Turn your parking tickets into a way to give back. From now through September 30, 2026, you can reduce your parking ticket balance through the Food for Fines program while supporting the Chattanooga Area Food Bank.

Here's how it works:
- Sign up at www.chattanoogaparking.org/amnesty-program (we will reach out to you first)
- Receive a $2 credit toward your parking ticket balance for every $1 donated (2:1 match)
- Earn credits for up to 25% of your total eligible balance

Please note:
• Monetary donations only (no food donations accepted).
• The Food for Fines program cannot be combined with the Discount Period or Hardship Program.

It's a simple way to reduce your balance while helping provide meals to neighbors in need.

Safety starts with preparation. Recently, Incline Railway staff participated in hands-on training focused on wildfire prevention and emergency response.

The training covered:
-How to safely and effectively create a fire break
-The proper tools to use and how to use them correctly
-Emergency response procedures and what to expect from the Chattanooga Fire Department
-Critical information to provide 911 dispatchers to help emergency crews respond as quickly as possible

By investing in training and preparedness, we're helping ensure our team is ready to respond safely and effectively should an emergency arise.

Thank you to our partners for sharing their expertise and helping keep our employees, passengers, and community safe.
