Businesses urged to close for hour against parking meters

The Movement Against Parking Meters (MAPM) is urging the business community to close for one hour during a planned silent protest on Wednesday at City Hall.

During last Thursday’s protest by MAPM, a number of businesses closed their doors between midday and 1 pm as a mark of support for MAPM. Businesses in the paid parking zones have complained about diminished business as motorists have boycotted the meters.
