S.20.2-20: Free Parking Act (Failed)

[Deep Dixieland Senator, Muad'dib (OSR MSR)]

While parking fees are annoying, sometimes the point of the parking fees is to ensure that people don't congest streets and can't take prime spots for the whole day. Especially when there are also parking lots available. While the regional government revenue won't be hit (Local Councils will). It's unfair to simply ban local jursidctions to set their own rules and rates regarding parking.

I motion for a final vote. 24 Hours for objections.
