Update: Councilman K e v i n   M c K e o w n  has said - "On my motion, both affordable parking for 1423 2nd and other low-income
housing downtown and multi-modal parking to accommodate motorcycles,
scooters, etc., were added to the Planning Department work plan as part of
the adoption of our annual City budget."

I told him we appreciate that. So we'll see what happens.

..............................
How the Santa Monica city government treats its downtown residents with disdain when it comes to parking. Disabled and low income residents suffer from ridiculous policies that are also unfair to non-disabled and non-low income residents as well.

One of my main points, which I don't feel I emphasized enough in the video is this-

The structure was built to benefit the city of Santa Monica. That's EVERYONE in Santa Monica. Not just the downtown residents...EVERYONE.

I was told by Council Member Ted Winterer that the reason downtown residents have to pay so much more is because the city must re-coup the money it spent to build structure 6.
But why only the downtown residents?

If the structure is for EVERYONE'S benefit in Santa Monica.
Why doesn't Ted ask everyone to pitch in to help recoup the money for the structure?

Why is he singling out one group of people and saying YOU, more than anyone else, YOU, the downtown residents have to bear the burden to recoup the money for the lot.
None of the other residents of Santa Monica have to pay more, just the downtown residents.
Why?

The downtown residents sacrifice their overnight street parking for the good of everyone in Santa Monica, and then have to pay 39 to 96 times more for parking...for the good of everyone in Santa Monica.

That's completely unfair, unreasonable and illogical.
