Iowa City Approves Windshield Barnacles to Replace Tows for Parking Scofflaws

Rack up enough unpaid parking tickets in Iowa City and the next consequence won’t be a tow truck. It will be a yellow plastic slab stuck to your windshield. The City Council has voted 7–0 to let parking enforcement use the Barnacle, a device that clamps onto a windshield with suction cups and blocks the driver’s view until the fines are paid. City staff pitched it as a cheaper and faster alternative to towing for cars on the impound list. That list currently starts at $150 in unpaid fines. The city raised that threshold from $50 to $150 late last year.
