It would seem that now would be the most illogical time to do so, with te need to encourage people to, nhop dlown- town. There'n a lot more competition out there now. I recail year ago when we had an attendant who kept track of te cara parked on Main Street by marking the tires, thus advising fxîlks otf their lengthy stay. He*d also remind staff otf the busi- nesses not to take up valuable parking spots of their custaîmers. l'Im not sure this methaid can apply in tItis day and age. but a retired persmn might like to take on such a challenge. We've got to keep downtown Milton alive and welI. lt's been a positive exana- pie for many smal towns in the paat.
