As retired I liked stopping speding money in towns. But now that make parking impossible. Fueling made hard. Would think small town would love to sell 100 gal of fuel. Steak dinner shower room. But towns making it impossible to get off main road. Colo one of worst. Oh yes colo almost suburb of calf.

Require all warehouses to provide one parking spot for each 2 delivery/ day for overnight parking and 30% of those spots have 20 Amp 110 volt plug with bathrooms and a TV room and wi fi if they get more than 10 delivery or pickup/ day
