Pending river crossing decision

By CAROLE STAFFORD

Developers can proceed with clearing,
engineering design and the installation of roads
and services east of the Seymour river, but they
can’t build any houses there until a decision on

the Seymour crossing is made.

This decision was reached

after debate by North
Vancouver District council
Monday night.

Mayor Don Bell said he
had just received a letter
from the Squamish Indian
Band which “looks lhke we
may be on the track to a
decision (over whether a
Seymour crossing can en-
croach on Indian lands).”

Council 1s negotiating with
the band over a particular
right of way. “But we have a
number of alternatives at our

disposal,” he said
Council had = decided
earlier that “major”

developments would not be
allowed before the crossing
issue was settled, but had
indicated that “minor infill’
might be exempt from this
restriction

But mayor and minor had
not been defined in
numerical terms and a
proposed subdivision of 29
buildings which would in-
crease traffic by about one
percent engendered debate

Alderman John Lakes, the
lone dissenter in the final
decision, said, “If council is
going to put a total
moratorium on_ housing
development east of
Seymour until we reach
agreement with the Indian

Band, I think that's tan-
tamount to bad govern-
ment.”

He said more housing with
more traffic would “provide
an incentive to council and
the Indian band and the
department of highways to
get on with a solution to this

problem.”
But Alderman Gordon
Rose said. “I couldn't

disagree more. If we open
this, we'll open the flood
gates. There are 100 other
guys out there chomping at
the bit to get in there and
build. We can't set that sort
of precedent '

Alderman Peter Powell
concluded, “We either get
this thing wrapped up in
short order or we go the
alternative route ~
