Overdue Parking Meter Fines to Go Up

If you have any outstanding parking tickets, it would be a good idea to pay them this week.  The fine for late payment goes up next Monday.  The basic cost of a ticket remains the same -- $10 -- but the fine for not paying it in ten days is going up from $20 to $50.  You can pay your ticket in a nuimber of ways -- in person, on-line, or by mail.  And remember that  unpaid tickets and fines can lead to having your car booted.
