3. Authorized parking prohibition to be in effect at all times, on the north side of Montclair Avenue, between Bathurst Street and a point 17.8 metres east of Bathurst Street.

4. Authorized parking prohibition in be in effect from 2:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., daily, on the north side of Montclair Avenue, between a point 17.8 metres east of Bathurst Street and Lonsmount Drive.

I am writing to request your support in amending the existing parking prohibitions on the north side of Montclair Ave in order to resolve an ongoing parking issue at 194 Montclair Ave.  The residents at 194 Montclair Ave reached out to my office on several occasions to complain about their driveway being blocked by vehicles parking in the space between the west boundary of No. 194 and the driveway at No. 196.  This space is less than four metres street and clearly does not meet the City standard of 5.5 metres.

My office has consulted very extensively with Traffic Operations staff, and the most effective way of addressing this ongoing problem is to rescind the existing parking prohibitions, and authorize parking prohibitions on the north side of Montclair Ave, between Bathurst Street and a point 17.8 metres east of Bathurst Street.  There will be no loss of parking spaces.
