If You Receive a Ticket...

Parking Smart is a matter of turnover of on-street spaces for customers and visitors seeking downtown goods and services. In order to insure adequate parking turnover for customers, clients, and visitors, it’s imperative that downtown workers park off-street. The goal of the parking program is to provide long-term parking in off-street facilities and short-term parking onstreet in timelimit zones. This goal is accomplished by creating off-street parking opportunities (lots and decks) and generating on-street parking space turnover through timelimits and enforcement. Off-street rental spaces are available through the parking office and by private individuals. Contact the parking office for more information on leasing.

You must pay the appropriate fine within five (5) business days. After five business days, the fine doubles. A ticket not paid within 30 calendar days of the date of issue will subject you to a court summons. Fines may be paid online at romefloyd.com/parking or at the Clerk’s Office, 601 Broad Street, City Hall, or mailed to P.O. Box 1433. Officer cannot collect fines.
