Viewfinder: Parkville Protests for Parking

Parkville residents gathered at the Lavender Avenue parking lot late last week to protest its sale.

On a windy April Fool's Day, about 30 Parkville residents turned out to make it clear to the Baltimore County Revenue Authority where they stand on the issue of selling the Lavender Avenue parking lot to a developer.

Parkville-Overlea Patch wrote earlier last week about a Revenue Authority board member who will propose ways for the community to keep its parking at an upcoming board meeting.  Read the full article here.

What is very troubling was the reporting of Arthur Hirsch of the Sun that the Lavender lot was not under-performing when compared to non-Towson lots. So, this really seems to be cherry picking non-Towson assets to sell to finance other Towson and golf course activitites. Notice on the BCRA agenda that they want to hire a "top 100" golf pro. How is the hiring of a golf pro more in the public interest than a parking lot that serves an entire community.
If they cant use the State Charter; and the tax free status subsidy; responsibly for the public good--then it should be taken away.
