Very minor news, but UFV and the City of Abbotsford have lowered parking costs for events at the AESC.

Good move, IMO.

The University of the Fraser Valley (UFV) and the city of Abbotsford have partnered to lower the costs, dropping prices in UFV lots from $10 per event to $5. Parking on College Drive will be $5 per event, $3 on Gillis Road and $2 on McKenzie Road.

Much of the parking for AESC events uses UFV lots, with the revenue going to the university. UFV students recently worked with the Abbotsford Heat hockey club to conduct market research as part of a business course. Their findings indicated that $10 parking fees deterred some potential customers. UFV decided to reduce fees after consulting with the city, Global Spectrum and the Heat.
