Cars parked on St. Paul city streets or alleys for more than 48 hours are in violation of ordinance #157.04(8).
The Saint Paul Police Department's Parking Enforcement Unit receives many complaints each day about cars abandoned on city streets. Cars parked on city streets for an extended period are an eyesore and become a quality of life issue for the community. Some citizens are not aware that there is a city ordinance that prohibits vehicles from being parked on any street or alley for more than forty-eight (48) hours, Ordinance # 157.04(8). Vehicles that violate this ordinance are subject to a $33.00 parking citation.
The Saint Paul Police Department would also like to remind the community that public streets and alleys are public property; thus anyone can park up to 48 hours on the street, and it is not a violation to park in front of another person's home.
For more information on parking regulations, please go to the city's website at www.stpaul.gov; click Government; then city charter & code; then search for parking. The Saint Paul Police Department Parking Enforcement Unit can be reached at 651-266-5585.
