The recent privatization of the city's parking meters has proven to be one big mess and LAZ Parking, the firm now in charge of the meters, admits that it wasn't prepared. In a report filed by the Tribune, a temporary employee who worked for LAZ said, "The city has three types of meters. We had plenty of devices to reprogram two kinds of meters, but not nearly enough for the last type. As a result, the new stickers being put on the meters did not match what many of the meters were charging." The company used security guards and temporary employees to make the transition. Another hang-up, according to the Trib's source? Batteries.
