Web Form: The changes to the Zone 4 parking permits for MCPL staff is a disgraceful lapse of judgement. The city MUST offer alternative parking options for hardworking public servants commuting to the downtown area. If it is too much work to discover a reasonable accommodation then you must relent and return the permits to the MCPL Human Resources department to disseminate amongst staff who need them. To serve the public we have to get to where we serve the public reliably. In the winter, in the rain, in record-breaking heat, and especially during the university's academic year when downtown parking is at its scarcest. To be treated like a problem that will scuttle away in the name of making a little more money on parking meters is folly compounded by blatant cruelty.
