Overview

• The City Council voted 10-0 to raise on-street meter rates citywide from $1 to $1.50, marking the first increase in more than a decade.
• LADOT must extend meter operations to midnight in high-activity nightlife areas and to 8 p.m. elsewhere, with case-by-case exceptions.
• Sunday meter enforcement will be added across the city, with implementation expected to take up to six months.
• Twenty-eight municipal lots previously free will begin charging 25 cents per 30 minutes with a $5 daily maximum.
• Officials project $14.4 million in new meter revenue for FY 2025–26 plus at least $1.7 million from paid lots, while the package also sets five-year CPI-tied reviews, a 90-day report on preferential parking permit fees, and exploration of penalties for trash bins blocking streets or sidewalks.
