A West Vancouver
woman and two boys
were taken to hospi-
tal Monday night
after their minivan
was broadsided at
Duchess and 15th.

West Vancouver Police
say a Jeep, carrying a 16-
year-old male driver and

16-year-old male passen-
ger, drove through a stop
sign on Duchess and hit
the Plymouth driven by
the woman.

The impact of the crash
severely damaged the
Plymouth’s passenger side
and rolled the van onto its
roof, said police
spokesman Sgt. Jim Almas.

An eight-year-old boy
in the Plymouth suffered a
concussion, while a 10-
year-old boy suffered a
concussion and broken Icg,
said Almas.

The 44-year-old
woman received numerous
cuts and abrasions, but no
serious injuries. The tvo
West Vancouver youths in
the Jeep did not suffer
major injuries, said Almas.

Police have not laid any
charges, but the investiga-
tion is ongoing.

Another accident two
kilometres south of Lions
Bay tied up the Sea-to-Sky
highway Tuesday - morn-
ing. West Vancouver fire-
fighters said a head-on col-
lision between two cars
involved nwo people. Both
victims required the Jaws
of Life when being
removed from their cars.

West Van firefighters
say both drivers were taken
to hospital by helicopter
with serious injuries to
their heads, necks and
chests. They had broken
bones and other possible
injuries. The Squamish
RCMP are investigating.

Bylaw has some power

From page 1

The District of West
Vancouver revised its Untidy
Premises Bylaw in March
1996, but it isn’t working, said
Stevenson.

“A bylaw’s a bylaw and it’s
got to be adhered to,” he said.

But the bylaw mainly refers
to material littering property,
such as construction materials,
rubbish, or broken-
down vehicles, said Rob
Metcalfe, business licence and
bylaw inspector for the dis-
trict.

“We can’t legislate growth.
We can’t legislate the height of
grass or weeds in your yard,
and I have a devil of a time
explaining that to people.”

When the district receives a
complaint it sends a letter to
the homeowner, asking the
person to clean up the prob-

“Bur some of it is growth
that people like. Or a lot of
them (homes) now are owned
offshore and we don’t get a
whole lot of response.”

According to the revised
bylaw the district has the right
to clean up untidy premises
and then add the charges to
the homeowners’ tax bills.
Worthy and Stevenson said
they think that is the answer.

Metcalfe said the district
will only go that route if the
problem becomes a hazard.
