Hartford s City Council Monday night punted on a measure that would significantly hike fees on downtown parking-lot operators after major downtown investors including Alan Lazowksi and Shelbourne Global Solutions LLC came out against the measure.
At a meeting Monday night City Councilors voted to send back to the Planning, Economic Development and Housing Committee a proposed ordinance that would have increased the biennial permit fees the city charges downtown parking-lot operators from a maximum of $1,000 per parking lot to as much as $28,900 or more, depending on the number of spaces in a particular lot.
The new higher fees would then double in 2025, and double again in 2030.
