As instructed by Council, I have wiven serious consideration

to the question ~ Should we continue to belong to the Industrial Development

Commission?
It would scen to my Committee that the Industrial Comnission

has improved vastly in their role of promoting industry in the past three

years.

They greatly assist cities such as ours in advertising, planning,

If possible, we should try and retain a member on the Executive,

and possibly see that our Planning Technician be afforded the opportunity to

attend some of the regular meetings.

We require good, clean secondary industry in Port Coquitlam. We
have large areas serviced and accessible.

We must do everything to promote this development. Therefore, we
recommend that membership in the Industrial Development Commission is
imperative, so that we can continue to vecelve the benefits of their planning,

advertising, and other types of professional assistance that is vital to our

continued Industrial growth.

Respectfully submitted,
