Parking Lot Update: As approved by the Church Property Board and Council, due to congestion created and potential
damage that could occur when vehicles back from the current marked island parking spaces, effective immediately, no angle
parking will be allowed along the farmer’s field. Parallel parking will be marked later this Spring, however, if snow removal
from “island parking area” and “rear parking access driveway” fills in part of the parallel parking spaces, NO PARKING
WILL BE ALLOWED in this area. Please see diagram below posted on bulletin board in hallway. Thank you.
