Silverton's penny parking meters were a city identity. Now, they're being removed

Dec 18, 2024 at 08:02 pm

Drive around downtown Silverton and look for parking spot and you might find one of the few remaining penny meters anywhere in the world.

Silverton's penny parking meters were a city identity. Now, they're being removed

Silverton's iconic penny parking meters are being retired and given to local nonprofits to sell.

The meters, which were installed in 1949, charged a penny for 12 minutes of parking and a dime for two hours.

The city began phasing out the penny meters in 2001, but a handful remained scattered throughout downtown.

In May, the city stopped charging for parking and put up signs indicating the meters were not being enforced, allowing people to park for up to four hours at a time.

A resolution passed by the councilors on Dec. 2 now allows parking for up to three hours.

The city is conducting a "visioning" process for downtown, which includes considering the future of parking.

One option being considered is adding parking kiosks and resuming charging for parking.

“I will let the facts lead me in my decision making, but I’m not feeling currently that is the way I want to go,” Freilinger said. “I think it spoils the historic downtown feel, and we can come up with a parking situation for free parking with enforcement.”
