SUBJECT: Farmer's
Market / Transportation
Reference: Council Meeting.. 8-25-2004
Hello Madam Mayor and Council Representatives:
Will citizens drive to the Farmer's Market?
*********************************************
Downtown / Uptown --- Shopping Alternatives |
|
| |
 |
|
Downtown --- Take
DART, ride (15 minutes),
get harassed by the homeless, shop, return home on DART with packages over
shoulder (15 minutes). Hope that mugging does not transpire in the DART
parking lot while looking for the parked vehicle (assuming it has not been
stolen. |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Downtown ---Drive (in traffic), park
($8.00-$12.00),
have a lunch, and return home (in traffic). Note that parking cost could
exceed lunch cost. |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Uptown Alternative -- Drive to "Big Box"
store quickly, park for free in lot patrolled by "Big Box" security, shop,
view a movie, then return home quickly and safely. |
|
| |
|
|
|
Which alternative is cheaper, safer, faster?
