It looks as though the rates for parking in several of Echo Park’s public lots will be decreased in the near future. According to The Eastsider LA:

The following lots will be affected:

Lot 643: 1147 Echo Park Ave., Echo Park, CA 90026
Lot 662: 1152 Lemoyne St., Echo Park, CA 90026
Lot 663: 1146 Logan St., Echo Park, CA 90026
Lot 676: 1146 Glendale Blvd., Echo Park, CA 90026
Lot 679: 1711 Sunset Blvd., Echo Park, CA 90026

The rates will be decreased from $1.00/hr to $0.25/30 min; and the daily maximum rate will be decreased from $4.00 to $2.50 for 10 hours, with the exception of Lot 643. Lot 643 will have a maximum rate of $1.00 for 2 hours.

Sweet! Maybe now we’ll see fewer FAIL-ed meters! Honestly, I’d rather just put a quarter in the damn thing and not have to worry about getting a ticket.
