I went to the Colour Run today and spotted the Windsor Parking Meter Maids ticketing all of the cars on side streets parked at meters that expired. I know its the bi-law in Windsor. I also know that downtown Windsor has become a ghost town of only "bar-hopping" teenagers and vacant, abandoned offices and past retail stores. An event like the Colour Run brings OVER 10 THOUSAND PEOPLE to the downtown core, where the city NEEDS people to go. So I ask the politicians of Windsor to give me a great reason as to why you cannot have "slack" days for one day events like these in an effort to make Windsor downtown vibrant again, with a good economy. Personally, I parked in the FULL parking garage. But friends of ours had to go to the meter 2 times during the event to put in more coins. And on the final one, they had a Meter-Maid 2 cars down from theirs, hovering around, waiting for the final 3 minutes to tick off their meter clock. WAKE UP POLITICIANS!!!! And this event was in support of the local Alzheimer's Charity as well. Wake up Windsor Politicians!
