To: Chairman and Members of the North York Community Council
From: Jim S. Kinrade
Commissioner of Transportation
North York Civic Centre
Subject: Parking Prohibitions: Duncanwoods Drive
Purpose: To prohibit parking on the west side of Duncanwoods Drive, from Benrubin Drive to Pearldale 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 on the west side of Duncanwoods Drive, from the southerly limit of Benrubin Drive to the northerly limit of Pearldale Drive.
Council Reference/Background/History:
Currently, parking is prohibited on various sections of Duncanwoods Road , from Islington Avenue to Finch Avenue West.
Discussions:
At the request of our Maintenance Section, this office has reviewed the current parking restrictions on Duncanwoods Drive.
As a result of our investigation, it has been determined that, although no by-law exists to prohibit parking at any time on the west side of Duncanwoods Drive, between Benrubin and Pearldale Drives, parking control signs are currently posted.
As the parking prohibitions are posted and we have not received any request from either the residents or local Councillor to remove the parking control signs, it is recommended to enact the appropriate by-law.
Conclusions:
In view of the above, this department would recommend that the appropriate By-law be enacted to prohibit parking on Duncanwoods Drive, between Benrubin Drive and Pearldale Drives.
