Building damage
deposit to rise

A fivefold increase in the
amount of damage deposits
to cover the costs of damage
done to public works during
construction was approved
Monday ~by North Van-
couver District council.

Meeting as a policy and
planning committee, council
adopted a staff recom-
mendation to increase the
$100 deposit per building
permit, in effect since 1973,
to $500.

This increase will be used
to meet the rising costs of
repair to damaged curbs,
water connections, road
allowances etc. incurred by
building and development.

Alderman Ernie Cris@
questioned at some lengthy
the proposed maximum off
$1500 per applicant on the
grounds that a_ singlef
developer, building many;
structures at once, couldf
easily cause extensive}
damage, far ‘in excess off
$1500. ;

But he was assured by staff
that there is a low incidence
of damage in such

devolopments.
