9. Amended the existing parking prohibition on the west side of Rusholme Park Crescent, between College Street and the south end of Rusholme Park Crescent, in effect anytime, except each Thursday, from April 1 to November 30, inclusive, to be in effect between a point 35 metres south of College Street and the south end of Rusholme Park Crescent.

In July 2018, traffic control signals were approved for the intersections of College Street, at Gladstone Avenue and College Street, at Havelock Street and Rusholme Park Crescent.  When these traffic control signals were approved, parking was also removed to a point of 30.5 metres on the approaches of these intersections. 

Area residents have since voiced concerns over the loss of parking.  The purpose of this motion therefore is to reduce the previously approved parking reductions 30.5 metres to 15 metres on most approaches in order to maximize on-street parking.
