But the higher rates won't apply to everyone. County employees who park at the two-story garage will be exempt from the increases.
The garage is a convenient option for people who work or visit downtown. But some drivers say they're already frustrated with the cost of parking.
"Any addition to what they're already charging is absolutely ridiculous. There's no way anybody can afford it," said Michael Johnson, another downtown parker.
"We really need to update the infrastructure, have it be a safe place for people to park," she said.
"Even though we're raising rates, it's still well below market value for parking downtown," Nava said.
"I think that's ridiculous. Nobody should be exempt," he said.
"If we're all going to be charged with rate hikes, then it should be equal across the board," he said.
"We want to be one of the best places to work and have employees know that they are valued. They're parking every day. They're a stable source of income for our parking enterprise," Nava said.
The new parking rates take effect Jan. 1. The county can also increase rates by up to an additional 5% each year.
