Report Overview
The provisions of Clarington Traffic By-law 2014-059 governs all parking enforcement matters
within the Municipality. Private property owners may apply to have private security companies
undertake enforcement duties on their own land and issue municipal parking infraction notices.
1 . Background
In the fall of 2015, Staff were approached by Mr. Peter Alves on behalf of Guardian Property
Management Services Ltd. Mr. Alves' company, Nemesis Security Services, had been
contracted by Guardian to provide officers for parking enforcement at the condominiums
located at 55 and 75 Shipway Avenue, in the Port of Newcastle. In order to be able to perform
the enforcement duties, Section 15(1) of the Police Services Act, RSO 1990, c. P.15, requires
that Nemesis Security Services to be appointed by the Municipality.
2. Discussion
This proposal involves both a property and a company that have never had private parking
enforcement within Clarington before, and as such it is necessary to approve the site and
appoint the company by by-law. Once the initial appointment is made to the company, there
will be no need to bring the matter back to Council every time the actual officers change. Any
officers who will be working at the site will be screened and trained by the Manager of
Municipal Enforcement, prior to commencing their duties.
On January 8t", Staff attended the property to determine if proper signage had been installed
pursuant to the Traffic By-law requirements. Staff concluded that the area had been properly
and sufficiently signed for parking enforcement.
3. Concurrence
Not applicable
4. Conclusion
The proposed by-law will appoint the employees of Nemesis Security to carry out the
enforcement duties at the site.
5. Strategic Plan Application
Not Applicable
