While parking can be tough, as a taxpayer who's already paying enough in property taxes I hope the city can drive significant revenue from parking, as virtually every other shore town and city already does. It's the price we pay for living in a town that has the kind of attraction that draws people in (the beach). There are plenty of places where street parking is easy to find and free. They are in non-beach communities.
I would love an annual parking permit, much like an annual beach badge, which many have discussed in this thread. But the expectation that you can live near the beach, always be able to find a spot right in front of your house and not pay for parking is simply not reasonable. The city needs revenue, and for a shore town charging for parking is critical. Or we can all just pay more for property taxes. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "dfsavgny" <dfsavgny@...> wrote: > > Well that could be alleviated by having resident parking only in those areas. > But you have no absolute right to park in front of your house.
