December 13th, 1976

for use as a future school site. Carried.
Aldermen Laking and Traboulay voted against the resolution.

A discussion ensued, and Alderman Thompson stated his view that the
site was a very poor location for a school, and that the moneys would be
better used in constructing a pedestrian footbridge across the Coquitlam
River to provide access for students to existing schools in the vicinity,
and Alderman Mabbett stated his concern that the proposed school would
help to create more traffic problems in the City; however, Alderman
Traboulay pointed out that it may be possible, as mentioned in the
Committee's report, to receive some compensation for the loss of the
land and some solution found for the problems that might arise in the
future servicing thereof. Alderman Ranger commented that the City may
want to use the land in the future, and he also mentioned that he did

not want to donate a school site for the exclusive benefit of a developer

in the District of Coquitlam.
