HST is to blame for an increase of the parking rate at the College of New Caledonia beginning Sept. 1.
The daily meter rate will go up by a quarter.
Monthly rates for students and employees are $35+HST or $39.20. Monthly passes are valid 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Monthly passes are available at a discounted rate of $32+HST or $35.85 if ordered online at www.cnc.bc.ca Short term meter rate is 25 cents per hour.
"We encourage students to give themselves a few extra minutes for parking on the first day of school, Sept. 7," said Randall Heidt, CNC communications manager. "We have created a new parking lot located next to residence, which makes up for the spots lost during the construction of the TEC building."
Parking at CNC is operated by Impark, which offers free help to its customers with flat tires, dead batteries or keys locked in vehicles. Call 1-877-771-PETE (7383) for free help.
