In Murnau parking lots, like here at Forsteranger, you can park for free for 30 minutes.
The majority of the transport committee now voted to shorten this time.

At its most recent meeting, the Transport and Mobility Committee voted to re-enact the parking fee regulations, which will increase the fees by 20 percent.
And what's more: half a Saturday should become a full Saturday with a fee and the bread button should be retained, but in a slimmed down version.
Murnau - Almost all parking fees are to be increased by 20 percent.
Just not the fees for the Froschhauser See annual ticket and for the Froschhauser See and Staffelsee annual tickets.
They should be doubled, from 25 to 50 euros or from 50 to 100 euros.
At its most recent meeting, Florian Krammer from the public order office also asked the Transport and Mobility Committee to discuss charging parking fees on seven full days in the future.
At the moment the payment period is limited to Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday until lunchtime.
Only in the hiking car parks will those parking be asked to pay every day, including Sundays.
No fees will be charged on Sunday; Mayor Rolf Beuting (ÖDP/Citizens' Forum) couldn't think of a reason for this.
Stefan Lechner (ÖDP/Citizens' Forum) suggested leaving Sundays free.
“I'll just say it because it's Sunday.” He could imagine charging fees for this on Saturdays into the evening in the future.
It is common practice in many communities not to charge fees on Sundays, when there are many churchgoers and walkers, said Michael Hosp (CSU).
“We should keep it the way it is,” said Hosp. He was “totally” against Sunday parking fees, emphasized Josef Bierling (CSU), referring to many communities that do it this way.
Even without a deeper explanation as to why Sunday was excluded, he could get used to six days, said Beuting.
Wolfgang Köglmayr (More Moving), on the other hand, wanted to talk about 30-minute free parking, which according to the administrative proposal should no longer exist in the future.
The free short-term ticket is a “good marketing measure” and is used by many, for example to get bread rolls.
Köglmayr: “Let’s talk about the breadcrumbs button again!” Beuting could understand the marketing argument, but he also believed that free parking encouraged unnecessary car trips to the center.
He would be willing to keep the bread button if a seven-day week was introduced.
Michael Jungnitsch (ÖDP/Citizens' Forum) welcomed the abolition of the 30-minute free parking at Froschhauser See and reported on bathers who - reminded by their cell phone alarm clock - repeatedly bought the free ticket.
In the end, the committee voted unanimously in favor of re-enacting the parking fee regulations.
Fees are therefore charged from Monday to Saturday, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The majority voted to keep the roll button, but not at Froschhauser See.
In the future, however, it should only be possible to solve the problem in 15 and no longer 30 minutes.
