CITY’S PARKING ENFORCEMENT IMPROVEMENTS CONTINUE

Mayor Mike Purzycki announced another in a series of improvements to the City’s parking enforcement system last month, most significant among them being a proposal to lower the cost of certain parking tickets to $25 from the current $40. Mayor Purzycki said the City continues to make progress with its plan to issue fewer parking tickets, thereby reducing hassles for residents as well as for the City government bureaucracy.

“The City’s mission with these improvements is to maintain parking order on the streets, stop drivers from illegally taking neighborhood parking spaces, and keep City streets clean — all without issuing as many tickets as we have in previous years,” said the Mayor. “Less enforcement is better for residents and government workers.”

Additional Parking Enforcement Improvements will be announced in the weeks and months ahead.
