Greenock Place started going door to door asking
people what they thought about the mountain of

garbage that was piling

Wedensday night over 100

people crowded into a room
at Ross Road Elementary

school to hear briefs
presented against the
Premier Street landfill.

The meeting was

organized by the Committee
for position to Landifll
Dumping (COLD), a group
of residents spearheading
the drive against the dump.
The dump _ should be
closed, the height lowered
and it should be covered,

member and resident of the

area said.

Other residents pressed
for alternative garbage
disposal systems, such as
incineration.

The meeting was held four
days after floodwaters

ripped through the dump,
spewing portions of it along
the banks of Lynn Creek.

During the flood leachate
systems in the dump were
exposed and _ shattered,
bleeding toxic wastes into
the creek water.

expected turnout at the
meeting. ,

But flood or not, the basic
problem of what to do about
the dump hasn't changed,
she says.

About 200-300 people are
affected by the proximity of
the 150 ft. mound of rotting
garbage at the landfill site,
organizers of the protest
claim.

It has been dubbed
“Mount Bell” in honor of
North Vancouver District
Mayor Don Bell. He has

warned that alternatives to
the landfill system are ex-
tremely expensive for the
District.

People living near the
dump have complained of

About $2 million worth of
real estate value has also
been lost because of the
dump, one resident said at
the meeting.

She said a realtor brought
in to assess a house on
Greenock Place, sited across
a ravine from the landfill,
estimated the dump lowered
the value of the house by
about $36,000.

“Multiply that by the 200-
300 homes close to the dump
and you get over $2 million
lost,” she said.
