On the agenda

As the city filed it

Dear Chair and Members, I am writing to you to request Community Council's support for a motion that is important to the constituents of the Toronto-St. Paul's ward, but one that could not be brought forward by staff due to the immediacy of the issue. Residents of Ellsworth Avenue have come to my office with concerns over the current parking arrangement on the block between Vaughan Road and Wychwood Avenue. The current arrangement has failed at ensuring adequate space for local residents of the street and has caused safety concerns over illegal parking on both sides of the street potentially limiting access to emergency services vehicles, amongst other concerns.

This is often exacerbated in the spring and summer when there are more visitors to popular food establishments along St. Clair Avenue West and Vaughan Road, many of whom end up parking on Ellsworth. My office has received a petition of the majority of residents of the block, requesting that the current by-laws be rescinded and the underneath recommendations implemented. Traffic Operations staff have also been consulted on this and have advised that they do not have any concerns over the proposed recommendations.
