Boise allows street parking on most public streets with a 72-hour maximum at one location under Boise City Code 10-14-04. Vehicles parked longer than 72 hours may be tagged and towed as abandoned.
Boise City Code 10-14-04 prohibits parking any vehicle on a public street for more than 72 consecutive hours. Downtown Boise has metered parking zones managed by CCDC with rates $1-2 per hour and 2-hour limits on many blocks. Residential permit parking districts exist near Boise State University and the North End, where non-permit vehicles are limited to 2 hours 7 AM-6 PM weekdays. Snow routes are enforced during declared snow events; parking on designated snow routes during events results in tow.
72-hour violation: $25 citation plus tow fee. Expired meter: $15-25. Snow route during event: $50 plus tow.
