Hello, I've been a new resident in downtown Hartford since September 2016 and I feel there is very little flexibility or appreciation for residents in the area. It seems like there are more young people moving into the area and I think it's important for the City of Hartford to be accommodating and helpful. One thing I think is important is the issue of parking. It seems like the areas around the XL center are always blocked off or have no parking signs. The events seem to prevent residents from parking near the apartment buildings they live in. Another incident this weekend was when I parked next to the G Fox Building, the day before an event was going on. The valet service takes up the whole street and makes it uncomfortable to walk past. Because my car was parked on that specific street the valet service called the police, who came to my apartment, banging on my door, asking me to move the car, which I did immediately. I felt as a resident very inconvenienced and undervalued. I think the main point I want to talk about is the consideration of residents and our value we bring to the city because there are more of us moving in.
