Origin

(October 22, 2021) Report from Director, Permits and Enforcement, Transportation Services

Summary

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

 

Transportation Services is reporting on the results of the permit parking poll undertaken on Pine Crescent, Glen Ames, Long Crescent, Glen Oak Drive, Balsam Road, Pine Glen Road and Glen Stewart Crescent. As directed by City Council via Item TE8.77, the City Clerk mailed polling ballots to the affected residents to determine their level of support for the removal of the overnight permit parking program from their street.

 

The polling results indicate that, for the above noted streets, the majority of residents on each street voted for the removal of the overnight on-street permit parking program. The removal of 320 on-street permit parking spaces would allow vehicles to park for a maximum period of 3-hours, at all times of the day. As there are 27 active permit holders on the streets noted above, Transportation Services does not support removing the program as 27 residents would no longer be able to park overnight on their respective street.
