    Unreal. If you want to allow someone to park on your yard, and charge $20-430, who cares? Just goes to show you...YOU OWN NOTHING...You are a renter here just like everyone else.

    Ugh, they have to have passes to park their own cars in their own driveways? That's insanity.

    The city was mad the homeowners were siphoning away 'their' revenue - greedy bastids.

    Around Churchill Downs everyone used to do this and it was cheaper that parking in the city lots, and closer.
    Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” (Jefferson's "Commonplace Book," 1774-1776, quoting from On Crimes and Punishment, by criminologist Cesare Beccaria, 1764)

    Chaisson said she plans to contact the state attorney general’s office to see how the bylaw can be reversed.

    On Monday, Town Meeting voters narrowly agreed by a count of 73 votes to 50 votes to discontinue the practice and charge a $100 fine per vehicle, per day for violators.
    They voted for this to happen. Meh.

    I've heard that their club is accepting new members. All it takes is $600 worth of airsoft parts and the permanent sacrifice of your penis.

    So 23 people in a town of 20,000 get to deny property owners' rights?

    I've been here about 13 years, and I'm still getting used to this Town Meeting system.
