Students get a few extra parking spaces and they get a little extra pocket change as well.
Dozens of UF students park on the front lawns of houses skirting campus. It seems to work out well for everyone. That is why it was kind of strange that the City Commission unanimously approved Monday night an ordinance to restrict that parking. The ordinance could become law at the commission's next regular board meeting Oct. 27. We were disappointed in the commission for not representing their student constituents.
