RATE AT 2-HOUR METERS DOWNTOWN GOING UP BY 25 CENTS
The cost of parking at a two-hour meter downtown will increase from $1 per hour to $1.25 per hour.
As part of the fiscal year 2010 budget, the City Council authorized an increase to the two-hour parking rate. The rate increase is designed to improve parking turns, leading to better parking space use. The increase is expected to boost meter revenue by about $200,000.00 annually. The new rate becomes effective at each meter once a technician has recalibrated it. All recalibrations will be complete by Oct. 22.
Motorists are charged to park at meters from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. After 6 p.m. weekdays and all day Saturday and Sunday are free. Some holidays are free too.
