Dear Renter:
Effective October 1 2013, the rent for your parking space will go up $75 a month. However, our parking lot is still not the most expensive in town.
Many of you have asked us to provide better snow and ice removal and to post signs saying that all spaces are rented so that a car can be towed if it parks in your space. Signs will be posted by October 10, and if we get any more snow, Acme Company has contracted to have the lot cleared by 7 a.m.

Sincerely
