Mayor Martin Walsh admitted that he hasn’t received a parking ticket during his tenure as mayor, little solace for those slapped with “outrageous” fines as more city residents lashed out against aggressive ticketing tactics.

Walsh, of Dorchester, has been chauffeured around by a police driver since he took office in 2014, and his spokeswoman said he hasn’t been ticketed in Boston in the last six years and records older than that were not immediately available. He also parked for free on Beacon Hill before that when he was a state representative.

Walsh did offer this advice Sunday: “You can’t park illegally. I mean, you get a ticket, there’s something wrong there, and I’m asking people to just, y’know, respect the rules of the road. No parking in front of fire hydrants, no parking in front of handicap ramps — those are the main tickets we give.”

Others around the city responding to Monday’s Herald front-page story on parking fines — raised by 60% on unpaid meters and 33% in resident parking zones last summer — said they need some relief.

“Tickets are ridiculous and they just seem to be increasing. I think parking tickets should be like $20. It is such a rip-off,” said paralegal Elizabeth Britta, 36, of Boston. “There is nowhere to park, and the garages are outrageous. They are just too expensive.”

Rose Elise Warren, 22, who just graduated from Emerson College, said she spent “hundreds of dollars” every year in tickets while fighting for a parking space around downtown.

“It’s insane,” she added. “They have to lower the prices of public transportation if they are going to be this strict and absurd.”

Council President Andrea Campbell said Monday she is calling for a review of parking enforcement.

“While our parking meter fund is an important resource for funding major street infrastructure improvements in our city, I know that parking fines can be a serious hardship for many residents and parking restrictions aren’t always enforced equitably,” she said.

Campbell said she’s joined force with fellow Councilors Lydia Edwards and Annissa Essaibi-George to “comprehensively review where and how effectively we are regulating our city’s parking spaces.”

That, said beleaguered commuters, is overdue.

“I do think getting lots of tickets is what makes you a Bostonian,” said educator Hannah Weisman, 41, of Rosindale.

“They are excessive, and I feel like in a lot of the circumstances most people are obeying most of the rules. It will be something like a tiny part of your butt is in the crosswalk or something. But paying those tickets, that’s my grocery money or my money for fun stuff, so it sucks, but I guess it is what it is,” said Zach Westner, 25, a financial analyst from Boston.

Lowering the fee, he added, would be welcome.

“It is ridiculous. I was parked for 10 minutes one time with a handicap plaque, and when I came out there was a $90 ticket,” said Khris Bontos, 53, of Saugus. “It is all a money grab.”
