changed accordingly, and the question was then called on the following mo-
tion made in replacement of that previously proposed:

"That the No Parking restrictions on Cedar Drive from Wright Avenue to

AND THAT "No Parking - 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 an. and 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m."

REPORTS:

Mayor Campbell From Mayor J.M. Campbell, March 7th, 1974, reporting as the Regional

re Reg.District
Director for Port Coquitlam, stating his disappointment in the performance
of the Greater Vancouver Regional District generally, and mentioning in par-
ticular, the parks purchasing policy which makes very much use of expropria-

ted he agreed with the remarks contained in the report to a certain extend,
commenting that the method of expropriation used is deplorable as people are
not even given a price on their property, and that he is dissatisfied with
the Regional Parks set-up generally. Alderman Reryluk stated his view that

poses, and that he did not think acquisition for Regional Parks fits into
this category. Alderman Mabbett stated his concurrence with the remarks
made by the two previous speakers, and proposed the following resolution:
