>”Wondering if you could post up something about this as it supposedly went into effect on Saturday. I saw an updated sign reflecting the new 10-6 enforcement hours on Broad St. but the meters were still labelled as 25c/hr and were operating as such. Curious to see if the changes have taken effect anywhere else in town? My concern going forward isn’t so much the cost of the increase, just the logistics of all the coin management. Do you know if a card type system is in the works?
Thanks.

This has come up several times and despite wide acceptance there seems to be a lot of resistance to using better parking machines in Ridgewood and given the comments we received we suspect there is some ulterior motive for keeping them out.
the comments seem to be more than just ignorance lies and stupidity

From my understanding Ridgewood has some parking issues. Well I propose instead of placing ugly parking meters on residential blocks close to downtown that we place a ticket machine
at the ends of each block.
Why build a parking deck when you have space already?
