She’s only been in office two weeks but Oakland police booted mayor-elect Jean Quan\u2019s Prius outside of Oakland City Hall today. <\/strong> <\/p>\n

Quan<\/strong> or her husband, who owns the car, hadn\u2019t paid $1,000 in parking tickets. So a police technician affixed the boot of shame.<\/p>\n

The booting comes as Quan and her fellow officials have taken center stage in recent controversial parking fiascoes in Oakland.<\/p>\n

The District Four councilwoman was part of a huge backlash from residents after council members approved a $2 an hour parking meter hike in 2009 <\/strong>and extended meter enforcement from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m.<\/p>\n

Officers said they were told to issue warnings in affluent neighborhoods for some of the same infractions they were told to issue tickets for in some of Oakland’s poorest areas.<\/p>\n

The Oakland Police Department told NBC’s Jodi Hernandez that the booting is part of an enhanced effort to collect unpaid fines in the city.<\/strong> From January to October this year, the program has netted Oakland $2.1 million.
