Parking Amendments - Ameer Avenue
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Ameer Avenue, City Council approval of this report is required. Transportation Services is recommending that parking be allowed for a maximum of 10 minutes from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the west side of Ameer Avenue, between a point 106.7 metres north of Baycrest Drive and Neptune Drive. A TTC bus stop in this area was recently removed so it is now feasible to allow parking. The existing parking prohibition in effect in this area from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday will be rescinded. The proposed changes will provide short-term parking in front of St. Margaret Catholic Elementary School for parents/guardians to accompany students to/from the school. During the course of the investigation, it was noted that there is a discrepancy between posted signs and the existing parking regulations. Recommendation 3 will correct this inconsistency.
North York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council authorize parking for a maximum of 10 minutes from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the west side of Ameer Avenue, between a point 106.7 metres north of Baycrest Drive and Neptune Drive. 2.

Pay and Display Parking - Various Locations (Delegated)
This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision. Transportation Services is requesting approval for the installation of on-street paid parking on local streets to the east and west of Yonge Street in Ward 18. This request resulted from a review following the December 16, 2020 City Council endorsement of the recommended design for the reconstruction of Yonge Street between Florence Avenue / Avondale Avenue to the Finch Hydro Corridor. The preferred design will result in a reduction from six to four traffic lanes between Sheppard Avenue and Finch Avenue and thus result in the loss of several on-street paid parking spaces along Yonge Street. Transportation Services and Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) staff reviewed streets intersecting Yonge Street to convert locations with daytime time limit parking, overnight permit parking and no parking to on-street paid parking. The installation of on-street paid parking on streets contained within close proximity to the Reimagining Yonge Street project area is an ongoing initiative. Transportation Services and TPA staff will continue to review and potentially report on new on-street paid parking.
North York Community Council: 1. Enacted the parking by-law amendments to establish new on-street paid parking locations, as set out in Attachments 2 and 3, to the report (June 10, 2022) from the Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services.
