To: Bryan Kirk
City Administrator

Janna Taylor
Parks & Recreation Director

Subject: Consultant - Trail System

Recommendations:
1. That Guzzi Perry and Associates Inc. be retained for the PoCo Trail system study.
2. That the cost for the project not exceed $26,300.

That the money for this project be taken from the 1993 Parks & Recreation Capital
Budget of $26,300 that was originally allocated for the PoCo Trail entrance
enhancements.

Background & Comments:

In the 1991 PoCo Parks & Recreation Master Plan the PoCo Trail was identified as a most
valuable and important amenity for the residents of Port Coquitlam. There was a strong
recommendation for its continued development and upgrading to continue it as a major
recreation feature in Port Coquitlam. As well, the Master Plan recommended that linkages
to the various trails throughout the City be created and the issue of bicycle paths be
addressed.
