Campbell preps to revamp city hall handicap parking

CAMPBELL — City officials are working to improve disability access in front of city hall, using volunteer labor from the Campbell Memorial High School football team.

On Thursday, the city added additional handicap parking signs to mark the 100 feet of existing handicap parking in front of city hall. Previously there was only one sign, which created confusion as to where handicap parking began and ended and made parking enforcement difficult, Police Chief Drew Rauzan said.

FASTSIGNS in Boardman donated the signs, which cost about $900.

The city also plans to paint handicap parking symbols onto the pavement by July 24, Rauzan said. Michael Tsarnas of A-1 Industrial Maintenance Inc. will donate the paint.

Finally, the city will repair the concrete ramp leading from the street to the sidewalk in front of city hall. The current ramp is crumbling and has a crack down the middle, which presents a danger of tripping.
