Enhancement of Parking Ordinance Enforcement
The City of Dubuque began an initiative on July 1, 2007, to enhance its City-wide enforcement of parking ordinances. A staff position was assigned to the City’s Parking Division to enforce parking ordinances outside Dubuque’s downtown metered parking district. The position also assists with enforcement of the City’s snow route parking policy when it is activated.

This initiative does not replace parking enforcement efforts by the police department. Parking complaints should still be directed to the Dubuque Police Department at 563.589.4415.
