The city of Stevens Point, Wisconsin has decided to install parking kiosks near the university and downtown, according to The Pointer at the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point campus. The kiosks will eliminate most of the free parking in those areas.
After a third party research team conducted a parking study, the city voted to fund the installation of 14 kiosks servicing 25 parking spots.
Drivers will have the option to pay with cash or by using a smartphone app.
The kiosks are expected to be installed over the summer of 2017. The profit generated will be primarily used to help repair roads.
