the influx of students and staff at the University taking up spaces throughout the neighbourhoods.

Should Council wish to proceed with adding new metered spaces, to accommodate businesses, a number of options can be looked at, listed below in their option format. These meters should be set for a 2 hour time limit which historically has shown us the best rate of turnover for use. This time frame has deterred students from using street meters, as the time for parking their vehicle, walking to and from class, and the actual class time usually takes longer than the 2 hour mark suggested for these meters, and parking penalties are issued for expired meters. The proposed new meter locations would only affect one side of the street, each street has an existing by-law restricting parking to one side only.

The map attached in Appendix A highlights the proposed locations of new meters that could be utilized for access to businesses. The discussion below identifies the parking status of each of the streets. Administration has indicated how many parking permits were issued during the 2019/2020 school year, this does not represent the maximum allowable number of permits available.
