I can tell you first hand, it is very dangerous trying to enter Straits Highway! When the parking area is full, it is impossible to see oncoming traffic!

Another unfamiliar tourist is behind them following close. Now there's a standoff with neither willing to move from their position. By this time 15 cars are backed up behind growing more irritated by the minute. While backing in the car swings wide with its front end going into oncoming southbound traffic with an already narrowed lane and nowhere for oncoming traffic to go. Now traffic is stopped in both directions. Why should any of the people who commute daily through this town to work, shop or go to school be inconvenienced due to ill conceived parking. These very same people will eventually choose to bypass downtown using 75 and by doing so not purchase anything from local businesses. It seems to me that the local business employees have benefited from the current lot and parking by the chamber. I doubt this will change come busy season. There is no evidence I have seen thus far that give any benefit whatsoever to changing the current parking scheme. Ban the back in.

The area being considered is a high volumn traffic and pedestrian area and will cause serious problems for traffic and people crossing the road. The former use of curbside parking for residents and tourists pulling boats, campers, and motorhomes will be eliminated and cause mass confusion and a loss of income to businesses along the street. Stop this insane plan NOW.

Gov't motto: When it doesn't work and people don't like it do even more of it!

]]> Thu, 28 Apr 2016 11:12:42 UTC 19958352 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/19958219?utm_medium=rss There are many other options for parking and the DDA needs to look at other concepts that will work for us. Let's avoid a repeat of last summer's back-in parking that confused and inconvenienced visitors and residents.
