New Orleans City Council members oppose parking meter hikes

New Orleans service workers have criticized the city's plans to increase parking meter rates ? doubling them downtown ? and expanding times as a slight to the service industry. In this week's Gambit cover story, the city's Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB) called it "an attack on the service industry workers who serve us."

Those complaints (which included a petition that gathered more than 1,300 signatures) made their way to the New Orleans City Council, which asked city officials and the Department of Public Works (DPW) why the rate hike is necessary.?
