I received a parking citation today. I had use the ParkMobile app. I had valid parking. I called to see if I can get this waived and the lady on the phone very rudely had to explain to me the Difference between the Number 0 And the alphabetical O. I simply asked her. How am I to know the difference on my license plate? She said they have squared and rounded corners. This is me. I feel like this whole thing was a waste of both of our times. I don’t understand why it wasn’t both ways when the plate was checked.

Who's running this city?? The parking ticket fees are outrageous...!!! $30 is a punitive money grab, not an appropriate parking ticket. If you want the stores downtown to stop shutting down, and you want visitors from out of town to enjoy this town as a tourist destination, stop charging exhorbitant fees to park and exhorbitant parking tickets if a meter goes slightly over time.... half the storefronts on the square are empty... maybe stop being penny wise and pound foolish, milking people who live here and want to shop downtown with outrageous parking tickets. I'm going to call the mayor's office about this as well.

I would like to know what code or regulation at INDOT or USDOT allows barriers on the street that are high vis orange to be covered up and camouflaged? These would be the parking places in front of certain restaurants. What liability does the City haven’t allowing this to happen?

The ‘no parking’ zones were recently repainted for street parking off 8th and Indiana. It seems that the no parking designated zone was extended 3-5 feet. Was there a reason for this? Now, there is even more limited street parking, and it’s going to be a warzone when the rest of the students move in come August.

I received a notice in the mail of an overdue parking citation. It had been issued on 6/20/24 and the notice said that I had failed to pay it within 14 days, so the fine was now doubled. However, I never saw the parking ticket on my car, and I never received any other notice that I had received a ticket. I do not think that this is a fair system, as parking tickets left on cars can be tampered with by other people. I have paid this parking ticket, but I'd like you to look into this policy and consider changing it so that there is some way to ensure that the person receiving a ticket actually sees it in time to pay it before it is doubled.

This is a heads up that the parking app that the City Of Bloomington uses isn’t working, at least for me. I don’t know if other users are having this problem, but it won’t sign me in. I have an existing account, and it says it will send you an email, but it never does. I’ve checked my spam folder. I tried this Thursday, and today (Friday) and still no email from either time. I’m using quarters now but I think it’s worth harassing the company.
