Update: Lunatic's Guide to Parking

I feel very satisfied. For the first time I wrote to the DC City Council members who voted against Carol Schwartz's stupid parking fine exemption bill to thank them for their integrity. The Washington Times recently published a follow up article about parking and camera fines in the district. I was happy to see that three council members (Brazil, Chavous, Allen) who voted for the exemption are now gone. There are several new initiatives on the table to generate revenue for the city and screw the residents at the same time. My favorite is leasing out parking spaces to commercial car rental companies (my guess is Zip Car). 29 of these spaces are near my neighborhood. And now, I will shut up about parking in D.C.
