THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM
-~4-

ITEM V — Continued

prior to January 8th, 1979. It is therefore necessary to get
Council's approval at this time so that the application can
be prepared.

The Committee would like to submit two items for
consideration. for the grant. The first and highest priority
-would be for the construction of Kingsway from the end of the
1978 construction to Broadway. The second item would be the
construction of the section of Eastbank Road which Council
considered previously. It is probably unlikely that both

applications will be approved but it is worth a try.

Respectfully submitted,

F.E. Peters, P. Eng.,
FEP/vw City Engineer.

RE: Downtown Parking

CA). I have received several complaints regarding parking on
McAllister, that mos* of the street is being used for patrons
using and frequenting the Legion premises. Of Course, our parking
is being enforced however, this street is mostly a 2 hour parking
zone with exception of City Hall and the Post Uffice, which is 30
winutes. To alliviate this problem, I suggest we go to a one
hour parking time limit instead of the two hour parking which we

now have.

Bs). Elgin Avenue, between Shaughnessy and Mary Hill Road, is
at present posted two hours parking. May I suggest also that it
be changed to one hour. My reason for this is that we now have

a large office complex on Llgin Avenue, althougin the building has
on site parking for employces, and my understanding is that the
Government will be the biggest occupier with Welfare and liuman
Resourses. With this type of occupancy, we will expect a lot of
Vehicle Traffic Parking. .

(Cc). Mary uill xoad between AcAllister and Elgin Avenue,
parhing on cast side indicates six ‘hour parking. ‘This 1 would
also like te sce changed to one hour parking. The reason is that
we have a new conmercial building located at McAllister and Mary
hild Road, and there will be approximately seven new Lusinesses
located within, one being a butchers shop. Again there is on site
parking, however if we jcave same at six hour parking it will effect
the new occupants, and-no parking for shoppers. It is my opinion
that this {£3 a reasonable request and we should adopt same. We
should took at establishing a complete one hour parking for

downtown.

For your information and consideration.
