CFC CON1'ROL STRATEGIES

The Committee reviewed a letter from Mayor Copeland of Burnaby which
suggested that the City should consider passing a bylaw similar to

Burnaby's for the purpose of regulating the re"overy of CFC's prior to
product servicing and/or disposal. The Deputy Engineer advised the
Committee members of the work currently being undertaken by the GVRD CFC
Control Strategy Regional Task Force i.ncluding development of municipal
purchasing policies, public and industry information programs, systems for
collection of CFC's from the domestic refrigeration waste stream and
automotive air conditioners, as well as the development of a Regional CFC
Control Bylaw. The task force intends to present a report to the Regional
Board at their November meeting which will include a draft of the bylaw.

MININDN CARE STANDARDS FOR HARBORING WILDLIFE

The Committee noted that the City Clerk has advi.sed that it would be
possible for Council to regulate the keeping of squirrels, skunks, and
raccoons and to define areas i.n which they may be kept. The Coirmittee
recommends that the Animal Control Bylaw be amended to incorporate the
guidelines contained in the Ministry of Environment's Policy Guide to the
Wildlife Act for squirrels, skunks, and raccoons which are exempt from the
permitting procedures of that Act.

LITTER CON1'ROL

The Committee reviewed a letter sutmitted by Mr. Len Cuddefcrd offering
some ideas for an anti-litter education program he was hoping

to implement in the City's elementary schools. While the Committee

members supported his idea, they felt that this item was more
appropriately dealt with by the joint City/School Board Liai.son

cmmlttee, and resolved to refer the letter to that committee for
consideration.
