THAT Report CD-28 -01 be received; and 2, THAT the fee schedule for Municipal On Street Parking Permits be amended as follows; Day Pass - Deleted Weekly Pass - $10,00 Monthly Pass - $35.00 BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: At the July 10, 2000, meeting Council approved the system of Municipal On Street Permits as outlined in the Addendum to Report WD-28-00. At the time of implementation, fees were set at $10 per day, $25 per week and $57 per month, Until recently very few passes were sold. Sales have increased as a result of overnight enforcement. Staff have heard several people complain about the price of the passes. In an effort to make the system more attractive, staff are suggesting a reduction in fees. To date, there have been no single day passes sold. As a result staff are proposing deleting the day pass and offering the weekly pass for $10.00 and the monthly pass for $35.00. The monthly pass would be less than the set fine for two overnight parking tickets. .../2 812 ! ~ j}-- Report CD-28-01 -2- May 22, 2001 Within Durham only Oshawa has an overnight arrangement where a person can pay $20 per month for permission to park in a municipal lot if there is one nearby. It should be noted that this is still an experiment and staff will prepare a further report on our progress. Reviewed by, d ~_u.5)~ Franklin Wu, M.C.I.P. Chief Administrative Officer PB*LC*bm 813
