Exemption granted for Maitland Street from the no parking 10 – 11 a.m. and 3 to 4 p.m. regulation. Exemption granted for King Street West, south side, from Emily Street to West Street from the no parking 10 – 11 a.m. and 2 to 3 p.m. regulation. Parking in City Park is currently limited to users of the park facilities and to patients of the Cancer Centre but new this year is that the Cancer Centre patients must purchase a Pay & Display to park in City Park Monday to Friday. We would therefore be prepared to allow the boaters to park in City Park but they would be required to purchase and display on their dash a pay and display receipt for the time they are in the park on Friday. A pay and display can be obtained from the Pay and Display machine located on lower George Street near O’Kill. It is $1 per hour between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., or $5 for all day.

Thanks Kara!!
Link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/karalesliejohnson/ Message from the photographer: "If anyone uses them in any websites or newsletters, perhaps they can credit me with my name ("photos by Kara Leslie Johnson"). There are a lot of pictures..maybe too many to scroll through, but it saved time by not sorting and choosing which ones to post. There are three sets, one for each day that have roughly 250 pics in each set and a set of 20 pics at awards. All three sets are in a collection called "DN Iceboat Canadians KYC Feb23-24, 2013". I didn't sort them by boat, because I wanted to get them posted sooner rather than later. Enjoy!" |
