On the agenda

As the city filed it

I wish to ask the City Manager, in consultation with the City Solicitor, to review for compliance with applicable laws and policies the Toronto Parking Authority's bid process related to its Parking Access and Revenue Control System procurement (RFP-PARCS-202407), in light of a bid process complaint recently submitted by a bidder in respect of this procurement. The Request for Proposal concerns the replacement of the Toronto Parking Authority's aging parking access and revenue control system, which is over 25 years old and technologically obsolete.

The new system aims to streamline workflows, reduce manual ticket processing, and improve service reliability through automation and remote monitoring. This motion is urgent due to there being no Council meeting scheduled until late September after the current meeting, and the Toronto Parking Authority Parking Access and Revenue Control System procurement currently being underway.
