Chief Administrative Officer Submitted by: PLB*LC*bm CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON 40 TEMPERANCE STREET, BOWMANVILLE. ONTARIO L 1C 3A6 T(905)623-3379 F (905)623-6506 827 -- # REPORT: CLD-002-01 PAGE 2 BACKGROUND The Municipality of Clarington's By-law Enforcement Division relies on information from the Ministry of Transportation's vehicle registration files to perform its functions for parking enforcement. Over the last five years, the Ministry has been attempting to streamline this data transfer. Currently, the Parking Enforcement Officer must compile a manual list of all vehicle licence numbers and fax them to the Ministry in order to receive registration information, The material is mailed back to the Municipality within seven to ten days, This process is time consuming and antiquated. The proposed agreement will allow staff to directly access the Ministry information thus reducing operating costs and time delays. RECOMMENDATION Staff are respectfully requesting authorization to enter into the Agreement on behalf of the Municipality in order to facilitate this data transfer. 828
