Community Corner
Snow Emergency Parking
Hello Charlestown Residents,
With a lot of snow about to be dumped on our city, and a parking ban in effect that started at noon today, let us not forget that we all part of the same community. It is times like these that we must put whatever sense of entitlement we have aside. I am referring to the saving of parking spots. I can stomach people engaging in that behavior for the duration of the parking ban, and only then reluctantly. For my part, I never do it. The spot I dig out after the storm is for the community as a whole to use. I am happy to put in the hard work so that one more spot is available for us all.
In situations like these, the hard work you put in does not indicate indefinite ownership of a parking spot, no matter how difficult it is to accept.
Be good to one another!
