I would like to express my appreciation to the Town Council for its decision not to approve the budget for Main Street parking. I would also like to thank Carl Franco for organizing the petition, which I believe played an important role in informing the Council’s decision. 

While many of us remain hopeful that the town may eventually reconsider its decision regarding paid parking on Elm Street, it seems unlikely that this will happen in the near term. In the meantime, local retailers are already feeling the impact.
