Councilor Penta's article on Pay to Park
ROBERT M. PENTA: Medford
business owners must act to
protect customers, employees -
If the mayor owned a business, had
employees, had to pay for the electric, gas, workers comp, insurance,
water/sewer bill, provide sick and vacation time, maintain
building/renter and vehicle upkeep, he would have a better understanding
why a small business man/women is at issue.
But fortunately for the mayor, he has
never had to do this while he derives a yearly city salary of $142,000
at the taxpayer’s expense.
Business owners need to mobilize
and
demand a hold off
implementation of this new
program until all concerns
are
readily addressed or consider some
type of legal action.
— Robert M. Penta is the senior
member of the Medford City Council.

people don't want to park and work

Are Harrisburg's higher parking rates scaring away customers?
In the beginning, people complained that Harrisburg's higher parking
rates and fines would hurt businesses by deterring customers from
visiting the capital city.
Have increased parking costs impacted your downtown Harrisburg experience?
On Thursday, PennLive learned that
Zia's at Red Door,
a restaurant on Second Street, is closing Friday. The owner blamed
parking as one of several factors in the restaurant's demise.
