To help with the cracking down on violations and the issuing of tickets, a seasonal parking enforcement officer has been hired for the summer.

The village police have already started to crack down on violations in the downtown area and the village parking lots, which is where the primary focus of finding traffic violators will be, last Friday; however, instead of handing out parking tickets, the village police only issued warnings. From Wednesday on, the police will start to issue tickets for all violations.

According to a press release by the Saranac Lake Police Department, the hiring of a seasonal parking enforcement officer is done every summer.
