Starting next Tuesday, April 20, Boston will once again enforce certain parking rules across the city that were put on hold during the pandemic, including towing for street sweeping and resident sticker parking violations, according to a city announcement on Tuesday.In addition to the towing, the ticket amnesty for health care workers will end, the announcement says.“As we continue to plan our recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, I am grateful to all of our residents for their cooperation in following our parking enforcement,” Mayor Kim Janey said in the announcement. “As warmer weather comes, it’s important that we take the necessary steps to keep our streets clean.”A couple of rules will remain in place, including allowing those with resident parking permits to park at metered spots in their neighborhood without paying or being held to time limits. Those with disability placards/plates have until May 31 to renew them; then, the city will begin ticketing expired placards.
