Origin
Summary
In January 2024, the students of Regina Mundi Catholic School relocated into a new campus located at 60 Playfair Avenue, the former site of Dante Alighieri High School. The new school site has considerably less frontage for the parents and school buses to use during pick up and drop off. The lack of adequate parking space is causing a backup of cars and school buses, as there is no restriction on the time cars can park in front of the school. The principal and parents have contacted my office requesting changes to the parking on the north side of Playfair Avenue to help facilitate drop of and pick up of the students.
