Meter E5TH311A has jammed coin slot.
Abandoned car with expired plate parked on the public street Southern Oaks Drive for more than 1 month
Parking meter 76118 is not accepting debit/credit card payment. I tried to use my card at least 15 times, but it would not work. I accidentally paid for 1 hour of parking at the spot next to it to verify my card was working. I had to install the mobile app to pay for parking at this spot.
Few motorists are paying for parking with the meters after 5 in the 300 block of E. 7th street, costing lost revenue for the city.
Woman living in car outside framemakers - not paying parking meter and area around car covered in trash. Wakes up local residents in the middle of the night screaming profanities. Not sure why the city is allowing this behavior. Attempted to call the mayors office but they have stopped responding to calls.
This parking meter located at the library would not read my credit card(s). I tried the two I have multiple times. No I tried fast pull, slow pull, leaving it in. Wiping the card off. Etc Please make note and don't ticket me. Dawn Herr
The incident occured at approximately 10:20am on 2/15/22. We were performing work at the One City Centre for Connor Reporting (120 W 7th St), when we parked our 2009 Ford Edge in the Taco Bell parking lot. We parked in the lot between 9:50-10:00am. I have 2 main issues with the non-consenual tow I received from TowTime Towing and Breakdown Solutions. #1 I was charged $168 for the tow, when it clearly states in your city ordinance for a max of $135 for the tow [4.32.130]. The car was picked up from the tow facility at 11:03a. #2 I did not receive a copy of any written authorizations from Taco Bell regarding the authorized tow of my vehicle [4.32.100 subsection a]. Please direct me in the correct way to file an appeal against this predatory tow. I am looking to receive full reimbursement for the improper tow. I am also interested in verifying the licensure of TowTime in regards to [4.32.040].
Jennifer works at Wonderlab and said she's tried to report several times this week that the parking meters in front of Wonderlab (on 4th St. between Madison and College, minimally) have been blacked out. It looks to her like someone has taken a Sharpie and completely drawn over the meters' LED panels. She's received many questions from Wonderlab patrons about the meters and whether they're functioning.
I am attempting to appeal a parking citation and when I search my license plate number, IL R958624, it is not being recognized.
Parking Meters Issues: Over the past few months I have tried to park in street parking only to find that the meters state: Charge Card Only. Of course, you don't know this until you are trying to deposit money in the meter. So, I guess the choice is to pay the fee using a card and also get stuck with the additional service fee or move to another meter. Why are there so many meter using just charge cards? and, why not designate the meters so that I don't have to bother stopping. This I my second request for an answer. I have also called and never received a call back.
