Re: Resional Transnortation es 2a G.V.R.D. Function
Dear Sir:

On Decerber 3, 1971 I sent you a number of copies of the amended Policy
Statement which was adopted by the Regional Board at its November 17 y 1971.
meeting. At that time, I also steted that we were preparing to initiate
negotiations with the Provincial Governzent for the purpose of wor'cing out,

a satisfactory financial formula. To date, preliminary meetings have been
held with the Honourable Dan Campbell and the Honourable W.K.Kiernan. It-is
also planned to have an exploratory discussion with B.C. Hydro officials
within the next few days.

However, before entering into lengthy negotiations which wisl lead to a
total financiel formule, it is deemed advisable, in accordance with the first
step described on Page 7 of the amended Policy Statement, to ask each member
mnicinality whether it is prevared to accept the amended Policy Statement and
is prepared to participate in a Regional Transportetion Function, subject to
terms and conditions to be developed.

Now that your Council has had an opportunity to consider this District’s
report on Regional Transportation es a C.V.R.D. Finction, including the amended
Policy Statement, I should appreciate it, if you will advise me if your Council
is prepared to agree in principle to participate in a Regional Transportation
Function, subject to terms and conditions which will be developed and brougat
back to the Board and the individuel member municipalities for ratification.

Yours truly,
