Origin
Summary
This report outlines the parking by-law amendments required to implement one (1) Electric Vehicle (EV) charging location on Lake Shore Boulevard West, for the roll out of two (2) charging stations. This location has been reviewed and supported by the local Councillor.
Additionally, the Toronto Parking Authority has permanently removed the on-street EV charger at 2000 Weston Road to accommodate a new transit shelter; accordingly, the existing parking by-law for this location should be rescinded.
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on the highways mentioned in this report, City Council approval of this report is required.
