This week Mayor O'Brien and Councillors Wilkinson, Cullen, Bloess, McRae, & Thompson voted in favour to increase parking meter rates. The decision is to go to $3/hr on Mar. 1 & $3.25/hr on Oct. 1. The only compensation was given to not charge on Sundays & to charge until 7 instead of 9 pm on weekdays and Saturdays. This item goes to Council on Feb. 13.If REVENUE is derived from meters it should be directed to IMPROVING the supply of off street parking in areas that need it.
