How would 2hr parking solve it though? To me, that's just inviting more problems
What happens to the people who live/park their cars on Cookman and walk to the train station? What happens to the employees who work and park on Cookman? If I was their boss I would not be happy that they are leaving for a "parking break" every 2hrs What happens to someone shopping on one end of cookman and is parked on the other end and only has 5mins to move their car and both hands full of bags?

Enforce 2 hour parking rules. Why is that not an option? Who loses in that scenario? Sometimes, the bullshit of this city amazes me. Approx. 6 weeks ago, I went to a council meeting, and a rep from iStar left a load of bullshit about the schedule of fixing roads in the oceanfront area, including my street, which is a pothole nightmare. They said they were going to start within days. Days and weeks went by, nothing happened. The rep also stated they were going to immediately do something about the eyesore of the Esperanza. They claimed they were going to wrap the site, and were prepared to do so starting the next day. Last time I checked, it's still an eyesore. Minor work was done on a sidewalk on the west side of that block. Seems to me the problem there isn't what you walk on, it's what you look up at. Maybe AP is just going to eventually become another gentrified playground for the wealty. That's becoming the American way more and more with each passing day. Screw the poor and middle class. Tell them to "get used to it" Fuck that. WE are starting to fight back. Get used to it. --- In [email protected], "dfsavgny" <dfsavgny@...> wrote: > > > > --- In [email protected], "Hinge" <hinge98@> wrote: > > > > Doesn't it really depend on the income level of the business's in a city > > with a parking issue?
