SANDPOINT — With the warmer weather in the Idaho Panhandle comes the summer tourist season. And with the summer tourist season comes more traffic.

While most Sandpoint locals and visiting guests take advantage of the city’s free all-day parking lots year-round, those lots are filling up earlier in the day as more visitors come to enjoy all that North Idaho has to offer. There is ample street parking throughout downtown, but those spots come with time limits. If forgotten about, drivers can be looking at potential fines for staying longer than they’re allowed.

According to Sandpoint City Code, “the maximum time limit permitted for parking in the downtown parking zones shall be two hours, three hours or four hours per the parking signs on the streets, and up to 24 hours in the three city parking lots.”
