As the city filed it

I hosted a public meeting in the spring to discuss the permit parking program in TEYCC, with City staff from Permit Parking in attendance. Based on feedback from that meeting as well as numerous emails and phone calls to my office, it is clear that residents on the streets included in Attachment 1 would like a chance to weigh in on the inclusion of their streets in the permit parking program. In 2017, my predecessor moved a motion to 'exempt the implementation of permit parking on the streets … from the requirements of subsection 925-4B of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 925, Permit Parking' and installed permit parking on the streets listed in Attachment 1, without the requirement for a poll indicating community support.

While I do understand the intention of the motion and generally support the permit parking program, I think that it is prudent to provide residents an opportunity to be heard, as per the existing by-law for permit parking implementation.

Staff recommended

City Council authorize and direct the City Clerk to conduct a permit parking poll of the residents on the streets listed in Attachment 1, in accordance with City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 190, Polling and Notification, in relation to maintaining or removing permit parking on their street.
