LARGE NUMBERS

restaurants are breaking the municipality’s smok- notices to all violators.
ing regulation bylaw and are running the risk of
stiff fines, municipal council said Monday.

West Van's Social Planner
Richard Wagner told council
that since the Clean Indoor
Air and Smoking Regulation
Bylaw was adopted in March
1984, few restaurants have
posted signs stating whether
or not a non-smoking area is
provided, :

“Only 10 out of 40
restaurants {in West Van)
have (posted signs),” said
Wagner. ‘Virtually all of the
owners or managers con-

tO post signs as soon as
possible."

and. hardly any businesses
have indicated smoking and
non-smoking sections in their
establishments.

He said that most-of the’

restaurant owners have said

high priority.”2”

Alderman “David Finlay :

said he was: dismayed that so

_ Many restaurants (and other
“businesses also’ affected by.
-the smoking bylaw) have not:

ut up signs.
