No More Free Parking in Downtown PDF Print E-mail

Want to warn you regulars who have been coming down earlier with the free parking. The meters are back in place. Bring change.

It appears short sightedness and politics took hold. From what I heard, some city council members may have voted to put the meters back because of politics as much as any other reason. Citing a shortfall of about $10,000 of lost revenue per month. The problem with this figure is it's a gross figure, and doesn't take into account other gains in revenue or reduced expenses. Such as increased taxes with better sales figures, not maintaining the meters, or paying to have the meters cleared of money and counting, etc.

By Steve Sobon

I recently saw a news report about a girl’s basketball team winning 100-0 and thought about when I started playing competitive Magic. I wasn’t thinking about the winning team, I was thinking about being on the losing side. For my first year, I swear I lost almost every single match. This article is about losing, and gaining some insight from it. This is about getting better at a game you love, so you can receive even more enjoyment from playing it. Let’s look at a few things that can turn us all from being on the outside of the top eight to the top seed.
