11 March 1998

 

To: Chairman and Members of the Community Council

 

From: Jim S. Kinrade

Commissioner of Transportation

North York Civic Centre

 

Subject: Parking Prohibitions: Hickorynut Drive

 

Purpose: To install parking prohibitions on the north and west sides of Hickorynut Drive.

 

 

Source of funds:

 

All costs associated with the installation of the parking restrictions are included within the 1998 operating budget.

 

Recommendations:

 

To amend Schedule VIII of By-Law #31001, of the former City of North York, to prohibit parking from 8:00 a.m.. to 5:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the north and west sides of Hickorynut Drive, from the westerly limit of Hickorynut Drive to the southerly limit of Hazelnut Crescent.

 

Council Reference/Background/History:

 

The residents of Hickorynut Drive have requested the installation of parking prohibitions on the north and west sides of Hickorynut Drive. The residents have advised that motorists, associated with the commercial properties on Sheppard Avenue East park their vehicles daily.

 

Currently, parking is prohibited from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the south and east sides of Hickorynut Drive, from the westerly limit of Hickorynut Drive to the southerly limit of Hazelnut Crescent.

 

Discussions:

 

As a result of our investigation, staff of this department have confirmed the residents= concern as several vehicles were parked on the north and west sides of Hickorynut Drive. A review of our location file has revealed that there have been several previous requests for enforcement of the parking restrictions. Based upon the continued complaints, it would appear that enforcement alone has been ineffective in reducing the level of on street parking.

 

Conclusions:

 

This department supports amending the parking restrictions.
