REPORT

TO: B.R. Kirk, City Administrator

FROM: K. Janna Taylor, Recreation Director

SUBJECT: 1986 Summer Games

RECOMMENDATION:

That the bid for the 1986 Summer Games not be entertained by
District #43 communities.

BACKGROUND & COMMENTS:

Please see attached Minutes. Council may recall that last year
an inter-municipal task force, made up of the Directors from
District #43 Municipalities, was struck to look into the feasi-
bility of jointly hosting the 1986 Summer Games. The original
request for the 1986 Summer Games came_from the Port Moody City
Council. The reason for looking at 1986 is that it marks the
Centennial year of the first trans-continental train arrival in
the City of Port Moody. As indicated in the report of the task
force, one of the major concerns is that the present economic
situation definitely prohibits the communities in District #43

entertaining such a venture.”
