Citations Written to Illegally Parked Vehicles on Sabino Canyon Road – a friend at the Summit Hut let me know today that the the Pima County Sheriff’s Department had been ticketing cars parked in the ‘No Parking’ areas along the road near the (closed) entrance to Sabino Canyon. It is absolutely 100% correct that this is a very clearly signed ‘No Parking’ zone and the Sheriff’s Department did try to get some information out about this – Sabino Canyon parking lot closed due to shutdown – but this solution seems inelegant and heavy handed considering that the offenders were going for a hike/walk/run, certainly well within the law to issue tickets but I am disappointed this is the best way they could find to serve the community during the government shutdown.
