Special Event Parking Information for Merchants
As a result of merchant's concerns about the $20 special event parking rate at the Wallace Parking Deck on home football game days, the Downtown Partnership has asked the Town of Chapel Hill to change the rates to make it more accessible for downtown visitors that want to shop and eat before and during home football games with out having to pay the full special event rate for parking. Map of downtown parking lots. Special event parking rates are only in effect three hours before kickoff and one hour after kickoff. Normal hourly rates are in effect before and after these time periods.
The Town has responded positively to the idea of restructuring the special event parking rates but with short notice for the last home football game of the season, they are not able to reprogram ticket readers in the lots. For tomorrow, Saturday, November 20th - your patrons need only tell the gate attendant at Wallace Parking Deck that they are not parking for the entire game the attendant will charge them the normal hourly rates when they leave. The game has a noon kickoff against NC State...Go Heels!
We will continue to work with the Town to adjust the special event parking rate for next football season. We are proposing that the rates would be $2 for the first hour, and $5/hour up to $20 maximum.
