Please repaint the parking lines at the Waterdown YMCA

I have a big family and we really need wider parking spots to load and unload my 2 months old baby. Also every time my wife and I need to take extra caution with our 4 years old son to open the door carefully to do not damage other vehicles and our vehicle also!!

Wider spaces are needed for the many families who attend with their children. Sometimes parking away from cars is not an option during peak times. Wider spaces would be a huge convenience.

small spots

We go to the Waterdown Y for swimming with our kids every Saturday morning...no word of a lie...My husband who was driving had to climb through the passenger side to get in the drivers side because a car was park so close to ours. My son had to do the same thing. We were livid. There was approximately 2 inches between cars. We couldnt believe that someone would park like that! This petition is a great thing and I hope something is done about it soon!

spots are way too small- dings and dents are common occurances, as kids fling doors open without regard to the vehicles next to them.

needs to be redone.

We appreciate that this forum has been developed to bring this issue to attention. The YMCA takes any concerns related to the safety of members and the community very seriously. Our facility management team will be visiting the branch to investigate this issue later today. We will communicate any next steps at the membership desk. It is important to note that the land in where the Flamborough YMCA branch is situated is City property and is also shared with the school board. Consultation would always need involve those partners to ensure the appropriate number of parking spaces are in place based on legal agreements before any changes could be made. Please feel free to contact me via email at [email protected] with any additional questions. Sincerely, Kyla Kumar, Vice President YMCA of Hamilton/Burlington/Brantford

Just started using the Y and am hesitant to continue if my door is going to be damaged

Parking spots are way to small

I find the parking spots are far to narrow, especially if you are trying to get children in and out of car seats.

It's difficult to park in the summer and next to impossible in the winter.

The Y's parking lot has to have the narrowest parking spaces. All too frequently you return to either barely any room to open your doorwithout making contact to the one next to you, or a miserable door ding. Very annoying! Please repaint the parking spots and allow more room to park.

yes the parking spots are to small, need to be wider

parking lot is terrible. Spots way too tight!

Love the Y, hate the parking!

the spots are so tiny .... I am a small person and I have to squeeze in I could not imagine how pregnant lady get in and out or a baby in a carrier ... ..Please repaint the lot :)

I have a Mazda3 and still I have a hard time getting my children in and out of the car because the spots are so close together.

I love the Y, but it is impossible to get an infant car seat in and out of my car when a car is next to me.
