West New York is the third most densely populated municipality in the United States, according to the most recent census, so parking enforcement is an essential tool to help protect resident’s ability to find parking near their homes; and help create turnover for businesses, so that their customers can find convenient parking spots. Proper parking on West New York streets enables residents and visitors to get to where they need to go safely and contributes to our vibrant neighborhoods and business districts. No one enjoys receiving a ticket, and the WNYPU does not enjoy giving them. Parking Enforcement Officers are just doing their job, when they issue a ticket to a vehicle. They have a public safety responsibility to ticket vehicles in violation. We strongly prefer to educate customers in order to help them avoid tickets. Illegal parking creates safety hazards and is an inconvenience to those following the law. Drivers, parkers and pedestrians are responsible for each other’s well-being. The West New York Parking Utility enforces policies that promote safety.
