Hybrid workers: Here's how you can park in Sacramento garages for as little as $3 a day
Rendering of the KIND project, one of the developments approved in the council action to approve 800 new units of affordable housing.
Sacramento (Nov. 14, 2022) A new, online reservation system is offering steep discounts on daily parking in city garages.
The City of Sacramento launched the system about eight months ago in response to the Covid-19 pandemic and the move by state government to allow employees to work partially in the office and partially at home. Hybrid work schedules mean formerly coveted monthly parking passes often don’t make financial sense, and daily parking deals increase the appeal of coming to the office.
The city system, at reserve.sacpark.org, allows users to check the availability of parking in the city’s five garages up to a week in advance and make a reservation. Depending on demand, the city offers deep discounts from the official daily rate of $25 — often as low as $3.
