The parking ticket appeal process will be simplified for drivers, following a collaborative effort by the City of Roseburg and its parking program coordinator, ACE parking, according to a city release.

It said the administrative review has been eliminated for drivers who want to contest a ticket. The modification will change what had been a three-step process into a simpler two-step process. Detailed information about the new procedure is at: https://www.cityofroseburg.org/news

In addition to on-street parking, the city maintains six public parking facilities offering monthly permits, which are administered by ACE Parking for downtown business owners, workers and residents. As of Friday, there were at least 1,368 spaces or “stalls” downtown, including 822 on-street spaces and at least 546 off-street stalls. Free but time-limited spots can be found on level one of the downtown parking garage and also on Southeast Jackson Street, Southeast Main Street and several cross streets. Most time-limited parking is restricted to two or three hours, with two locations offering up to four hours.
