Subject:Downtown parking prices are egregious
This message is from an External Source. Use caution when deciding to open attachments, click links, or respond.
Hi council members,
I and other locals are concerned about the spike in downtown parking fees.
The ridiculous $3 fee discouraging shopping downtown with local businesses, or making us park far away near residents
that I'm sure would rather have more available parking where they live.
$6 to go to Linnea's then shop at Blackwater? That's wild.
There are many other ways to get funds for downtown projects. For instance, defunding the police. Local businesses are
not happy and locals are not happy. This is a mismanagement of where funds should come from. There are other ways.
Please reconsider. This area is already massively expensive as it is, and is pushing the poor residents outside of slo while
the rich suffer no consequences.
Thanks.
