When commuter train parking overflows into the downtown area, our parking enforcement officer issues tickets to the vehicles parked longer than the two-hour limit or four hour limit. For our residents and merchants downtown, we offer Central Business District (downtown) Parking Permits. Hanging this permit from your rearview mirror allows your vehicle to park in designated areas for longer than two hours or four hours without having to worry about a ticket – this DOES NOT supersede the Downtown Overnight Parking Ban. The hangers can be purchased for 20$ at the front desk at Mansfield Police Department. Here is a link to downtown parking page for more information. https://www.mansfieldma.com/276/Downtown-Parking

Once the "why" is determined, the POP unit develops a plan to deal with the root cause for the problems that are generating so many calls for service. This involves going beyond the typical traditional police response and emphasizes helping citizens and families whenever possible while dealing with quality of life issues.
