“Now that we have the beautiful new Can Do Community Park built at the corner, there is no longer the parking lot available to customers. Thankfully Mayor Jeff Cusat agreed to offer free on-street parking to customers in order to make sure that people can easily support our market without the fear of a parking ticket,” said Mary Malone, Chamber President and market coordinator. Parking spaces dedicated to the market will be bagged accordingly.
