Commission Turns Down Additional Parking Spots at Little League Field
The proposed overhead lights will be considered separately at an upcoming Planning Commission meeting, most likely in April.
The city of North Canton will have to do without 78 more parking spaces at the Little League field.
The commission met Wednesday inside Council Chambers and decided to turn down the site plan for a new lot at the ball fields. Right now, there are 277 parking spots.
According to The Canton Repository, the planning commission voted 3-2 to reject the city administration’s plan for additional gravel parking spots at the city-owned fields.
