Ward 6 On-Street Parking Public Meeting

I would like to invite you to attend the Ward 6 On-Street Parking Public meeting to discuss parking issues in your community and the On-Street Residential Pay Parking Pilot Program that was implemented in the Alton community in 2016. Please join me and Parking Services staff on:

                        Date:   Tuesday, October 1
                        Time:  7:00 – 8:30 p.m.
                        Location:  Haber Recreation, Room #2

In 2014, Council directed staff to develop a permit parking system in consultation with the community to address the needs of residents who, for various reasons, find that they have more vehicles than they can park on their own property. This was a staff direction aimed to alleviating the parking issues being experienced in a number of neighbourhoods throughout the City. Ward 6 participated in the pilot project, as there was a need for on-street parking in Alton Village. The pilot was restricted to Alton Village only.
