Backqround & Comments:

On February 20th, 1985, a meeting was held at Hyde Creek Centre with representatives from the District of Coquitlam, Port Moody, Fine Arts Council Building Committee and the Port Coquitlam Parks & Recreation Committee. Representatives from Belcarra and Electoral Area 'B' were also invited but they were unable to attend. The purpose of the meeting was to look at the question of a regional cultural centre and how to get the various political bodies to come together. It was agreed that the first step would be to have a joint resolution sub- mitted to all councils for approval. Those present at the meeting were in full agreement that there was a need to do

a feasibliiity study on a regional cultural centre.
