I tried to go to the meeting regarding the valet spots but there is no American Legion Hall at the corner of Adams & Chestnut Streets. Nor was it at Memorial Hall. Where was this meeting? As a neighbor to Olives, the valets take up resident parking spaces. I would have liked to voice my opinion on this but was unable to because of inaccurate reporting. Would you please report on whether this meeting took place and where or if it was rescheduled.

The American Legion Hall is at the corner of Adams and Chestnut Streets. There is no sign and you enter through a door off the parking lot in the rear of the building.

I am sorry to hear that you didn't locate the hall to attend the meeting, but I think that you, and other's may be confused also about taking residents spots! After 8:00 pm there are no resident spots! And before that you always can contact BTD for the parking violation. Just a point to ponder.
