“It’s not my duty as mayor to make sure you have a parking spot,” he said at a 2020 conference. “For me, it’s the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you’re going to put them.”

I recently bought a grand piano. I demand municipality to provide me the space for it!

@TheWarOnCars true less cars but not greener. It’s still all concrete and stone.
@TheWarOnCars This is an amazing story with some beautiful pictures! I want to visit Pontevedra!
@TheWarOnCars Car owners should pay gentrified rents on the existence of parking spaces.
@TheWarOnCars cool. This was also recently said by the former mayor of Cádiz, José María González "Kichi". "It's like you buy a piano and you don't know where to put it".

It's also not a city's concern to get them home to the burbs quickly.
