Item - 2022.PA30.10

The Board of Directors of Toronto Parking Authority:

1. Approved amendments to Toronto Parking Authority Policy Resolution 3-6 - Residential Overnight Use as outlined in Attachment 2 to the report (May 11, 2022) from the President, Toronto Parking Authority.

At its meeting of February 18, 2022, Toronto Parking Authority Board of Directors referred Item PA28.5 to the President, Toronto Parking Authority and requested that the President, Toronto Parking Authority consult with local Councillors impacted by the proposed changes to Toronto Parking Authority Policy Resolution 3-6: Residential Overnight Use. 

Toronto Parking Authority has carried out further consultation about the proposed policy changes with each of the local Councillors that have car parks in their wards that are currently included in the Residential Overnight Use program (refer to Attachment 2, Schedule A for a list of the locations). All of the local Councillors consulted have indicated their support for the proposed amendments to Policy 3-6, which are included in Attachment 2, Schedule A.

To ensure that local Councillors are provided an opportunity to identify any community-based concerns with changes to the car parks or the hours in which Residential Permit Holders (“Permit Holders”) may park at these locations, Toronto Parking Authority is committing to consult with the local Councillors before any changes are implemented.

Toronto Parking Authority will further work with Transportation Services to both actively promote the car parks in which Permit Holders may park overnight at no charge and ensure that permit holders are provided advance notification of any changes Toronto Parking Authority is making to the car park locations identified in Policy 3-6 or the hours that Permit Holders may park at no cost.
