Formed in 1997, the Downtown Community Parking District (DCPD) was established by the San Diego City Council as a mechanism to reinvest parking meter revenue back into the community with the goal of mitigating parking and mobility impacts. Council Policy 100-18, the guiding document which established Community Parking Districts, specifies how parking meter revenues shall be expended through various programs and projects. The Downtown Parking Management Group (DPMG) is the advisory group for the Downtown Community Parking District who oversees initiatives include increasing the parking supply, managing the existing parking inventory, monitoring and analyzing parking meter utilization, providing recommendations regarding parking meter rates, times, hours of operations and locations, providing mobility information through wayfinding or media, providing funding for community shuttles or circulator systems and facilitating the use of alternative forms of transportation to reduce parking demand in Downtown San Diego.

The DPMG typically meets monthly, every second Thursday of the month, at 11:30 a.m. 

Meetings will take place in-person at Civic Center Plaza, 1200 3rd Avenue, 4th Floor Conference Room, San Diego, CA 92101.
