To:Chairman and Members of the North York Community Council
From:Roberto Stopnicki
Director, Transportation Services - District 3
Subject:Parking Prohibitions: Glen Park Avenue
North York Spadina
Purpose:To prohibit parking at anytime on the south side of Glen Park Avenue, from
Marlee Avenue to a point 37.0 meters westerly thereof.
Source of funds:
All costs associated with the installation 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
prohibit parking at anytime on the south side of Glen Park Avenue, from Marlee Avenue to
a point 37.0 metres west of Marlee Avenue.
Council Reference/Background/History:
Currently, parking is prohibited at anytime on the north side of Glen Park Avenue, from
Marlee Avenue to Danesbury Avenue. On the south side of the street, parking is permitted
for up to a maximum of three hours.
Comments and/or Discussion and/or Justification:
Staff of the Transportation Division of the Works and Emergency Services Department has
received a request from Mr. Bruno Minicucci, 229 Glen Park Avenue, to prohibit parking at
anytime on the south side of Glen Park Avenue, between Marlee Avenue and the westerly
limit of his property.
Mr. Minicucci has indicated that vehicles parked on the south side of Glen Park Avenue,
adjacent to 229 Glen Park Avenue, are restricting the driveway access and interfering with
waste/recycling collections.
Our investigation has verified Mr. Minicucci's concern, as vehicles parked on either side of
the driveway access to 229 Glen Park Avenue create an obstruction.
Conclusions:
In order to maintain the operation of garbage collection and to increase safety for motorists
accessing/egressing at the driveway access at 229 Glen Park Avenue, this department
supports Mr. Minicucci's request.
