But it was in response to resi- dents’ concerns that council ordered the study of the area, in- cluding 18th and 19th Streets north of Marine Drive and 1800 block Duchess and Esquimalt Avenues that resulted in the decision to take drastic steps.

“One of our major concerns is safety,’ said Ald. Mark Sager, discussing the dangerous situation existing on 18th, such that emergency vehicles and garbage trucks have difficulty getting by when peopfe are parked on both sides of the narrow street.

As there are no funds in the municipal budget to upgrade 18th and 19th, parking will be iimited to one side of each narrow street.

Time-restricted parking with a two-hour limit on Duchess and Esquimalt Avenues, and perhaps on 18th and 19th Streets, will begin in order to eliminate commuter parking and improve parking turnover. apparently in favor of this move, providing that a permit parking system is provided to exempt them.

Exemption stickers will be pro- vided to residents, a maximum of two per household, for $15 each per year. ‘

The parking study came about as a result of focal concerns over the effect the proposed expansiun of the Legion on 18th Street would have on an area already suffering from parking and traffic problems.

But the Legion is not pleased with the municipality’s soluticn.

Peter Cherry, president of the Legion, asked council to put off the new parking plan for a year, to wait and see the effect of the cight new parking spots they are plan- ning to add to their location.
