The meters won’t break the bank: They’re $1.25 an hour, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., except for Sundays, which, thankfully, will remain off the books
Installation of parking meters recently began in San Diego's Pacific Beach community, part of a pilot program rolled out in the neighborhood's business-heavy center.The meters will be springing up on Garnet Ave from Fanuel down to Mission Boulevard, as well as on the western edge of Hornblend Street and some nearby sections of the cross streets Cass and Bayard.
"It's in our core business district so as to not disrupt the residential areas," said Sunny Lee, who is the executive director of Discover Pacific Beach, which is the designated advisory board for the Pacific Beach Community Parking District."So you're not going to see parking meters in places where it's primarily housing. You're only going to see it where it's primarily businesses.
"We want it to be easier to travel around and park and be in PB, and then, yeah, we want the turnover for the businesses to be successful and for people to use those parking spaces as they're intended," Lee said.
