November 29th, 1976

Alderman Keryluk drew attention to the speeding problem on Burns
Road, and he suggested that the R.C.M.P. be requested to investigate the
situation and report back to Council as to what appropriate action could
be taken.

Alderman Ranger advised that on inquiring of Mayor Campbell as to
whether or not he would be in accord with having his name put forward
for the position of Chairman of the Greater Vancouver Regional District
in 1977, he had stated he would be, and the following motion was then
proposed:

Moved by Alderman Ranger:

Seconded by Alderman Traboulay:

That the Municipal Council of The Corporation of the City of Port

Coquitlam endorse the candidacy of Mayor J.M. Campbell for the position

of Chairman of the Greater Vancouver Regional District for 1977.
Carried.

Alderman Ranger drew attention to some confusion that exists over
whether the name of a street in the City is Larkspur Drive or Larkspur
Avenue, stating that the Engineering and Tax Department use "Larkspur
Avenue" while the Post Office and Electoral listings use “Larkspur
Drive", and he requested that the situation be investigated with a
report back to Council thereon.

Alderman Laking stated he would like a full report on the status of
the proposed Huntington Rubber industrial development, as apparently

nothing has been done since the rezoning was completed, and Acting-Mayor

Alderman Thompson requested the Administration and Engineering Departments

to attend to this matter.

Acting~Mayor Alderman Thompson commented on the inconveniences
caused to motorists by road construction on Kingsway, the Oxford Street
and Coast Meridian Road-Lougheed Highway intersections, Victoria Drive,
etc., and the City Engineer advised that most of this work has now been
completed.

At his request, the reporters representing the Coquitlam Herald,

the Progress, The Columbian, and the Coquitlas. Express, then introduced

\. / themselves to the meeting.
