Item #2 - Justice Building Trailer
R.C.M.P. Office Accommodation

In late 1979, as a result of the need for extra
office accommodation to house R.C.M.P. personnel, the
District, in conjunction with the City of Porr Coquitlam,
located a trailer adjacent to the Justice Building on
Christmas Way.

The cost of the facility and its Placement was
as: followa:

Trailer (including tender ad) $15,841.20
Services: .
B.C. Talephone- $,710.00
Electrical Connection ' 675.06
Gravel 58.54
" Sewer & Wecar Connections 3268.71

2712.25
Total : $18,553.45

The City of Port Coquitlam contributed towards
the cost of the facility and paid 33.925%, which amounted
to $6294.26,

_— AS 8 result of the removal of the Court Facilities
from. the Justice Building, space bacama available for
housing. the R.C.M.P, Personnel totally within the Justice
Building proper which means. that the trailer is no longer
required end it was vacated on February 18, 1983.

It would be prudent, in my opinion, to not leave
the trailer in its present location because of possible
vandalism and: I believe, therefore, that it should be
removed at the earlieat possible date.

; T have requested, and recoivad, a report from the
Purchaging Agent which. indicates that the market value
of tha trailar would be. between $18,500 and $19,000,
depending upon market conditions at the time it is offered
for sale.

At the moment, with the current economic slump
in the construction industry, there is little damand for
such a facility for contractors’ temporary use and
apparently there is at present an abundance of unsold
construction type trailers on the market.

T am of the opinion that, regardless of what the
market appears to be. like, we will only be able to deter-
mine if a market oxists by attempting to sell the facility

“and to do 20 SY placing the trailer out for bid.
