Origin
Summary
This staff report is about a matter for which Community Council has delegated authority to make a final decision, provided that it is not amended so that it varies with City policy or by-laws.
Transportation Services is requesting North York Community Council to amend the parking prohibition in effect at all times on the north side of Risa Boulevard, between Dufferin Street and a point 61 metres east of Dufferin Street, to a standing prohibition in effect at all times from Dufferin Street to Topview Court.
The proposed standing prohibition will discourage drivers from waiting on-street while their passenger is in the McDonald's restaurant on the north side of the street. This activity obstructs two-way traffic and causes traffic congestion on Risa Boulevard that can extend to Dufferin Street.
