The proposals would have added paid parking on both sides of Congress Street, with rates ranging from $0.50 to $7 per hour depending on the season and unlimited parking time in the new spaces. The committee instead recommended against the plan and discussed charging tour buses or creating formal employee parking options. Separately, it voted 4-0 to recommend increasing certain seasonal traffic fines from $75 to $100; final action by the full City Council was not included in the minutes.
