LETTER: Overnight parking ban is suite solution

Surrey - The Editor, Re: "How can Surrey quash illegal suites for good?" the Now, July 17.

If the city was to ban overnight parking on the streets, both the illegal suite and parking problems would be solved with one stroke of the pen.

It would be a much simpler matter to ticket illegally parked cars than to figure out which suites are illegal.

I have never understood why overnight parking or, for that matter, parking for more than four hours at any time is allowed.

I paid for my parking spots when I bought my house with sufficient driveway room.

Why should I, or any taxpayer, subsidize other people's street parking?
