Police To Stop Illegal Parking At The Tulsa State Fair

The City of Tulsa is warning those attending this year's Tulsa State Fair you could be fined or your vehicle towed for illegally parking in neighborhoods surrounding the Tulsa County Fairgrounds.

Parking is a problem every year in those neighborhoods and police say you could face a fine up to $60 and your vehicle towed at your own expense. Officers say the city will again strictly enforce parking regulations. That list includes:

Within 10 feet of fire hydrants
In yards (on lawn/grass)
Between curbs and sidewalks and on sidewalks
In “TOW AWAY ZONE” areas
In “NO PARKING DURING STATE FAIR DATES” areas

Police say if you park legally it not only helps congestion, but keeps the street clear for emergency vehicles.

They ask if you see illegal parking, call the Tulsa Police's non-emergency number at 918-596-9222 and report it.

Think twice before you park during the Tulsa State Fair - if you park illegally, it could cost you a fine or towing expenses. ?? ?? ?? pic.twitter.com/8yEDHXh1GG
