This staff report is about a matter that 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 approval to implement a designated on-street accessible loading zone, in front of the main entrance to Annette Street Public School, located on the north side of Jennings Avenue.  The establishment of an accessible loading zone will provide unimpeded curbside access for pick-up and drop-off of students with accessible permits.  This proposal will not result in the loss of any permit parking spaces.
