If I'm replaced by 3 tourists then good for Asbury Park Boarkwalk
vendors!
I'm just willing to bet there would be 4 of us with free parking.
Not one tourist is coming BECAUSE there is metered parking.
Some (like me) will stay away because of it.
Remember, when I don't pay 50 cents to park, I also don't buy $15
worth of beach passes.
One of those tourst families is going to have to park for 30 hours
that day to make up for me not buying beach tickets. Or all three
of them for 10 hours each, where the City breaks even but the
vendors lose my business.
Here's the inquiry then:
If the City and the vendors on the BW can make more money from the
meters than from those of us who will stay away, then the Meters
have passed the risk/utility test.
If that's the case, then no one can complain. Me in particular.
It's a smart move on the City's part if they make more money from it.
Query though why the developer opposses it?
I'll be at the free beaches...
"Keepin' it real!"
Sincerely,
Clamdigger
