The City of Saskatoon has received a number of inquiries regarding issuance of parking tickets received for unpaid time in paid parking areas on Monday July 2, 2018.
Background
The Traffic Bylaw says paid flex parking is not required to be paid on Canada Day, which fell on Sunday this year. Because The Traffic Bylaw refers to specific days rather than using the general term “statutory holiday,” there is no automatic extension to the following Monday when a statutory holiday falls on a Sunday.
Starting on Thursday, July 5, Taylor Street East will be closed at McKinnon Avenue South for a water and sewer connection replacement. Work is expected to start after the peak morning commute and take 2 days to complete, barring any unforeseen circumstances or weather delays.
Parking restrictions will be in place on roadways close to the construction zone including sections of Isabella Street, Haultain Avenue and 1st Street East. Crosswalks on the north side of Taylor Street between McKinnon Avenue and Clarence Avenue will also be closed.
