The City of Solana Beach is considering time limits on selected beach parking. Solana Beach city-owned beach front parking lots, which are likely heavily used by employees from businesses, may soon have a four hour limit. The reasons for the time limits are to allow more visitors access to the lots 82 spots across the from Fletcher Cove. The lot was dedicated to public use after  Solana beach developed Fletcher Cove Park in 2006. The city, however has received several complaints about limit parking at the beach. The city of Solana Beach has concluded after a brief investigation that the parking lots are being used by the local businesses in the area, which prohibits the use by the general public that would like to enjoy the beach.  _______________________________________________________... 02/15/2011
