It is predicted that 40 per- cent of all dwelling units in Metro within " years will be apartments and since young families are having dit- ficulty obtaining houses the trend toivard three-bed- room apartments will swing upward.

Also marked for future high density apartment development is Bathurst St. right up to Finch Ave. in Nut]: York. Apartment development is s key issue in the bo- roughs of York, North York and Etobicoke in one im- portant respect. The new borough councils should be called upon to make sure that adequate planning and zoning protection exists for existing single family resi- dential areas. There is nothing more heart breaking than to see a 10 to 20 story apartment building tower- ing over I neighboring bungalow. The problem of ade- quate underground parking for both tenants and guests must also be considered. In some ways a poorly laid out apartment project today carrbe as much trouble as the {indium were to the log cabin settlers back in the old an. _ lit the future the plan- ners see the rate of apart- ment development in York being at the same pace as that in the city and perhaps I little greater than in North York. Apartment de. velopment, it is expected. will move at the slowest rate in the new borough of Etobicoke. The quality of building materials and even Archi- tecture and landscaping are also matters that should concern the new borough councils.

Recognizing that Metro power has increased tremendously since its inception 13 years ago. it is clear that Metro claims I Inger end larger percentage of the tax dollar paid by us in North York. It becomes equally clear then that for In effective and efficient municipal government. much more cooperation is needed be, tween intro. and the borough of North York.
