The South Lake Tahoe City Council recently voted to offer reduced parking tickets to businesses in the Heavenly Village in order to get more of them on board with offering validation to their customers.
Businesses can now pay one dollar for an hour of validation. The movie theater pays $.35 per hour for their tickets. They previously offered free validation to movie goers for four hours of parking but that will now be reduced to three hours.
The city is looking for ways to advertise participating businesses on signage in the city owned garage.
Any businesses in the village can visit the parking garage office and purchase the $1 tickets. They are available in books of 50.
