Item - 2025.TE23.63

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1.  Rescinded the existing parking prohibition in effect at all times on the north side of Browning Avenue, between Pape Avenue and a point 141.3 metres west of Pape Avenue.

2.  Rescinded the existing permit parking regulation in effect from 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. daily on both sides of Browning Avenue, from Logan Avenue and a point 54.1 metres east of Carlaw Avenue.

3.  Rescinded the existing permit parking regulation in effect from 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. daily on the odd (south) side of Browning Avenue, from Pape Avenue to the south former Borough of East York limit.

4.  Authorized permit parking to be in effect from 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. daily on the even (north) side of Browning Avenue, from Logan Avenue to Pape Avenue.

5.  Authorized permit parking to be in effect from 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. daily, except no parking 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday to Friday from a point 30 metres west of Pape Avenue and a point 9 metres further west, on the odd (south) side of Browning Avenue, from Logan Avenue to Pape Avenue.

Residents of Browning Ave between Pape Ave and Carlaw Ave have requested an amendment to the existing parking restriction on the north side of their street due to limited parking availability.

There is a small stretch of Browning that falls under a legacy East York bylaw enacted in 1979 for which there is no recorded rationale. The residents in this section, covered by the East York bylaw, currently have access to permit parking in the areas of Browning not covered by this bylaw.

I have received a petition from the majority of residents living on Browning between Pape and Carlaw supporting such a change. City staff have indicated their support.

I would like to amend this parking restriction and allow residents to have access to additional on-street parking.
