5. City Council authorize a parking machine regulation to be in effect from 9:30 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Saturday; and from 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Sunday, for a maximum period of three hours at the rate of $3.00 per hour, on the west side of Avenue Road, between a point 25 metres north of Brooke Avenue and a point 22 metres further north.

As the Toronto Transit Commission operates a transit service on Avenue Road, City Council approval of this report is required.

Transportation Services is requesting approval to amend the existing parking machine regulations and introduce a short-term parking area on the west side of Avenue Road, north of Brooke Avenue. The proposed parking amendments will reduce the operating hours of existing Pay-and-Display parking regulations and provide three short-term parking spaces during the weekday morning and evening periods.

These changes will enable pick-up/drop-off activity for a daycare centre at 1920 Avenue Road. The spaces are not dedicated to the daycare and are available for anyone with short-term parking needs.
