TOP STORY:
On the heels of the big changes to parking meter rates near Petco Park, more changes could be coming to a parking lot at another major local attraction -- the San Diego Zoo.
It is currently free to park in the Zoo-owned lot at Balboa Park, but a recent change to the lease agreement between the City of San Diego and the Zoo will allow the Zoo to implement paid parking.
That lease has been in effect since 1979.
Earlier this summer, the city approved a plan to begin charging drivers to park at Balboa Park; including the Zoo-owned lot, city officials believe paid parking at Balboa Park will generate an additional $3 million.
At a City Council meeting on Monday, councilmembers will consider whether to authorize the updated lease agreement.
