How does parking work for you now? I'm considering getting some parking permits for Collective Agency, am thinking members could pick them up here then put them in their car then bring them back when done.
Collective Agency would pay a monthly permit fee. Am wondering whether to charge members who want passes for themselves and visitors a monthly fee, maybe $75 or $100 per month. We have paid meetings and am wondering whether to charge them too. It would likely get us more meetings and members to have car parking downtown; the meetings parking would pay for themselves but for members, do you charge, or not, if the amount you pay per parking spot costs almost as much as how much a person pays for membership? Downtown parking is currently a deterrent for some potential members, and some members have said they would buy additional memberships if there was free parking. So I think it makes sense to have 5 parking spots to start, but am wondering if charging extra for parking might be worse than providing it included in membership. We expanded to second location recently, and a third location I'm considering would be in a different neighborhood with free street parking; am wondering if providing different amenities at each location has worked for anyone, and how?
