Summary

A local produce business on Alma Ave west of Dufferin has contacted my office for assistance with parking amendments to allow better access for delivery trucks entering this narrow street. 

 

The business owner has noted that prior to September 2019, a no-parking sign existed on the north corner of Alma and may have been removed during construction. Following an investigation by Transportation Services, staff determined that the street was not designated as a no-parking zone despite no-parking signage being previously installed at this location.

 

To formalize this previously existing prohibition and allow access for delivery vehicles, I respectfully request your support on the following recommendations.
