A lot of good suggestions: smaller RPP zones, progressive RPP fees on multiple vehicles registered to the same owner(s), visitor passes that can be printed on line and scanned by DPW enforcement.

However, the current practice of mailing free visitor pass placards to residents in certain wards needs to change. Specifically, the tags should be subject to request and payment of a fee, and the resident's address should be located on the tag, to reduce fraud and abuse. I've seen instances of passes being passed around to MD and VA students at local private schools so they can park all day on Ward 3 streets, and anecdotally heard about passes being sold on line.
