CHILLICOTHE With the installation of bright green signs in downtown Chillicothe comes the return of paid parking.
The city plans to resume parking enforcement downtown in May or early June, but motorists can expect to see warnings written as early as Tuesday. Downtown parking will be enforced through a new mobile app or refurbished meters that take coins. We believe [paid parking] will create better traffic flow in downtown and keep the momentum going, said Chillicothe-Ross Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Mike Throne. The chamber is helping the city promote the change because they believe it will help more people utilize services and businesses offered in the historic district.
