Tenure

The SSGC, Since 1985, has leased Douglas Island from its owners,
Canadian Forest Products Ltd. (Canfor). The lease is subject to
annual renewal, and the club is responsible for maintaining the
igland's power plant, dock and facilities. The SSGc is also
obliged to fulfill a caretaker function on Douglas Island, which

1S private property.

Ganeral Comments

Since 1985, the SSGC has devoted a great amount of time, energy
and resources to Douglas Island. To date, there has not been any
life safety related incident on the island. Furthermore, and to
the best of our knowledge, there have been no complaints from
neighbours in Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam or Surrey.

Given that Douglas Island is private property and leased to one
entity only, combined with its relatively difficult access, we
believe that the opportunity to carry on club activities could

continue without public safety g¢
