Parking fines collected on tickets issued in Stone Harbor in 2023 are at $110,015 and still climbing. In the previous year the fines collected stood at $30,840. The year-over-year increase was 257%. According to the Cape May County Herald,
Stone Harbor charges for parking in areas in and near its business district from May 1 to Oct. 31. In 2023 the borough decommissioned its parking kiosks and removed its parking meters, opting to go cold turkey into an electronic payment system that required those wishing to park to use the ParkMobile app. In May, the first month in which the app became the method of payment, parking tickets issued by Stone Harbor police soared compared to the year before, from 33 tickets in 2022 to 564 in 2023.
