Council heeding call
for cultural facilities

DESPITE THE relative affluence of
the North Shore's population, the
region's cultural facilities ate insuf-
ficient and many need to he
improved, a recent report presenti
to North Vancouver City Council
stated,

NORTH VANCOUVER
CITY COUNCIL
By Grace Golightly

Commissioned by the North
Shore Arts Commission, the
Regional Cultural Facilities Study:
Final Report, notes that 4 1993 study
found a high percentage of North
Shore residents attend cultural
events (within a two-year period,
72% attended concerts, 60% attend-

ed plays, 42% attended art galleries
and 44% attended muscums) bul
SS of the respondents prefersed to
attend evens in Vancouver, where
they felt the variety and quality of
facilities was better,
The report's recommendations
include;
@ renovations to
Theatre;
the development of a new photo
and media art gallery;
M@ the relocation of the North
Vancouver Museum;
Ma new 200- to 300-seat theatre.
The bill for proposed facilities in
North Vancouver alone could range
from $9.9 million to $18 million.
But the report was well-accepted
by council, which voted unanimous-
ly at its April 18 mecting to support
it,

Centennial

Residential! for empty-nesters

From page 3

Moors disputed SOS Again's
argument that the donated park
would be awkward and uncomfort-
able for residents to use because of
its proximity to the residential
buildings.

“You can look at other areas
where that has been successful —
False Creck, for example,” said
Moors. —

Moors said United Properties
has conducted traffic studies on
Doffarton Highway which indicate
the road can handle the develop-
ment.

He said Cates Landing, similar
to United’s Parkgate Manor recent-

ly completed behind Parkgate
Shopping Centre, is geared to
“empty-nesters” who do not con-
tribute heavily to rush-hour traffic.

Moors said Parkgate Manor has
136 units and five children in the
complex. He said Cates Landing
would have a similar minimal
impact on the school system.

“We don’t anticipate a large
ratio (of children) in this project,”
said Moors.

The NVD planning department
recommended the project go ahead,
but elected councillors have
deferred the rezoning process until
the fall.
