(3)receipt of the following communication (September 1, 1998) from Mr.FarisShammas, Executive Director,
Canadian Plastics Industry Association, Toronto:
"October 1, 1998, from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. the Canadian Plastics Industry Association will be hosting he inauguration
of the massive ecological plastic-based sculpture nearing completion at Taylor Creek Park (near Don Mills Road and the
DVP). We will be inviting the sponsors, production team and others who have supported the development of the artwork
over the past four years. Media and representatives from local and provincial government will attend as well. We anticipate
approximately 150 guests.
In celebration of the completion of "the Elevated Wetlands" we wish to propose a toast during the inauguration to all
concerned. For this reason we are applying for a liquor license. A 20" x 30" tent has been ordered in case of inclement
weather. Appropriate fencing will be provided according to the licensing regulations. A map of the area and the proposed
location of the tent is attached. If location A proves to be muddy as a result of high rainfall, we will set up the tent in
location B instead.
Sparkling wine will be ordered for the toast. No other liquor will be served. No cash will be collected for drinks or food
served. Glasses for the toast will be served by the caterers to invited guests for a limited time before and during the toast
only.
In compliance with the Special Occasion Permit we wish to notify you of this occasion. We are gratified to see the
culmination of this functioning sculpture, which we anticipate will become a living legacy. Its realization has truly been a
result of extraordinary corporate and community collaboration and support in-king towards the materials, service and
expertise required.
