Mayor Kirk Caldwell can stop the madness by vetoing that bill to provide reserved parking spaces all over town for car-share customers (“Council OKs bill to set aside stalls for car-share,” Star-Advertiser, July 4).

It does absolutely nothing to reduce the number of people looking for a place to park in congested parts of town. What it does do is grant a favor to selected members of the community to have first crack at a parking space.

It doesn’t require that member to give up ownership of a car. It only grants a privilege to anyone who wants to take advantage of the favor of a reserved parking space.

While he’s at it, he can get rid of those favors granted to electric-car drivers. The subsidies all taxpayers pay for clearly benefit people who have not really done anything to combat climate change.
