		<description><![CDATA[$81 is effectively the 3 hour rate ($6) plus the parking ticket ($75) you would have received for having stayed past the 3 hour maximum time allowed for the City Hall parking lot. Blame those that have been abusing the limbo that the CoH have been in with not being able to deal with parking violators at their parking lots. I think this is a smart solution, it effectively allows the CoH to collect the parking ticket that would have been issued without have to arrange anyone to issue parking ticket.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What happens within the city limits of Hamilton is the responsibility of the COH, NOT the Government.

Why would traffic wardens be out of a job? They will need to be even busier  chasing the street parking shufflers.

Totally agree on the lack of bike parking spaces. The COH should be encouraging the use of bikes to comute by providing more all day parking &amp; much more short term bike parking. Having to ride round &amp; round for a spot just to run in someplace for a quick errand is nuts.

Have not seen what is resered for police but did recently come across another example of police given way too much space. They have a huge amount of space reserved for them at the short term dock at Dockyard. Nowhere for somebody wanting to take a party to a restaurant &amp; having a &gt;25&#039; boat to dock. Bad enough that so many of the other short term slips seem to be occupied by fulltime squatters.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am sure some lawyer who has left his car over 4 hours will contest the charge. It is a charge, not a fine. Also the vehicle is not clamped. You can drive it. You just can&#039;t take it out of the carpark till you pay the $81 fee. The gate won&#039;t open for you.

All day parking at Bulls Head at $5 is dirt cheap. If anything there should be a tiered parking fee structure in Bulls Head. Pay more to park in the shade of the lower levels. Pay less, even free, to park on the top level in the sun.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have a question put forward by my 9 year old daughter.

&quot;Daddy, if the C of H does this all around Hamilton, will that mean that my Auntie (a Traffic Warden) and the others be all put out of a job?&quot;

On another note, since everyone likes to lambaste the PLP, why didn&#039;t the UBP  make this a multi story parking lot in the first place?...(BEFORE Bullshead...before you smart people open your mouths)

What needs to happen C of H is to add MANY more bike parking spaces because one has to literally circle every block just to find one. Instead of planting those obtrusive jutted out sidewalks and taking valuable space so these restaurants can seat people in the walkways, you should have thought of the two-wheeled motorists

And lastly, WHY did you allow practically an entire block of parking spaces be given to the police?...and WHY aren&#039;t the officers ticketed for parking their PERSONAL vehicles in those spots?.....because is not fair. 

Also PLEASE remove the cycle parking bays at the traffic light on Court Street outside of the police station (travelling north) because this seriously impedes the traffic by blocking the left lane. 

Whoever your engineers are they need to be fired for this idiotic design...but then again Hind..make him retire just like every other Bermudian has to when they reach that age!!!]]></description>

<p>What needs to happen C of H is to add MANY more bike parking spaces because one has to literally circle every block just to find one. Instead of planting those obtrusive jutted out sidewalks and taking valuable space so these restaurants can seat people in the walkways, you should have thought of the two-wheeled motorists</p>
<p>And lastly, WHY did you allow practically an entire block of parking spaces be given to the police?&#8230;and WHY aren&#8217;t the officers ticketed for parking their PERSONAL vehicles in those spots?&#8230;..because is not fair. </p>
<p>Also PLEASE remove the cycle parking bays at the traffic light on Court Street outside of the police station (travelling north) because this seriously impedes the traffic by blocking the left lane. </p>
<p>Whoever your engineers are they need to be fired for this idiotic design&#8230;but then again Hind..make him retire just like every other Bermudian has to when they reach that age!!!</p>
