Summary

Dear Chair and Members of the Toronto and East York Community Council,

 

Toronto Hydro has requested that an area on Commissioners Street, currently an unsigned 3-hour spot be converted to a no standing area. The unsigned spot sits between a no-parking area and the driveway entrance to the Toronto Hydro facility, creating a hazard for drivers by decreasing visibility and increasing the risk of accidents.
