at 9:45 a.m. 4/29 I tried to use the parking meter app, which i have used many times) on 76118 (i was at "b"). the app said no such parking place. i tried three times making sure i was getting the number right. could have been a system-wide failure rather than this meter.
however, while I'm at it, i resorted to analog quarter method. I put two in a glanced down to see I only had 15 min. I put some more in and they registered properly. might want to have someone put a bunch of quarters in to see if this was just a fluke or a problem with this meter.
p.s. i actually like the meter system. previously there just was no option to park on the street downtown as all slot always full. now one at least has that option. i think with the free hours in the garages/lot and their proximity, most of the time that should work for most people.

My sister has lived in Bloomington, near campus, for 30 years. I drive down from NWIndiana several times a year to visit her. The last time, in April, I received 2 parking tickets for parking in front of her house with an expired parking pass. Turns out, she never received the 2017 pass she paid for and thought the 2016 on her fridge WAS the 2017 pass. So now I'm out $40 (and I'm currently unemployed) and she's out whatever money she paid for the pass. I tried to appeal the tickets and they were DENIED. This is ridiculous. I am not a teenager or college student trying to pull a fast one. This was an honest mistake and I don't believe I should be charged. I no longer feel welcome by the city of Bloomington.

HEllo,
On Wednesday I ued the parking space in front of Anatolia REstaurant in downtown. When I parked my car on 5.45 pm, I entered around 2 hours of parking and paid with my credit card. My parking should end on 8.15 pm. However I spent more time than I expected in Anatolia so I stayed in the parking space extra 45 mins. How can I pay for this extra 45 mins for parking?
Thanks
