Item - 2025.TE19.40

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Amended Schedule B of the City of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 925, Permit Parking, authorizing the amendment of permit Parking Area 7C, generally as shown in Attachment 1 to the letter (January 8, 2025)  from Councillor Chris Moise.
 

2. Amended Schedule A of City of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 925, Permit Parking, to authorize parking by permit only to be in effect from 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. daily, on the odd (south) of Shuter Street from Parliament Street to Sumach Street.

I am writing to request support to expand permit parking to add spaces on Shuter Street between Parliament Street and Sumach Street. This is a follow-up to a motion in December to skip petition and polling requirements.

There are existing unsigned parking spaces on the south side of Sumach Street between Parliament and River Street, but only the portion between Sumach Street and River Street permit overnight permit parking. A local resident brought this discrepancy to the attention of my office, and upon review with City staff, Transportation Services were agreeable to review adding these existing parking spaces into the 7C permit area for overnight parking purposes.

Adding these spaces would provide a consistent parking condition across Shuter Street, as well as provide approximately 20 new overnight permit parking spaces to a permit parking area that is frequently waitlisted.
