Oliver St Farmers Market request 1st Avenue temp closure on Friday evenings

On Tuesday - WL Council, meeting as Committee of the Whole, will receive a report from its' Planning Technician proposing that the 1st Ave block between Oliver & Yorston Streets be temporarily closed from 4-9pm on Fridays.  Read his report to the Committee here

One aspect of the report that I'm disappointed in is the lack of comparison of foregoing (on a temporary basis) several parking stalls near Spirit Square in the same time period (4-9pm on Fridays) vs temporarily closing 1st Ave between Oliver and Yorston Streets during the same period

Meanwhile - I think that if the parking issues can be resolved, the evening farmers' market could be a wonderful thing for the downtown area....
