"Sticker Shock Returns: City Revives Parking Ticket Tradition. In a bid to improve street cleanliness and enforcement, city officials have brought back a familiar practice: slapping stickers on parked cars that obstruct street sweepers. The program, which was first introduced in 2009, had been dormant for 14 years, but its revival aims to crack down on drivers who park in no-parking zones or fail to move their vehicles in time for scheduled street cleaning. As part of the renewed effort, residents can expect to see a surge in stickered vehicles, serving as a reminder to park responsibly and avoid fines."


After 14 years, the city has returned to slapping bright stickers on cars that do not move for street sweepers.
