Mr. R.A. Freeman,

City Clerk,

The Corporation of the City of Port Coquitiam,
Port Coquitlam, B.C.

Dear Sir:

: Re: Arnott-Kidd #2 Transmission Line

: On behalf of members of Oelta Council, 1! would respect-
fully request that you bring the following subject to the attention
of your Councll for thalr consideration and possible: endorsation.
The foregoing request is being made by Delta, to all members of the
Lower Mainland Municipat Association, since it is considered that a
simtiar. situation will confront all Municipalities within the Lower
Maintand.

B.C. Hydro and Power Authority Is proposing to construct
an overhead transmisston line from its Arnott substation [In Delta, to
the Kidd substation tn Richmond near the Oak Street bridge. The rcuvte

- taken by the transmission Line runs parallel to highway number 499,

which highway is the main entrance for traffic entering the City of

. Vancouver both trom the U.S.A. and from Vancouver Island. Therefore,
Delta has taken the position that such a facillty should be placed
underground.
