? 50-Mile-An-Hour City Expressway To Follow Creek Zooming north -- on brightly colored maps -- members of city council and planning board last night scanned proposals for the Creek Valley traffic route between Bond st. and Taunton ay f An interim report on_ the northern portion of the multi- million dollar limited access route was presented by Nick Damas, a partner in the Toronto traffic consulting firm of Damas and Smith. "T expect we will have a com- plete breakdown, with property drawings and costs, at our next meeting' said Mr. Damas. A detailed report on the south- ern portion of the route was pre- sented to council in January. "Mr, Damas said his firm has strived to minimize interference with land development, prop-! erty and land use in charting the route's course.

Mr. The struggle for space in city hall was resolved, at least tem- porarily, last night by council. The: fifth-floor council: cham- ber was saved. But, sacrificed to staff ex- pansion were city hall meeting rooms (about 12 feet by 22 feet) on the second and third floors; a city-owned Queen st., house; and a small section of the council chamber.

He suggested the city hall addition could be at the rear of building extending toward thi police building. He said this could result in the closing of Athol st., as a through street.

Nor are sound broadcasts, live or taped, per- mitted.
