I our opinion Parking Meters would send a message that is not consistant with what this wonderful town really is. Our family has been coming to Blue Ridge for over sixty years. Please don't tarnish your history and what you stand for. We love you all.

Absolutely no for parking meters. There is not enough parking as it is....parking meters will deter residents and visitors.

Retired people will not visit Blue Ridge with parking meters.

Blue Ridge is such a charming town, set apart from the larger suburbs of Atlanta. Why the need to throw up parking meters? It would change the look of the town...you're already getting a new Wal-Mart...why the need to charge visitors and residents to park downtown? Keep the big city out of Blue Ridge!

Blue Ridge is a lovely, fun place to bet it is a beautiful downtown area. Please reconsider putting up parking meters which will only sour the look and force us to suspend our downtown activities to rush back to our cars.

Blue Ridge is such a beautiful town just the way it is...visitors receiving parking tickets for expired parking meters will chase them away to visitor friendly communities to shop and browse...

When I visit towns with meters, I am more focused on my timing than I am enjoying the sights. Which makes the trip unenjoyable and discouraging to revisit

Parking meters sound like a great way to kill downtown Blue Ridge.

You will drive away many visitors that love this town just the way it is!

do not do this! Athens had constant reoccurring issues because of parking meters and many friends of mine avoid going downtown at all just because of them!!

Meters are for big city's. Don't take away the small town appeal!

Meters for pushing people out of their parking space (hence out of downtown) is the opposite of what you really want. Check Augusta GA to see how this idea fails to support downtown shopping. I am a Fannin County home owner and soon to be residient.

No parking meters in downtown Blue Ridge please. They would discourage patronizing those very businesses that people from all around come to visit.

Parking meters will deter visitors from shopping/dining downtown
