History
The center was designed to "instill civic pride" and provide transit alternatives for the surrounding community. Parking is in high demand here and some people park in nearby shopping centers risking being towed. In 2012 the City of Fairfield planned on expanding the site by adding 1,000 more parking spaces and moving the vanpooling to a site 1/3 miles away. In 2015 parking fees were debated to mitigate overcrowding at the park and ride lot. There was even a petition by citizens who protested the US$50 a month parking fees with $5 daily parking; the city council was split on the decision. There is electric vehicle charging here provided by Tesla. In 2016 it was reported that a colorful glass styled 1,200 space parking garage was to be added by 2019. The city has struggled to find land fit for development of additional parking.
