Prior to passage of the foregoing resolution, the members of Council generai-

ly agreed that representatives of the Port Coquitlam Amateur Athletic Association

who were in attendance this evening should be permitted to Speak to the proposed

rental increases; whereupon Mr. A. Davies and Mr. G. Barrett, speaking on behalf

of the Minor Heckey Association and the Amateur Athletic Association, respectively
eo" made in turn a presentation, advising that the new rates would result in in-

creased registration fees and pointing out that members of the Amateur Athletic

Association volunteer their time and effort to provide financial assistance for

the various sports involved. Members of Council generally indicated they were

appreciative of the Situation, but advised that although every effort was made

to continue with the present rates, it was determined this would not be possible

in view of the increased costs of operation and other factors.

ment were minor; however, with Tespect to Item 5, which previously simply. stated
that the City shall insure the building, furniture and equipment, more specific
yinstructions have been added; also, Item 8 has been amendea by the addition of
the last sentence making it clear that the facility shall be available for the
school for haif the total hours that the pocl is in operation and Item 9 has been
amended by adding the provision that no charge shall be made to pupils participa-
ting in school sponsored programs. With respect to Item 11, this section was

drafted by the Department, as the original agreement contained wording that pro-

posed payout to the Board based on depreciative value, which was not acceptable

to the Department or the Board.
