On the agenda
As the city filed it
My office was approached by the Dr. Eric Jackman Institute of Child Study Lab School to look at the potential of establishing a new pick-up and drop-off zone in front of the school, and to provide the option for 10 minute parking spaces during school hours. The amended times as proposed by staff below, and agreed to by the school will ensure the safety of the children attending the school and allow for more efficient access to the school by parents and caregivers.

This approach is supported by the Toronto Police Services who advised the school to seek these permissions to help alleviate congestion and illegal parking at the start of the school day. Under the current conditions, following 8:45 am, parents who are dropping off a young child into the school have no means to park legally in the vicinity of the school. This is the same for parents who have been called to pick up a sick child. I am always happy to support initiatives that will make our neighbourhoods safer places for our children to get to and from their school and am happy to support the recommendations below.
