Re: “Burlington Considers Its Parking Options”

Just a historical perspective - The Burlington Business Association along with the Burlington Parking and Transportation Council back in 1999 actually spearheaded the 2-Hour Free Parking Program in City garages to help support Burlington downtown businesses compete with the retail growth taking place in Williston where there was free parking. This program has been a huge success for the past 15 years for many reasons. Everyone coming into town appreciates having free parking if only for 2-hours. The 2-Hour free parking was supported by a tax assessment to businesses which we are still paying. Mayor Peter Clavelle worked with the Burlington Business Association to make this program work. I encourage the Parking Committee to support the continuation of 2-hours of free parking in all City Garages - it is very important to the economic vitality and success of all of our downtown merchants.
