Wellington/Richmond Pay Parking

Q96: Before the end of 2016, will paid parking be introduced on Richmond Road/Wellington Street West in Ottawa?
Yes: 30%

There has been a proposal by the local city councillor, Jeff Leiper, to introduce paid parking on Richmond Road/Wellington Street West.  Consultations will take place in May, and paid parking might be introduced by the end of the year.  The individuals quoted in the article don't seem to have strong opinions either way.  Most members of the public are probably opposed.  Given all of that, I have the sense that paid parking probably won't be introduced, at least not before the end of 2016.
