BDIBKMG BYLAW

The Committee considered the proposed revisions to the Burning Bylaw for the
City of Port Coquitlam. Through various representations from agricultural
landowners in Port Coquitlam,
was determined that some hardship would
befall these people if a strict adherence to the burning of only diseased
organic material was used. The Fire Department is in charge of administering
Burning Permits and with the Burning Permit the Fire Department has the
individual applicant sign a "Burning Permit Rules Form" (see attached) that

it

states that the material is diseased, on-site generated agricultural
material. Some residents are leery of signing such a form, and therefore it
was decided that this form will be eliminated and the Fire Department will
issue the Burning Permit based on verbal information from the applicant.

JOHN SEAGER, DELEGATION REGARDIJR BORNING BYLAW

Seage- explained to the Cozmit tee that he had accumulated organic type
waste since September, 1990, and planned to accumulate it over the winter and
burn it 1n the spring, as he has done for a number of years. The Bylaw change
in January caught him completely off guard, and now he is left with a large
pile of organic material that he has to try to dispose of in an alternate
way. He also suggested that if it was Council's intention to clean up the
including those 1n home
air, that they ban the burning of all wood products, the
enforcement of the
fireplaces. The Committee assured Mr. Seager that
current Bylaw changes would not prohibit him from burning the materials from
his agricultural land which he described in his submissi.on.

that we should consider a system of drop off bins si.tuated
throughout the City on Citywwned Lots where people could drop
their recyclable materials oif.
composting should be a high priority and there should be several
composting sites owned by the City, throughout the City, for use by
the residents.
that prevention of the need for recycling should be as great as the
recycling program. Por example, he suggested we should make a
Bylaw to restrict the use of plastic milk jugs in Port Coquitlam in
favour of glass; further, we could put large deposits on the
various cans and bottles used.
that the type of recycling truck used perhaps could be the same
type as needed for garbage collection.
that the recycling program costs of 416.00 per household for 1991,
and $ 34.00 per household for 1992 were exorbitant and should be
lowered or more closely tied to a user-pay system.
that we could look at collecting one type of material each week,
i.e. glass one week, tin the next, paper the next, etc., thereby
eliminating the need for separation by a Contractor. The household
resident could then be charged extra on a weight basis for the

unrecyclable goods they still have left.

that the Municipality go into a strong educational and advertising
in order to inform the public of the Recycling Program, its
benefits, and how to participate.
that the City look closely at building demolition materials and
where the demolition ends up that perhaps Bylaws could be enacted
to ensure that the Demolition Companies remove the Gyproc and take
it to the recycling plants and further, that after the Demolitiou
