Title: Parking Fee??
Post by: cav58d on August 23, 2007, 06:28:22 PM

Parking: There is no fee for parking, however, a parking donation of $10 per car requested.

I never understood why places say this.....Okay, so there is no "fee" to park, however, you you request that I "donate" $10 to park...

same thing, no?

Could be tax or permit implications.

I usually see this for non-profit orgs, schools, and such.  My guess is that its a tax/permit issue.

a nearby mall donates all revenue from parking meters to various charities.

it may be something like this.
