I work for a software company that makes an app for local government to issue parking tickets (although we don't operate in the US - Europe, Asia, and Africa only). We tried doing GPS selection/filtering of streets, but we found that it didn't solve the real issue - the people issuing the tickets don't always know where they are. The app can tell them they are near Evergreen Road, Evergreen Terrace, Evergreen Street, Evergreen Street Car Park - it's up to them to pick the right one still. As others have pointed out, GPS can be pretty bad in cities with tall buildings.
