. MEMO
February 19th 74
. To The Chairman
Re Moaguito Control

o

At the December 19th meeting of the Administration Board it was
resolved that the District would request supplementary letters patent
to undertake the function of Mosquito Control for the municipalities
previously in the Fraser Valley Mosquito Control Board if such

municipalities were agreeable,

Of the six minicipalities previously

in the Board; four, Surrey, New Westminster, Port Coquitlam, and
Coquitlam, have agreed to participate and Burnaby and Delta have

deciined to participate.

This function would be carried out in conjunction with the three
other Fraser Valley Regional Districts. It vould now seem appropriate

1) For the Director of Administration to apply for the
Supplementary Letters Patent.

For the District to ask each of the member municipalities
who expect to participate to nominate a member for a comittee
to carry out co-ordinating arrangements with the other Regional —

2)

Districts.

Both of these may take some time and it is recommended that they

proceed together so that there is time to complete arrangements for

the 1974 mosquito season.
