Danielle Battaglia, News & Observer – Wrightsville Beach plans to make $3.2 million off your parking fees this year to offset what residents would pay in property taxes. Parking on the island increased last summer to $5 an hour with a $25-per-day cap. Farther south, Carolina Beach charges $5 an hour with a $20-a-day cap. Beginning April 1, Surf City will charge $3 an hour or $15 a day.
