Rehoboth Beach parking meters and permits to go into effect May 30th

REHOBOTH BEACH, Del. – The City of Rehoboth Beach parking meters and permits will go into effect this coming Saturday, May 30th.

Officials say this was originally scheduled to go into effect on May 22, however commissioners delayed enforcement in an effort to provide relief measures to reduce the economic impact on businesses.

The city says they are estimating a loss of roughly $250,000 in parking revenue over the holiday weekend.

Metered parking runs from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., with all meters having a maximum of a 12-hour limit. Meter rates are $3 an hour on Rehoboth Avenue from the Boardwalk to Second Street and First Street from Baltimore Avenue to Wilmington Avenue. All other meters in the city are $2 per hour. Visitors can pay meters through ParkMobile, quarters, and credit cards. All 30-minute spaces and accessible spaces require payment during the parking season.

In all non-metered areas within the city, parking permits are required daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Permits are for sale at the Parking Department, located at 1 City Hall Drive, as well as the kiosk on the south side of Rehoboth Avenue entering the town. The kiosk is open Friday through Tuesday from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., and the Parking Department is open daily from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. through May 30th, when its hours will change to 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
