That u by-luw be enacted to amend Schedule 'B' of By-law 2359/87 regulating p�rking rostrictions and prohibitions on certain highways. ORIGIN: Staff invcstigation of on•street parking problcros along Shadybrook Drivc AUTHORITY: Afuntclpa! Act, R.S.O. 1990, chaptcr M.45, scction 210.123 FINANCIAL IMPL[CATIONS: Thc manufacturc and instullntion of "no•parking" signs costing approximntely 51000.00 can be nccommodated within the Roads Operating Budget, 2320-2409, Highway Aids. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY; Not npplicable. BACKGROUND: On-street parking has been a mejor problem across the frontage of Shedybrook Park on Shadybrook Drive for a number of years. Serious tra�c movement and pedestrian crossing hezards occur each weekday evening through the summer months in this area as numcrous vehicles are pazked along both sides of Shadybrook Drivc while the drivers visit thc park's soccer field and its other amenilies, The resulting on-street pnrking conditions effectivcly reducc the roadway width to ona lane nnd very seriausly compromise visibility sighUines. As n means to addross these issues an extensive on-street parking review and public opinion campaign wns camed out in 1998 Uvoughout the Shedybrook Drivc ncighbourhood. From thc results of the rcview nnd ctunpaign a no-parking by-luw was drnQed for fuAher considerntion. Although every effort was made to address the concerns of all tcsidents involvcd, un agrccment could not bo renched wilh tha entiro community und ns a result the regulnting bylaw was not approved. The main complaint respccting the proposed bylaw wes the fuct thnt a smull numbcr of residents would losc tha privilege of bcing ablc to park on-strcct fronting their homcs along the north side of Shadybrook Drivc, 1� 4 Report to Council MPE 11-00 Date: May 26, 2000 Subject: Parking Prohibitions By-Law 2359/87 Pagc Z In anticipation of another upcoming busy summor aeason nt Shudybrook Park, Staff ot the Municipal Propetty & Engineering Division huve recognized the need and importance for this by-law. In an attempt to gain complete supporl for the by-law restrictions each of the previously opposed residents hns bcen personally contacted for comment. From these discussions specific chunges have been made to the previous draft of the by-law thereby making it acceptaUle to all residents. The by-Inw, as propc�scd in its new fortn, recommends that parking bc prohibited along the north and west sides of Shadybrook Drive betwecn Strouds Lane and 20 mctres east of Orion Court, between the hours of 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, from May to September inclusive. Restrictions ure also included in the by-law to prohibit parking fo� approximately 20 metres on each side of the Meadowview Avenue, Belinda Court, Orion Caurt and Hedgerow Place intersections with Shadybrook Drive. These limits will protect the sightline visibility requirements for vehicles completing tuming movements to a�id from the sidestreets. The by-law is designed to improve the safety of vehicle movements as wcll as pedestrian crossings across the frontage of Shadybrook Park and through the curved sectiuns along Shudybrook Drive. 'fhe limits as proposed are supported in writing by other neighbourhood residwits and are now considered ucceptable to all but one resident along thc north side of Shadybrook Drive. Unfortunately, however, complcte ngreement with all residents cnnnot be reached on this matter. To provide the minimum suitable control on this roadway the recommended by-law must be passed in its new fortn. Options, such ns constructing an on-site parking lot cannot be considered at this timc in Shadybrook Park to accommodatc the vehicles of visitors. It is therefore recommended that the uttached dralt by-law be npproved to regulate on-street parking ulong Shudybrook Drive in the arca of Sha�ybrook Park. Thc approved by-law must bc regulurly enforced to be effectivc. ATTACHMENTS: 1. DraII By-law 2. Location Mnp Prepared B• Approvcd / Endorsed By: �_ L C. tephen Brake, Coordinator E.
