Message from the Jenkintown Police Department and Jenkintown Borough
The Jenkintown Police Department and Jenkintown Borough continue working to improve the Parking of Vehicles within Jenkintown Borough.
As the Borough transitions to the next generation of parking meters and parking payment options there will be changes to the current payment methods. The three current Parking Kiosks located in the Town Square (Greenwood) lot, and the Greenwood/Leedom lots will no longer accept credit cards for payment. Payments at these three Kiosks can now be made with US dollar bills, US change or by using the ParkMobile payment method currently in use in the Borough by using Zone # 1603.
On June 12th, 2024, Jenkintown Borough was notified by the PA Department of Community & Economic Development that the “Letter of Intent” previously submitted had been approved for a police study.
A note from the Borough Manager explaing the acceptance of this letter is posted below, and can be downloaded as a PDF file here.
