This year's report has been renamed and reformatted to reflect the adoption of the City's APS program which was fully implemented in 2018. Issuance and collection activity for parking infraction notices issued under the Provincial Offences Act was previously reported through the annual Parking Ticket Activity Report. The 2017 Parking Ticket Activity Report also provided an analysis of APS operations from August 28, 2017 to December 31, 2017. This report is being submitted to the General Government and Licensing Committee together with a report from the Toronto Police Service, Annual Report: 2018 Parking Enforcement Unit - Estimated Tag Issuance Report, which identifies enforcement-related activity for 2018. In 2013, the Government Management Committee, during consideration of Item GM21.6, requested that these reports be submitted at the same time.

Staff recommended
