How should parking be priced in college towns?

"These places also sometimes experience surges in demand for access to the central area that are seasonal or otherwise cyclical. In the summer, they are surreal—all or most of the amenities intended for a larger, denser population with far fewer people competing for them. Football Saturdays present the opposite problem: the city’s population may double half a dozen days a year"

How I long to live in a society that spends a ton of money on a super nice parking garage for bikes that is under a water fountain. I've seen the vids and it's gorgeous. Too cold, though. I'll find out how cycling is accepted in a different country that isn't the USA if the orange bad 2.0 happens.
