AVOID FREE STANDING ERs

Free standing ERs are one of the worst things possible for local communities. They’re based on deceptive billing practices that leave regular families struggling to cover their medical costs. A treatment for strep that would cost you $35-$50 Out-of-Pocket at one of the numerous urgent care clinics throughout Parker would cost you $1,200-$1,700 at a Free Stansing ER Out-of-Pocket. Why? Because insurance companies won’t accept them? Why not? Because they don’t want to pay $1,200-$1,700 for the same services offered through an urgent care of regular doctor for a fraction of the costs. Free standing ERs are responsible for Texas having the highest out-of-pocket healthcare costs in the ENTIRE COUNTRY!

Pedestrian - only Main street transformation

Similat to Fort collins, Boulder, etc. make Main between Pine and the park a pedestrian-only area. Divert traffic and allow residents and visitors to stroll, shop, and enjoy the town - they will spend more and stay longer

More ground level retail and dining in the heart of downtown. It's a shame you can't dine anywhere under the fancy new lighting.

Require Xeriscaping in New Home Developments and business areas

With all of the development going on, I am wondering where all of the water is going to come from. Colorado is high desert, and we get less than 14" of precipitation per year. All of this bright green grass makes it seem as if we have no knowledge of, or worse, aren't concerned with water sustainability. There is no need for lawns that require watering to be put in places where people are not even walking. We need water to drink and for future generations. We must be more cognizant and responsible with our resources.

Invest in a pair of automated van's that just run up and down Mainstreet to the Light Rail station in Ridgegate

I bet more folks would visit Parker to walk our mainstreet and indulge if those vans ran every 20 minutes from 6:30am to midnight or so.
