A small group of local residents and business supporters is doing what the City of Fernandina Beach clearly hopes they won’t: pushing back.

As the city continues to stall and drag out the paid-parking fight, the financial pressure is shifting away from government and onto everyday citizens. Legal fees add up quickly, and delay is a powerful tactic when one side has taxpayer dollars and the other has bake-sale budgets. That’s not an accident.

The people fighting paid parking aren’t doing this for themselves — they’re doing it for local businesses, residents, visitors, and the character of downtown Fernandina Beach. Every dollar donated helps level the playing field and keeps this fight alive. Quite frankly, contributing to stop paid parking is a better investment than paying the city every time you park your car.

If you oppose paid parking, this is the moment to act. Every dollar matters. Every voice counts. Supporting those who are willing to stand up now helps protect everyone later.  Use this code to help defray the costs of fighting city hall.
