I got a ticket last year because I parked under a bust stop sign. It didn't say "No Parking" on it, and actually there was a "No Parking" five or six feet away with an arrow pointing the opposite way toward the corner. I was so mad I emailed half of the KC government offices. The mayor, city manager, basically every email address I could find.
They ended up emailing me back (a guy from the mayor's office) and throwing it out. So I sent a letter to the Star saying the guy helped me out and they put it on the website. You could try doing something like that. |

My parking vent relates to the Amish who park their horses in my community and leave piles of green "apples" in half of the parking lots in town.

That sucks dude. The town I live in created a snow ordinance this past winter. You are now allowed to park on the any street at any time if it snows or face having your vehicle towed and a 150 dollar fine. The problem is in the winter it snows once a week minimum with different amounts of severity and the ordinance is never anounced when it goes into effect and at what time so every body is left guessing.
Many people without driveways were told ( after thier cars were towed ) that they should have parked in thier yard. Cities ,nowadays especially, will do anything to make and save money. |

When I lived in DC you had to pay a yearly fee to park on the street. They give you a sticker and if you don't have it they give you a ticket.

damnit, this reminds me of the $2 parking ticket I got a couple months ago that I left in my glovebox and just forgot about it. I hope I don't have a warrant out for my arrest
