Another side to the story

The letter “So What” is the January 21st, 2009 West Prince Graphic does not reflect the accessible parking situation says the general manager of Tignish Initiatives. Anne Arseault, the general manager said “The disabled blue parking spot is always kept clear of snow, except in a storm. We keep the ramp clear and use salt if ice forms.” She explained that the parking lot is cleaned with a snow blower and had an inch of snow that day. The path for a wheelchair from the parking to the door was clean and clear. “We have dedicated staff who check on that several times a day,” Arsenault added. “We do our best everyday to keep on top of it. It is winter on PEI you know.”
