The procedure for this type of request varies from one borough to another and can be complex.

Examples of procedures

You may be asked to get a certain number of signatures (a petition) from residents on your street to justify a new parking zone being created.

The borough may also survey residents or launch a public consultation instead of or in addition to the petition. 

In all cases, the information collected will be compiled into a study that will be used to make a decision.

The process may take several months.
