Enforcement Changes (Increase in Fines) to Metered and Residential Parking

Be Aware of Enforcement Changes (Increase in Fines) to Metered and Residential Parking

In an effort to educate the public on these changes, Mayor Michael Pantelides has called for a “grace period” for first time parking offenders until October 1, 2016.

Effective Immediately:

During the grace period, first time offenders for both metered and residential parking will not receive a fine. Instead, they will receive a written warning that encourages the vehicle owner to explore alternative parking options at annapolisparking.com.

After the first warning has been issued:

  • (Metered Parking) A $40 fine will be issued for staying past the maximum time allowed at a metered space. Each additional violation will result in a $40 fine.
  • (Residential Parking) Repeat offenders that illegally park in a residential area will continue to receive a $40 ticket for each violation, rather than the escalating fines up to $140.00, even if they have incurred multiple violations. 

Effective October 1, 2016:

  • (Metered Parking) A $40 fine will be issued for staying past the maximum time allowed at a metered space. Each additional violation will result in a $40 fine.
  • (Residential Parking) Fines will be increased on an escalating schedule starting at $40 and costing as much as $140:
  1. Fine for initial offense: $40.00 (Two times the daily maximum garage fee)
  2. Second violation in a one year period: $70.00
  3. Third violation in a one year period: $105.00
  4. Fourth violation (or greater) in a one year period: $140.00

SP+ is using new License Plate Recognition technology, which is mounted on two enforcement vehicles and will allow for a more accurate reading of license plates on vehicles that have been parked illegally in a residential district.
