A Roosevelt Island resident and Motorgate Garage monthly customer

shares this email sent from Motorgate parking operator SP Plus Parking of a rate hike increase to $350

from the current monthly posted charge of $160.

The resident asks:

Wtf is going on?

I asked the Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC) today for an explanation of the rate hike but no response yet. A Motorgate Garage attendant told me this afternoon that the parking rates for non-residents are going up even more.

Will update when more info received.
