To: Urban Environment and Development Committee
From: City Clerk
Subject: Request for Uniform Permit Parking By-law and Area-Wide Permit Parking Policy
Recommendations:
The York Community Council on February 18, 1998, recommended to the Urban Environment and Development Committee that:
(1) the Interim Functional Lead for Transportation be requested to submit to the Committee:
(a) a draft uniform permit parking by-law; and
(b) at the earliest opportunity, an outline of a policy for the introduction of area-wide permit parking, to be considered in a City-wide context, including a graduated fee structure for single addresses requiring multiple vehicle permits; and
(2) the aforementioned draft uniform permit parking by-law and policy be referred to the Community Councils for consideration and public consultation, and subsequent comment thereon back to the Urban Environment and Development Committee.
Background:
The York Community Council had before it several reports recommending the implementation of overnight permit parking on a number of streets in York, subject to a poll of the area residents to determine majority interest. These reports were prepared in response to concerns expressed by residents without adequate off-street parking facilities.
