Parents,
I have been contacted by my landlord about his concerns with the parking lot situation. First, there is great concern for the safety of all of the kids going in and out and running across the path of cars, second our long line of vehicles waiting to either pick up or drop off kids is becoming difficult for other businesses during business hours. They have asked a couple of things of each of us.
** Please use the parking stalls if you are coming into the studio to pick up your child. The length of the building is NOT for parking at ANYTIME! As long as vehicles continue to drop off and pick up children and the flow of cars moves along, it is fine to drive by the length of the building, however if you are going to be there more then a minute or two, please pull into a parking stall and wait for your child, or park and come into the building to get your child.We cannot wait in front of other businesses and their doors of operation or their garage doors and block their way.
** Please remember to not remain in the same spot and have other vehicles have to pass you between them and the parking stalls as we feel this is a huge safety issue for kids running out in front of parked vehicles and being hit by vehicles passing the parked vehicles.
**After business hours we are pretty much the only unit open, so we have a little more freedom to wait a little longer for our child but we still need to think safety as it is dark and kids do run out across the lot and could easily be hit.
** Our landlord has been really great to work with and has asked us to think safety first instead of convenience as it could mean the difference in a child being hit or not. If we can do this we can continue to use the length of the building to drop off and pick up, if it continues to be a problem for other units in the building, they will enforce more strict regulations on us in the future. Hopefully we can all work together to make it work!
Thanks so much! Jeanine Nielson
