...so I got a parking ticket the other day. Ya I know...i'm just full of violations these days....anyways...that annoys me. Why do we need to pay to park in Ydot? It's just the downtown that has this issue and let's face it...there aren't that many people to worry about parking. The spots you want right in front of the banks or the few stores down here are always taken so you need to use those parking lots that are a bit of walking distance from wherever you want to go...why give me a ticket for a parking inconvenience? It's $5 if you pay it right away...then $15 after that....not a huge sum of money, but it's just the point. We pay taxes to keep the pavement in order...and I suppose we pay taxes for the parking ticket person to give me a ticket to park somewhere I technically paid to park...common! The Mayor parks his mayormobile in a no parking zone everyday and doesn't get a ticket, nor does he have a parking pass...why can he park for free? Also, this said illegal parking takes place directly infront of the parking ticket office!
Sometimes you're longer than 2 hours....like when you go to the gym, or the accountants, or even the hair salon. What if you have a full day at the spa? You supposed to run out in the mini parking lot by the salon with your mud mask and bathrobe to move you car? According to the signs and the law, that's exactly what you'd need to do. Oh but wait...if you want to go to the lawyers office....the lawyer that tends to hang with the other illegal parker in Ydot...you get a little sign to put in your window. No tickets for his clients...no way...now is that fair?
Apparently I need to get in Ydot politics to get a free parking pass...
