| Overflow Parking |
| The First Congregational Church of Shrewsbury the
Shrewsbury Public Library have a cooperative parking arrangement that
allows overflow parking for library functions at the church lot, and
church service overflow on Sundays at the Library lot.
In order to support this cooperative arrangement, we ask that participants
using our meeting rooms adhere to the following guidelines.
- Comply with the signs that are posted at the entrance to the
church lot.
- If the posted sign indicates that library parking is allowed
today, you may park in the lot, but please be sure to park in the
space around the perimeter of the lot that are closest to the cemetery
building and the cemetery. Please do not park close to the church
or in the spaces in the middle of the lot.
- If the posted sign indicates that a church function is taking
place in the lot, DO NOT USE THE CHURCH LOT FOR OVERFLOW PARKING
Your respectful adherence to these guidelines will help the both
institutions address the parking needs of all their users. We thank
you for your cooperation.
