plentiful and the number of convenient parking spaces is inadequate, it is a complete abomination to society that some people choose to park in such a way that they occupy more than one parking space.

Lately I have noticed numerous abandoned buildings around the Battle Creek area; the sight makes our city look run down and cheap. I believe something must be done about this issue such as turning the buildings into new city attractions.

Imagine living in a world where you get a $35 parking ticket every single week. For students at the University of Florida, this scenario is real life.
