Fenty parking plan flops
If you were gearing up to try to understand Adrian Fenty's latest Washington Nationals stadium parking plan, you can gear back down: The D.C. city council rejected the proposal yesterday on an 8-5 vote in favor. (Because it was presented as "emergency legislation," the bill needed a nine-vote supermajority.)
What happens now? Let's turn it over to council voice of doom Jack Evans:
"We're back to square one. The question for us is, 'Where do we go from here?' People keep coming back to the council because they don't know what to do and want us to solve the problem. . . . I hope everyone goes away from the council and tries to solve the problem in another fashion."
Perhaps they should try this.
