Overview

The City of Richmond Hill's terms of reference for a Parking Study, last updated June 2025, estimating a development's parking demand and supply by type — general, accessible, small vehicle, electric vehicle — or supporting a reduced parking rate. It notes that under Bill 185 a study in a Protected Major Transit Station Area can be limited to a supply summary. The evaluation covers Comprehensive Zoning By-law 30-25, the Accessible Parking By-law, parking surveys (days, intervals, weather, proxy sites, ITE rates), TDM measures and EV Ready and EVSE spaces.
