The City of Kelowna is looking for feedback to improve accessible parking.

Using the feedback from a survey they conducted last fall, the city created a list of recommendations to improve accessible parking. They are asking the public for their input before the final presentation to council.

Between now and August 8, residents are asked to complete a survey about their thoughts on the proposed changes.

Some of the popular suggestions were to design more accessible sidewalks near stalls for wheelchair users, make a bigger effort to keep the stalls clear of snow and increasing fines for those who park in accessible stalls without a permit.
