Background:
A request was received from Councillor Betty Disero, on behalf of the residents, to have permit parking on Hallam Street,
between Dufferin Street and Shaw Street, converted from 'Area Based Permit Parking' to 'Street Name Based Permit
Parking'.
Comments:
Hallam Street, between Dufferin Street and Shaw Street, is authorized for permit parking on an area basis, within permit
parking areas 3G and 3L, and the hours of operation are 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m., 7 days a week. Hallam Street, between
Dufferin Street and Shaw Street, has a total of 104 permits issued against 151 on-street parking spaces.
The conversion of permit parking on Hallam Street, between Dufferin Street and Shaw Street, is a "deprivation" to permit
holders. Under the procedures adopted by the former Toronto City Council, we are required to notify all affected permit
holders by posting a notice in the newspaper. A notice on the deprivation of permit parking was placed in the Toronto Star
on May 6, 1998 and no objections were received.
Conclusions:
Given that there were no objections received, it is recommended that the permit parking on Hallam Street, between
Dufferin Street and Shaw Street, be amended to indicate 'Street Name Based Permit Parking', with the operating hours of
12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m., 7 days a weeks.
