Uh-oh! Looks like you might have to bring extra change with you very soon.

Both meters downtown and throughout the city will be seeing an increase in parking rates. The meters around town will be DOUBLING from 25 cents an hour to 50 cents an hour. Street parking downtown will also cost you dearly, raising itself by 25 cents as well. This will bring your grand total up to $1.75 per hour.

If you park in a parking ramp owned by the city you will not have to worry though. Rates will stay at $1-$2 per half hour depending on where you park.

This would bring our parking to one of the most expensive places in the state. Sheesh.
