Mr. Derek Ashford, representing the Developer, stated that the developer
was aware that the area was presently being used by dirt bikers but as the
development proceeded it would put an end to that. He stated that the
developer was proposing, east of Eastern Drive, that the right of way be used
for rear yard use only. He stated that the continuation of Eastern Drive
through the new development would produce very little impact on existing
residences as the traffic would go south down Eastern Drive to the Mary Hill
Bypass. He advised that the developer intended to upgrade Mary Hill Road for
the length of the developments frontage on that street. He stated that there
would be a restrictive covenant registered controlling slope and earth
containment on all the properties and a neighborhood scheme of landscaping
would be implemented. Mr. D. Barr, one of the principles in the Development
Company, stated that the areas west of Eastern Drive down to Mary Hill Read
would .atain their tree cover.

Mr. K. Townsend, 1430 June Crescent; Mr. T. Zipp, 1360 Mary Hill Road;

parking or other purposes.

Mr. L. Jones, 1520 Elinor Crescent, stated his opposition to any change

ia the College Park area of Port Moody and he advised that the "Westhill
Apartment" constructed there had reduced the value of surrounding property.

Ms. R. Ewing, 1310 Eastern Drive, stated that at the recent Public
Information Meeting different information was given out than is presently
