Summary

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

 

Transportation Services is requesting approval for the installation of a designated on-street accessible loading zone on the west side of Birchview Crescent, south of Oakview Avenue. The accessible loading zone will operate from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., daily.
