<br /> "If you~recall, when the Federal Building was in the planning stages, the City of Portsmouth,
<br />in order to keep business downtown promised ample '~ff Street Parking" for the.federal building employees.
<br />They eredted signs posting the property on Water Street, immediately in back of and off to the
<br />left of'the Federil Building facing the river for Coast Guard employees and Postal employees etc.
<br /> Now we are told they will resurface the area and put in parking meters, some .25~ a day and
<br />some .10~.
<br /> There are approximately 2S0 people, posslbly more, driving to work each day in the Federal
<br />Building. If meters are put on the lots on Water Street that means S5.00 - $6.00 a month ~
<br />that will have to co~e out of the pockets of each one driving to have space to park, plus t~nnel
<br />fare for ones living ~n N~rfolk and comanuting daily.
