Warning for anyone visiting York Beach / Short Sands
Short Sands Beach的点评
点评：Skip York and go straight to Ogunquit!
York's parking regulations makes the town feel punitive, anti-visitor, and designed to turn confusion into revenue. I lived in York for 10 years and was familiar with the old meter-head system. In the winter, the meter heads were removed, so when I parked at Short Sands in June and didn’t see individual meter heads, I mistakenly thought the meters had not been installed yet for the season.
That honest mistake became a $78 ticket.
When I went to pay the $50 ticket (which was already outrageous) York PD had added another $25 because it was more than 10 days later — not 30 days, 10 days. Then they added another $3 processing fee just to pay it. When I looked for an appeal option, York’s appeal window is apparently only 24 hours, which is ridiculous for a beach parking ticket.
So a confusing parking-system change turned into a $78 penalty.
York is a wealthy tourist town charging $4/hour to park at the beach. Visitors should not be hit with steep fines, short appeal windows, late fees after only 10 days, and extra processing fees because the town changed the parking system. Not to mention the vulturous meter maids that circle the parking areas in York round the clock (when I lived there everyone referred to them as rent-a-cops as York literally brings in an army of ticket writers just for the summer months).
If you visit York Beach, be warned: even if you don’t see individual meters, look for a kiosk or app payment system immediately. Better yet, pay the nice folks with private parking lots and stay out of York's egregious parking system or avoid the town all together. Ogunquit is much better and the parking is pleasant and easy.

翻译：别去约克了，直接去奥甘奎特！
约克的停车规定让人感觉像是在惩罚游客，而且处处透支游客，仿佛就是为了变相增加收入。我在约克住了十年，对以前的停车收费表系统很熟悉。冬天的时候，收费表会被拆掉，所以六月份我在肖特桑兹停车的时候，没看到收费表，就误以为停车表还没安装好。
结果，这个无心之失却让我收到了一张78美元的罚单。
我去交罚款的时候，发现那张50美元的罚单（其实已经贵得离谱了）竟然又加收了25美元，因为逾期超过10天——不是30天，而是10天。然后，他们又加收了3美元的手续费。我查了一下申诉渠道，发现约克的申诉期限居然只有24小时，这对于一张海滩停车罚单来说简直荒谬。
所以，一次令人困惑的停车系统变更，最终却让我付出了78美元的代价。
约克是个富裕的旅游小镇，海滩停车收费高达每小时 4 美元。游客不应该因为小镇更改了停车系统就面临高额罚款、短暂的申诉期、仅 10 天后就要缴纳滞纳金，以及额外的手续费。更别提那些在约克停车场 24 小时巡逻的贪婪的停车管理员了（我住在那里的时候，大家都把他们称为“雇佣警察”，因为约克简直是专门为了夏季雇佣了一大批开罚单的人）。
如果你要去约克海滩，请注意：即使你没看到独立的停车计时器，也要立即寻找自助缴费机或应用程序支付系统。更好的办法是，选择那些拥有私人停车场的友好人士，避开约克糟糕的停车系统，或者干脆避开这个小镇。奥甘奎特要好得多，停车既方便又舒适。
