THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM

The intent of changing the date for the Port Coquitlam May Day
is. that.we continually conflict with the Hyack Festival in New
Westminster and this, in effect, also affects the entrants into
our parade. The Hyack Festival now will be holding their festi-

val the last full weekend in May.

Attached please find the 1982 May Day Bueget. As can be seen,
the budget did go over the anticipated amount; however, it was
felt. that this money was well spent considering it was the 60th
May Day for Port Coquitlam. Some of this over expenditure is
due to City labour which was spent on the float and that the
float went to many more parades than it has in the past years.

The increase to $4,500 for the Co-ordinator is being proposed

as this person is working from January to well past May Day, due
to the fact that the float is also entered in the P.N.E. Parade.
The many hours put in by the Co-ordinator on weekends and even-

ings does warrant the proposed salary.
