notbe themost cost-effectiveuseofCoquitlamresidents’taxdollars but they are stillimportant amenities for thecommunity.Thatwas themessage from
severalCoquitlamcouncillorsMondayafter city staff pre-sentedadraft aquatic servicesstrategy. The report called forupgrades to Spani andEagleRidgeoutdoorpools but didnot outline a replacement forthedecommissionedoutdoorRochester Pool.Parks staff noted in apre-
sentation to council thatmostMetrovancouvermunicipali-ties arephasingout outdoorpoolsmainly because they areexpensive tomaintain andcanonlybeused for a fewmonthseachyear.but severalCoquitlam
councillors expresseddisap-pointment at the findings, not-ingoutdoorpools havebeenimportant communityhubs formanyneighbourhoods.“Cost effectiveness is very
important but it is not theonly thing,” saidCoun.ChrisWilson. “Sometimes,weneedto lookatwhat is best for differ-ent parts of our communities.”Last summer, councilwas
presentedwith a 531-namepetition fromMaillardvilleresidentswanting anoutdoorpool in the area. The loss ofRochester Pool, thepetitionersargued,meant familieshadto travel somedistance to getto Spani or the indoorpoolat Poirier Sport andLeisureComplex.Coun.MaeReid concurred
withWilson, sayingoutdoorpools are cheapandconve-
nient for youngpeoplewhohavemore timeon their handsduring the summermonths.The staff report calls for six
newsprayparks in thenext 15years, tobe locatedatGlen,Rochester and fourotherparksthat have yet tobedetermined.Reidnoted thatwhile sprayparks and leisurepoolsmayappeal to smaller children,older teenagersmaybe lessenthusiastic.“Thekids that aremost at
risk tomeare the kids that arebetween10and19,” she said. “Ijust don’t think a spraypark isgoing todo it for them.”Coun.bonitaZarrillo also
weighed-in, noting that thenewstrategy calls for clusteringaquatic amenities into a smallhandful of service areas. asthe city pushes to reduce thenumberof vehicle tripswithinits borders, shequestionedwhy the citywasbuilding“infrastructurewhereweareforcingpeople intomore cars,”she said.but several councillors
agreedwith staff and the rec-ommendations in the report.Coun.brentasmundson
notedoutdoorpools cost toomuchmoney for anamenitythat canonlybeuseda fewmonthsof the year.Spraydecks, he added, can
turn intouseful park amenitiesevenwhen thewater is turnedoff, offering aplace for peopleto sit and relaxduring coolermonths.Coun.Terryo’Neill agreed
withasmundson,noting themoneyused topay for outdoorpools couldbe spent oname-nities that areopenall year.Healsohadconcerns about
council questioning the re-search findings of the city’sprofessional staffmembers
andhired consultants.“I think that if we start em-
bracing decisions based onmore of an emotional aspectthan hard facts and figures,then I thinkwe are goingdown a dangerous path,”o’Neill said. “I wouldn’t wantto do that.”Monday’s report noted that
indoorpool usagehas seenan increaseof close to 100,000swims since 2011and that be-tween theCityCentreaquaticComplex and thePoirierSport andLeisureComplex,Coquitlam is at 89%capacity.The twooutdoorpools—Spani andEagleRidge—areat 72%capacity andusagehasdeclined in recent years.

Theother six parameters— includingdissolvedoxygen, temperature, turbidity, E. coli, total ironand totalzinc—were listed as “satisfactory.”as a result of the report, council voted in favourof amo-
tion to reduce testing fromoncea year to every other year(councillorsbonitaZarrillo andCraigHodgewereopposedto the reduction in testing).The citywillmaintain its yearly sampling for total sus-
pended solids andwill expand its continuous turbiditymonitoring at two sites along the river for at least one year.Turbiditywas considerablyhigher in 2014 than in2013
and2012but it is difficult to what the reasons arewith sucha limited sample size, according to the report.

the kindof significantpublic policy consider-ations, suchasmentalhealth concerns and theneed to address them,thatRiverviewhas.
(further, Riverview ispublic property, not pri-vate, so thepublic processshould take longer.)Somemayeven say
flavelle’s developmentwas inevitable and, thus,gettingonwithplanningis a good thing comparedto, say, the Ioco lands,
whichhavehistorical andenvironmental concerns,andwhere thedeveloperis taking its time. (Thefact that IocoRoad isinadequate for develop-ment there is also slowingthingsdown.)butmakenomistake,

Why not go hiking if yourmother loves the great out-doors? Try an outing on bikes orhorses, or simply go for a picnicin a beautiful setting.
• Pamper her taste buds. For afoodie mom, there’s nothinglike a meal together at herfavourite restaurant or at a newone she’s been longing to try. Ifshe likes to cook, why not treather to a cooking workshop.She’ll love sharing the experi-ence with you.
• Take care of her. Is your mommore the type to enjoy a relax-ing day at the spa or a beautyday with a manicure, pedicure,makeup and hair-do on the
menu? Indulge her!• Enjoy a bit of culture. Go to a mu-seum, art gallery, movie, circus, con-cert or stand-up comedy show. There’s
no lack of ideas to spoil your mom.She’s always got her nose in a book?Take her to browse around a book-store where you can buy her a book,and then end the day in a nice littlerestaurant.
• Treat her to a new experience. If sheloves an adrenalin rush, a day of rockclimbing or skydiving is sure to thrill
her. Or, opt fora peaceful flightin a hot air balloon atsunset or dawn. What-ever you choose to dowith your mother — a round of golf, aphoto session, a walk in the park or ashopping spree — what’s important isthat she has a nice time with you.
Treat your mom to a special outing
Biking, a spa day, a cookingworkshop or going to the movies:
what sort of outing would yourmother enjoy?

Mother’s Day is almost here and you’restill searching for the perfect gift,
one that will make your mother’s eyesshine with delight? Don’t get discour-aged. Here are some suggestions thatcould inspire you.• Jewelry, the ultimate in fashion ac-cessories, is always popular. A greatway to express your love is to have anaffectionate message engraved inside abeautiful ring. There are also all kinds
of heart-shaped pendants and earringsthat are perfect for saying “I love you,Mom.”
• How about a gift to fuel one of yourmother’s passions. Watch her glow withhappiness when she realizes you’vegiven her tickets to a show starringher favourite singer, a subscription toa specialized magazine, a book by arecommended author, a boxed DVD setof a TV show she likes, kitchen acces-
sories or a gift certificate for a new pairof shoes. You know your mother wellenough to identify what she loves most.
• Some gifts can’t be bought, but they’reno less valuable for all that. So youcould help her out by preparing aweek’s worth of meals or washing allher windows — you know how muchshe hates that particular chore. Orsimply spend the day with her; go outfor a walk together, watch her favourite
movies or playsome boardgames. If you reallydon’t know whatwould please yourmother most, take hershopping
a few days before Mother’s Day and takenote of what catches her eye. Then youcan go back without her to buy theperfect gift.
