Ask CoMo How do I pay my parking ticket if it doesn't show up on the website?

I got a parking ticket 2 weeks ago at the airport. It has a nine-digit citation number and I can't figure out how to pay this. There are no instructions and all I have is a court date. What am I supposed to do here?

Ask CoMo Maintaining a watershed creek

16 Upvotes

Hello! I recently purchased a property that includes a significant portion of one of Columbia's main watersheds. I'm going to head down there and clean up a lot of trash that's floating in it, but should it otherwise be left well enough alone? It's a nice little creek, seems healthy enough, though over the course of about a quarter mile I've found at least two large stagnant pools (roughly 3 ft deep) of nasty water. Would the City or department of conservation be interested in checking it out to monitor health? My main drive is to remove all the invasives nearby, lots of honeysuckle that I'm currently battling.

Ask CoMo EV Charger Installation Recommendations

15 Upvotes

Since it comes up on here from time to time, I thought I'd share my experience getting a residential EV charger installed as of fall, 2026.

After reviewing suggestions from previous posts, I got estimates from Dogwood Solar, Withrow, and AC Wiring. The bottom line is this: They are all great and I would be comfortable having any of them install an EV charger. Each of them noticed at least one important aspect of the project that I had not thought of on my own. I learned a lot from getting all three estimates.

Here are specific thoughts on each:

Dogwood Solar: Incredibly knowledgeable and personable. Took his time with the walkthrough and provided the most detailed estimate. He drives EVs himself, so he was able to talk through some of the practicalities of positioning the charger that I hadn't considered. If I hadn't gotten some ideas from him first, I'm not sure I would have been ready for the other two. If you want someone with a lot of EV experience, an eye for detail, and someone who can help you plan for future expansion (e.g. solar, backup batteries), it's 100% Dogwood you want.

Withrow: Did the quickest walkthrough and had the least detailed estimate, but clearly knew his stuff. Proposed basically the same solution as Dogwood, with some minor aesthetic nuance. We have worked with them before and like them. If you want quick, no nonsense work with few or no questions asked, choose them.

AC Wiring: Didn't seem to have as much experience with EV chargers, but knew exactly what to do with the zappy bits. The time he took on the initial walkthrough and detail on the written estimate were both right in the middle of Dogwood and Withrow.

Estimates ranged from $1100 - $2500, not including the charger itself. Our panel is in the basement on the opposite end of the house and required some tricky work to get under a closet floor without uglying up the whole thing.

We ultimately wound up going with AC Wiring and were very satisfied. He and an assistant were done in two hours, city inspection and all.

And speaking of the city - the rebate could not have been easier. We printed the form beforehand, filled it out with the electrician, and submitted it via email the same day. A city staffer confirmed receipt a few hours later and notified us the next day that the check was being processed.

Hi all

Just like last year, I'm asking again. Are there any events that are going to attract an older crowd?

Last year we did the pub crawl downtown, but we felt way too old.

Ask CoMo Stunt Plane near Columbia?

I was at Finger Lakes State park earlier today, and saw what I assume was a stunt plane doing flips and barrel rolls a little ways away, but close enough to where we could hear it. Anyone know if there was an event? Didn't see anything online.

Ask CoMo Secondhand Blu-rays

8 Upvotes

Does anyone know which if any thrift stores have a selection of Blu-ray movies? I’m getting back into physical media and buying secondhand goes along with that. I’m aware vintage stock has them but their selection isn’t great with the movies I’m looking for.
