NORTH YORK, YORK COUNTY. Pa. (FOX 43) – A York County firefighter with a disability says he is being discriminated against by North York Borough council members after applying for a handicapped parking spot.
28-year-old Christopher Wilhelm says he put in an application to get a parking spot in front of his on on North Duke Street a month ago.
In a council meeting on Tuesday, Wilhelm says the borough questioned his disability and duties at the firehouse and told him his application was put on hold.
“They said well are you willing to give up your volunteer firefighting career for a parking spot?” said Christopher Wilhelm, volunteer firefighter at North York Borough Fire Department.
