(Pottawattamie Co) The Pottawattamie County Board of Supervisors this morning discussed the courthouse parking lot reconstruction project and whether to have pay-to-park or free parking.
A pay-to-park lot would be enclosed with a fence. The free parking option would open up the parking lot. However, there are concerns about people parking in the lot for a long period of time and how that would be patrolled.
Jason Slack, Director of Buildings and Grounds, said he likes the free parking option because it would be a lot easier for maintenance.
Slack said they could still do the pay-for-parking option with an arm and kiosk, but have the parking be free.
The Supervisors held a lengthy discussion, but they took no action today on the free parking or pay-to-park option so they can gather more information.
