That the attached draft by-law be enacted to amend Schedule "1", to By-law 6604/05 to provide for the regulation of stopping on highways or parts of highways under the jurisdiction of the Corporation of the City of Pickering, specifically to propose the installation of stopping restrictions on both sides of Eyer Drive at the newly constructed Father Fenelon Catholic School, and to remove the stopping restrictions on both sides of Liverpool Road at the existing location of Father Fenelon Catholic School that will be closing in December 2015; 2. That the attached draft by-law be enacted to amend Schedule "2" to By-law 6604/05 to provide for the regulation of parking on highways or parts of highways under the jurisdiction of the Corporation of the City of Pickering, specifically to propose parking restrictions on the west side of Liverpool Road at the closing of Father Fenelon Catholic School; 3. That the attached draft by-law be enacted to amend Schedule "3" to By-law 6604/05 to provide for the regulation of bus loading zones on highways or parts of highways under the jurisdiction of the Corporation of the City of Pickering, specifically to propose the removal of the on-street school bus loading zone on the east side of Liverpool Road at the closing Father Fenelon Catholic School; and 4. That the existing crossing guard location on Liverpool Road at Ilona Park Road be removed, and if required, staff to add a school crossing guard location on Eyer Drive at the newly constructed school. Executive Summary: Stopping restrictions on Eyer Drive were removed when Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School was closed at the end of the 2012-2013 school year. Students from Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School were moved to Father Fenelon Catholic School located on Liverpool Road for the start of the 2013-2014 school year. Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School has since been demolished and a new Father Fenelon Catholic School has been constructed in its place. On December 7, 2015 the Father Fenelon Catholic School located on Liverpool Road will be closed and students will be moved to the new Father Fenelon Catholic School on Eyer Drive. ENG 19-15 November 9, 2015 Subject: Proposed Traffic By-law Amendments Father Fenelon Catholic School Page 2 Engineering & Public Works staff recommend that the previous stopping restrictions (on both sides of Eyer Drive) that were in place before Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School was closed, be reinstated; that the existing on-street school bus area and stopping restrictions on Liverpool Road in front of the school to be closed be removed; and that parking restrictions be installed on the west side of Liverpool Road to be consistent with parking restrictions on the entire limit of the road. Engineering & Public Works staff recommend that the existing crossing guard location on Liverpool Road at Ilona Park Road be removed and if required; staff to install a school crossing guard location on Eyer Drive at the newly constructed school. Financial Implications: The acquisition and installation of no stopping signs and posts on Eyer Drive, and the installation of no parking signs and posts on Liverpool Road can be accommodated within the 2015 Roads Current Budget. Discussion: At the end of the 2012-2013 school year the Durham Catholic School Board closed three catholic schools including Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School located at 795 Eyer Drive. Students from Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School were directed to Father Fenelon Catholic School located at 747 Liverpool Road for the start of the 2013-2014 school year. At that time the City of Pickering removed the stopping restrictions, and corresponding by-law, on Eyer Drive that were in place for Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School as they were no longer necessary. Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School has since been demolished and a new Father Fenelon Catholic School has been constructed in its place. On December 7, 2015 the Father Fenelon Catholic School located on Liverpool Road will be closed and students will be directed to the new Father Fenelon Catholic School on Eyer Drive. Engineering & Public Works staff recommend the following measures be enacted on or before December 7, 2015 when the new school on Eyer Drive becomes active: 1. The previous stopping restrictions on both sides of Eyer Drive, prior to Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School closing, be reinstated, which includes stopping restrictions from 40 metres west of Hillcrest Road to 100 metres west of Hillcrest Road, Monday to Friday, 7:30 am to 4:30 pm (illustrated in Attachment 1). 2. The existing school bus loading zone and stopping restrictions on Liverpool Road in front of the current school be removed. 3. Parking restrictions on Liverpool Road be installed to replace the existing stopping restrictions on the west side of Liverpool Road, to be consistent with parking restrictions on the entire limit of the road (illustrated in Attachment 2). CORP0227-07/01 revised ENG 19-15 November 9, 2015 Subject: Proposed Traffic By-law Amendments Father Fenelon Catholic School Page 3 The draft by-law amendment to Schedule 1, Stopping Restrictions, Schedule 2, Parking Restrictions and Schedule 3, School Bus Loading Zones, of By-law 6604/05 can be found in Attachment 3. Engineering & Public Works staff also recommends the existing crossing guard location on Liverpool Road by Ilona Park Road be removed. Previously there was a crossing guard location on Eyer Drive for the Our Lady of the Bay Catholic School. The school crossing guard was required as a result of the number of parents picking up and dropping off students in the parking lot of Holy Redeemer Church across the street. This was due to the school site not being able to accommodate the level of traffic. The traffic impact study that was prepared for the new Father Fenelon Catholic School did not recommend a crossing guard on Eyer Drive; citing that all school traffic can be accommodated on-site because of the size of the kiss and ride area, which is larger than what was provided at the previous school. Engineering & Public Works staff will monitor the surrounding area for traffic and pedestrian activity following the opening of the school and will install a school crossing guard location if it is required.
