Grapevine publicizing parking authority's extortion

The godfather-esque logo is really key too. Check it kiddos.

    This is actually a big problem for grove business. The money is supposed to be put in a kitty for some supposed garage that supposedly is to be built in the future. In other words bullshit free money for the city at business owners expense. We haven't paid it in a few months. We'll see what happens but this NEEDS to be repealed.

    Seems to me like the explanation from the parking authority was fairly solid.

    fairly solid? yeah, nearly as solid as a Madoff investment plan.

    What I read was that they've previously given chunks of this money away to private businessmen, who then built garages (needed for their building anyway) and who charge ridiculous rates, which certainly turn a profit. Classic Miami.

    I guess I should have been more clear- as it pertains to the parking authorities involvement is what should have said. This does not seem to be their policy, nor do they collect the funds.
