I would not support a McDonald's, a Burger King or a Dunkin' Donuts at that site, but this is a restaurant, really. I wish they had waiters and waitresses so it would be a little easier for us to classify it, but for lack of a better term, they're calling it fast food.
The only thing I can say is this seems to be what was asked of the petitioners. You're getting rid of a horrible situation where cars are coming in and out at will.
The petition doesn't hold water. Your concerns do, though.
We've been dealing with this (parking issue) since the beginning, and every single councilor knew there was going to be a reduction in parking. There was an error in not filing for the reduction.
(The council had) every right to raise the issue.
