Origin
Summary
In consultation with residents in the McGill-Granby Neighbourhood, on-street parking amendments are being proposed to ensure pedestrian safety by increasing visibility on the south side of Granby Street. These changes will allow pedestrians and drivers more visibility, especially around a laneway on the west side of Granby Street.
Additionally, in consultation with Toronto Parking Authority and their city-wide rate structure review, I am conducting a Ward-wide review of all parking rates in Toronto Centre. As this motion is coming to this meeting, the following rates are proposed to ensure compliance with rate changes coming in the near future.
