It’s pilot season! No, that doesn’t mean that we’ll all be drowning in piles of scripts for television programs thrown over our transoms, rather it means that there are four different parking meter programs going on right now in multiple neighborhoods. There’s a new pay-by-phone option available in Dupont, Foggy Bottom and Navy Yard, which allows you to call in with a space number and pay via your cellphone and a credit card. There are new multispace meters on U Street, in Friendship Heights, and on the south side of the Mall. Confused yet? Yeah, me too. But if you see new meters, pay close attention and don’t just not pay. Several of these new zones have “enhanced enforcement,” which I picture is done with RPGs. Be wary.
I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
