As the result of advertising for replacement for the City Engineer,
I can report that 22 applications were received. Approximately eight of
these applicants had Municipal experience and five of these were interviewed.

I have selected for the position, Mr. Fred Peters, who is presently
Traffic Engineer for the District of Surrey. Fred has his Master of Science
Degree in Highway and Traffic Engineering and is a member of the Professional
Engineers’ Association of B.C. He his been employed «rith Surrey for seven
years, being principally involved in Traffic Engineering, but has also been
associated with the Land Development Branch dealing with servicing of land
and is presently involved as Project Manager for the $10,000,000. pre-servicing
project that Surrey is undertaking in the Fleetwood/Guildford area, in
conjunction with the Provincial Government.

Fred comes highly recommended and I am sure that his qualifications
and experience make him a suitable candidate.

Fred is able to start on May lst, 1978 and I would therefore recommend
to Council the appointment of Mr. Fred Peters, P.Eng., as City Engineer for
the City of Port Coquitlam, commencing May Ist, 1978.
