apartment building adjacent to Fast Eddie’s, Dee said, “The frequent fighting occuring in the laneways adjoining Fast Eddie's is . . . a constant disturbance to our residents. Virtually no evening passes by without some people coming out of Fast Eddie’s and a fight beginning in the laneway.”

In the letter she also said patrons of Fast Eddie's frequently use the apartment building’s parking lot as a bathroom.

Before making the recommendation that the disco close at midnight, some City aldermen lashed at Fast Eddie's management.

“All the evidence in- dicates these people are totally irresponsible,” said Alderman Bill Sorenson. But he added that the management should be given the opportunity to show they can be responsible before drastic action is taken.

Alderman Ralph Hall complained that Fast Eddie's wasn't given the opportunity to reply to the criticisms.

“Did anyone advise them?” he asked. “It’s their business.”

: RCMP to repo rt -on complaints

A bid by Aldermen Stella Jo Dean and Gary Payne to force Fast Eddie's to close at 11 p.m. failed to get any support, though it was loudly cheered by the disco’s neighbors.

“Maybe we should make it § o’clock in the afternoon and just put them out of business,” Sorenson said. “If we didn’t want them there we should have said, ‘Hey, we don't want you there.”” Dee said 1500 people in the Lower Lon- sdale area are directly af- fected by the noise and hooliganism from Fast Eddie's.

She told Alderman Dean that she has witnesses for all her charges. She also said that she and her neighbors have complained countless times to the police, the City, the liquor control branch and the noise bylaw en- forcement office about Fast Eddie's.

When the RCMP report on Fast Eddie's is available, council will reconsider the subject after notifying both management of the disco and its neighbors, Alderman Elko Kroon said.
