Mayor & Council August 23rd, 1974

L.D. Pollock, City Administrator

At the last meeting of Council Alderman Mabbett requested that the Public
Works Committee be contacted for the purpose of making a recommendation regarding
parking regulations on McAllister, Whyte, Marpole, and Wilson Avenues West of
Shaughnessy Street.

The Public Works Committee have had discussions on this: item and Alderman
Thompson, Chairman of the Committee, has indicated that he is reluctant to
recommend two-hour parking restrictings on these streets in view of the fact that
many of the residents park in front of their homes, particularly on Whyte Avenue.
The use of signs indicating "Residents Parking Only" are impossible to enforce.

Alderman Thompson has requested that as an interim measure that we place
a notice on each of the cars parked in these locations asking the driver's
co-operation in using the existing City-owned parking lots and advising that we
do not wish to institute two-hour parking; however, that we will have to do so if
co-operation is not received.

The above action will be taken and the situation will be monitored over

next few weeks and a further report will be made to Council at that time.
