That Report OES 21-07 of the Director, Operations & Emergency Services regarding a proposed amendment to the municipal traffic by-law 6604/05 be received; and 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 and on private and municipal property. Executive Summary: In response to concerns with roadway traffic flow difficulties and poor sightlines due to vehicular on street parking at the bend along Edgewood Road, the City was asked to implement parking restrictions in order to ensure a clear travel path and unobstructed visibility. Having completed the review, staff support the request and hereby propose to amend the existing traffic by-law as per the changes attached. Financial Implications: The acquisition and installation of no parking signs is estimated to cost approximately $600 and can be accommodated within the Roads current budget account 2320.2409. Sustainability Implications: The concerns as presented to staff and the recommendations generated by staff address traffic safety issues and their impacts on residential properties and are relevant to the social lens of sustainability. Report DES 21-07 May 14,2007 Subject: No Parking By-law, Edgewood Road Page 2 h (" ,.. ~ .~ d Background: In response to concerns from the community, municipal staff were requested to investigate and implement parking restrictions along the south side of the bend on Edgewood Road (as shown on the attached sketch). The residents within the area noted difficulties caused by on street parking and the potential hazard of having to encounter oncoming traffic while endeavouring to avoid parked cars along the sharp curve. Community consultation notices were issued to the affected area residents on March 20 2007. The notice provided to the 68 area residents generated 20 replies (a 29% community response) and the following support/opposition for the following No Parking zone variations : Inside lane bend Outside lane bend Inside & outside lane bend No restrictions full limit 3 (15%) o (0%) 14 (70%) 1 (5%) The majority of the respondents indicated support for restrictions on both the inside and outside (north and south) lane bends on Edgewood Road. Consequently, in recognition of the concerns and support from the majority of respondents, staff recommend that the municipal Traffic By-law 6604/05 be amended to reflect No Parking along on both sides of Edgewood Road through the bend (see sketch attached). The corresponding draft By-law amendments are attached. Attachments: 1. Parking scheme diagram 2.
