Parking stupidity

To the editor:

The city's approach to parking need to be tougher.

If Interior Health wants to build downtown, they need to provide parking in their building for workers and clients, not look to the city to provide parking.

Condos, malls, apartments etc. have to provide parking .

The head in the sand attitude towards cars, that if we don't provide parking they'll take the bus is just stupid. When was the last time a city councillor took the bus?

The new Hospital  is a perfect example of ignoring a real problem and letting the neighbourhood solve the parking.

A new building beside Save on Foods in the Mission is being built, so now the parking lot at Urban Fare is crammed.

How did they get a building permit?  Where's their parking?

Not much gets me angry, but obvious stupidity does.
