Subject: city hall
the long weekend just past gave everyone extra restthe graffiti artists extra time to play
in my rest, I dreamed they ‘painted’ City Hall
my God !! they did, you should see the parking lot !!
their expertise gained 1 (remember just 1) more parking spot and to top that off a one way circle, yes your right, in the parking lot
there used to be 12 spaces on the south side of the parking lot,
now only 9 and for only City Hall, permit holder spaces only
gee! just think there are 9 city council positions (their reserved parking?)there used to be 5 spaces on the east side and 6 on the north side (curb side against city hall)
now the front roadway is one way with curb parking; just imagine the sliding of vehicles downhill into fellow citizen vehicles in the winter, not very wise or safe design
does anyone deserve to be re elected with this expenditure waste ??
the new parking spaces and circle surely will see damage to vehicles

I used to do hotdogs at the Farmers Market downtown and saw ex Mayor Korpan’s vehicle parked at the metered parking for over a week, he had apparently gone to Vancouver. Anyone else would have received a hefty fine but apparently.
