City Parking Rate Proposal Amended By Council
The Athens Ohio city council revised downtown parking charges on Monday. Court Street and Washington Street meters will stay at ten cents per hour with a two hour limit, while other meters retain a dime base with varied rates and fines. The move aims to shift all day parkers to off street lots and triggers a three reading process likely by mid September. A downtown sidewalk and street project may proceed with a contractor ready to negotiate, potentially finishing half the Court Street sidewalk work by mid September.
