The following resolution has been placed on the agenda for Monday's City Council meeting by Ward 3 Councillor Matthew Shoemaker and his Ward 4 counterpart Rick Niro.
The meeting will be livestreamed by SooToday starting at 4:30 p.m. Monday.
*************************
Creation of parking lot for Gore Street
Mover: Councillor M. Shoemaker
Seconder: Councillor R. Niro
Whereas merchants on Gore Street have long had concerns about adequate parking on Gore Street; and
Whereas the Gore Street streetscape project has resulted in fewer parking spaces on Gore Street; and
Whereas council directed staff to further reduce on-street parking to improve the sightlines at the Albert Street and Gore Street intersection;
Now therefore be it resolved that staff look at options for a parking lot in proximity to the Gore Street business area and report back to council with options prior to the end of the year.
