Parallel parking downtown is here to stay.
Sarnia council did not direct the engineering department to start a review and design to reconfigure on street parking to angled parking downtown.
The switch to angled parking could have required a move to one-way traffic on Christina and Front Streets.
Staff had recommended the change as a way to address parking concerns identified in a public consultation session earlier this year.
Lack of parking, the cost and location of parking were identified as top issues.
