The plenary of the House of Representatives Tuesday approved suspension for two weeks of the collection of “all high city-parking fees” charged for vehicles with “no security” guaranty, while lawmakers further investigated the matter.

The decision was taken Tuesday following a 2-hour grilling of Monrovia’s Acting City Mayor Mary Broh who was summoned at the House to provide justification for the city parking fees.

House Speaker Alex J. Tyler later mandated a committee chaired by Rep. Sekou Konneh (Montserrado) to investigate activities of City Hall concerning the parking fees.

Earlier, Madam Broh heard the reading of a communication by Rep. Wesseh Blamoh (Grand Kru) seeking her summon to explain why the MCC charged high city parking fees for vehicles without security guaranty.

Ms. Broh told the lawmakers that the fees were reasonable enough for vehicle owners living in the city.

“The fees are not high. I give an option; you can park your vehicle outside Monrovia and get on the NTA bus to reach your work site or you park and pay the LD50,”she said.

On the question of paying to park vehicles without security guaranty, the acting mayor said if an individual needs security while his/her vehicle is parked, the MCC would charge additional fees to the parking fees.

“In terms of security hiring, you need to pay additional fees,” she added.

The lawmakers later suspended the hearing for about 15 minutes and called for a secret session after which Speaker Tyler mandated the sergeant- at-arms to escort Madam Broh back into the chambers, official venue of the hearing.

Rep. Fofi S. Baimba (Lofa) moved a motion that was passed to suspend the city parking fees for two weeks, while the matter is being investigated.
