Access to. Pool 88 in

closed, despite pleas from
the Outdoor Recreation
Council of B.C. and several
letters from private citizens.

‘But North Vancovuer
District -Mayor Don Bell
commented that the closure

be reopened in the fall.

North Van District
council, Monday, reaffirmed
its earlier decision
maintain closure of the.

The action was essential,
Mayor Bell said, because of
the frequent abuse of the
area by party-going groups.

He said such groups were
endangering the safety of a
sensitive area by making
bonfires and throwing
refuse, including broken
beer bottles, into the river.
