LETTER: Free parking for locals at new A’s stadium

Did anyone else notice that the beautiful renderings of the proposed new $1.5 billion stadium for the A’s show no parking accommodations on site? They’ll get $380 million in public funding and no parking for fans? Free land. Plenty of $40 parking spots at nearby hotels, right?
