8 — Sanday, September 10, 1989 - North Shore News NV village needs council’s Dear Editor: Numerous letters and phone calis have failed to move North Vancouver District -Hal on two issues surrounding Edgemont Village. Perhaps a letter published in the News will produce some ac- tion. @The pedestrian crossing at . Queens and Edgemont is danger- ous. It is the only crosswalk I have ever seen that crosses a busy road diagonzily. If covncil cannot improve the situation then I suggest we contact the people at Guinness and have it verified as the longest and most dangerous crosswalk in North America (and the most stupid, for good measure). ® Whilst on the subject of stupid, it seems apt to use the same word for the selection of the or- attention cherry trees (inedible, by the way). For the last five years we have had to suffer the results of these fallen - cherries staining sidewalks, carpets in stores, carpets in cars, ruined shoes, etc. It is extremely expensive to clean carpets and the like after they have been stained with cherries, but council once again will take no re- sponsibility for such damage, despire the fact that they were responsible for planting the trees. Th: supposedly well-qualified traffic, engineering and urban planniug departments refuse to take any action on either problem. T urge residents of the area to put pressure on their councillors and on district hall-to rectify these problems. Merchants of the area should also send district hall their carpet namental trees decorating the cleaning bills. village. Bil Corden The trees are fruit-bearing North Vancouver Highrise critics ‘dreary’ Dear Editor: There appear to be some politi- cians and several writers to your gewspaper who object to highrise They rattle off ridiculous phrases against them without one word of proof for their statements. Because we should preserve our valuable forests and agricultural land, the most sensible way to grow is upwards. Do these anti-highrise propo- nents want to see six-storey build- ings stretching ever further into the countryside? Such a dreary pro- spect can only come from dreary minds.
