Parking Deal Targets Sports Center Users
Pay just $1 for parking next time you visit the Monterey Sports Center. Parking cards are now available for the adjacent East Custom House Garage. The fee is $1 per entrance, with no time limit. Because parking at the Sports Center was reduced to make way for the expansion, the City developed a special parking program. Previously, users who parked in the Sports Center lot paid 50 cents an hour for the two-hour meters. The new cards are pre-programmed for one, five or ten uses and are on sale at the Sports Center. For more info, call the Monterey Sports Center at 831.646.3730 or visit www.monterey.org/sportscenter, or visit City parking for further info.
