According to a representative from the Mayor’s office at the 1-8-26 Balboa Park Committee meeting, the paid parking program will not be enforced for some weeks. No deadline is yet determined. I will send you an e-mail as soon as I know when enforcement will start. 

You can, of course, do what you want.  We do not want you to get a ticket.  However, Terry and I suggest you do not purchase an annual/quarterly/monthly pass and do not apply for a City discount unless we get assurance from the Mayor’s office about two civil rights and privacy issues.  Once we get assurance from the Mayor’s office, we advise you to comply with the paid parking program. 

We have asked the Mayor’s office to:

1.  Ask the City Attorney to read/reread the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy of the IPS Group, Inc.  The IPS is the group which collects our identifying information when we apply for an annual pass or apply for a City discount.  As you probably know, if you want to buy an annual pass or get a City discount, you have to fill in identifying information about yourself:  your name, address, phone, emergency contact, license plate number.  We have asked that the City Attorney assure us that the IPS Group, Inc., will not give to the federal government (meaning Border Patrol, Homeland Security, ICE) our identifying information without a court-issued warrant.  (The Terms and Conditions of IPS Group that we have to agree to now allow them to give our identifying info to the federal government, and we want that changed!)

2.  Not allow IPS to change the Terms and Conditions without prior written consent by the City Attorney and notification to the public.

If you have questions about the Balboa Park parking program – how it works, what you need to do to get a pass or permit, etc., you can look at the City Parks and Rec website https://www.sandiego.gov/parking/balboapark.  Or you can call the Mayor’s office at   619-236-6330.

Please let me know if you have problems getting your questions answered at the Mayor’s office.

Thanks,

Patty Riddle
