#1 Have tow trucks start hovering around at prayer time and see what happens. Maybe a Sky Crane helicopter or two with electromagnets, just for dramatic effect. They can set the taxis down on the roof of the Islamic Cultural Center so they are out of the way.

#2 Just tell the Occupiers that's their new winter housing. The media's heads will explode since they can't complain about either group.

#6 Start putting boots on the cars. A day of losing pay would convince most people not to park illegally.

#7 This is a high risk maneuver, because hack licenses (medallions) start at about $700,000 each, are heavily regulated and can be revoked easily, and there is a big backlog of those waiting in line to get them.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with honest work of this sort, which has been the entree to life in America for many immigrants whose educations and status back home were higher than those jobs suggest.
