There’s obviously a dearth of public restrooms in Plattsburgh. Instead of trying to fix the problem, the city tries to make money off of its mismanagement. Here’s a solution: If they can’t afford to build new restrooms, pay off hostile private establishments to accept walk-ins. I think its perfectly reasonable for the public to expect public lavatories.

If New York city is not getting enough of a share, they could always stop enforcing it and then noone benefits from this natural process.
