g) That staff be directed to review Zone 8 – Lowertown West on the map of existing on-street parking zones, and prepare for Committee a recommendation to deal with situations where, because of heavy use by employees or patrons of the Byward Market, parking permit holders have very little possibility of parking, and that staff look at exclusive rights for permit parking holders for specific parking spaces in that area.
