Four parking spaces are disappearing next to Gravenhurst Fire Station #1.
The Fire Department’s headquarters is located at 190 Harvie Street.
The reason they’re going is to allow for the maneuvering of large station vehicles and training apparatus and for maintenance purposes.
“We appreciate the public’s understanding and cooperation with this small change at Station #1. It will provide greater flexibility and increased safety for the public around the station,” said Gravenhurst Fire Chief Jared Cayley.
The Gravenhurst Fire Department in collaboration with the Gravenhurst By-law and Facilities divisions is working to make the changes happen.
Before any parking enforcement happens, an education and awareness blitz will take place, with the By-law division issuing friendly notices for the next two weeks should anyone park in these identified spaces.
Still-available spaces remain in this lot in addition to the existing parking spaces across from the station on Harvie street.
