Merchants Oppose but City Considers Parking Meters
At a council meeting the merchants signaled strong opposition to planned parking meters while opposing voices warned a trial installation could lead to extended opposition. Dual Parking Meter Co representative William Buhl demonstrated the device and outlined operation, costs, and reception in other towns. If the aldermen approve, nickle and penny meters offering one hour twelve minutes of parking may cost 53 dollars each and be funded from receipts, with roughly fourteen months needed to cover costs. The council next meets to decide on proceeding.
