Mayor Lovely Warren and the City of Rochester announced Tuesday they will not extend parking hours from 8am – 6pm to 8am – 8pm.
BUT, you will have to pay 50 cents more for the hourly parking rate. So the daytime hourly rate will go from $1.50 to $2.00 per hour for parking in downtown.
The increase in the hourly rate is one of the ways the city intendeds to fill the budget gap.
