City Council Eyes Parking Fee Hikes in Portsmouth

Portsmouth city leaders weigh raising meter from 50 to 75 cents per hour and garage rates, expanding meter hours to 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays, noon to 7 p.m. Sundays, and increasing violations to 15 dollars to cover a financial shortfall tied to donor-town education funding. Councilors debate impact on downtown needs and potential budget cuts, with proposals to trim city budgets by up to 1.25 million while keeping tax rates lower under different options.
