I paid a fine. I was just recently put on massive prednisone because of allergies and high doses cause cognitive issues. Hence I forgot to pay the meter. The prednisone is to keep me from strangling to death. I’ll make sure to stay away from downtown and all businesses from now on. Amazon is the safer option for people with disabilities.
parking meter 6THW407-B, on 6th St between Rogers and Madison - accepted my coins today but never displayed any time and continued to flash a red light. It does not have a ParkMobile code on the front - so I had to find a different spot so as to not get a ticket. I put $1 in before I realized it was not registering!
Many orange "no parking" signs that have been placed downtown are expired but are still up days after the event is over and the last day of no parking is over. This is causing a problem because it limits parking (especially handicap parking spaces). Please remove signs that are expired!
Meter is smashed open/broken.
Predatory Towing in Bloomington. I have noticed an increase in the amount of tow trucks in and around the downtown area. In particular, Speedy Wrecker Service, has continually towed multiple vehicles in parking meters and then demanded payment be made in cash only. If the city wants people to be invited to spend time downtown they need to create a city ordinances that addresses the cost of towing $100 flat fee and also uses the 24 hour waiting period. What kind of community does Bloomington want to be?
Parking meter 7615 on Kirkwood had a coin stuck in it. The light was yellow, but it was the only open spot. I thought the 25 minutes remaining would be enough. When my order took longer than expected at Nick’s, I ran back out and was forced to use a credit card or risk a ticket. I didn’t need to pay for a full hour, nor did I want to pay the service fee when I had coins to use.
I had called on 11/9 and spoke with Beth we had paid our ticket with check number 5147 for $20 and it cleared our bank. The plate number is not ours my plate number is ABP 544 Mazda. She said that she was going to take care of this. Today I just received another letter please can this be taken care of.
Parking meter 4THW206-B in zone 76112 on 4th St has a screen that is unreadable.
Illegally parked car on the street on S Mill Stone Way, near Sare Road. Parked in opposite direction of traffic (15.32.170). White Mercury sedan.
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.
