Flooding fears fuel residents

of the exposure during the
construction period, tem-
porary ditching remains
unspecified as to location
and capacity,’* said Rogers.
“We are also dismayed that
seasonal limitations included
by Mr. Mclean, design
engincer, have been set
aside, as year round con-
struction is now permitted."

Residents further argued
the proposed eight lots are
too small to conform with
the requested zoning change.

Johnson said staff has
addressed the substandard
road question in its let-
ter to residents dated
September 3, but contends
staff's reason — to allow
better driveway grades, simi-

Enrolment up

From Page 3

Commenting after the
school board meeting on the
attraction of Collingwood
over schools in district 45,
Smith said he saw nothing
special in what the school
had to offer, ‘‘but there is a
perceived value that comes
with paying $4,000 annual
tuition fees.”

Despite the loss of stu-
dents to Collingwood and
the overall enrolment decline
in district 45, May pointed
out that the present
kindergarten enrolment,
which is up from 320 in
September 1984 to 337 in
September 1985, continues
the positive trend that began
in West Vancouver

kindergartens in 1979 when
enrolment hit 293, its lowest
point in the past 10 years.

“The continued increase
augurs well for the future,’’
said May, “the figures in-
dicate that the bell curve has
flattened out.”’

May also pointed out that
for the first time in four
years there were more stu-

dents enrolled in grade seven .

than in grade six, 366 and
336 respectively, a seven per
cent increase: ‘I think these
figures show we have turned
the corner."’

District 45 has 17 fewer
teachers this year than last
year with a current total of
270. The pupil/ teacher ratio
in the district is 17.7 to one.

“1 suggest the major
reason for the narrow road
