YOUR PARKING
OPTIONS EXPLAINED
IN THE PARKING RATE STUDY LED BY DIXON CONSULTING,
THREE OPTIONS WERE GIVEN:
• OPTION A: KEEP CURRENT RATES AND BENEFITS AND
ELIMINATE FREE SUNDAYS
• OPTION B: LOWER PARKING RATES SIGNIFICANTLY ACROSS THE
BOARD, WHICH MEANS ELIMINATING THE FIRST FREE HOUR AND
FREE SUNDAY PARKING.
• OPTION C: A COMPROMISE, WITH REDUCED RATES BUT NOT AS MUCH
AS OPTION B.
WHY WE RECOMMEND OPTION B:
AFTER CAREFUL CONSIDERATION, WE'RE ADVOCATING FOR OPTION B.
THIS OPTION OFFERS THE LOWEST POSSIBLE RATES,
INCREASING OVERALL AFFORDABILITY AND ACCESSIBILITY FOR LONGER VISITS.
ALTHOUGH IT REMOVES FREE HOURS AND DAYS, THE SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER
DAILY RATE, MAKE FREQUENT AND EXTENDED VISITS MORE FEASIBLE FOR
