Parking Committee

Mission

The Parking Committee works to improve off-street parking in Downtown Newark.  This committee is constantly striving for more user-friendly and cost-effective ways to operate lots and meters, increased participation in the parking validation program, cooperation between private owners, as well as incorporating long-range parking plans with economic development to prepare Newark for future economic success.  The work plan of the Parking Committee outlines the proposed strategy for meeting its goals. 

The Parking Committee meets the second Wednesday of each month at 10:00 a.m. in City Hall.  For more information, consult the postings in City Hall or call 302-366-7030.
