First yes Manhattan needs some kind of residential parking enforcement. Those of us who live in the congestion zone sometimes need cars. While transit into the center of my city is good, getting to places out of the center or out of the city is much tougher. Bloomberg's original proposal was supposed to exempt residents at least for one crossing round trip per day. This governor blinked as this was going to cause a business slowdown in lower Manhattan. Traffic has already diminished over the last ten months. The issue is the MTA is wildly out of control with insane expenditures. Our last governor showed them up when they had this hair-brained plan to close our L train for over a year, he had experts from Europe come and show that the work could be done much cheaper and dramatically faster than MTA's own plan and that work got done cheaper and faster. I'm OK with congestion pricing for improving traffic and pollution I'm not OK with it subsidizing corrupt crony over priced contractor schemes.
