SMDC reaches deal with city on parking ramp.

SMDC and the city of Duluth have reached a tenitive agrement on the first street parking ramp. After a long debate over what SMDC should pay for there spots it may come to an end on Thursday.

A debate that started after a poor choice by Mayor Bergson to not get anything in writing may end. The council will hold a special meeting tomorrow to deal with the issue. They will vote on a agrement reached today between the city and SMDC. The agrement is for SMDC to purchase 200 spaces at $72 each, which will increase 3 percent annually through 2027, meaning that by the end of the agreement spaces would cost $126 a month.

I do hope this will be a end to this issue.
