History of Horseshoe Bay
1912
West Vancouver becomes a separate District
Municipality. The split between North and West Vancouver was amicable -
even as terms were discussed the North Shore Council approved a by-law
for $100,000 to improve Keith Road and to build Marine Drive. Charles
Nelson was elected first Reeve (mayor) and the first Municipal Hall was
built at accost of $3500.
1918
The Council decided to obtain foreshore rights
in Horseshoe Bay, Copper Cove and Fisherman's Cove. The Council now
wanted to control all the foreshores and faced the problem of
expropriating established housing.
