Need Off-Street Parking The Decatur city council will discuss Tuesday night the possiblity of buying a good-sized lot in downtown Decatur to provide additional off-street parking, some 96 spaces, for the convenience of people coming uptown. Every city in the United States today is facing the same problem — the need for uptown parking. It is not just a Decatur problem. And most of the cities, especially those which plan to continue their growth patterns, are buying parking space, metering it, and doing everything they can to keep up the taxpaying centers of their cities. The small towns of the nation can still do this. But look at the blighted cities, where huge urban renewal projects are necessary to move industry out of the center of cities, put in new parking and apartment areas, and new street and recreation areas. J Decatur can still meet this challenge. Twen-ty-five years ago the city had a chance to buy three times as much land, in approximately the same location, for a small sum, but the council turned it down as “too expensive.” The land is now quite a bit higher — but it will be higher yet the next time any is offered for sale, and it will be offered in progressively smaller parcels. Some use the Jame excuse that this is just an “area” problem, and the people living or owning property in the area should buy the land. Poppycock 1 Is it an “area problem” when a street is paved ? Os course not! And certainly a paved street adds to the value of the neighboring real estate, and keeps the assessment high| and the rate low. The purpose of government is to accomplish those tasks which the individuals cannot do by themselves, and distribute the cost equally among those in the corporation, according to their assessed valuation. / Now is the time for a progressive, forwardlooking city administration to take action. A prosperous city hieans plenty of work for all the laborers, convenience for the taxpayers and housewives and less holdup in city traffic. Let the councilmen go on record. Many of them are up for re-election. If they want to retard the growth of the city, let them so vote. If, they want the city to grow and improve, let them show their vote Tuesday night.
