THUNDER BAY — A Thunder Bay businesswoman says the city's parking plan needs to go back before council to be amended because the metered parking fees and times are detrimental to businesses.

In the south core, Steve Vares, owner of Tilted Turret Pinball Pub, says his business also depends on a night crowd. The ample parking along Miles Street is now metered."I had to pay $21 to park outside of my own restaurant," he said.

Complaints of absent or poor signage for parking instructions at the marina are also being heard, especially from tourists. Hamilton says the plan is still evolving and additional signage is being contemplated while some is in production.
