It will benefit neighborhoods. There would be more parking spots and the streets will be less congested.

Depends on the area. If it's a busy area and parking is a problem, absolutely. Not so in n'hood where it is not an issue.

People parking in neighborhoods are not showing any respect for residents.

I don't agree because we will need to pay for a permit. I think we should be able to park where we can without any restrictions.

If this city would stop putting businesses without enough parking in residential areas, we wouldn't have this issue. All homes/apts should be required to have off street parking areas.

Steven Daniels

Public streets are for the public. If you don't like it, move to a gated community and pay for your own streets.

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Michael Turpin

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Jay B Lane

Nobody is sitting outside in the winter months and Street dining should be limited May - October months. Also what is not needed is 4 season dining in these structures (walls. Heaters, etc) when restaurants have room inside. If eateries don't have room inside, shouldn't be taking public space

A few circles around the area, I always find a spot. It’s not any different than any other city. I like seeing people enjoying the outdoors. That’s why we live here.

NO, with all the info out there about scams, it is inexcusable for anyone savvy to be taken in by such. However, seniors are particularly vulnerable, and family should assist them in avoiding scams. I had to take away my mother's phone when she entered assisted living and later memory care.
