Mayor Burke STEALS idea from Breanna Lungo-Koehn

Medford Information Central has pounced on Muccini-Burke for LYING to the public when she PROMISED free parking for seniors in 2015 and then charged seniors when she got into office.


Friend --
At the Mayoral Forum at City Hall on Thursday, October 17th, I stated "As to parking enforcement, it is broken. If elected I will end the contract which expires in the next mayoral term. I will bring enforcement in house and replace the kiosks with meters. I will provide our seniors with free parking."

The Mayor announced today that the city will allow free parking to seniors and people with disabilities. Thank you to the Mayor for taking my idea and running with it. Everyone benefits.

Below is the press release issued by the mayor yesterday.

Mayor Stephanie Muccini Burke Introduces Free Residential Parking Permits for Seniors and People with Disabilities
Mayor Stephanie Muccini Burke is pleased to announce that residential parking permits are now free for seniors ages 65 and over, and that vehicles that display a handicap placard do not need to purchase a residential permit.
Seniors 65+

Free residential permits must be obtained in person at ParkMedford, located at 557B Main Street. Seniors must show a valid Massachusetts driver’s license as well as their vehicle registration reflecting the street for which you require a permit. Two free visitor passes will be provided upon request. Seniors who do not have a vehicle may still get two free visitor passes.

Many positive things are coming out of this election but we need to change the culture of reactivity in city hall.  We need a mayor with a plan and a vision to execute proactively, with transparency and community engagement.
We need you to get all your friends and family out to vote Breanna Lungo-Koehn for Mayor on November 5th.
Thank You
Breanna
