West Van res

opposed course

From page 1

residents opposed the devel-

opment citing the presence of

old-growth trees.

Although Hynes and
Sojonky revised their plans,
environmental groups contin-
ued to oppose the project.

In a referendum on Nov.
17, 1990, West Vancouver res-
idents voted against building a
golf course on Cypress Ridge.
As a result of the vote council
passed a resolution rejecting
the proposed golf course.

Hynes and  Sojonky
chimed the municipality
breached its contract with
them to enter into a lease for a
27-hole course. = Price
Waterhouse placed the present
value of the lease at $5.5 mil-
lion while BDO Dunwoody
reported the fair market value
between $500,000 and $1.1
million.

The plaintiffs also claimed‘

they were entitled to the value
of the work already done on
the project and damages
against West Vancouver for
negligence and misrepresenta-
tion,

Although the matter was
initially set for trial May 31,
1993, it was adjourned to May
1994 due to the unavailability
of a judge. When the plain-
uff's counsel was unable to
attend the trial the matter was
further postponed until Feb.
24, 1997. The settlement was
reached on Feb. 14.

decided to hold a referendum
late in the process. He also
mentioned the death of former
mayor Don Lanskail, one of
the orginal proponents of the
golf course project and a key
witness for the municipality.

“Recognizing the forego-
ing risks and the fact that the
trial of the action would be
lengthy and expensive, the dis-
trict. council authorized its
solicitors to enter into settle:
ment negotiations,” Allan
noted.
