Community Council Decision

Origin
Summary
The availability of permit parking in our neighbourhoods continues to be a hot topic of discussion among residents, new, old, and former.
The increasing density we are seeing from development does not suggest that our current model for on-street parking availability is one that is equitable, nor that it can support any new residents to the area moving forward. By taking steps to eliminate access to parking spaces we can help promote less dependency on a personal vehicle, and protect the available public supply for general use.
The exclusion of the development located at 110-116 Avenue Road from the 5E permit parking area is also a means to ensure that current permit holders have sufficient parking spaces and we are not oversubscribing any one area from access to public parking availability.
The issuance of parking permits to residents of this development would negatively impact on the already limited supply of on-street parking spaces in the area.
