As the city filed it

Subsection 925-4B of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 925, Permit Parking, provides that: Where permit parking is not currently available and where a petition requesting permit parking signed by the residents of a minimum of 25% of the total number of residential premises having a residential address on the street or the flank of the street is submitted to the General Manager, a poll shall be conducted in accordance with Chapter 190, Polling and Notification, to determine if the residents wish to have permit parking on their road or area, as the case may be.

In the event of a positive polling result, the General Manager shall report such result to the appropriate community council, which community council under delegated authority, shall be authorized to pass any necessary by-laws to implement permit parking on the road or area. In the event of a negative result, permit parking shall not be extended to the road or area, and no further permit parking poll shall be conducted for a period of two years Pape Avenue, between Kings Park Boulevard and Gertrude Place is a residential street within the 8A permit parking area which is currently under the city 3-hour parking limit bylaw. Earlier this year, paid parking was approved on Pape Avenue between Kings Park Blvd and Gertrude Place. I have heard from many residents on this section of Pape Avenue frustrated that the implementation of paid parking eliminates their option to park overnight in front of their houses. By licensing the street to permit parking, residents will have a legal means to park overnight and avoid parking tickets.
