SUPPORT SERVICES DIVISION PARKING CONTROL The Owatonna Police Department has transitioned to a new downtown parking system. The graduated parking fine system for downtown parking violations has been in effect since January 1, 2009. The successful work of both internal and external partners to implement and administer this system has proved to be effective. Since the implementation of the graduated system we have seen a decrease of 47% in the amount of 2-4 hour tickets issued in the downtown area. In 2009 a total of 2,136 tickets were issued for 2-4 hour parking of this total 1,061 were warning tickets only. We feel we are accomplishing the goal of maintaining a vibrant downtown with parking that is user friendly to customers, businesses, and residents.
