On the agenda

As the city filed it

In April 2022, Council approved bylaw 294-2023: Item - 2022.IE28.7 to adjust traffic and parking regulations to accommodate the Douro Street and Wellington Street Road Safety and Bikeway Improvements project as part of the Council approved Cycling Network Plan. The loading zone in question was adjusted as part of a Cycling Network Plan project on Wellington Street which required the relocation of the loading zone used predominantly by 1Hotel, previously located on Wellington Street West just East of Bathurst Street, to Bathurst Street between Wellington Street West and Stewart Street.

The existing loading zone bylaw and subsequent signage does not adequately account for deliveries and patron arrivals which in many cases require the driver to enter the business in order to have deliveries received, sign invoices, alert valet parking etc., which has resulted in both patrons and service providers of the business receiving multiple parking infractions. This motion proposes to change the bylaw and signage, to reflect the nature of the need on the street by providing a 15 minute grace period for loading needs.
