Metro ordered it paid last week but the total bill for what was no more than a family squabble was over $13,000. This of course comes out of the taxpayers pocketbook. Metro rents out property, usually houses, it buys and intends to tear down or clear later to make way for a municipal project. The trouble is, it always has people who fail to pay the rent. Metro has been using skip tracers but last week had to admit to giving up on trying to collect $1,764 in back rent. Metro intends to hire a university professor at $125 a day for 50 days to prepare a number of broâ€" chures on air pollution control which will be distriâ€" buted to architects, contractors and the public in general. It was a Weston mayor, Richard Seagrave, who first had the idea of changing the name of the Lake Shore Expressway to the Gardiner Expressway and got Metro Council to go along with the idea. York Township Reeve Jack Mould last week voted against Metro giving the Yonge Street extension the next rapid transit priority. He sees a Spadina rapid transit line bringing redevelopment to his township. Other township representatives have different views, ranging up to three years. but there is no sign of any hope of withdrawal on the part of Federal authâ€" orities. The discussion on the airport came up when Metro was required to pay a sizeable sum for a small piece of land in the area although its use for buildâ€" ing purposes was restricted by the location of the airâ€" port. North York council members, Reeve James Serâ€" vice, Controllers Gordon Hurlburt and Irving Paisley appeared before Metro executive last week to give strong support for the Yonge rapid transit line exâ€" tension. At the same time, to serve the western part of the township they felt an express bus or streetcar service could be installed on the Spadina Expressway at least as far south as St. Clair Avenue. In a speech last week, Metro Chairman Allen hinted that he wouldn‘t be too satisfied if the city was expanded by the province to take in York Townâ€" ship. He mentioned increased costs as a result of such a step along with unwieldiness and a possible difficulty in reaching conclusive decisions as factors against such a city expansion. â€" LA P as ael o ce e es Final cost of a grade separation under CPR tracks crossing Islington Avenue near Cordova Avenue in Etobicoke has been set at $1,342,000. This was a proâ€" ject started by Etobicoke and taken over by Metro when Metro assumed control of Islington Avenue in 1962 from The Queensway to Albion Road. Yark Township Reeve Jack Mould left his rainâ€" coat in Metro Chairman Allen‘s official car last week. He went back later and picked it up. _ _ Metro will call a contract next Spring for the construction:of a bridge on Eglinton Avenue over the Humber River. Metro was going to let a related conâ€" tract involving placing 30,000 cubic yards of earth on the approaches of the proposed bridge over the river but didn‘t like the contract prices so left the whole matter over until 1966. North York Reeve James Service told Metro ofâ€" ficials last week that he considers it will be at least 10 years before the Federal government is willing to give up Downsview airport for urban development. enBion s e o n e See td Metro works committee finally got out on a subâ€" urban tour this week of various sewage and water plant project and ended up having lunch at Etobiâ€" coke. Metro Chairman Allen is going out of his way these days to play down any thought of a suggested cityâ€"suburban split in thinking and voting in the Metro Council arena. He has some good evidence that it has dropped sharply since he became chairman in 1962. Municipal water rates to householders are higher in North York and Etobicoke than in any of the other Metro municipalities. On their advancement, the Guide Company presented Girl Guide Blazer Crests to the folâ€" lowing girls: Susan Barber, Sharâ€" on Kerrigan, Rosemary Pittis, Nancy Mark, Jackie Smith, Janâ€" ine Teetzel and Connie Harris.
