Commission Proposes Fee Increases at New Canaan Parking Lots

The New Canaan Parking Commission unanimously voted to recommend increasing annual permit fees at town-owned parking lots by various amounts, according to a report in the New Canaanite news website.

Most of the fee increases were 2.8 percent or 3 percent, but the Center School lot (the least expensive in town, at $120) was raised the most, by 10 percent. (See second illustration for a table of the fees and proposed increases.)

Fees for the Locust Lot were left unchanged because Parking Commission members were unsure about how employee parking would be handled when Town Hall is reoccupied this year after renovation work. The commission met on March 12.

The Board of Selectmen will make the final decision on parking permit fees.
