Motorists will pay an extra 50 cents an hour to park at a street meter in Downtown beginning Tuesday, July 5, it has been announced.
The price will go from 75 cents an hour to $1.25 an hour, under a change Richmond City Council approved in passing a new budget in May.
The increase, recommended by Mayor Dwight C. Jones, is designed to increase revenue to balance the budget.
