St Pete parking monitors

[sara76]

Any St Pete ladies know if the downtown parking will be monitored on Memorial Day?

I'm in St. Pete right now. Not sure about on Monday, but they parking police are out in full force from what I can see when out and about.

Bring a roll of quarters... just don't leave the car unlocked.

True! That reminds me of Hawaii. All the tourist info we read before we left said that your car will get broken into no matter what, So take your belongings out and leave your rental car unlocked so the theifs can check it out and move on, and you will save on the fees for fixing a smashed out window.

We kept our car locked and windows didn't get broken. That advice is mostly for the really touristy areas of Waikiki. It's just so obvious which cars are rentals which equals dollar dollar bills.

Oh yeah, just paid my parking ticket today. You're welcome city of St Pete. Red Mesa and Cafe Alma closed for the holiday but sure enough the meter police were on full duty. Sigh.
