Columbia news, views & reviews 
Why does Columbia even need parking meters Mt Joy does not have meters any more half the time there is not many cars down town are we so money hungry that need the meters do away with them
If we don’t have the meters, people living in the apartments will take all the spaces on the street. If that happens, visitors downtown will have no place to park. Since we do not have any signage directing people to the available lots, people will just opt to leave rather than drive around looking for parking.
Perhaps, that has validity: “The people living in apartments will take all the spaces.” Don’t other boroughs have the same circumstances; they have upper level residence along their primary shopping areas.
But, we wonder about all the exemptions and waviers that have been accorded selectively to persons and organizations renting housing in the Downtown Commercial (DC) district. Isn’t this still the rule in Columbia:
“2 parking spaces) per dwelling unit [Note: If desired, one space may be in a garage and one space in a driveway.]”
Isn’t this just one more another example of disparate application of existing codes and ordinances?
