Biddeford’s ready to tackle parking
BIDDEFORD — City officials will seek proposals soon for construction of an estimated $15 million parking garage to add as many as 1,000 parking spaces off Main Street.
City Manager John Bubier said the project would likely be funded by revenue from a tax increment financing district that sets aside a portion of the taxes collected from the Biddeford Crossing shopping center for improvements downtown.
“New parking is crucial” to draw businesses to Biddeford, Bubier said.
