Mayor and Alderman,
City of Port Coquitlam,
2272 McAllister Avenue,
Port Coquitlam, B. C.

Dear Sirs:

The members of the Association of Concerned Citizens, many of whom are
long standing residents of our City, wish to advise you that they, as
well as all other Association members, are strongly in favour of the
retention of the building known as the Agriculatural Hall.

We feel that every effort should be exhausted to secure funds, either from
the Provincial and/or Federal Governments, for the preservation of
this building, as one of the few remaining historical sites in the City of

Port Coquitlam.

Should this topic become one of public debate, rest assured that our
Association is prepared to extend a strong and united fight in order to
have this building preserved. We fully realize that a possible expenditure
of several thousands of dollars may be needed, but at the same time would
urge all members of Council to think most seriously about our rapidly
disappearing heritage and the long standing part that this hall has played
in the history of our citizenssince the time of our incorporation.

Yours truly,

.) Margaret Scott
Secretary.
