SAN FRANCISCO – Drivers in San Francisco may soon face extended hours at parking meters across the city. While one shop owner fears driving customers away, transportation officials argue it will do the opposite.

Parking meters line the street outside of Macchiarini Creative Design in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood, where longtime resident, Daniel Macchiarini, makes his living.

Macchiarini's family has been in business in the city since the 1940's. He has a vested interest in his neighborhood and in San Francisco, which is why he says he's concerned about the SFMTA's proposed plan to extend parking meter hours across the city to 10:00 p.m., and on Sundays from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
