A Pomona man volunteers to increase voters' parking spaces at Village Hall

February
4

Burt Singer of Pomona always thought that more parking spaces should be available at Pomona Village Hall when it serves as a polling site. He thought many residents might shy away from casting their votes because of the difficult parking situation there.

Through his observation, Singer realized that on an election day, election workers seemed to take up most of the spots in the small Village Hall parking lot. He thought election workers should park their cars in other locations so that voters can use more parking spaces.

To make the plan work, Singer offered his help in giving lifts for election workers who park their cars at the Hindu temple’s parking lot.

Singer said Mayor Nick Sanderson gladly accepted Singer’s offer, and Village Clerk Lisa Thorsen would help Singer.
So on Super Tuesday, voters should have a better chance to find a parking spot at the village hall.
