YYY/ CORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF NEWCASTLE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT HAMPTON,ONTARIO LOB 1 JO TEL.(416)263-2231 REPORT TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE OF FEBRUARY 8, 1982. WD-9-82 SUBJECT: PARKING - CAROLINE STREET, VILLAGE OF NEWCASTLE. RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully recommended that: 1 . This report be received, and; 2. By-Law 80-156, being a by-law to amend By-Law 79-1 , restricting parking on both sides of Caroline Street, from Baldwin Street to Church Street in the Village of Newcastle, be rescinded, and; 3. By-Law 79-1 , being a by-law for the regulating of Parking on Highways under the jurisdiction of the Town of Newcastle, be amended to permit Parking on the north side of Caroline Street, from Baldwin Street to(Church Street) in the Village of Newcastle. BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: Resolution # C-1420-81 and C-1422-81 directed that the Public Works Department amend the by-law which governs parking, in order that parking be permitted on the north side of Caroline Street in the Village of Newcastle. 5uik In 1980, concerns regarding such parking on the Wort side of Caroline Street, from Baldwin Street easterly, in the vicinity of the Newcastle Arena, resulted in Report WD-159-80 and an adopted recommendation to amend the by-law. Subsequently By-Law 80-156 was passed establishing parking restrictions on both sides of P� jir i WD-9-82 - 2 _ Caroline Street, from Baldwin Street to Church Street. In April of 1981 correspondence was received from the Newcastle Arena Management Board complaining of the restrictions and the general re- duction in parking facilities; Report WD-68-81 recommended that By-Law 80-156 remain in effect and, thus, the status of Caroline Street remained unchanged. REPORT: Staff have noted that there are approximately ten (10) spaces which would permit parallel parking on the north side of Caroline Street, in the given area, and that the wide gravel shoulder of the roadway would allow vehicles to be parked off the travelled portion of the road. The Public Works Department will make every effort to maintain the shoulder of Caroline Street in a condition suitable to safely accommodate parking; this work will be included in the normal , ongoing, maintenance works undertaken. A proposed by-law, to amend By-Law 79-1 , is attached hereto. Respectfully submitted, David T. Gray, C.E. . , Deputy Director of Public Works. February 3, 1982.
