FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is a Pay & Display meter?

They are automated parking meters which replace the traditional single space parking meters. These automated meters service multiple parking spaces. All customers pay the meter and display the payment receipt on their vehicle's dashboard.

How do I use the meter?

The meters are very user friendly. Just look for the instructions located below the face of each meter.

1. Press any key
2. Input desired hours
3. Make payment
   1. Bills, coins, or credit card
   2. Exact change required
4. Take receipt
5. Receipt Placement
   1. Face up on Driver's side dashboard
   2. For motorcycles, display ticket on any surface visible to an enforcement officer

What method of payment can I use?

For your convenience, all pay and display meters accept coins, bills, debit and Amex, Mastercard, Visa & Discover. However, the machines do not give change.

What if I paid for more time than I need?

Unfortunately, there are no refunds for time purchased.

Will I get a ticket while paying the meter?

No, all of the meters are within view of the parking areas, and the enforcement officers know to look for you prior to issuing a ticket.

I was issued a parking ticket while parked at a meter. Who do I contact?

Please follow the directions located on the back of the ticket. If you feel the ticket was issued in error, information about the meter history will be available to a hearing officer during the hearing.

What if I have a motorcycle?

Motorcycle riders are also required to pay the meter and display the receipt on the console under the windshield or in the seat strap, if applicable. It must be visibly displayed yet secure enough to not blow away. Other cities have not had a theft problem, however if you are ticketed, and you paid with a credit card, we can verify the transaction which will allow for the ticket to be voided.

I'm disabled. Do I need to pay for parking?

Disabled persons whose vehicle is displaying a valid disabled parking tag issued from a state agency, are not required to pay Park District multiple space pay and display devices.
