Parking Program

Our Mission:
Working in partnership with the community, we are committed to providing equitable and high-quality parking services to the citizens, visitors, and businesses in the City of San Luis Obispo.

EFFECTIVE MARCH 15, 2010

Parking Services is currently out of Meter Cash Keys.  If you currently have a Meter Cash Key and need it replaced or refilled you may do so.  Our distributor assures us our backorder of keys will be shipped no later than July 2010.  NO NEW METER CASH KEY SALES will be done at this time.  We regret the inconvenience this may cause and hope to have the keys available again in the near future.
