City of Spokane to offer free parking to assist in food pickup

SPOKANE, Wash. — On Monday, the City of Spokane announced free 10 minute parking to pick up to-go food orders in the continued support of local restaurants during the coronavirus outbreak.
The city is reserving on-street parking in metered areas, allowing customers and delivery drivers easier access to food pick up.
Free spots will be marked with a yellow sign on parking meters, resulting in over 700 free spaces.
“It is a delicate balance between taking drastic social distancing measures and supporting local businesses. We hope the public will take advantage of the opportunity to #OrderUpSpokane,” said Mayor Nadine Woodward in a release.
Businesses without free spot nearby can request one from the city by emailing parkspokane@spokanecity.org.
