We need to get off fossil fuels, and hydro can only do so much. Technology will make it happen!

I'd love to see it on people's and businesses roofs. That way it wont take up more land space.

We have domestic solar and I feel all new construction should have it.

Mrs. Steelman

Solar Power is definitely a promising new technology!

KTVZ

Seems to me the most abundant energy source in the solar system. So let's get cracking!

Facetious_Fetus

Hydrogen is the most abundant source of energy in the universe. Stop living in the past, Barney.

Get real - and no, not because it's dark at night. It can't pencil out now, and who knows when it will?

Hydro is a million times better

The advancements in nuclear technology are dwarfing that of solar power. Safe nuclear energy is the wave of the future provided people actually educate themselves and refrain from fearmongering.

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

Gary Dehm

Simply, they're unfair to other businesses. Each space represents potential income for one or multiple businesses. If parklettes are to remain, businesses should file an application per space with an associated annual fee, subject to increase rent cost/year. They cause more problems than they solve.

Pat Glandon

I don't shop downtown or eat due to lack of parking.

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

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.
