So confusing...In Rome you can buy a monthly pass which entitles you to park in any municipal parking spot (not barrier-free/Handicapped spots)for 24 hours at a time. There is no guarantee that a spot will be available. It kind of makes sense, pay one fee, no more worries about tickets, meters running out and when your "time" is up.<br />
This would require less enforcement than the present system and may actually increase revenue because people are paying based on need, not on use, so they could issue more permits than parking spots.<br />
The fee is, about $100/month, but heck, here in good old TO I'd pay $200 just for the peace of mind.</p>
