Free Neighborhood Parking On Sundays Part Of Chicago Meter Settlement
Chicago motorists will get free neighborhood parking on Sundays, thanks to changes negotiated by Mayor Rahm Emanuel to settle outstanding reimbursement claims for “a lot less” than the $61 million demanded by the company leasing city parking meters.
The free neighborhood parking on Sundays will begin from whenever metered parking expires Saturday night. So if a spot’s metered parking ends at 10 p.m. Saturday, it is free from 10:01 p.m. Saturday until 8 a.m. Monday.
Great news! But with the caveat that it’s offset by later metered parking times the rest of the week — 10pm or even midnight in some places.
