[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At new condos etc. meaning not providing parking spaces . How do people shop? Buy large items?  Get away to avoid a domestic abuser? He claims it costs less to not have parking spots so costs go down. Laughable [/quote]

If these are new condos, I assume the people purchasing them will understand that if they want parking, they will need to pay a fee at a local parking garage.

[b]Why would you be against this? This makes perfect sense near transit. I do hope the proposal also restricts access to local parking permits if one lives in these residences. [/b]

Less dependence on cars in transit adjacent places is a great thing. I typically roll my eyes are the hard core cyclists that want bike lanes everywhere but developing new residence that do not require access to vehicles is a great thing.  People can choose not to live their if it doesn’t fit their lifestyle. [/quote]

TO answer your question, I repeat my post from above:

I'm not sure why someone who has lived in a neighborhood for 10 years feels they are more entitled to a street parking spot than someone who just moves in.

Wait, it's actually even dumber than that. It's that someone who lives in a residence that has been in the neighborhood for a long time (regardless of when they moved in) feels more entitled to a street parking spot than someone who liven in a newer residence (regardless of when they moved in). Just silly. [/quote]
