“I love everything about living hear except for Guest Parking. My Aunt came over to drop off items for about 30minutes and instead of using the 4 hour parking pass, she just paid. My Dad also came to visit for the weekend, and felt rushed trying to leave by a certain time before the parking pass expired. He arrived at 1:15pm on Saturday, and would have stayed longer on Sunday, but didn’t want to waste another parking pass for just 2-3 hours. Last place I lived, we received a few parking passes to give to our guests so timing wasn’t limit and the visit didn’t feel rushed.”
