Workers are installing parking meters along the 1000 & 1100 blocks of Washington Avenue today.

When I first reported the change to allow parking on these blocks last month I mentioned more high tech parking payments system, speculating that was planned for these blocks. Sadly, parking czar Larry Williams stuck the the old technology.

    Is parking allowed between 4:30 and 5:30 on weekdays now that there are meters?

    It wasn’t allowed before the meters, but cars were parked there anyway. And the valet spots were blocked off.

    This wouldn’t be a problem, except the traffic lights are so poorly timed that traffic backs up from 10th to Tucker sometimes.

    With the new technology there would be the need for fewer patronage employees….the city looses one more time.
