New parking lot for seniors not without critics

18 new parking spots.

That was the subject of debate at Prince George city council Monday night, as they move to creating a lot for easier access to a senior centre.

David McGraw, President of the Elder Citizens Association says rezoning the lot on 9th avenue will be a huge support for his members.

Several letters and emails, along with a petition of over 240 signatures were presented in support, but residents also turned out to discourage council, citing noise, traffic, and snow removal concerns.

McGraw invites any residents against the parking lot to come to the centre to see what they have planned and see how it would benefit the neighbourhood.
