Re: Minor Sports Subsidy

In June of lost year the Council adopted a report from the Parks
and Recreation Committee containing several recommendations pertaining to
the organization then known as the Port Coquitlam Junior Athletic Association.
A copy of the committee report is attached and the resolutions passed by
Council at the regular meeting of June 7th, 1971 adopted Items (a) to (d),
inclusive, and Items 1. to 6., inclusive in the report,

item 1 -— in the recommendations authorizes that the Port Coquitlam
Junior Athletic Association be the official representatives for the grant in
aid for minor sports and that this grant be administered by them. ‘the Amateur
Athletic Association has asked that consideration be given to the payment of
the sum included in the 1972 Budget ($6 ,000.) and I would like a resolution
from Council authorizing this sum to be paid.

Ttem 2 = Cost Sharing - Mosquito Control Programme - the resolution
passed by Council authorizing the ground control mosquito programme did not
specifically deal with the exact nature of cost sharing arrangements between
the City and the District. I assumed that as the budget was split £10,000,
for the District and $5,000. for the City, that it would be agreeable to pro~
ceed on the basis of a one-third - two-third division. This will only be of
concern if we spend less than the $15,000. budget. However, the District of
Coquitlam have clarified they are passing a resolution that they share on the
kasis of two-thirds of the cost for the District of Coquitlam up to a maximum
of $10,000. and one-third for the City of Port Coquitlam up to a maximum of

$5,000. I have agreed to have the City act as paymaster for this programme
and have received agreement from the Union that the scheme can commence in

accordance with the Opportunities for Youth scheme proposed by the SPEC

organization.
In order to clarify the matter I would appreciate a resolution of

Council confirming the one-third - two-third split in cost up to a maxinum

of $5,000. for the City of Port Coquitlam.
Item 3 ~- Liaison between Parks Department and Engineering Department —

1 have attached a brief report on the matters requested by Alderman Thompson
