An LA-area Assemblyman wants to give people looking for a parking spot on city streets a helping hand.
Democrat Mike Gatto has penned the Parking Bill of Rights, a package of reforms designed to help drivers who park on the street. One of them requiring smart meters with rates based on demand, not times of the day, a move that could cost parking ticket revenue:
“I think a lot of city governments will be upset that there’s a loss of revenue.”
Gatto told NBC 4 News the state needs to remind local governments parking should be an efficient practice, and not another big hassle designed to separate motorists from their money. Tom Perumean, KABC NEWS.
