Junction Parking Fact, who ok’s the meter and Green P parking rates?

 

While the Parking Authority can set the rates before you can be made to pay they must have been agreed to by the Ward Councillor.

The Parking Authority shall be authorized to fix rates for on-street parking meters
or parking machines, provided that such rates do not exceed $3.50 per hour and
have been agreed to by the Ward Councillors for the Ward in which the parking
meters or parking machines are located. [Amended 2009-12-04 by By-law No.
1181-2009]

Wonderfully there is NO definition the word parking in the document,it refers to parking in a very generic way, only using another word once “carparks” when referring to the right to build more carparks.
