City needs to cut parking red tape
For most Toronto residents, parking their vehicles is straightforward: they park them in their driveway, garage, or both. However, many residents don't have either of those options, and, instead, rely on parking spots added by altering the landscaping of their front-yards and the boulevard portion of their property. Homeowners are required to obtain a permit from the City for such parking spots.
It stands to reason that there should be no added red-tape when a new homeowner inherits an existing licensed front-yard / boulevard parking spot when they purchase the property. While City rules do allow the license for an existing front-yard / boulevard parking spot to be transferred to a new owner, they also require that the new owner complete an application and pay a fee of $115.10 to have the license transferred. According to City staff, it may also be necessary to have the parking spot inspected by City staff before the license can be transferred.

Privacy Compliance & Do Not Call
"If a seller has noted, in clause 11 of the listing agreement, that they do not want to be contacted after the expiration, cancellation or other termination of the listing agreement, there is no time limit. Any contact is prohibited – whether by telephone, letter, email, etc. Realtors should not contact them to market your services."
