Fees for city parking will begin at $50 for 15 minutes and there will be special rates for public transportation, according to Director of Smart City Solutions (SCS) Ifa Cush, who is rejecting findings by government reviews that the parking meter contract with City Hall heavily favours his firm.
Cush announced the planned rates on Thursday night during a poorly-attended public consultation at the National Library on City Hall’s planned installation of the parking meters.
A rate of $125 per 15-minute rotation had initially been announced but was swiftly recanted after generating significant criticism.
