Parking in Waterloo Region

[embe]

It's not at all the same as fencing in the yard.  It's the same as bringing some chairs and hanging out for awhile.  You 'monpolize' that space for some amount of time.  When you stop using it, someone else can come and take it.

If someone else can come and take it (ie: park their car on the boulevard in front of a driveway) that just seems like a whole other problem. 

Reality is a lot of the houses facing this 'parking crisis' have multiple tenants with vehicles.  So, instead of a 'traditional family' (hope I don't offend anyone here, so lets just say a couple driving age adults, on average), some of these are rental homes where you have 4+ driving age tenants that don't share their car the same way a family would.
