Parking & Towing

As with any university or downtown area, balancing the parking needs of students, residents and businesses can be a challenge. The City of Auburn and Auburn University both strive to provide adequate parking for everyone involved. Most of the time, the patient driver will find his or her parking needs adequately met. However, illegal parking does occur and can result in towing.

City of Auburn Ordinance No. 2558 regulates fees and guidelines for all towing companies conducting business within the City limits. This ordinance serves to protect drivers by regulating the fees associated with towing illegally parked vehicles in the Auburn.
