If all I need is a prescription or want a quick diagnosis, I'd much rather use video chat to see a doctor than go to an urgent care clinic. Plus, it's typically cheaper!

Yes, as long as my insurance still applied.

Tom Fosdick

In this communications age, with atmospheric pollution driven by constant useless travel back and worth, staying at home and using Telemedicine just makes sense.

Sam Ackerman

I would try it. But I bet their most common answer will be to come in and see a doctor.

Pam Falcioni

Not only would this save me money, but being able to avoid the germ-filled waiting room would be a huge benefit.

Carol Fulkerson

I agree with the pro of avoiding the lobby that's a petri dish.

I'd much rather see a doctor in person. It feels more secure, more personal, and more private.

Many times we need hands on exam for diagnosis. Telemed might be fine for followup with Dr. with back and forth discussion about symptoms, meds, side effects since exam.

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.

Ka San

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.
