went downtown to shop for the holidays. Was late to the meter by 5 minutes. got a $20 ticket. Goodbye downtown. Hello amazon. Cheaper, easier, and they don't give these outrageous fines. Thought you might want to know. I am sending a letter to the Book Corner, and another to Goods for Cooks, to let them know they will never see me again. Not a great idea on your part, if you asked me. For the sake of downtown and these businesses, I hope I am wrong. But I doubt it.

Citation # Q1500545: I put my credit card into the wrong meter (chose the one facing my parking slot) & didn't realize I had to use Meter/Space Number 102B (because it was facing the other way). When I came out of Samira Restaurant, I still had 16' of unexpired time (in the "wrong" meter). I hope you will understand that I actually did pay for my parking space. Thank you

coins stuck. could only use my credit card. this costs extra. too many meters with this problem. so I'm starting to document each time I get one. this is 3 out of 5 parking attempts have I had to use my credit card cuz there's coins stuck in the coin. I don't know if it means it's full of corns whether there's a different problem.

The meter on College Ave in front of Goods for Cooks is working (green light) but the screen is not displaying anything so it’s impossible to know how much time you have.

Hello I used a downtown metered parking space on January 9th and have since been charged two additional times to that card. One of those times I was out of state at the time of charge and the other time is today which I haven’t used metered parking. This is very frustrating and seems like an error in your system. Can you please refund me and remove my card from your system? Thank you

When using Butler Park for youth baseball, please remind parents that parking on 9th street is one directional (cars pointing east) and that they cannot park beyond the no parking signage. Doing so occludes the view of the intersection and creates a dangerous traffic scenario. We have lots of foot and bike traffic at 9th and Williams. Had several parents try to skirt the rule this morning and get rather quippy when asked to move their vehicle. We welcome youth baseball on the Near West Side, just ask that parents adhere to the posted signs as to not create a dangerous situation for motorists, pedestrians, or bicyclists. Plenty of parking at the community garden just half a block from the ball field. :)

Uber/Lyft pickup after 9pm. Just a suggestion to fix some issues at night and not having to pick up in a lane and slowing traffic. At kirkwood and Dunn and in front of brothers bar and the bars in that area. With parking garages up and running could the parking spots in those areas be no parking after 9pm to fix the issue of Uber’s and Lyfts causing traffic issues? I am an Uber driver and it gets very unsafe for everyone in these two areas. Just a suggestion that I thought might work and will only take up a few parking spots that within a small distance have parking garages close by
