:58:31
What about the parking meter
in front of your store, Aaron?
:58:33
Out of order.
:58:35
- Mr. Chairman...
- Out of order.
:58:36
Chair will hear a motion accepting report
of parking meter committee.
:58:41
I move that the town meeting accept
the report of the parking meter committee.
:58:44
- Second.
- All right.
:58:46
Motion made and seconded report
of parking meter committee be accepted.
:58:49
- All in favour?
- Aye.
:58:51
- Opposed?
- No.
:58:53
Motion carried.
:58:54
Mr. Chairman.
:58:56
Chair recognises Otis Denham.
:58:58
How about fixing the parking meter
in front of your store?
:59:00
- Out of order.
- All right.
:59:03
I move that the broken parking meter
in front of Caldwell's store...
:59:07
which has never worked,
so that anyone who wants to park there...
:59:10
and maybe spend some money
in Caldwell's store...
:59:12
can do so without paying the parking fee,
be repaired.
:59:15
- Second.
- You went too fast.
:59:17
I'll repeat the motion.
:59:19
I move that the broken meter
in front of Caldwell's store...
:59:22
be made to operate by money
instead of a swift kick.
:59:25
- Yeah, second.
- Point of discussion.
:59:27
Chair recognises Matilda Runyon.
:59:29
You've kept that parking meter busted
on purpose ever since it was installed.
:59:33
We know it, and you know it.
:59:35
But before we vote on this motion,
I think we ought to remember one thing.
:59:38
Just about everybody in Cape Anne goes
to Caldwell's store just about everyday.
:59:42
He's got canned goods, dry goods,
fruit, vegetables, and he's got beer.
:59:46
Now wait a minute.
:59:48
If we vote
to have that parking meter repaired...
:59:50
we'll just be taking money
out of our own pockets.
:59:54
Any more discussion on the motion?
:59:57
- All in favour?
- Aye.
:59:59
- Opposed?
- No.
