During public comment, Ken Jones, chair of the Tippecanoe County Democratic Party, told the board that parking at the county vote center is a potential obstacle to voters and suggested remedies including making the county parking garage free for voters who show an "I voted" sticker or asking the city to block streets.
Board members said the proposal may fall to the county council or city government to implement but thanked Jones for raising the issue and said they would evaluate options. Jones said free 30‑minute parking at the adjacent county garage is insufficient when lines get long and urged a practical solution to minimize voter inconvenience.
