Committee Recommendations

The Infrastructure and Environment Committee submits the item to City Council without recommendation.

Origin

(June 26, 2019) Report from the General Manager, Transportation and the Chief Purchasing Officer

Summary

On May 30, 2017, the Province of Ontario passed the Safer School Zones Act, 2017 to facilitate the municipal adoption of Automated Speed Enforcement technology on roads with speed limits under 80 km/h in school and community safety zones.  However, this legislation has not yet been proclaimed as in force, and the associated regulations proposed to be enacted are not yet drafted.  The City cannot implement an automated speed enforcement program until the Province proclaims that this legislation is in force.

 

In January 2018, City Council authorized the General Manager, Transportation Services, to proceed with the development of Automated Speed Enforcement in conjunction with the Province and other partnering municipalities.  Since then, City staff have been working with the Ministry of Transportation, the Ministry of the Attorney General, and other partnering municipalities to jointly develop this program. 

 

The purpose of this report is to:

- provide an update on the results of the Automated Speed Enforcement Study.
- provide an overview of the Automated Speed Enforcement program.
- advise on the financial impact of the program.
- advise on the impact of the program on the provincial offences court system.
- advise on the status of the Request for Proposal 9148-19-0048 for the provision of Automated Speed Enforcement Services in the City of Toronto.
- request authority to hire additional staff necessary to operate the automated speed enforcement program.
- request authority to enter into an agreement with the partnering municipalities for the joint processing centre.
- request authority to enter into agreement(s) with Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Ontario, as represented by the Minister of Transportation, for the access and use of licence plate registration information.
- request authority to conduct an educational campaign, including the use of warning letters.
