Origin

(September 19, 2024) Report from Councillor Parthi Kandavel

Summary

A young resident of my ward with special needs is currently facing tremendous difficulty in accessing the school bus that picks her up from her home on Arden Crescent due to illegal parking adjacent to her home. As a result of the family’s various failed attempts to resolve this ongoing challenge on their own, I requested that city staff provide a long term sustainable solution that will allow this young student to access the school bus safely and without any extra burden.
