ON-STREET PARKING
On-street parking directly competes with off-street parking ramps and lots on the basis of location and price. It
is not uncommon for municipalities to price on-street parking according to perceived economic thresholds in
the community, rather than on the basis of value. When parking is priced base on value, the most convenient
parking located in closest proximity to demand is priced higher than the other parking alternatives. This on-
street pricing strategy encourages parking turnover in the areas of downtown that experience the greatest
levels of demand. Below is the current on-street parking rate schedule in comparison to transient parking rates
in the public ramps and lots for the some duration.

• Note:Rates presented on a cost per hour basis,unless noted otherwise.
The on-street meter parking rates are priced lower than most of the off-street parking ramps, but compare
favorably to the rates charged at the city-owned parking lots. It is Walker's professional opinion that a series
of gradual rate increases could occur considering the current positioning of meter rates in comparison to off-
street alternatives.
Walker recommends that the City consider implementing the following rate plan for on-street meters:
