SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – The hourly rates for parking lots in downtown Santa Barbara will increase beginning Friday. The increase is an attempt to combat the rising costs of performing parking-related services and capital improvement projects.

The hourly rate for parking in public lots will increase from $1.50 to $2.50 starting Friday. Parkers will continue to receive the free 75-minute parking that already exists in city lots, according to Sarah Clark, downtown plaza and parking manager.

The new fees will ensure that downtown parking lots stay safe and clean and offer the level of service that Santa Barbara is known for, Clark said.

The city offers monthly permit options for residents and people who work in the downtown area. Click here to learn more about permit options.
