The Miami Parking Authority is a municipal agency of the City of Miami responsible for managing both on-street and off-street parking assets within the city. It was established in 1955 by a Special Act of the Florida Legislature and incorporated into the city charter in 1968, and operates as part of the city's transportation infrastructure alongside the police department and county enforcement. It is self-sustaining, financed by parking revenues, with any funds not used in operations returned to the City of Miami and ticket revenues paid to Miami-Dade County. The agency provides parking for about 6 million vehicles annually and manages more than 34,000 spaces, including 15 garages, 75 surface lots, and 11,200 on-street spaces. Based in Miami, Florida, the authority is a mid-sized public agency staffed by parking professionals. Its role centers on providing and managing parking resources to support efficient transportation and local economic development, with recent initiatives such as adopting mobile payment options.
