The four-day work week
has. been talked about for
some time now. I understand
that Vancouver City employ-
ees have shifted to this
system and like it very much.
On the other hand, . Wood-
ward’s employees rejected it.

This week the Inquiring
Reporter asks: What do you
think of the four-day work
week?’’

Councils Row : : up

West Vancouver council
took steps Monday to pres-
erve the natural state of
Hollyburn Mountain when it
approved in principle the
recommendations in a report
by the Hollyburn Ridge
Committee, submitted to
council the previous week by
municipal staff.

The committee, consisting
of three members of the
Hollyburn Ridge Association
and three aldermen, chaired
by Ald. Don Lanskail, had
originally sent its report to
council in May 1976—since
when it has been studied by
staff.

Recommendations in the
report included the follow-

_ ing:

-*No motorized vehicles to
be permitted on the Ridge. —

*No ‘restaurants, lunch
counters, stores or chalets to
be. permitted, although. the
Westlake Lodge facility
would continue to operate.

"The area outside the
present .9 acre and 2-acre
cabin zones to be zoned as a
§-acre cabin area.

' *Present cabin ownets to
| be given a five-year tenure.
*The hours of the muni- ©
cipal ranger to be reorgan-
ized so as to restore
‘patrolling and inspection on.
Saturdays and Sundays.

“*Recognized organizations
and groups to be permitied .
to build cabins.”

‘Municipal approval to. be

requiréd' for’ extensive cabin
repairs or alterations. |

*Trees to be cut only with
written consent of the muni-
cipality.

AE. you go past Delbrook
School you will notice that all

of the windows have been

boarded up the doors sec-

urely locked.

This makes one wonder
what will. become of the
building.

A committee is presently
discussing the problem and a

report is expected early next
schcol ‘year.

*Garbage collection by the

municipality to be consider-
ed.

*Existing “trails to be
improved. No overnight
camping or picnic tables to
be permitted.

®The Ridge to be restricted
to cross-country skiing dur-
ing the ski season.

“No action to be taken on a
golf course pending a feasi-
bility study.

Having given its blessing

to the concept embodied in |

the report, council will
* proceed to examine the
individual recommendations
in detail.

In other business Ald. Bob
Wyckham triggered a sharp -
exchange with fellow council
. members when he tried—
without success—to check on
progress in finding a new

location for the West Van-

couver bus depot.

uses might include.extention

Although the main build-

fire earlier this year, the
science wing and the gymn-

asium are still intact and

usable.
