The resident's idea, as submitted
The idea
As the neighborhood becomes more gentrified, residents need to have their parking protected. All for more Roxbury resident parking in Highland Park.
Who it helps and why
It is not fair to have ample residential parking in the Seaport, Bay Village, Back Bay, North End, West, End South End, JP and Fenway despite being commercial areas with ample resources including garages and other private parking options. Along with a robust access to public transportation as Roxbury residents are facing more difficult in parking.
