Extra Parking for Lady of Assumption Church

The Church has once again requested that Council exempt
it from the parking restrictions on Shaughnessy Street in front
of the church in order to allow extra parking for the Christmas
Eve mass. The exemption would apply from about 5:00 p.m.,
Christmas Eve to 2:00 a.m. Christmas morning. As usual, the
church would be responsible for covering the parking signs and

lifted for the period from 5:00 p.m., December 24th to 2:00 a.m.,
