The Treasurer's Office would greatly appreciate your participation in a brief Survey on Parking available HERE.

Update (11/19/13):  The Presentation from the recent City of St. Louis Treasurer's Office Town Halls is available HERE. 

The City of St. Louis Treasurer's Office will host four town halls dedicated to the current and future state of parking in St. Louis.  The Treasurer's Office issued an RFP for parking meter management and processing on October 4 in efforts to modernize operations. "We promised the citizens of St. Louis that all existing contracts would be reviewed and examined for their operational and financial efficiency. This is another step we're taking to propel the office from the 19th Century to the 21st Century," said Treasurer Tishaura Jones.

The town halls will provide more information on the RFP selection process and opportunities for citizens to provide feedback on the direction of parking in St. Louis. The RFP selection will consist of two phases. During the first phase a review committee will rank and score the proposals based upon the evaluation criteria. The Treasurer's Office will select a limited number of vendors to proceed to the second phase which requires vendors to perform a six (6) month on-street field test evaluation of their equipment before a final selection is made. The field test will include installing parking equipment on both sides of one or more contiguous city blocks. Based upon the results of the trial and citizen feedback, the Treasurer's Office may decide to proceed with an offer to one or more companies to furnish and potentially install units on a long-term basis throughout the City.

The town halls will take at the following locations:

Central Library, 1301 Olive St.

Tuesday, October 29, 6:00pm-7:00pm

Carondelet Park Recreation Complex, 930 Holly Hills Ave.

Wednesday, November 6, 6:00pm-7:00pm

Thursday, November 7, 6:00pm-7:00pm
