ITEM I

Re: Public Works Budget - Highways Grant

It was reported that we had received approval from
the Minister of Municipal Affairs for cost-sharing on the
Kingsway Avenue reconstruction but that our application for
Prairie Avenue construction was not approved due to insufficient
funds. As the lack of cost-sharing by Highways reduces our
revenues by $86,500, the Committee recommends that the widening
and resurfacing of Prairie Avenue not take place this year but
that the construction of storm sewer and sidewalk on the north
side between Newberry Street and Cedar Drive be done this year
at an estimated cost of $58,000. This amount would be available
from our share of the total funds without requiring an increase
in the budget.

ITEM ITI
Re: STOP Sign at Lombardy and Cedar Drive

Lombardy Avenue has now been paved and building is
taking place along the street. It is necessary to have a STOP
sign at the intersection of Lombardy with Cedar Drive and the
Committee recommends that this be approved. -

ITEM IIT

Re: Secondary Highways Designation

Due to the construction of the Mary Hill By-Pass, a
section of secondary highway no. 210B which consists of Trenton
and Kingsway Avenue between the Lougheed Highway and the Tri-Line
entrance is being eliminated. This section is being incorporated
in proposed arterial highway designated no. 673R which consists
of the Mary Hill By-Pass Highway from the Lougheed Highway to
Broadway Street. The remainder of our present secondary highway
