Dear Editor:

The civic election is) on Saturday, November 17, with advance polls be-

torehand. | firmly believe it is at that time---and af no other---that the ciuzens of West Vancouver make their choices .

| have served all the peo- ple with their various needs and services during my term ot office ] attend all meetings tor candidates to be heard and questioned But, as in all previous elec- tions, | have not sought the endorsation of any one small group in particular and | do not intend to do so between now and polling day

It as most warmly rewar- ding to receive support and encouragement throughout the Municipality to serve for one more term. | can only suppose this 1s a reflection of the achrevements of the

Municipal Council over the last few years.

Among other things, these include stabilizing the den- sites and style of future developments above the Up- per Levels; very considerable improvements in street drainage and road surfacing as far as budgets will allow; planning the future of the Ambleside-by-the-Sea park project; and = Starting the revitalization of the Ambleside commercial area.

In addinon, we now have a new police court, tirehall, health department offices, works yard, Seniors’ Centre, Eagle Harbour Recreation Centre and new and improv- ed sports fields. In general, we are continuing to upgrade Municipal services and plant within an acceptable budget

and level of taxation. | am proud that, with all these works and improvements,

West Vancouver has as low a

Council renewed her faith in democracy

Dear Editor

The Municipal Councils have worked wath stability and harmony, and this must continue. We have had more publhe hearings and meetings and public input during my period in office than at any time in the past. Our Com. munity Plan, one of the first

in B.C, is a. splendid guideline for West Van- couver’s evolving future

The morale of our Mumicipal work force is excellent and their productivity reflects the quality of the people ser- ving our community. | firm. ly beheve that West Van- couver must continue to be a place of some excellence in the world of today and that this can be achieved at a continued reasonable cost. November 17 1s important m that both Councal and School Board will have sers ing members renominated to continue their work. | beheve Aldefmen Blackburn,
