Overnight parking ban

A young homeowner without a driveway said a total overnight ban is a 'sledgehammer approach' that would tell hardworking families they're no longer welcome; she urged permits, more street cleaning, and resident surveys instead.

An electrician who sometimes works overnight said the ban would punish renters and overnight workers on Grant Street, create financial hardship, and questioned the cost of another study; she volunteered for a committee.

The Leicester Street resident who emailed the board about other municipalities' parking laws wants better overnight enforcement (police overtime ticketing) and supports an Ossining-style waiver system — but not a total ban.

A Marathon Place father of three future drivers asked the board to include a 'relief valve' in any parking policy, volunteered for a committee, and voiced support for the Embassy Theater project.
