CASE STUDY

In 2019 the City of Greeley overhauled its parking operations.  In an effort to improve parking availability in the downtown area, the city created a newly formed Parking Services Division within the Department of Public Works.  Acting upon recommendations from their exhaustive 2018 Parking Management Report, Greeley adopted a variety of transformative measures - several directly related to establishing an effective enforcement program.  These updates included:


MUNICIPAL CODE
  • Implemented a tiered enforcement system with warnings, citations, and immobilization
  • Transitioned appeal process from municipal court to city parking referee
  • Created variable parking prices depending on demand and availability
TECHNOLOGY
  • Barnacle®
  • Passport Technology Suite (enforcement, mobile pay parking, permits)
  • License Plate Recognition
OPERATIONS
  • Created parking zones in the high demand areas
  • Eliminated outdated tire chalking
  • Transitioned from hang tags to license plate permitting

  • $45,728 collected
