Currently, there is a proposal under consideration to delve into the introduction of paid parking and various alternative options. However, this notion remains conceptual and has not progressed toward actual implementation. This examination involves a comprehensive exploration of all potential resolutions, including partnerships between the public and private sectors. The town lacks ownership of suitable spaces to expand parking in the town center, but there are privately owned areas adjacent to it, occasionally used for parking during noteworthy events. While the town values the kindness of these owners, it cannot insist on their unrestricted use. The execution of such a program carries obstacles and associated expenses, and until a clear understanding of those obstacles and expenses is obtained, a final decision will not be made.
