Fort Wayne to Prioritize Grass Parking Violations; Reminds Residents of Ordinance

If you live in the City of Fort Wayne, the Department of Neighborhood Code Compliance reminds you that parking on the grass in residential districts violates city ordinance. The city will be placing a higher priority on tagging and ticketing vehicles in violation, with violations costing a $100 fine per day. The city says parking in yards and on grass, especially in wet seasons, can damage underground infrastructure and tree roots, which will result in costs to homeowners and vehicle owners.
