Subject: Removing the Parking Restriction at 110 Lakeside Avenue, Ward 13
Purpose:
To remove a previously installed parking prohibition in front of 110 Lakeside Avenue.
Funding Sources:
The funds associated with the removal of the parking prohibition signs are available in the Road & Traffic Services 1998 Budget Account No. 20000-70200-72260.
Recommendations:
It is recommended that:
(1) the current No Parking regulations identified in Appendix 1 of this report be rescinded; and
(2) the appropriated by-law be amended accordingly.
Background:
The existing No Parking Anytime restriction was installed at 110 Lakeside Avenue in 1995 to facilitate a bus picking up a handicapped child at this property. A representative of the Scarborough Baptist Church, located on the southwest corner of Kingston Road and Lakeside Avenue, had requested that the parking prohibition in front of 110 Lakeside Avenue be removed.
Discussion:
The residents of 110 Lakeside Avenue, who originally requested that the handicapped parking space be installed in front of this property, have since moved. Therefore, the need for this parking prohibition no longer exists.
Conclusions:
Based on this new information, and considering the sole purpose of erecting this no parking restriction was to facilitate handicapped bus access, we are now recommending that the parking prohibition by-law be rescinded.
