alternatives for employees and would provide long and short term parking for shoppers The proposal follows meter feeder controversy which erupted at city council last fall Meter feeders are persons who leave their cars parked at downtown meters all day and continually fill up the meters with money Merchants are believed to be the main culprits and that it leaves less parking space for downtown shoppers Council proposed last fall that anyone parked over two hour limit be ticketed even if there is money still in the meter But public outcry following an Examiner story forced the city to reconsider its decision BOARD CONTRADKTORY Ald Ernie Rotman said the suggestion by the downtown board was contradictory He said if the city did not enforce the two hour restriction right away it would defeat the pur pose of trying to entice shoppers downtown But Benevenuti said the board was looking for workable alternatives He said that once the tiered parking structure was built the board would be in favor of the strictest means possible to prevent meter feeders from plugging parking spaces Peter McIntyre member of the board said that because of the citys layout merchants cant provide offstreet parking for employees The board also expressed total opposition to any future one way street systems in downtown Barrie Benevenuti said there is no pressing traffic problems downtown which require such drastic and upsetting solution as this Barrie general committee will look into the downtown boards recommendation at future date Mayor Ross Archer told the board Spending concerns board

operations said the addi tional work was necessary for safety reasons The money will be used to replace fixtures and wiring The wiring is in very poor condition Our recommendzr tion is that fixtures and wiring be replaced at the earliest op portunity Harvey said Frank Prothero trustee for Tottenham told the board that the recommendation should have been broken into two parts with the work not budgeted for listed as separate recommen dation Trustees he said were forc ed to vote for the entire amount or against the entire expen diture even though part of it was earmarked in the 1979 budget
