The food service industry workers of Downtown Roanoke help invite locals and visitors alike to explore our city by providing a fun and welcoming place to come meet, eat, drink and shop. Most of us work many hours and must pay to park sometimes more than once which can cost anywhere from $6-$12 a day, $20 parking fines or countless hours doing the cha cha slide with the parking interceptors. We should be provided with more accessible parking because we spend our time and money downtown sustaining a cultured community.
