As the city filed it

Over the last several months, our office has received a series of correspondence from constituents and Toronto Police Service Parking Enforcement about ongoing parking concerns along several streets south of Dundas Street East in Regent Park. Most pressing, are complaints from Toronto Fire Services about fire trucks being unable to access the roads as vehicles are parked on both sides. For the last number of years, as part of the ongoing development several streets in Regent Park have been under the jurisdiction of the developer.

A number of these streets have now been dedicated to the City of Toronto allowing for a review of traffic and parking regulations. Transportation Services have reviewed the following streets: Nicholas Avenue, Wyatt Avenue, Tubman Avenue, Dreamers Way, and Oak Street. Traffic and parking regulations have been determined that support improved access for emergency personnel vehicles (see Attachment 1). These regulations are an interim solution. Once the roads are fully assumed by the City, there will be a larger community conversation to determine the long-term responses to parking and traffic regulation in the neighbourhood.

Staff recommended

It is recommended that: 1. The Toronto and East York Community Council authorize the traffic and parking regulations on Nicholas Avenue, Wyatt Avenue, Tubman Avenue, Dreamers Way and Oak Street, as described in "Attachment 1: Traffic and Parking Regulations-Nicholas Avenue, Wyatt Avenue, Tubman Avenue, Dreamers Way and Oak Street".
