Subject: Reduction of Permit Parking Hours on Hillsdale Avenue West, between Lascelles Boulevard and Colin Avenue
(North Toronto)
Purpose:
To report on the reduction of permit parking hours on Hillsdale Avenue West, between Lascelles Boulevard and Colin
Avenue, from 12:01 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday to Friday, and 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Saturday and Sunday, to 12:01
a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Monday to Friday.
Financial Implications and Impact Statement:
Not applicable.
Recommendations:
It is recommended that:
(1) the permit parking hours of operation on Hillsdale Avenue West, between Lascelles Boulevard and Colin Avenue, be
reduced from 12:01 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday to Friday, and 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Saturday and Sunday, to 12:01 a.m.
to 10:00 a.m., Monday to Friday;
(2) newly created Schedule AC, of Municipal Code Chapter 400, Traffic and Parking, of the former City of Toronto
Municipal Code, be introduced to incorporate Hillsdale Avenue West, between Lascelles Boulevard and Colin Avenue;
(3) parking be permitted for a maximum period of one hour 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the south side of
Hillsdale Avenue West, from Lascelles Avenue to Colin Avenue;
(4) Schedule AAA, of Municipal Code Chapter 400, Traffic and Parking, of the former City of Toronto Municipal Code,
be deleted, as the permit parking system cannot identify three (3) digit designations, and further, this schedule is no-longer
required; and
(5) the appropriate City Officials be authorized and directed to take the necessary action to give effect thereto, including the
introduction of all necessary bills.
Background:
A request was received from Councillor Anne Johnstone to have the permit parking hours reduced on Hillsdale Avenue
West, between Lascelles Boulevard and Colin Avenue, from the current hours of 12:01 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday to
Friday, and 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Saturday and Sunday, to the proposed hours of 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Monday to
Friday.
Comments:
Hillsdale Avenue West, between Lascelles Boulevard and Colin Avenue, is authorized for permit parking on a street name
basis, and the hours of operation are 12:01 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday to Friday, and 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Saturday and
Sunday.
The reduction of permit parking hours on Hillsdale Avenue West, between Lascelles Boulevard and Colin Avenue, 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 mail. A notice on the deprivation of permit parking was sent to all affected permit
holders on September 10, 1999, with September 27, 1999 as the last date to respond, and no objections were received.
Conclusions:
Given that there were no objections received, it is recommended that the permit parking hours on Hillsdale Avenue West,
between Lascelles Boulevard and Colin Avenue, be amended to indicate 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Monday to Friday.
