Committee discussed fine increases (for example, meter overtime then $14, bus stop and disabled-space violations, the latter aligned with state law at $500), compared with five similar cities. Staff has discretion for expired-placard cases; no late fee on the disabled-space fine. Members noted a possible future resident discount, not yet planned.
