Robin Hooders visited Laconia, NH’s downtown yesterday. Â Not a single parking meter in sight, but yet there are plenty of businesses in their bustling downtown.
How can this be? Â If the city of Keene’s claims are to be believed, parking meters are necessary to help businesses – what a crock!
The city people are lying. Either that or they are seriously misinformed about parking meters. Â Plenty of towns and cities are doing just fine without them.
Instead of raising the rates, parking meters should be abolished entirely.
