I agree with DaveBNH, The city shouldn’t be nickel and diming people. It’s ridiculous

Walking is preferred by me anyways, so I could realistically park anywhere.

Greed is the cause of most of this type of activity. Jack up the ticket costs and meter fees, pad their pockets….etc..

@Chad, Downtown Ft. Worth is the same way. They provide several garages that are free of charge and it is much nicer and easy.

Parking fees are always a major topic of discussion and not sure there is a right or wrong answer. I know parking fees can bring some much needed income to cities especially in these slow times but also know that here in Scottsdale we have free parking throughout downtown Scottsdale and think in a way it makes it more desirable as people can easily get down here and park and spend their money in the stores.

To have a thriving downtown is a good thing. I can never understand government doing things that might impact that. We have the same situation here in Bend Oregon.

In my opinion, i think it’s best since it would make more available spaces on street parking. I know it’s a sensitive issue but i’m just stating my opinion.

I think that most people would disagree with that option, even though it appears easy and simple. Almost painless if you will. I would like to see what more people think of that in depth.

It’s a tough issue, that definitely need a solution… not exactly sure it should be paying more.

This same issue is being discussed by our city council. Duluth has a much smaller downtown area, but our roads are terrible, so if the profits were to go to there, I would be for it.
