Parking/Transit Need To Work Together

In any urban center, parking and transit are intertwined--and one common councillor would like to see the parking and transit commissions amalgamated to cut down on costs. 

 Donna Reardon telling common council she thinks it's the ethical responsibility of the city to provide a transit system that works best for citizens who don't have any other option.

Reardon says by joining together the transit and parking commissions the city can save a lot of money and avoid duplicating services.


Councillor Bill Farren warns it could be a long process considering the city first started talking about amalgamating the boards back in 2004-2005.
