Summary

I have heard from a business owner on Wade Avenue regarding vehicles routinely parking in front of the business's paid boulevard parking area. These incidents occur too frequently, creating operational challenges and delays for employees, deliveries, and guests. To assess these concerns, Transportation Services conducted a site visit in April 2026.

 

While the City of Toronto's statutory parking regulations already prohibit parking directly in front of a legal boulevard without signage, Transportation Services determined that additional measures are warranted, given ongoing enforcement challenges. As a result, staff recommend implementing a nso-standing regulation on the west side of Wade Avenue, south of Paton Road, adjacent to the entrance and exit of the business's boulevard parking area.

 

The proposed parking amendments will discourage vehicles from stopping within the boulevard area and maintain unobstructed access to the parking facility.
