Introduce yourself.
Describe the problem.
Say what you think the council should do about the situation.
Dear Sirs,
My name is Mrs. Emily Chan. I have been a resident of Lonsdale Avenue, North Vancouver, for several years. I am writing to you with reference to the changed parking conditions that came into effect from the first of February last year. I believe these are an inconvenience to residents and should be reconsidered.
In the past, I was always able to park my car on the street outside my house without any problems. When metered parking was introduced to my suburb, particularly near the market, some visitors started parking their vehicles further away from the market in order to avoid payment. My street appears to be the perfect place for those people: it is not too far from Lonsdale Quay Market, and the parking is still free. Between March and May, I occasionally found it hard to park, but when summer finally arrived, there were two days a week when I was forced to park hundreds of meters away from my home. On public holidays, I resorted to metered parking myself.
I understand the local council hopes to benefit financially from metered parking, or perhaps to encourage people to use public transport. Nevertheless, residents like myself are inconvenienced by this system. I suggest either resident be allowed to park free in metered zones which extend a greater distance or metering cover a smaller area, and ticket prices are raised. Additional bus services would also reduce congestion.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs Emily Chan
