There's lots of discussion as to whether this will actually work. The arena is publicly funded. The street is also public property. There are always police there to direct traffic (both car and foot).
My belief is that they can't do this. They might be able to add a $5 entry fee to the ticket and then get a rebate from those with parking. But won't that lead to hitchiking up the road?
It's a hot topic here. Personally I dont understand why parking has to be 20$ (OK I do but I think it's ludicrous). Whats more, Sawgrass Mills mall said they really dont mind people parking intheir lot, across from the Arena. And, charging starting July 1st? Very Little will be going on unlike hockey season. I say drop parking prices and make it up in volume. Hmm, I guess they could always install pay toilets to make up the difference.
