Rates are being increased at the Green Street Garage for two reasons:
1. To provide additional spaces for people who need short- to medium-term parking in the Central Square area for business meetings, visiting local residents, shopping, or eating. To accomplish this goal and discourage all-day parking, the daily parking rate will now have a maximum of $20.00 for those who stay for 9-12 hours, with an additional $2.00 charge for those who stay 12 hours or more.
2. To provide increased funding to support garage maintenance and offset increased operating costs.
Hourly rates at the Green Street Parking Garage have not changed since March 2009, and no changes are being made to the monthly rate at this time.
Effective July 1, the new daily rates will be:
| 1 Hour or Less: |
$2.00 |
| Over 1 Hour: | $2.00 per hour or fraction thereof. |

Rates are being increased at the First Street Garage so that the rate structure is similar at both City garages and to raise additional revenue for capital maintenance and operations.
