Parking Services implementing bagged meters for pickup/take out for Columbia merchants

Due to modified ordinances of restaurants and businesses, Parking Services has issued bagged meters for Pickup/Take Out customers. The Main Street, Five Points, Devine Street and Vista districts are each promoting the bagged meters for merchants in their areas. North Columbia and Rosewood districts have historically not experienced limited parking in their areas.

Parking Services is excited to partner with our local hospitality districts in support of Columbia’s thriving restaurant community as we find ourselves practicing recommended social distancing. In partnership with all businesses who are open – in specific capacities such as curbside pickup, take out/to go, online and phone ordering Parking Services has orderly placed bagged meters throughout Columbia business districts to facilitate the ease of quick parking. Restaurants depend on community support and in this time of uncertainty, social distancing means we are still able to support local businesses by ordering via phone and online.
