Some landlords
have recently introduced a new policy regarding parking. In particular, they
have begun charging for the use of visitor parking spots. This change has led
to a number of complaints in my office as well as others I am sure. City
staff has thus far indicated that the City has no say in regulating this sort
of change. However, it has recently come to my attention that other cities,
such as Toronto, have passed a bylaw to deal with this sort of situation.
I would like staff
to review the Toronto experience and any other relevant examples they can
find in Ontario and report back to Council as to what options there may be
going forward to address the situation.
In particular, I
would like to understand the rationale behind why Toronto believes it has the
authority to be involved in the regulation of this type of parking change.
