CHAMPAIGN – Starting in mid-January, parking meter rates in the core of downtown will triple, going to 75 cents per hour, up from the current 25 cents.
The city council voted 7-0 Tuesday night to put in place a package of parking measures that are expected to generate about $500,000 next year and nearly $600,000 in 2009.
