The fact that they sold the Oak Street Garage to developers should be reason enough not to allow them to raise the rates. At first I was not bothered by the sale, where many people where, I was foolish enough to believe what I was told to my face, that nothing would change other than ownership, but of course that was a lie, now we see the garage is an office building and we lost valuable parking here in the Grove so that a developer could, what else, over-develop.
