Street cleaning
A text the night before every cleaning day on this block — the next is Tuesday, September 15.

Permit zone
Not needed here, but we flag the zones that start nearby.
✓
Cameras
6 within a short walk. The app warns you out loud before you reach one.
✓
City sticker & plates
A missed sticker is $200 and it’s a deadline, not a driving mistake. We buy them on time, every year.
✓
The tickets you still get
Contested by mail — 59% of mailed contests are dismissed — and paid before the fine doubles.
✓
What it costs
