Summary

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

 

Transportation Services is recommending affixing parking to the south side of Melville Avenue, between Shaw Street and Christie Street, in place of the existing alternate side parking arrangement. 

 

Transportation Services submitted a report to the Toronto and East York Community Council on September 16, 2020, in response to former Councillor's request that the City discontinue the alternate-side parking arrangement on Melville Avenue, between Shaw Street and Christie Street.  However, Toronto and East York Community Council deferred consideration of this item pending further consultation with residents.  The Ward Councillor has further consulted residents and collected a petition that confirms the desire from residents to discontinue the alternate-side parking arrangement on this section of Melville Avenue.
