A provision of the Land Registry Act of British Columbia at the time required that, in normal circumstances, when land bordering navigable waters was being subdivided,, public access to the water must be allowed for at intervals of not more than ten chains, i.e. 660 feet. This ruling was subject to an appeal to the Attorney General. Because of the steep rocky foreshore of the Gleneagles subdivision the developers made just such an appeal and the Municipal Council supported the application for relief and the petition was granted.

But that is another story well documented by Eric Whitehead in his "Hathstauwk", the story of Capilano Golf Club.
