Changes to 3 Avenue S. will cost businesses customer parking

I work along 3rd Avenue South. I think that maybe for downtown the two-lane road might work well as there is somewhat adequate parking in and around the businesses.

However, further east there is no walk-up traffic. People come to the businesses here for specific products and not just browsing or eating.

With the new idea we will lose valuable customer parking in front of our stores. I also find that Lethbridge is not great at keeping green spaces green. Who will be maintaining these trees? Park benches are for parks and highly used streets. Neither of these are this far east on 3rd Ave. That is my two cents on the matter.
