THE CORPORATION OF THE
CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM

MEMORANDUM

TO: City Administrator March 12,
FROM: City Engineer

SUBJECT: Fencing along Dyke Right~of-Way ~ Public Works
Committee March 10, 1987

Recommendation

That the conditions agreed to by Council for the granting
of a lease for City property alongside the dyke be amended to
allow the fence to be located at the top of the slope rather
Than ten feet from the toe of the slope.

Backgraund and Comments:

Council previously approved the negotiation of a lease with
the owner of the industrial property located between the Mary
Hill Bypass and the dyke in return for sandfill which was
placed up against the dyke. Fhe approval included the
conditions that a fence be placed ten feet trom the toe of the
Sfope in order to allow the City access along the dyke. The
Public Works Committee has now determined that this access
would not be necessary since the fili will bring the level of
the land to within four feet of the top of the dyke. Placing
the fence at the top of the dyke wil! provide more space for
use by the lessee and will not harm the City's use of the top.
of the dyke. The terms of the tease should, however, require
that the lessee maintain the slope of the dyke behind the fence
in addition to any other requirements to the lease.

City Engineer
