Knoxville, TN (WOKI) Free parking on nights and weekends in downtown Knoxville is here to stay.
The announcement coming from City of Knoxville officials Monday night though additional details about the City’s “updated parking plan” have not been released.
In May, the city released a report from Walker, a group hired to evaluate Knoxville’s current parking situation. In that report, Walker suggested charging for parking seven days a week, among other changes.
That study prompted a response from downtown Knoxville business owners, who circulated a survey asking people to defend the city’s current free parking rules.
A City Council workshop is slated for Thursday at 4:00 p.m. at the City County Building on Main Street where more discussion of the parking plan is expected.
