THE GAL NEXT DOOR Metro roads and traffic department and the Ontario Department of Highways have been asked to report to Metro executive on the wisdom of having a police station in the bridge structure. Metro police department is under the impression, from examining the plans that adequate' parking could be provided for the police station. "For all we would really lose there is no point in spraying," Mr. Savage says. The department doesn't have the equipment or the manpower available anyway to do the work. Metro Chairman William Allen said he had grave doubts about the wisdom on incorporating a police station in the bridge. The big problem was parking facilities. The same question comes up for proposed shops 'within the bridge structure. The problem develops when during boulevard or street spraying the spray gets on the housewive’s laundry,' the motorist's windshield or the picture window in the house. As Parks Commissioner Al Savage explained it the department never has done any spraying because "of the cost and the complaints." "We would like to spray, to kill bugs but there would also be a lot of complaints," he explained. York Mayor Jack Mould last week said that every time Metro police looked around for a suitable police station site in. the borough it meant expropriation of houses. "This they backed away from," he told Metro executive committee. York Board of Control last week endorsed a Parks and Recreation Committee decision that the parks department need not enter into a tree spraying service. Metro police commission expressed interest recently in incorporating the police station in the Eglinton bridge over the Spadina expressway - subway route. The police station would use space in the mezzanine level where shopping facilities were planned. There is an indication that York Parks Department may find bugs a little easier to contend with than people. At approximately eleven-thirty Sunday night Mrs. M.

Immediately she pulled the alarm and: called another nurse to her assistance then between them they grabbed a fire hose and turned it on the fire. Mr. Mitchell told York Board of Control last week that it was becoming a problem to collect the impost. He said a civic employee has to be taken off other work "to go chasing after the' impost York is haying trouble collecting sewer imposts from developers.
