WHITEFISH-Th and final
reading of new ordinance to es-
tablish parking meters in White
fish downtown streets is scheduled
at the June meeting of the White
fish city council.
Proposal is that there will not
be an initial cost for installing the
meters. The anticipated $4,000
yearly income from 200 meters
would be split. Half would go to
the meter dealer until the meters
are paid for, and the other $4,000
to the city.
Major purpose of the Whitefish
council favoring meters is to raise
funds for street repairs, and also
relieve the congested downtown
parking situation.
