They also voted to change the signage in all 3 areas to add more clarity for the user. Although these changes might take 4-6 weeks to implement - you can expect them promptly. We will most a new map reflecting these rate changes when the change is officially made and new signage is installed.

Hi Katrina, thanks for correction. FYI, Irving will be going to 2 hours free in the next few weeks. We'll post a new map when this update is official.

My partner was Downtown for an hour long appointment earlier today. She then left the downtown area to run errands and came back later to have tea with her mother at the tea shop for just under an hour. She walked out and saw a warning on her vehicle for being parked downtown for almost 2 hours. When she went into the Diamond Parking Office to discuss the matter, she was told even though she left the downtown area, she came back and parked and it wasn't 750 feet away from her previous parking spot. This was disappointing news, as there is no way to know that this is the distance of enforcement when you're parking.
