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

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.

That would be useful to know who u were in contact with that has the corona virus
ReplyI would want to be notified if someone turned up to have the virus and I was there at the time they were.
ReplyYaa voll!!......PAPERS PLEASE!!!!!!!
ReplyDuh. Whoever says it's not beneficial is probably more concerned with their own privacy than the common good. It's a fine line I get it. #weareallinthistogether
ReplyIn an unprecedented and dangerous time for the health of our citizens and our economy we need to do everything we can to keep safe.
ReplyUntil this virus is under control with vaccine, it is probably a good idea in order to be able to notify customers in case another customer becomes infected. it's called community tracing and it helps
Replybetter to open and err on side of caution that allows contact tracing
