Summary
This staff report is about a matter for which this Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.
Transportation Services, working with Toronto Hydro, is in the midst of implementing the placement of electric vehicle charging stations associated with the On-Street Electric Vehicle Charging Stations - Pilot Project. In doing so, it was determined that the two Community Council approved locations on the south side of Wellington Street West, east of Clarence Square be shifted the equivalent of one parking space (i.e. 5.5 metres) further to the east to where the charging infrastructure would be better suited to facilitate an easier connection to the underground electrical power source. This report outlines the parking regulation amendments required to implement the requisite shift.
