... With a pint of bitter

NEIGHBORHOOD pubs could find a more en- couraging environment in North Vancouver City in future.

Urged on by Aldermen Ralph Hall, who bashed bureaucratic axing of ap- plications for neighborhood pubs, council voted Monday to review City policy towards them.

An application for a neighborhood pub at 175 Rast Ist Street is before council, but staff has recommended its rejection.

“We've got to decide if

we're truly interested in neighborhood pubs,” Hall said.

“Applications that come in get shot down for bureaucratic reasons--they have to have ali sorts of parking, they have to be within a mile of licenced premises.

“Lf we want them, we have to get realistic about parking regulations.”

Fifteen parking places are required for pubs of the size proposed in the application, under a present City bylaw.

The applicants for the pub

said they could provide 10 spaces.

Another bylaw insists a new pub or licenced hotel must be located a mile away from any other—except if the manager of the existing pub approves a closer location.

Alderman Gary Payne chimed in with his support of neighborhood pubs.

But Alderman Stella Jo Dean said the new neigh- borhood pub would be “too close to trouble spots.”

“It’s a block away from the Olympic Hotel.” she told council.

to be in England

“I know Alderman Payne has been in England,” she said, “...they’re educated on how to drink.”

Payne has mentioned English drinking habits in connection with neigh- borhood pubs in other council meetings.

“I don't approve of treating alcohol con- sumption as though it were some kind of original sin,” Payne said.

A policy should be established, agreed Alderman Elko Kroon.

Everyone except Dean voted for the move.

The early bird catches the bus

MISSING the bus can ruin anyone's day. And when R.F. Taylor ran for the Horseshoe Bay bus at 7:29 a.m. he felf down and received a cut hand, torn raincoat, and lots of mud on his clothes.

In a letter to West Van- couver council, Taylor asserted that in the five years he has taken the Horseshoe Bay bus it has never arrived at his stop before 7:32.

“I do not mind waiting for a bus that’s a bit late but | fail to sec why I should have to be there for buses thal are indisputably carty” the letter ended.
