Poll: Do you think workers are taking up too many CBD parks?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

Central city businesses are losing shoppers because workers fill up all the car parks, a Hamilton retailer says.

The “P” word came up when Hamilton City Council met with members of the Hamilton Central Business Association last week - and a councillor told retailers worried about parking changes to make themselves more attractive to customers.

Do you agree with retailer Barry Radford of Hanrad Bespoke Rugs, who says more parking buildings for workers are needed?
