May 26th, 1975

Alderman Keryluk suggested that Beak Consultants be advised that

the Council requires prior notification of aerial spraying as this must

be authorized.

Alderman Keryluk then referred to copies of an anonymous notice

distributed to members of Council opposing the use of Malathion for
mosquito control, and expressing the view that it "does little to deter

the mosquito which has developed a resistance to malathion", and he

stated he had discussed the use of malathion with the Vector Control
Officer who advised that Dr. Robert Costello, an expert on pest control and
pesticides, had made the statement that in our area there is no such

thing as a mosquito with resistance to malathion.

Alderman Keryluk referred to a copy of a letter received from the
Association of Concerned Citizens to the Greater Vancouver Regional
District suggesting that priority be given to persons in Port Coquitlam
and immediate areas seeking rent available in the proposed renial units
and he suggested that the City support the request of the Association by
forwarding a letter and stating that the Council concurs; however, Mayor
Campbell advised that Mr. Wm. Casson, Director of Housing, G.V.R.D.,
informed him that he had received the letter and that he would endeavour to
comply with the request.

Alderman Ranger referred to his intent stated earlier this evening
to propose resolutions for forwarding to the Union of British Columbia
Municipalities, and these were then made as follows:

Moved by Alderman Ranger:

Seconded by Alderman Traboulay:

That a resolution be forwarded to the Union of British Columbia
Municipalities referring to the fact that mobile homes in some cases get
a tax refund rather than paying taxes, and proposing that the Mobile

Home Act be amended to ensure that mobile homes are fairly and equitably

taxed, Carried.

Hoved by Alderman Ranger:

Seconded by Alderman Laking:

That a resolution be forwarded to the Union of British Columbia
Municipalities proposing that with respect to the Curfew, Section 869(3)
