Parking Prohibitions - Burdock Lane -
Don Parkway
The North York Community Council recommends the adoption of the following report (September 3, 1998) from
the Director, Transportation Services, District 3:
Purpose:
To remove the existing 60 minutes permitted parking restriction on the north and east side of Burdock Lane.
Source of funds:
All funds associated with the removal of the parking control signs are included within the 1998 operating budget.
Recommendation:
That Schedule X of By-Law No. 31001, of the former City of North York, be amended, to permit parking for up to a
maximum of three hours on the north and east side of Burdock, from The Donway West to the easterly limit of Burdock
Lane
Council Reference/Background/History:
Currently, parking is prohibited at anytime on the south and west side of Burdock Lane. On the north and east side of the
Burdock Lane, vehicles are permitted to park for up to a maximum of 60 minutes.
Discussions:
Councillor Gordon Chong, on behalf of the residents of Burdock Lane, has requested that staff of the Transportation
Division of the Works and Emergency Services Department remove the existing 60 minutes permitted parking restriction
on the north and east side of Burdock Lane. A recent survey, conducted by Councillor Chong's office, indicated that the
majority of the affected residents on Burdock Lane feel the existing parking prohibitions/restrictions are too onerous and
are therefore in favour of removing the 60 permitted parking restriction.
Conclusions:
In view of the support of the affected residents, this department would have no objections to the removal of the parking
restrictions.
