Dave--The parking lot was closed in response to the terrorist attacks last fall, and the county board made a decision not to re-open the lot to the public. It currently houses county staff that pay to park there.
Personally, I am in agreement about opening it back up.

This lot is the most convenient lot for persons doing business in City Hall or the government Center. I recall that the lot was closed to the public after 9/11. If it is closed due to "terrorist threats" I cry foul. The lot under the federal court house is open to the public (albiet with a security guard there). If a lot under a federal court house is open, than there is no reason this lot, which isn't even under a building, shouldn't be open too. I respectfully request that it be re-opened to the public. I'm also curious, who is using it now and what are those users paying? Dave Harstad Whittier __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
