Majority support Zurich parking restrictions ZURICH - The results of a park- ing survey in Zurich are in, and if council follows majority opinion, few changes can be expected in parking restrictions in the village. Concerned about public backlash against tightened enforcement of a no -parking zone around Zurich's main intersection, council issued 300 surveys to ratepayers and re- ceived 160 responses. Of those, 90 said they would prefer to sec the parking restrictions left as -is. Seven respondents advocated is- suing warnings to those found parked in the no -parking zones, 19 wanted the zones made smaller, and 18 wanted (he restrictions abolished outright. "I think we're probably going to leave it as is," predicted clerk - treasurer Maureen Simnlons, but noted she had received another two complaints from parking ticket re- cipients on Monday alone. Council will be reviewing the sur- veys and will be making its conclu- sions al its July meeting. Poaching goes against our nature! • v Conadlon Wildlif.
