Then your opinion is in direct opposition to Mr. Stannard who has at numerous meetings talked about a parking problem. |

There are two camps on this issue: those that think a problem exists and those that don't. And it appears neither can convince the other to the contrary.
It seems to me that parking is much better than in other downtowns I've seen. There will obviously be ebbs and flows in parking demand. It is unclear whether people are arguing that the town plan for, and accommodate the highest levels of parking demand Cranbury encounters in a given year (sort of like planning for a 100 year rain event). I struggle with having an opinion on this issue in the absence of any data. I value the perspective of local businesses, who I presume are those arguing that sufficient parking does not exist. However, personally I am satisfied with parking and would also suggest we consider the consequences of adding more. What would we need to give up to gain more spaces? |

If he really beliecves that, its hard to have any respect for his position as a Township Committee member then because that's just crazy. It's like having a Congressman argue that the Earth really is flat. That's how credible it is to suggest we have a parking problem in Cranbury. |

Are you joking?
Seriously, name ANY downtown with less of a parking problem than Cranbury in the real world? Anywhere. Maybe Chernobyl.
Even on the most significant events in Cranbury, like Cranbury Day or the 5th of July there isn't a parking problem. If its easy to park nearly by on Cranbury Day when most of Main Street is shut down, how can you possibly argue we have a parking problem. I arrived 15 minutes before the fireworks show on July 5 and still parked 2 minutes from where I watched them with a fantastic view. |

Maybe we can put a 3 story parking deck in where the PNC bank lot is. It would do something with the propery and take care of "All our nonexistent" parking issues.
Or we can install parking meters to deter people from coming into the downtown area....lol |
