People parking downtown will get a break from the meters on Thursday.
In honor of the July Fourth holiday, parking meters will not need to be paid, according to the Chattanooga Parking Authority.
Other rules still apply: no parking in bus or loading zones, yellow curb areas or no-parking areas; no parking in handicap without a permit; and no parking in the Fort Wood residential district.
