From the 10th of August in Kiev radically changed the powers of the attendants. Now they only advise drivers and help them to Park properly, and to take payment directly for the Park can’t. This has introduced four new ways to pay for this service:

the meter;
with the help of SMS;
using a special mobile application;
using the payment coupon (pass), which can be bought in newsstands, by the way, their price for a month varies from 300 to 630 UAH depending on the Parking zone.

In KSCA said that this initiative will help to minimize cases of non-payment of Parking and increase funds in the budget.

“We have a large number of failures from the Parking lot was due to the fact that it was not known who the money goes. I from hands have given – and I do not know whether they will reach to the budget. From today this will be no more” – then said Deputy head of Kyiv city state administration Mykola Povoroznyk.

Only in the capital there are three Parking zones, which differ in the rates and distance from the center. By the way, on weekends from 00:00 to 24:00 hours – Parking is not free.

On weekdays for passenger cars under the following tariffs:

1 area from 8:00 to 22:00 – 10 UAH an hour

What has changed in Kiev after the elimination of the Valet

Initially it was noted that the Parking attendants were involved in many corruption schemes and the money they received from the drivers, not always walked in the city budget. Now corruption risks were much smaller, and therefore the Parking attendants on the streets of Kiev will never come back – comments about this site, “Today,” said the mayor of Kiev Dmitry Belotserkovets.

“The Valet in Kiev will not. The city refused on principle to payment in cash in favour of cashless payment, because the risks of corruption are very large. The city understands that at the moment it will get less funding, because the conscious is very small,” said the Belotserkovets.

But Gregory Melnichuk, co-coordinator of the Council for urban planning of Kiev, said that the return of the Valet, but only after the adoption of the respective legislation on liability for non-payment, which is now in Ukraine. In principle, to eliminate the function of the attendants was quite weird, said the expert.

“When the Parking attendant’s work will cease to be a strange function that person has to persuade another to pay the sanctions because he does not pay, there is no… Why there was such a contingent of valets – because in the legislation we have no responsibility for non-payment of Parking,” says Melnychuk.

By the way, from October 26 came into force a new law that provides a penalty from 1020 to 1700 UAH for stopping or Parking in the handicapped spots. When Parking, the driver should be documents, which confirm the existence of a disability, he, or one of the passengers, otherwise you’ll have to pay a fine.

Overall the issue of fines for unpaid Parking still remained open. Now the city authorities are unable to evacuate the car, parked under prohibiting signs or fine those who have not paid Parking

“No penalties for failure to pay Parking as it was not before. So you need to accept the second reading of bill No. 5364. Now the city may receive less revenue from Parking, but this is due to the fact that it is not a bill. You cannot build Parking lots. You need to make a law, and then gradually to make it work, but this solution for several years,” explains Belotserkovets.

According to the expert, in the capital should be built new Parking lots, but you need to pass a bill, and it will take a lot of time.

By the way, the Valet Parking in the streets can still be found. Despite the fact that their activity in Kiev from August 10 this year was, in fact, illegal in some places, they continue to work and charge drivers money.

We will remind, earlier the mayor of Kiev Vitali Klitschko said that if the valets demand money from drivers, you can call the police and deal with the situation, because in fact their activities are illegal and unlawful.
