The $45/year parking fee for all is not a huge issue. But it's a slippery slope: what's to prevent a future city council raising the price to $400/year if they so deem their budget to require it...sorry I mean if "the climate emergency necessitates it"?

Well, that's what they did to the WestEnd residents who are now buying in to the parking permit program
