Reply to Another garage? More parking on Park Central? If you’ve got downtown parking thoughts, Springfield wants to hear them by [deleted]

How about for a reasonable yearly fee, giving downtown employees with proof of downtown employment, a parking pass to park in certain places? I really don't think it would be so hard to do. There's just st this feeling of like, we need you for our tourism...but we care more about our tourists than our actual working residents.

Agreed that it was probably done in bad faith with preconceived notions about the event and it’s content. But, the speaker should be held to account for actions like this. It seems pretty inexcusable to me. I can’t find any reason someone (specifically a parent) would think that’s acceptable coming from a position of authority.

18 years downtown at the same location, the parking has changed… a lot. The street parking at busy times is nil. The new apartments and hotels have used up every free spot. They put all the public garages on one side…. Needed more vision and prepared for msu expansion.
