So when you get a parking fine the Council is trying to drive motor cars off the road, as is the Parking Meter, is that what you mean.??
Who the **** do you think is going to pay to provide and maintain the facilities you use.
I may be misinterpreting your point, but at Bankstown I have to pay around $4k per year for the privilege of using the runways and parking on the open grass. (awright, they do mow the grass every now and then).
It's a monopoly situation at Bankstown and by gradually making conditions too expensive for GA the owners can redevelop that land for commercial and possibly residential use.
Seems that Jandokot has a more enlightened set of owners than does Bankstown.
