ST. LOUIS (AP) — The director of Lambert-St. Louis International Airport is pledging to rein in a program that has given free parking to everyone from mayors to senators, lobbyists and even the spouses of former elected officials. The little-known free-parking courtesy cards have been doled out for decades.

Documents obtained by the St Louis Post Dispatch through open-records laws show that the free parking access was given to Democrats and Republicans.

A total of about 150 cardholders get long-term parking at some of the airport’s best locations and avoid the hourly fees that can run up to $23 a day.

The airport’s director, Rhonda Hamm-Niebruegge, has told cardholders the cards will be deactivated Oct. 1.
