City of
San Diego Parking Meter District Program
The Parking Meter District Program was established
in 1997 and there are currently three designated parking meter districts
in the City. The program distributes a portion of the parking meter
revenue to the designated districts and the funds may be used for
parking lots, parking structures, valet parking, signage, landscaping,
maintenance, and security. The three designated districts are in the
downtown, Uptown, and Mid-City communities. The districts have been
able to set aside 45 percent of parking revenues to be used in for
parking solutions in their respective districts. The El Cajon Boulevard
BID serves as the fiscal agent and administrator for the MidCity Parking
Meter District.

Existing
Conditions
The Mid-City area suffers not so much from the lack
of parking, but from a host of challenges - including the perceived
lack of parking - that have kept its commercial districts from realizing
their full potential. As a result, many of the District activities
are intended to work in tandem with other economic development activities.
These efforts include providing shuttles to entertainment areas ad
special events, enhancing transit facilities and initiating parking
management strategies to better utilize existing parking stock.
