Alderman P.P, Ranger Page 2 June 23, 1976 We feel quite strongly that 4 city of our size and the taxpayers vho support it, are entitled to an alternative to the ?.C.A.A.A. At the present tine, our clud has registered spptoxinately 69 beys . and we are requesting the sane $5.09 grant per boy, as is given to the PB.C.A.A.A. Our club feels that ve are entitled to this grant, since each of the parents of the boys registered to our club are taxpayers -in Port Coquitlam, and each of them have Sad to purchase menderships in the P.C.A.A.A. {who receives a grant from Counc!? of $5.09 per boy or family), in order to participate in other sporting events. As s taxpayer and parent, I personally object to poying a 58.00 nender— ship fee to the P.C.A.A.A., and then having to pay another fee for 2y children to participate in specific sports. Im adcition to this 2 bees portion of ny property taxes ($5.00) are alloted tc support an organization that I am opposed to. In shore Sir, we are a viable and progressive, orgenization itke th: P.C.A.A.A., and are asking for the sane portion of our tax conies as aye granted to the P.C.A.A.4. We look forward to receiving your reply, with intevest. Sincerely, A. bushel Barrie MacDonald Secretary
