Wow, what an innovative way to raise money…
From Fox 28:
Some people in Ohio complain they received $25 parking tickets last week when their vehicles were parked in their own driveways.
Toledo Mayor Carty Finkbeiner defends the citations, saying they were issued under a city law against parking on unpaved surfaces — including gravel driveways. The mayor, who’s facing a recall vote, says he stands by the city’s acting commissioner of Streets, Bridges and Harbor, Susan Frederick, who wrote the tickets.
During a news conference Monday, Finkbeiner ignored a reporter’s question of whether the crackdown and fines are at all related to the city’s budget crisis.
What kind of politician would support ticketing people who have parked their cars in their own driveways? A quick Wiki search… ah, here we go:
Carleton “Carty” S. Finkbeiner (born May 30, 1939 Toledo, Ohio) is an American Democratic politician who is the current mayor of Toledo, Ohio.
I’m shocked, SHOCKED, to find a Democrat involved in dubious fundraising!
Read the rest of this d-bags Wiki article. He’s a real piece of work.
