Robert D. Smith asked me to forward this message to the Minneapolis Issues List
[...]I got ticketed at Mhaha recently and everything you say about this new policy is dead on. There was no way for me to buy a ticket and the closest free parking was way the heck far away and we had a bunch of stuff to haul for a picnic.
[...]I am left with no other alternative but to buy a $27 ticket for my two or three trips to Minnehaha a year ($9 a park) or quit coming.
There's a lot of free parking at Minnehaha, all along Minnehaha Ave. south of the traffic circle. You can park on the street or in one of the lots down a little ways. If you want to picnic closer to the paid parking area, go there, drop off your stuff, and then move your car to one of the free spots.
I can understand not liking the new Parking Permit set-up. I don't like it myself. But a little attention and cleverness will keep you from having to pay for the permit.

TEMPORARY REMINDER: 1. Don't feed the troll! Ignore obvious flame-bait. 2. If you don't like what's being discussed here, don't complain - change the subject (Mpls-specific, of course.)
