Re; Family Month and Provincial Counter Attack Programme

The Juvenile and Family Service Division of the Attorney-~General's
Department are working with the Family Month Committee on publicity for
the Province's Counter Attack Programme. This is the programme to
combat. drinking and driving.

I have received the attached letter from one of their officers
asking for permission to erect some 4' x 8' plywood signs on a temporary
basis to advertise the programme during Family Month which is in May. A
smail sample of their proposed sign is. attached along with a list of
suggested locations.

If these signs are placed on private property they would be permissible
under the Sign By-law, however, if they are located on City road allowance,
they require Council's permission.

Some of the locations noted are perhaps not appropriate due to the

lack of space on the road allowance. Location No. 1 is in the District
of Coquitlam, location Nos. 4, 6, and 10 are perhaps appropriate as
there is room to place a sign. In addition appropriate locations might
be the City-owned vacant lot on the northeast corner of the Pitt River -
Shaughnessy intersection and the northeast corner of Shaughnessy and
Lougheed, near Superior Signs.
