D.C. Council Says No to $3-an-Hour Parking Rates
(Washington Examiner) — The District would extend the city’s sales tax to include sodas and medical marijuana but would not increase downtown parking meter fees to $3 an hour, according to a draft budget from D.C. Council Chairman Vincent Gray. The D.C. Council is expected to give preliminary approval to the budget Wednesday. Gray’s draft budget is the product of informal meetings with the council last week to come to general agreements on some of the thornier issues.
