>Under a plan discussed during their April 22nd Work Session, Village Council members may soon introduce an ordinance that would increase metered parking rates from 25 cents to 50 cents per hour.
Coincident with the proposed rate increase, the time period during which metered rates are in effect would change to 10AM – 6PM Monday through Saturday (excluding train station parking lot meters). Currently, metered rates are in effect from 9AM – 8PM Monday through Saturday (excluding train station parking lot meters).
Village Manager James Ten Hoeve advised Council members that the proposed fees were in line with those currently being charged by communities such as Westfield, Milburn, Montclair, and Summit.
