In 1986, Council approved payment-in-lieu parking provisions.
PURPOSE
An application pursuant to Section 4.12 of the Parking By-law has been received to waive the number of parking spaces required by Section 4.1.2 of the By-law and to make payment-in-lieu. The particulars of the application are as follows:
Address: 19 West Cordova Street
Applicant: Uta Nagel, Cordova Development
Zoning: HA-2
DE No. 408416
Type of Development: New Commercial Retail and Residential building
Use: One residential unit over 2 retail commercial units on ground floor.

Parking Provided: 2
No. of Spaces for Payment-in-lieu: 1
Recommended Amount/Space: $14,500
Total Payment-in-Lieu Amount: $14,500
A review of this application found that payment-in-lieu is appropriate, given the site constraints and the lack of opportunity to provide parking by another means.
