2.6 million a year just from parking meters?!

Holy crap! And that is after what meter thieves help themselves to. If that is the revenue from change, I can't imagine what parking tickets bring in, or other bi-law infractions or motor vehicle fines. And throwing in all the revenue from other sources, not even taking into account revenue from taxes, I can't believe that the only way to build a convention centre is to siphon off money from a fund put aside for transportation maintenance. —Flabbergasted
