AND by the team during three exhibition | ¢ ing the 13 game schedule while Town To Chamber of Commerce To Make Survey In Aid Traffic At a special meeting of the Board of Directors and Executive of the Whitby Chamber of Commerce held Friday night in the Town Hall a request was received from the Town Planning Board requesting the Chamber of Commerce to make a survey of business sources in the wn. The Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, D. J. Cuddy, stated that the request was made by the Board in an effort to come to a logical solutioh to the existing parking con- gestion that exists in Whitby dur- ing peak business hours, He added that the request from the Board specified that the Town Planning Board felt that a canvass of merch- ants and other business men in Whitby would go a long way to establishing just what was needed to rectify the local situation. In the request from the Board it was stated that the Town Planning Board wanted to know fairly ac- curately how much of the business done in Whitby came from local citizens, how much from citizens of the outlying communities and how much from transients. The parking problem existing in the town was brought to the atten- tion of the Town Council at a receht meeting and at a subseouent meet- ing a by-law was passed regulating the parking limits on the two main traffic arteries here, Brock and Dundas Streets. Earlier this week Chief Constable J. W. Elliott stated that he had been making a day to day survey of cars parked in the area near the four corners in - Whitby and had found that an average of 70 auto- mobiles were parked on .the two main streets during the day. He added that during the peak rush periods and on Saturdays this num- ber was considerably increased. He added that in his estimation this created a definite traffic hazard. Although the new parking regu- lations have not been enforged to any extent as yet it is understood that the police departments officials are awaiting the .arrival of signs which will inform the public of the new regulations, Chief Elliott stat- ed that it was of no use trying to enforce the rule until the signs had arrived but stated that immediately following the erection of the signs a trial period would be inaugurated during which violators of the rule would be warned. He said that following the trial period the police department would begin a policy of imposing fines on all offenders of the new regulations. The Times-Gazette Classified Ads Bring Quick Results.
