Mayor Donchess
Anyway, here she is. So please just give us a brief explanation.
Ms. Stansfield
Sure so we started a relationship with Pay by Phone back in 2018, it has been very successful. Over the past
12 months the trends app usage is about 30% to 40% of all downtown meter transactions and actually just in
the last month it is at 50% so it is a very popular payment method for visitors of the downtown.
Mayor Donchess
And this enables you to pay your parking meter by your cell phone?
Ms. Stansfield
Correct.
