PARK(ing) Day Twin Cities – As long as you plug the meter, it’s OK by me.

About

National PARK(ing) Day 2010 is Friday, September 17th!

PARK(ing) Day is an annual, one-day, global event where artists, activists, and citizens collaborate to temporarily transform metered parking spots into “PARK(ing)” spaces: temporary public parks.

Anyone can participate in PARK(ing) Day, though it is strictly a non-commercial project, intended to promote creativity, civic engagement, critical thinking, unscripted social interactions, generosity and play.

As long as you plug the meter, it’s OK by me.

Doug Maday at Public Works Traffic & Parking Services just gave us the official thumbs up.

Thanks Minneapolis!

As long as you plug the meter and don’t do anything illegal or dangerous you shouldn’t catch any flak from the police. In the hopefully rare case that you do, please tell them that we have a thumbs up from Doug Maday at Public Works Traffic & Parking Services.
