SacPark meters (tiered rate structure)
Activation of each tier is determined by the zone type. The hour designated on the sign reflects how many hours a motorist may park at the Tier 1 price before the Tier 2 rate is effective.
This is an optional tier-based rate structure for motorists who may unexpectedly need to park longer than the posted number of hours. The meter will reflect the pricing structure and will calculate the payment needed. So enjoy that great conversation, don't stress about long business meetings or stay for that dessert!
Extensions of parking time may be done at the meter or remotely using the Parkmobile app. At this time, the ability to extend time via mobile app requires that the initial payment was done using the app. Initial payments of coin or credit card will require extension to be paid at the meter.
