Boot is Back

Parked illegally? Watch out, towing rates are going up from $48 to $77, and private towers will start using the Boot, thanks to this proposal approved by the Board of Aldermen Monday. … Aldermen also approved Arlene DePino’s proposal to extend a moratorium on building permits on paper streets … And the city approved a new Coastal Plan, which includes putting signs like the one above in areas where developers must allow public access to waterways. Click here to read the city’s new zoning rules, which give the city more legal power enforcing guidelines on developers.

Legitimate parking fines should of course be collected and violations enforced.
However, not all fines are legitimate.
The latest scam involves a pointless extension of the street sweeping season, which normally ends November 1.
You park your car outside your house at night, only to find it gone and a single slapped up cardboard sign saying “No Parking Tuesday” that wasn’t there the night before.
So it is $48 (now $77 I guess) towing and a $55 ticket, all because some incompetent lazy slug of a city employee couldn’t get the sign up 24 hours in advance.

celticexpress I do agree with you on that it just happen to my father. It happened to me last year. The fine and fees were wavied but you are right there does not to be some city rules for the public works people. I have called and complained about it myself.
