Free lunch parking in downtown Toledo extended

Enjoy free lunchtime parking for a little while longer. A long-discussed plan to enforce paid meters all day in downtown Toledo has been delayed by a few months. Early January, when the changes were scheduled to take effect, was deemed too soon to implement the changeover. The new parking policy will begin on April 1.
