Subject:Parking Prohibitions: Rothmere Drive

North York Centre South

Purpose:

To remove the 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, Monday to Friday, parking restrictions on the south side of Rothmere Drive, between Mildenhall Road and Proctor Crescent.

Source of funds:

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

Recommendations:

That Schedule VIII of By-law #31001, of the former City of North York, be amended to rescind the "No Parking, 8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday", restrictions on the south side of Rothmere Drive, between the easterly limit of Proctor Crescent and the westerly limit of Mildenhall Road.

Council Reference/Background/History:

Currently, parking is prohibited on the south side of Rothmere Drive, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday. Stopping is also prohibited on both sides of Rothmere Drive, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, from Proctor Crescent to Mildenhall Road.

Discussion:

Councillor Joanne Flint, on behalf of the local residents and the Mildenhall Ratepayers Association, have requested that staff of the Transportation Division of the Works and Emergency Services Department remove the current parking restrictions on the north side of Rothmere Drive. The existing stopping restrictions are to be maintained.

Conclusions:

This Division would support the residents request to amend the current parking regulations.
