Home Depot parking upsets resident
A Pickering resident is fuming over the placement of hybrid parking spaces at the new Home Depot in the city. The hybrid spots are closer to the front doors than the handicapped spaces, Doug Johnson said. Mr. Johnson's wife Karen is blind and uses a wheelchair. The situation "enraged me because the handicapped parking in Pickering isn't great," he said. "I think there are more spots for hybrids than for handicapped parking. The hybrids are all across the front," Mr. Johnson said. There are 10 spaces set aside for hybrid vehicles and eight handicapped spots at the store, on Kingston Road at Dixie Road. There are also two spaces set aside for pregnant women or women with children. "They could have put in more handicapped parking or rearranged it," Mr. Johnson said. "They took the prime spots that could have been for the handicapped parking. I don't know how they got approval for this. It just didn't seem right to me. "Especially in the winter, I know you can't clear all the snow, pushing a wheelchair through the snow" is difficult, he said. Mr. Johnson said he spoke with a store representative, who said others had complained about the hybrid spot locations. "The store has the same amount of handicapped spaces as any other store. It's the same placement as other stores," said Tiziana Baccega, a Home Depot spokeswoman. Having hybrid spaces is a new initiative, she said. "The store is LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), so we wanted the hybrid spots," said Ms. Baccega. http://newsdurhamregion.com/news/article/119523 |
