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

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.

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

The expense associated with drug addictions are huge. Treatment would be a good investment and a bargain in the long run
ReplyIf our tax dollars are already going towards their prison expenses, we might as well pay for rehabilitation instead of continued incarceration.
ReplyPeople act in desperate ways when they're suffering from addiction. Treatment would likely reduce crime.
ReplyEither way you spend the money. Prison, where the person comes out to live in your community with skills you may wish they didn't learn while in prison. Or hopefully successful rehab.
