The Mid-City Community Parking District is on pause. The City of San Diego has decided to pause Council Policy 100-18 as they deal with their budget shortfall. We will still be working with the City to make sure all meter revenue collected in Mid-City is used in Mid-City.
Since 1998, the group has been working to increase parking options, creates safe and friendly streets, increase pedestrian activity, advance alternative transportation options and promote economic revitalization. We foster community cooperation through creative collaborations that enhance the vitality of our businesses, sustain the health of our residential community, and promote a model cohesive neighborhood.
BACKGROUND
The Parking Meter District Program was established in 1997 and there are currently three designated parking meter districts in the City. The program distributes a portion of the parking meter revenue to the designated districts and the funds may be used for parking lots, parking structures, valet parking, signage, landscaping, maintenance, and security. The three designated districts are in the downtown, Uptown, and Mid-City communities. The districts have been able to set aside 45 percent of parking revenues to be used on parking solutions in their respective districts. The El Cajon Boulevard BID serves as the fiscal agent and administrator for the Mid-City Parking Meter District.
