testing station equipped with a noise level testing device, on the North

Shore as soon as possible."

Alderman Mabbett commented that the Provincial Government has taken

action with respect to providing noise level testing devices at all three

testing stations in the Lower Mainland, and although they are not in opera-
tion as yet from a standpoint of noise level, most of the equipment is in-
stalled. Alderman Laking stated he agreed with the idea in principle, but
was concerned that there may not be sufficient vehicles on the North Shore

to warrant the building of a testing station in that area.
