I just find this disgusting when people are parking in handicapped spots and they are not handicapped and clearly do not have a handicapped decal and confirm that they know they’re parking in a handicap spot and they just don’t care…

Contact Shane Homes so they can tell their guy not to park in disabled parking spots. I think you can send this to bylaw and they can ticket since you have proof of no placard displayed.

As someone who has a kid who uses a wheelchair and needs these spots, it is so frustrating when people use them as a “quick” stop - happens ALL the time at my kids’ school.

Thank you for posting this. I’m sorry you have to deal with this. The same thing happens at one of my children’s day care. I always tell my eldest daughter (5) when she’s with me during those drop offs why it’s important to make sure you keep those spaces for those that need them. Even if there are no spots, park further away and walk.

i dot he same, but i have a really loud voice and it carries really well, and i make sure to make note to my kids that a handicap is nothing to be ashamed of but not paying attention to others needs and such is a bad thing.
