On the agenda
As the city filed it
I am writing to you today to request your support in amending the pay parking by-law on Palmerston Avenue, north of Bloor Street West to correct an accidental conflict between pay parking and permit parking hours of operation. Transportation Services, in consultation with my office, Cycling and Toronto Police Parking Enforcement staff, is recommending that the existing pay parking operating times on the west side of Palmerston Avenue, from Bloor Street West to a point 65 metres north, be amended.

Permit Parking is currently permitted on the west side of Palmerston Avenue, between Bloor Street West and London Street from 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., daily. However, as per the Traffic Municipal Code, and recently installed signs, pay parking operates from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Mon. to Sat.; 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Sun. As a result, the exclusive permit parking end time overlaps with the pay parking start time, so that those who attempt to follow the sign and who pay for parking between 8 AM and 10 AM receive parking tickets for doing so. The proposed amendment will resolve this discrepancy.
