A new mobile parking app is arriving in the city of Rochester.

Officials say the Flowbird app will let drivers make payments at select city parking meters and pay stations and allows motorists to set customizable notifications for meter expirations and extensions.

“We continue to modernize our metered parking technologies, and this new app brings us further into the digital age,” Mayor Malik Evans said in a statement. “This is just the latest improvement our parking team has made to increase flexibility and convenience for those who work, play, and visit our city.”

“There are several benefits to this feature,” City Parking Director Sarah Nowack said in a statement. “If someone is conducting business at City Hall or the County Office building, or is downtown for a festival or event, they can move their vehicle to a different valid parking location and keep using the same paid time until their original meter session runs out.”

Pay stations and parking meters will be displayed with a blue decal letting residents know how to pay by app or text.
