The city of New Rochelle was to make parking changes today on the downtown street meters and in some downtown lots.The changes were that the meters in the certain lots would increase 100% from 50 to a $1 a hour and the meters on the street would be extended to 12:00am.
Well as of 3:30am Tuesday morning no signs were changed no meters changed no lots changed.
I wonder what happened. Will this loss of revenue effect the budget will Firefighters,Crossing Guards and Dpw workers get threatened that there jobs be cut.Because the city has no money.
Or maybe the city will hire someone else at a salary of $100,000 to tell us that we need retail in our city.
Again this city has failed to notify downtown business owners of the change to the parking rules as they said they would.
Let's wait and see what the city has to say about this one.I would love to hear from the people who read this site.
