Parking Meters

The Parking Division manages on and off-street parking meters which are located primarily in the Central Business District and Ybor City. Parking meter rates vary depending upon the location of the meter. Cost and enforcement information is displayed on each meter for reference.

Enforcement times for meters vary based upon their distance from the downtown's southern waterfront. The most Southerly meters can be enforced until midnight. Those on the most Northerly limit of downtown are enforced only until 6:00 p.m.

Parking meter violations carry fines ranging from $25.00 for an expired meter to $251 for parking in a space designated for handicap use. Fines can be paid by mail or in person at either the Central Cashiering Office, 2105 North Nebraska Avenue or the Parking Office at 107 Franklin Street.

Please see the Regulations page for disabled parking information.
