Daily Dose of BS Aug 27 parade

Would you pay 35 bucks to reserve a prime parade viewing spot?  The city of La Crosse is considering a new and different approach to the squatting problem along the Mapleleaf Parade route.  Up to 55 prime parade watching spots could be available for “rent” for the parade.   The city is thinking of issuing $35 street privilege permits to keep people off the streets till the parade starts.  I think this is ridiculous, isn’t this just another tax?  My goodness we already have hoops to jump through in order to watch the parade from a prime spot by having someone stake out the area starting at midnight, now we have to pay for the “privilege” of doing it, no thank you.  Unless this is how they are going to let the parade go on without fees to Oktoberfest.
