Downtown parking shortages present a recurring problem, according to downtown merchants and professionals. Parking is available at the Coliseum and a shuttle service could be a possibility. Business owners could organize their own car pools to provide transportation to parking lots. I would give more time to this issue as I become more aware of the nature of the needs and possible solutions. Success is never determined by a single thing or a single person.
Success comes as a result of doing many small things effectively.
The economic problems sweeping our nation are evidence that prosperity is not guaranteed. This problem is forcing businesses to either become more efficient or close their doors. Government, by tradition, has always been less efficient than business. The next administration must spend more time in the community gathering first-hand information, instead of rubber stamping someone's recommendation. I promise to be an effective representative of the people by getting factual information as well as public opinion.
