But Mayor Jack Loucks and City Clerk Bob Watson said the motion passed in- camera last week was not a motion of censure and rather was a suggestion for future action. The matter arose at the council meeting Monday when Sorenson rose on a point of privilege in a discussion on accepting the Minutes of last week's meeting. Mayor Louck’s decision to rule Sorenson out of order was overridden in a poll vote. “As an alderman I don't report to other aldermen. | don't report to the mayor and the staff. I'm responsible to the public.” Sorenson said. Sorenson was referring to Impaired A 23-year-old North Vancouver man whose vehicle hit two cars which were stopped for a_ traffic hight at Third Street, pleaded guilty Wednesday to driving with a blood alcohol level over .08.

Marcino had _ requested that the subject of Sorenson criticizing the City’s handling of a rezoning application. in a release to the News, should be placed on the council agenda. In the in-camera portion of the meeting last week, which Aldermen Sorenson. Stella Jo Dean and Gordon Cross refused to attend, council voted to suggest that future matters criticizing staff should be discussed by council with | staff before releases are made to the press. “There is nothing in the municipal act or our bylaws that restrains my mghl to make statements on any subjects that concern me.” Sorenson said. Alderman Gary Pavne said the matter was one of “good manners” and that staff should be advised of the problem ffirst before the aring and me be ‘just you together’, mostly by the way she held my hand. After we were aboard the boat she made a bee-line for her bunk. I watched with interest as she carefully put her boots away and asked me to hang up her ski jacket. Those are good signs to me as it appears that the years of press become involved. “We've been pussyfooting around,” Alderman Elko Kroon said. “We've tried to deal with this on a gentlemanly basis.” he said and added that Sorenson raised the matter in the first place because “his nose was out of joint.” “I think the motion its as sensitive as it could be ... in spite of how sensitively you (Alderman Sorenson) dealt with the matter.” Mayor Loucks said the motion passed last week was “a Suggestion of guidance for all of us.” “] think_ I’ve made my point,” Sorenson said, in concluding the discussion. which touched on the propriety of originally discussing the matter in- camera rather than in public. “Perhaps I acted hastily.” he said. but added. “I don't feel I have to stand before other aldermen on how | should act.” river hit two cars driving spun out on a corner Crown counsel Ken Beauchamp told North Vancouver Provincial Court that Wasson turned from Lonsdale Avenue onto Third Street at about 6 p.m. and hit two cars that were waiting for the light.

These canvas strips “are normally folded under the bunk mattresses, but in heavy weather or ata certain angle of heel they are designed to be pulled out and fastened up to the ceiling with long nylon straps. They act as a restrainer for one’s body, hopefully keeping one in the bunk and off the various hard and sharp places below it. But the children like them up all the time. It seems that they give the feeling of being cuddled, and also a degree of privacy. Six asked me to put hers up.

We spent the day like that. I made sandwiches at lunch time while she sat quietly and happily across from me. We ate slowly - a new trick for both of us.
