Topline:
What’s the price change? Parking meters will soon charge $1.50 an hour. That’s a 50-cent hike from the original rate.
New hours : The council’s unanimous decision Friday also means parking meters will now run Sundays, with some exceptions. And parking meters in areas with high late-night activity will operate until midnight. Meters in other locations will run until 8 p.m.
Why the changes? If implemented by January, the new rates and extended hours could potentially bring the city at least $1.7 million for the next fiscal year, according to a city staff report. It's unclear when the changes will take effect.
