    As a 13-year resident of Park City and current Main Street employee, I am appalled at the lack of consideration the city has for its residents and employees who are the backbone of the city’s tourism industry. I am specifically frustrated with the issues of parking availability and enforcement. Enforcers seem to disproportionately target lots where employees park as opposed to those where tourists/visitors are parking, and there is no free parking area for nighttime Main Street employees unless they intend to walk in the dark (which I personally am not comfortable with due to prior experiences walking to and from the Sandridge Lots). While I understand that the city has permits and shuttles available, it seems completely unnecessary to force valued employees to “jump through hoops” just to park where they work. I personally find myself feeling less and less valued by the city every day in comparison with the tourists and second-home owners, which contributes greatly to my desire to live and work somewhere else.
