City of Reno has finished construction and improvements at the downtown parking garage. New gates were added, and will be in operation starting today. Parking is free for City of Reno employees and people doing business or attending meetings at City Hall, but visitors will have to get their tickets validated on the first or second floor of City Hall, to park for free. Everyone else will be charged a $1 per hour to park, with a $24 lost-ticket maximum charge. You can pay for parking using a kiosk on the ground level of the garage with cash and Visa or MasterCard, or at the exit gate using Visa or MasterCard only.
