As filed

City Council on June 14 and 15, 2023, adopted the following: 1. City Council authorize the Executive Director, Municipal Licensing and Standards or the General Manager, Transportation Services to exempt curb lane café permit area on the flankage of 1122 Queen Street West, Hello 123, from the requirements of Section 742-10.2A(2) of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 742, Sidewalk Cafés, Parklets and Marketing Displays.

On the agenda

As the city filed it

Hello 123, located at 1122 Queen St W, had submitted an application for a curb lane café on the flankage street Lisgar Street. Following a feasibility assessment by CaféTO staff it was determined that the café on Lisgar Street would not be compliant with City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 742, Sidewalk Cafés, Parklets and Marketing Displays. The curb lane café would be located on a local road with permit parking and would have an impact on existing alternate side parking.

My office has worked with the CaféTO team and a solution has been developed that would ensure that the alternate side parking adjacent to the curb lane café would remaining unaffected. However, the requirement related to a curb lane café not being on a local road with permit parking would need to be waived. This motion would provide the pathway to exempt Hello 123 from the permit parking requirement of Municipal Code Chapter 742, Sidewalk Cafes, Parklets and Marketing Displays, and allow them to install a flankage curb lane café on Lisgar Street. This motion is urgent because the business requires City Council approval before the patio can be installed. Approving this motion at this meeting would reduce the delays and speed up the installation.
