THE VOICE OF NORTH AND WEST VANCOUVER

QUESTION

saving the Park and Tilford
Gardens in the November 16
election.

But Ald. Dana Taylor says
all members, of council want
to save the Park and Tilford
Gardens.

“First of all it’s a lie,’’
Taylor said. ‘As to who
supports the Park and
Tilford Gardens, the record
shows full support at coun-
cil.””

But the majority of coun-
cil members are not prepared
to support the commercial
zoning of the 30-acre
Schenley-owned land to
allow for a $36 million
Daon/Brodel proposed
shopping centre and festival
gardens because it would
take away from the city’s

"industrial land.

“{ have had two people
call me and four people that
I’ve met on their doorsteps

raising the matter as to what
my position is on the Park
and Tilford issue,’ Taylor
said, ‘‘and they’ve told me
about these telephone calls
they’ve received.””

Taylor said the phone
caller asks residents if they
want to save the gardens, if
they would be willing to
carry a sign promoting that
stance and if they are willing
to vote for the three
aldermen and Kroon in
Saturday’s election.

Taylor said one man
agreed to put a sign up on
his lawn to save the gardens,
but when the sign arrived, it
turned out to be a campaign

sign for Dean with a ‘save-,

the gardens’ message on it.
Taylor said when residents
have asked the caller about
incumbents John
Braithwaite’s, Rod Clark’s
or Taylor’s positions, they

MANAGEMENT .at West Vancouver’s Beacon
Hill Ledge will appeal 2 Labour Relations Board
ruling that has stalled the private hospital’s ability
to lock out its registered nurses.

Beacon Hill management
spokesman Richard
Halliburton said Thursday
the appeal has been launched
because ‘frankly we find it
difficult to comprehend that
on the one hand the board
recognizes the HEU workers
as essential to the life, health
and safety of the residents,
but on the other hand it is
saying the employer is not

allowed to exercise its legal

staff. The board is, in effect,
placing conditions on the
employer that it would not
think of placing on the
employees. We are upset.
This is not a good ruling by
the board.’’

resented.

Ads in Wednesday’s issue
of the North Shore News
and in today’s paper endorse
the same four candidates
that were mentioned in the
telephone calls. The ad copy
outlines all. the benefits of
the same shopping centre
proposal that council
defeated, including a multi-
screen cinema, food store
and restaurants, but never
mentions developers Daon,
Brodel or manager of the

_ gardens Hyland Turnkey.

Asked if Daon or Hyland
Turnkey were the backers of
those ads, Ald. Rod Clark
said: ‘‘Of course they are. I

label. I have been offered
