Anchorage Community Development Authority’s (ACDA) parking division, EasyPark’s, Downtown Employee Discount Program has been modified to allow for new hires to receive the 70% parking discount immediately, if they make less than $35,000 a year.

“We have received quite a bit of customer feedback from business owners regarding the challenges of getting new hires started on the discount parking program,” said Melinda Gant, Acting Executive Director for ACDA. “The parking management team of EasyPark reviewed the parking program and made adjustments to support downtown Anchorage’s large influx of summertime hires.”
