January: 28th, 1974 /5,

Prior to passage of the resolution stated above, Alderman Traboulay expressed
his opposition to the construction of strata title units in the City at a time when
rental housing was ‘in such short supply and he stated his view that a housing stock.

for lower income families should be provided on a subsidized basis if necessary.
Alderman Laking stated that in his ‘opinion it was not fair to simply require that
all apartments be rented, as Alderman Traboulay seemed to be proposing, but that

this view should extend to houses and other forms of accommodation as: well, Alderman

Keryluk stated that it was apparent from the report of the Planning & Zoning Commit~
tee that if strata title type of development was not approved, then the building
would not be constructed and he stated his view that it was better to have 15 strata
title units than have no units at all constructed. Alderman Ranger advised that the
question of subsidization of rentals raised by Alderman Traboulay was a matter for
the Federal and Provincial Governments to consider.

"had considered ‘a letter from the Coquitlam Hospital Society requesting that the
Counc il budget funds for the Society to assist in expenses during the planning
stage of the: Coquitlan Hospital construction, and that this request is also being
forwarded to Coquitlam, Port, Moody ai 4 to Electoral Area B representatives. The
Committee, in its report, further advised that the City's representative to the

© nocicty, Mrs. M. Angus, had explained that the B.C. Hospital Insurance Service
approves certain coss which are shared 60/40 between the B.C.H.1.8. and the
Greater Vancouver Regional District; however, during the planning phase of the
hospital progran, which is estimated to be four years including 1977; the Society
expects 1 to be short approixmately $3,000.00 per year in n meeting excess costs over
and above what Victoria will approve, and the Society is therefore Tequesting the
component municipalities to assist in the overage: further, that as the basis of
cost has not been proposed, the Connittee suggests that the bospital assessment
base for each municipal component be used and although the 1974 figures are not
available, the breakdown would be approximately as follows:
ATCA Bevecrevscsccecser eed 270.00
Port Moody...seeseseeveeseS 420.00
Port Coquitlam...........$ 630.06

@ ; Alderman Traboulay stated that. the words "and provded the other component

areas approve their share of. the cost'' where these words appear in the second to

the last paragraph of the recommendation should. be removed, and to this the

Council agreed.
