From Sharon Linscott:
 
A little over a month ago, I had a Birch Bay resident, along with a visually impaired resident passenger,  come to me after not being able to find a parking space on a Rotary day.  At the next meeting I stood up to request that Rotarians leave several spaces for residents.  This past Thursday I was approached by the same resident who came back on Wednesday, again with the visually impaired resident, to find no parking spaces available.  I must now ask that all Rotarians park beyond the purple pole that has the sign "Resident Parking Only".  I am hoping that this works because our residents have the right, as this is their home, to come back and find spaces available.  And I appeal to the 4 way test for all Rotarians to do what is right in this instance.  If this continues to be an issue however, I will then have to ask Rotarians to park on the perimeter only.
