Victoria council directed staff to look into expanding the hours of paid parking downtown to be in effect from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
RELATED:Coun. Chris Coleman was one of two who voted against the motion, and he says his reasons were the increased hours for parkades as well and he worries the longer paid hours will discourage people from coming downtown.
Jeff Bray, CEO of the Downtown Victoria Business Association, says he is happy to see the fees going towards supporting downtown businesses, though he knows the public may not be happy to see the paid parking hours increased. Todd Litman, executive director of the Victoria Transport Policy Institute, says increasing the time that pay parking is in effect is a good policy.
