ANAHEIM : Stadium Parking Fee Increase on the Council Docket
The City Council tonight will consider raising parking fees by $1 for most events at Anaheim Stadium.
Under the proposal, fees for California Angels baseball games would go up from $5 to $6, while rates for football, concerts and motor sports events would rise from $6 to $7.
If approved, the fee hike would generate net revenues of $348,000 for the 1995-96 budget.
City officials say the higher fees are needed to offset increased operating and maintenance costs.
Also, the council will vote whether to pay for a study examining the economic benefits of having the California Angels play in Anaheim.
The city will consider releasing up to $23,000 from the stadium’s reserve fund to pay for the study.
The city will use the study in its negotiations with the California Angels, whose lease expires in 2001.
