May 11th was the official "charge for parking" date at Century Square on University - but Northgate is at least making it easier for students and residents.
Looks like meters are getting upgraded - and instead of the hassle of always making sure you have change, you'll be able to pay with the swipe of your phone - something similar to Apple pay.
With the rent for Northgate increasing - it looks like the freebie parking will be going away.
