Accessibility & parking

In response to this subject, as a senior with some days of very bad arthritis when all joints are highly inflamed, I wish something was in place, for public parking as well as in shopping malls for spaces dedicated to seniors.

Many are already in place for mothers with young children but they are way more mobile than seniors with arthritis on very bad days. I was a young mother with three young children and managed regular parking just fine.

Also there should be service gasoline stations available in Maple (and elsewhere) for people who have difficulty getting out of their car to gas up. On bad arthritis days, even pumping gas is a challenge when one has no strength in their hands.

Please consider your seniors with physical challenges at all levels which will demonstrate respect that is so important to model to our young generations.

Respectfully,

A Maple resident
