Completely agree with Chris Campbell’s column. As a resident and local business owner, I think it is important to provide good access to public transit, including available free parking to promote people to use it. I wish that the city employees responsible for the poor decision to put meters in would be held “accountable” and have to pay for either the installation or removal of them.

Why should Burnaby taxpayers pay for this poor decision? Ever since the meters have been put into place, SkyTrain users (parking at) this station went down dramatically.
