Telluride Parking Fines

Currently, the Town of Telluride charges a single fine ($30.00) for most parking offenses. 

The Town does escalate fines for repeat offenders who get more than four parking tickets 

in a twelve‐month span, adding a $10.00 surcharge to the 5th ($40.00) and 6th ($50.00) tickets, 

a $15.00 surcharge for the 7th ticket ($65.00),

The Town assesses $50.00 fine for vehicles parking in the Centerlane without a permit, 

a  $60.00 fine for parking or abandonment of vehicle on a paved/improved roadway
