Parking Meters Topic | In Various Cities Opposed In Guelph While Windsor Finds Delivery Delayed From One Firm To Begin Operation In Owen Sound -- Guelph, July 25~Cuelph's new traffic by-law would authorize en- forcement of parking meters here, failed to receive third reading at a special meeting of the city council this afternoon. The council, by a five to three majority, instructed the city solicitor to ask for tenta- tive approval by the Department of Highways of the measure which was given first and second reading and passed the committee of the whole stage, when the four alder- men who were absent return from their vacation, Sponsors of the by- law expect, they will have enough votes to override the three dissen- ters and secure the necessary maj ority of two-thirds of the whole council. Council re-wrote an entire sec- tion of the by-law dealing with taxi cab stands and the measure now provides that stands shall be al- located by the 'council on recom- mendation of the chief of police as to location and space, Permits for taxi parking space shall be issued annually and may be cancelled at any time for infractions of regula- tions, if such action is recommend. ed by the chief of police. Rates for parking space for taxi firms And buses were increased drastical- ly as compared with the original by=- law, Taxi firms must pay $24 per car per year, instead of the orig. inal provision of $9 per year for a nine-foot space. Bus companies must pay $3 per lineal foot for bus stops in the downtown parking area, A new clause inserted by the al- deinen pronoits 0aAINg ur Wale ferring materials {rom one vehicie to another on a public street except in a case of emergency. Meanwhile four hundred parking meters are being instaded on down- town streets, in accordance with a by-.aw passed by the council early this year, Two policemen have been detailed to eaucate citizens in their use for a 30-day perioa. Windsor Meters Delayed Winasor, July 20~Control board yesterday unanimously approved a motion by Controller Tom Brophey that the city cierk wire the Mark Time Meter Co. to find if the com- pany is prepared to dellve § parke ing meters tor nsiailation on city streets. Pians were completed in April for a test installation of 98 meters from Mi-Co Meter (Canada) Ltd, on Pitt from the Mark Time Ltd. on Pitt street 'and Oulette avenue, The meters were to be installed simul- taneously. Mi-Co, Meter Ltd, have notified the city engineer that they are pre- pared to carry out installation of their meters, but Mark Time Ltd. have been unable to fulfil the terms of contract. In accordance with certain terms of operation to be approved by city council, the shipment and installa- tion of meters was to be made with in 30 days from the date of the city's registered approval, instead of from the date of contract. The termg of operation, as a proved by city council, were impli- cit in the contract signed with the Mark Time Co.

A communication to control board from J. A, Cameron, president, Mi- Co. Meter (Canada) Ltd, Mont- real, informed the board that his company is prepared to instal me- ters immediately providing the city is prepared to place a further order with them, excluding the Mark Time meter, The delay in the installation of meters was caused by a difference in city council during recent months over the merits of various parking meters to supply meters for simul taneous installation on a twelve months' trial basis. Defending the failure of the Mark Time Co. to supply meters as premised, Controller Brophey said: "In these days of shortages there is every reason why an order may not be filled." Controller Gordon B. Ellis sug- gested that the contract with the Mi-Co. be cancelled, but was secon- parking spaces for tourists.

It was ted out that at pres- ent the City of Oshawa has to bear 25 per cent of the maintenance cost of the section of this road as far north as Raglan. It was felt that this was an unfair burden in view of the fact that the city is required to pay entirely for the upkeep of No. 2 Highway within its boundar- les.

LYDON EILERS WILLIAM the parking meters in Owen Sound, in accordance with the by-law passed by the Oity Council, had been received and the meters will be placed officially in operation on Monday morning next, July 29. Acting Mayor Brown stated that he wished it understood that the chief object of the meters is the orderly regulation of motor traffic in the city, and not simply a mon- ey-making scheme, although it is hoped that the city will benefit financially, He emphasized the hope that the people of the city would give their whole-hearted co- operation in the efforts of the city to regulate the traffic and if this was done there would be no diffi- culfy, The present agreement is for one year only and if the city is not satisfied at the end of that time it can order the meters re- moved at no cost to the city, The city will receive 26 per cent of the proceeds the first year, the remain- Ing 75 per cent going to the com- pany installing the meters to pay for their cost. Once the meters are paid for, all proceeds go to the city. Liked In Barrie Welland, July 25. -- Passing through Barrie whfle on vacation during the past week, Alderman Britain Phillips took time out to question Barrie meschants on their opinion of parking 'meters which were installed in that town at about the same time as in Welland, The Barrie merchants, stated Al- derman Phillips, seemed unanimous in the opinion that the meters had increased business in that town. They stated, man Phillips, that previous to their installation, there had been no WITH THE TIRES ON YOUR TRUCK IF. YOU DRIVE ON GOODJ'YEAR TRUCK TIRES DEALER Ontario Motor Sales !
