He said he could not speak for his association because he had been unable to hold a meeting in time for the public hearing. Several other ratepayers groups sent strongly worded letters to council asking for an adjournment. Some groups received a copy of the Municipal News at the end of May but most indi- vidual citizens received the revision to the community plan after the beginning of June, three days before the hearing. A aumber of residents had other gripes with the pian which features among its objectives slow, controlled growth; acquiring land above the 1200 ft. level for a wilderness recreation area; establishing livable traffic patterns; and containing commercial development within present limits. é BRITISH PROPERTIES -- les past and futare -- will be the topic discussed by guest speaker Peter Finch at the annual mecting Wednesday of the West Van Chamber of Com- merce In the Ambleside inn.

He also proposed a possible 35 ft. height restric- tion for trees in West Van. The municipally owned property at the foot of 14th Street in Ambleside was another issue which several residents pulled apart. Bette Williams of the Ambleside Waterfront Rate- payers Association called for a public hearing to discuss the possibility of preserving the buildings which Presently include the bus depot. “Because these buildings are colorful and historical, they Could become an asset to the area,” Mrs. Williams emphasized, adding that residents are afraid that when the buses leave the site “the bulldozers will move in. This must not happen.” The community plan's proposal to turn the foot of 14th into a park was soundly rapped, as well, by Richard Street who told could that West Van does not need another green space. “I am appalled at the cost of parks to the taxpayers when you add the acquisi- tion of land a future main- tenance together. West Van doesn't need any more park- land,” Street said. One resident at least thought that traffic problems should be tackled before en- couraging even slow growth in the municipality. “The idea of slow growth and establishing livable traffic patterns are incom- patible. Put the traffic problem and its solution before any proposal for population growth,” Ken Baxter urged. On the same track was the idea of a third link from Lions Gate Bridge to the Upper Levels Highway which Ted Dorchester indi- MeUATURAL Cy7 THE NATURAL CUT is an elevated precision cut that produces total soft ness and uplift for either long or shorn nar The design tine natural tall pattern is cut in the with special attention paid to the bone structure and facial features SIMPLY COMB AND LET ORY or blow dry in a few minutes PERMACURL ers new IN 414 THE WORLD—curl that lasts up to six months You just wash and wear --no setting blowdrying or wons necessary curing By appointment 984 9817 Itno answer call 985 8634 OPEN Sun 8am Mon 1999 MARINE DRIVE IN THE INTERNATIONAL PLAZA HOTEL Would YOU accept up to THIS AD WORTH EXPIRES JUNE 15 Iipm Thurs & Fn Gam 7pm Tues Wed Sat Vam 6pm cated would cause only a questionable improvement in traffic flow. “It’s a north-south link but traffic in West Van is essen- tially east-west,” he added. On the positive side a number of residents ex- pressed basic satisfaction with the revised community plan and complimented West Van council and staff on their work. A resident speaking for the Horseshoe Bay area said she was delighted that the community “is finally getting some concessions.” “It's as if, for a long time, we've been adolescent and now we're finally being welcomed into the family,” she added. Mayor Derrick Hum- phreys told residents after the three-hour hearing that further written submissions will be welcomed but he declined to set a date right away for a further public hearing on the revised plan.
