This discussion is consistent with the logic that out-of-town visitors are "foreigners" who are going to drop their cash into the city coffers. After alll, taxing them in the hotel rooms is not affecting the local residents! State grants are outside money, having nothing to do with Lancastrians! Etc.
If one expects to cash in on out-of-towners, one must expect congested streets and battles for parking.
I will continue to note that Lancaster was never configured to support the traffic required to meet the expectations of the business of the Convention Center.
Let the nightmares begin.
