Object to Parking Signs. The chief grievance of the merchants seemed to be against the "don't park here" signs. "We don't want the ordinance entirely removed so that the police will have no authority, but the signs might be taken down," said Lee B. Nusbaum. Councilman Frank Howells explained that no time limit had been written into the ordinance, but that by an understanding with the police department, thirty minutes was allowed to shoppers. If the limit were raised, he said, the old conditions of blockade and fire menace would prevail. "Thirty minutes is not enough," declared Henry Goldflnger. "This ordinance hampers our . business with out of town people." "The ordinance has had a fair trial" declared Elmer Eggemeyer," and it is not only unfair to our patrons but to the merchants themselves." City Attorney Bond, declared that there must be some kind of a traffic ordinance, and said that visitors to Richmond must understand that they must abide by certain necessary traffic rules. William H. Romey said that the changing of the traffic signs to read "Please park on side streets" would remedy the'matter. William Bockhoff suggested that a modification of the signs be made first, and that if on trial it was shown that a modification of the ordinance it self is needed that could be done later.
