“After a month of outrage from the San Diego community, Mayor Todd Gloria has announced the city will walk back new parking fees at Balboa Park. In a statement released Friday, Gloria announced adjustments to the paid-parking program, including making more lots free for residents. … What had previously been free suddenly cost as much as $16 per day for anyone hoping to go out to dinner, visit any of the museums or just go for a walk. … A few days before implementation, visitors spotted vandalized parking kiosks, with foam stuffed into the cardholders and feces covering the screens.” (02/09/26)
