Parking Services to suspend some enforcement activities

Due to the coronavirus outbreak, Parking Services is currently operating at an emergency support level of coverage and patrol for the downtown area. In light of the low volume of customers visiting the downtown area, Parking Services will support the business owners and employees who are required to be downtown and/or who are supporting downtown by suspending enforcement of non-safety related violations.

These efforts will remain in place beginning immediately and will continue for at least 15 days after coronavirus-related restrictions are lifted in order to help businesses recover.

Suspended Enforcement Activities

The City of Fort Collins Transfort & Parking Services Department will suspend enforcement of the following:

• The 4-Hour Block Face Rule
• Time limited: all timed parking spaces (e.g., 30-minute, 1-hour, 2-hour, etc.)
• Expired registration
• Immobilization (booting)
• Residential Permit Parking areas - With CSU being out of session for the remainder of the semester and with the recent stay at home order, the neighborhoods will have less parking impact by day users, and residents may have a need to keep all tenants at home, and provide parking options.

Continued Enforcement Activities

In an effort to maintain safety, the following enforcement activities will continue:

• Red Curb - prohibited
• Fire hydrant (within 15’)
• No Parking areas
• ADA Parking regulations
• Loading zones
• Blocked driveways and alleys
• Parking in travel lanes, including bike and transit lanes

Ongoing Administrative Actions

In an effort to lessen the impact to affected businesses and downtown employees, Transfort & Parking Services Department will suspend or modify the following:

• Mail notifications will be discontinued to prevent citations from going through the initial 15-day escalation cycle
• Escalations have been turned off for all citations to allow for additional time to contest or pay
• Permit holders will be afforded a one-time waiver if their permit lapses during COVID-19, allowing them to resume their permit when they are able to report to work again. This period will be limited to no more than 2-months after regular operations resume
• All parking permit waitlist fulfillment will remain on hold until further notice, to allow those that have let their permit lapse to resume their permit when they are able to report to work again
• Businesses that request full refunds for permits will either receive an account credit to be used when regular operations resume in order to resume their permit or will receive a refund for all unused months without the possibility to reactivate their permits upon resuming regular operations unless availability exists. If there is not availability at that time they would be placed on a waitlist
• Citations are being placed on hold if the customer needs to contest their citation but cannot come into the office allowing them to contest once regular business operations resume

 

These lists are not intended to be all inclusive of Parking Services efforts.
