***CAUTION: TWO PRIVATE LOTS BEHIND COUNTY COURT HOUSE***
Be aware the there are two lots behind the County Court House that are managed by Air Garage-- they will only accept digital payment through your phone. Do not park there if you are not comfortable paying for parking using their digital-only methods. DO NOT WALK AWAY WITHOUT PAYING! The parking fines begin at $45 as soon as you leave the lot. Your license plate is captured electronically and they are aggressive about collecting. Vehicles have been immobilized at those lots with a wheel boot and will require you to pay well over $100 before your vehicle is released. This lot is a privately owned lot and has no association to the City of Clarksburg. Fines issued by the property owner are not enforced in any way by the City or the police. The lot owners have ignored efforts by the city to make the lots more accessible to users that aren't comfortable with technology.
