The Sarasota city commission voted this afternoon to suspend paid parking meters in downtown sarasota and to "bag" them until at least October 1st, while they try to reach a long term solution.

It would have been nice if they had thought of the consequences of putting in the meters before they spent $600,000.

You should see the pretty cloth covers they put on the meters! With the Sarasota Logo on them. Must have cost a bit to get those covers made.
What a fiasco!
