📣 Important! The City of Terrace is resurfacing the 4500 block of Lazelle Ave beginning as early as September 3. Construction is scheduled to finish by early October. 🚧

➡️ Our office building will still be open, however, please be aware that street parking on the block will not be available during the construction period. There is street parking north and south of our office on Lakelse Ave and Park Ave, and parking is also available at the Sportsplex.

➡️ Because of the lack of parking, we're making garbage tags available for purchase over the phone ($10 minimum) to be delivered via mail during the construction period.
