Come in and Enjoy Our Thanksgiving Specials To vary the metaphor, Long installed an oldâ€"time saloonâ€"type swinging door. His office beâ€" came the sounding board for ratepayers‘ beefs and the medium for channeling complaints to the municipal department or council committee which was geared to do something about them. The "p.i.o. post was created by North York Council primarily to provide information on the activities of the townshipâ€"both adminstrative depattments and the council itselfâ€"to ratepayers and to the press. Within a week of assuming the position, Bert Long realized that there was not sufficient oneâ€"way traffic in the information line along the payer to keep the rails from rusting. too far aw; house is u: stripping d a stock car a pile of e and harder been left ir more than Each of t owners inv cidents has himâ€"a visi forcement ship.

In this instance, if past exâ€" NFW The report on "hens running around in a residential area" was filed by a Habitant drive resiâ€" dent who felt that such activiâ€" ties "should not be allowed." The complaining citizen is quite right; the keeping of live poultry in a residential area is a violation of a North York bylaw. The keeper of the chicks will be advised of the bylaw when the enforcement officer comes to call. Among the 13 complaints two were from‘chronic hayfever sufâ€" ferers. The complaints, logically enough, were about weedâ€"filled areas near their homes. One such beef was channeled to the parks department since the lot involved was township property. The other was directed to the bylaw enâ€" forcement officer who was asked to call on the owner of the lot complained about. Which is pretty must the workâ€" ing rule for newspapermen; they don‘t make news, they just try to make it understandable to the reader. . In one week this month, the North York public information officer received exactly thirteen complaints. Long said that the number _ had no significance; there was nothing particularly ominous about the number "13" in his opinion. Some weeks there are thirty complaints; on others there are less than ten.. Winter is the time for complaints in volume with spring a close secâ€" ond. ‘ "I don‘t make policy," Long said.

But the public information ofâ€" ficer never knows in advance The complaint was rélayed by Long to the bylaw enforcement officer. "Within a week I will be ad« vised by the enforcement officer of the outcome of the complaint," Long said. "I could hazard a guess on what the result on this one would beâ€"but I won‘t. My job is information, not guessing." Among the current complaints being processed is one from a Betty Anne drive resident who finds the noise of the air conâ€" ditioning unit used by her next door neighbor annoying. "Ultimately they all work out satisfactorily," he said. "Usually there is a compromise, unless an open and shut violation of townâ€" ship law is involved." To Bert Long only the outcome of the action by the municipal department involved in settling the complaint is important.
