Alien takeover?

Dear Editor:

RE: ‘Parking problem,’ Jan. 4.

This letter is to confirm that indeed aliens have landed and taken control of councillors everywhere.

Their intent is to make Centre Wellington uninhabitable to humans. They apparently move around by levitation or skateboard, weather permitting, and don’t require parking spaces at all.

Part of their plot is to “beautify” everything, which usually means railings and flower beds, skateboard lanes etc. – in fact, anything we don’t really need.

Humans will be saddled with the tax bills or maybe fly off into orbit trying to navigate an infernal round-a-bout, which we also don’t need. What is required is a “down to Earth” approach that does not target us taxpaying earthlings trying to go about our business and park somewhere, without the need for survival gear and tin foil in our hats.
