Reply to comment by kzy888 in My car got towed on Columbus Avenue in the South End this morning, presumably for street cleaning. I was parked for 45 minutes and there was no sign about street cleaning where I parked. I even paid for the parking on the Park Boston app, which did not warn me. Is there anything I can do? by kzy888

I also got towed and ticketed in Cambridge. The signs posted clearly stated street cleaning was another day. When I went to parking office in person they told me “it was a scheduled makeup day” and that I “should have checked the website” to know of the additional cleaning day. I also got no sympathy from the towing company. These practices should not be legal - imho. Seems like an easy cash grab on the part of the city and tow company.
