Petition background:

1) The YMCA-YWCA of Greater Victoria (hereafter, the Y) implemented in November 2014 a new two-hour time limit parking policy without adequately consulting with its members.

2) The Y management implemented this major policy change without clearly communicating to its members the reasons or justification for the change.

3) A two-hour time limit is unreasonable and untenable for Y members who utilize the facilities for more than two hours per visit, of which there are many.

4) Consistent with the Y’s mission of community-centered engagement, the Y’s members should be given sufficient opportunity to review and respond to any proposed parking policy changes.

Petition:

We, the undersigned, are concerned Y members who urge the Y management to immediately reverse the new two-hour time limit parking policy and revert back to the previous three-hour time limit policy.
