THE RESTAURANT and Food Services Association of
British Columbia is asking the provincial government to
ease the liquor rules to permif restaurants te serve liquor
without having to serve accompanying food. Patrons who
wish to enjoy a drink or two in a restaurant must order
food to go along with the liquor. The Neighborhood Pub
Hana Owners’ Association of British Columbia last week urged

‘reporter’ Should eateries become like pubs?

North Vancouver District Council to keep a tight hand on
the taps and register its opposition to the move. Pub
owners claim such a change would turn restaurants into
pseudo-pubs and incrense alcohol abuse and associated
policing costs. This week, the Inquiring Reporter wants
to know how people feel about this issue.

cornice MOUNTAIN LODGE
W. Van council rejects
landmark reconstruction

PLANS. TO rebuild Cypress Mountain Lodge died a quiet
death at West Vancouver District Council Monday.

Ald. Mark Sager was the only
member to dissent when council
voted against the rezoning to allow
the rebuilding of the West Van-
couver landmark.

’“T used to enjoy the hike into
the lodge... It. was very disap-
pointing when it burned down,”’
Sager explained.

Cypress Mountain Lodge,
formerly known. as Westlake
Lodge, has existed in various
:forms ‘since the early. 1930s.
Although its status was never
clear, it has long been used for

-- overnight accommodation. .
_ The. building had been recom-
mended to council for designation
as a heritage structure, prior ‘to the
fire which destroyed over 75. per

cent of the lodge. In cases of such
extensive damage, reconstruction
of a non-conforming use is pro-
hibited by the Municipal Act.

Use of the lodge did not con-
form with the zoning of the area
and council’s policy, which is to
restrict development above the

* 1,200 foot elevation.

Both the advisory planning
commission aud the Parks and
recreation advisory commission
recommended against the rezoning
to allow for reconstruction of the
facility.

Ald. Alex Brokenshire concur-

red with Sager’s personal regrets
over the loss of the landmark, but
pointed out that there were scrious
complications, such as the lack of
public access. Existing access is
through private property.

“"} believe the problems of
potential demand for access,
precedent for other development,
economic viability on a limited-use
basis and other. service issues
outweighed the perceived benefits
of a rebuilt wilderness resort in this
particu'ar location,’’ reported
district planner Steve Nicholls.

Accerding to Nicholls, current —

zoning permits a recreational cabin
on a five-acre parcel and potential
continuation of the existing, non-
conforming cabins.
