Jack Smith Makes It Official: Donald Trump Got Away With EverythingShoppers in downtown Colorado Springs, Old Colorado City and Manitou Springs won't have to worry about dipping into their holiday cash to pay for parking on select days this season. Officials in Colorado Springs and Manitou said their special parking promotions are intended to draw visitors to support local businesses during the biggest shopping period of the year. The day after holiday sales kick off on Black Friday, downtown Colorado Springs hosts Small Business Saturday all day on Nov. 30 in one square mile of downtown. Several shops and restaurants will offer sales and specials that day. Additionally, all Colorado Springs city-owned parking garages, lots and meters will be free Thursday to Saturday downtown and in Old Colorado City. "We want to encourage residents and visitors alike to visit downtown Colorado Springs and Old Colorado City to support our wide variety of small businesses during this holiday week," Public Works Director Richard Mulledy, who also oversees the city's parking enterprise, said in a news release Monday. Colorado Springs officials worked with stakeholders in Old Colorado City and the Downtown Partnership to offer the parking promotions, Mulledy added. The city will place hoods over free meters in downtown, including on Tejon Street from Cache La Poudre to Rio Grande streets and the associated side streets within one block of Tejon. Parking in downtown Colorado Springs, Old Colorado City and Manitou Springs will be free on select days this holiday shopping season, including on Small Business Day, Saturday, Nov. 30, 2024.
