The system is broken - and we can fix it...

The city of Wilmington is in the process of becoming a truly awesome city - a place where entrepreneurs, artists, educators, and businesses create incredible things.

Since October of 2011, the citizens, business community, arts community, Wilmington City Officials, and others have been engaged in improving the parking and parking enforcement issues in the city of Wilmington.

Huge progress has been made and the direction we are going as a community is extremely positive!

This blog chronicles the efforts of all who helped make this happen...

Can you make sense of this?

Seriously, there's four of us trying to figure this out right now - so I'm crowd sourcing:



(c)
Parking within any block, whether at the same location or not, for an aggregate period of time in excess of the time permitted by the department of public works shall be deemed a violation of this chapter; and any person removing a vehicle from any given place on any street, to which this section applies, before the expiration of the period authorized for such location and returning it to any location on either side of the same street within the same block before the end of the first hour beyond the posted limited parking time shall be considered as violating the provisions of this chapter. A conviction of a violation of this subsection shall be punishable by a fine in the amount of $40.00.

  1. Lawyers get to bill $350/hour to write stuff like this. We're in the wrong profession.

  2. Ok, so you can't move a car within the same block to avoid a 2hr limit ticket, and even if you leave and come back you can still get a ticket if you park anywhere on the same block and weren't gone for at least an hour? First part is pretty darn strict(and definitely not on the signs). The second, doesn't make a lot of sense. Are they watching you, and starting a timer as you pull away?
