Origin
Summary
This report is about a matter for which Toronto and East York Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.
Transportation Services is requesting approval to rescind the alternate side parking regulations on Rushbrooke Avenue and maintain parking year-round on the west side of the street, and on small sections of the east side during the non-winter months. This is in order to facilitate the creation of "parking islands" at intervals along the east side of the street for parking permit holders only. The "parking islands" may slow traffic since they will narrow the travelled portion of the roadway.
