Dean with the prestigious _
25-year Civic Award Certificate
on December 8, 1997 at
a City. Hall Ceremony.

Today, r7:e is as busy as ever. Currently, she is actively
involved on six boards, including the Heritage

Advisory Commission, where she has been responsible .

for the donation of a 60-year old crane from Seaspan.
She hopes to see this industrial artifact become a cen-
trepiece for the new Versatile shipyard development
site.

But the one program of which she is especially proud
is the “Bus Stops on Request.” Thie program gives men
and women the option of being dropped off at night at
a point on the bus route closest to. their homes.
Initiated by Ms. Dean in 1992, the 9:00 p.m. to 5:00
a.m. program has since been adopted in many munic-
ipalities across Canada.

Just one more achievement to add to her ever growing
list of accomplishments. But Stella has personal rea-
sons for continuing with all her community programs.
As she so aptly puts it,‘I love the community. I love
North Vancouver...I have lots of beautiful memories.”
