It comes after shopkeepers claimed their trade was being affected by the abuse of regulations.
They have blamed the removal of the police traffic warden service more than two years ago.
A council report on the possibility of introducing its own wardens will be considered next month.
Councillors were told this week that the impact of the removal of the old service had not been as big as was generally perceived.
It was claimed parking habits had "not actually changed significantly".
However, a petition from regeneration group Future Hawick said there had been a "marked increase in the abuse of parking regulations".
Now letters will be sent out reminding people in the area of the parking regulations and notices put up in Hawick Town Hall encouraging staff and visitors to use off-street parking.
Councillor Alec Nicol said a full report on the issue of on-street parking would be considered next month.
"There are some things that could be done immediately which may alleviate some of the issues in the short term," he added.

The Community union said it expected to hold talks on the industry generally with the steel company this week.
Union officials said they expected Tata's Port Talbot plant to be "high on the agenda" as concerns grow over potential job losses.
Some 4,000 people are employed at the works, and Tata employs 6,000 in Wales.
It puts ??200m a year into the economy in wages.
Tata Steel Europe, which employs 17,000 in the UK, is in the throes of a wide-scale reorganisation of its business, prompted by a slump in the price of steel.
Alan Coombs, the president of the steelworkers' union Community, and chairman of the multi-union group at Port Talbot, told BBC Wales: "Without doubt there'll be restructuring on the cards - that's if we are in a position to restructure.
"There is concern that we are running out of time".
Mr Coombs said the steel industry was changing quite rapidly, and he thought job losses were "inevitable" at Port Talbot -  the UK's largest steelworks.
He said there was always a knock-on effect from Port Talbot on other parts of the steel industry in Wales.
A spokesperson for Community added: "These reports of potential job losses at Port Talbot should serve as a stark reminder of the ongoing steel crisis and the urgent need for government to deliver upon the agreed steps to protect this vital foundation industry.
"We need a level playing field for UK steel makers, especially on issues like business rates and energy costs."
Councillor Tony Taylor, who represents the Aberavon ward in Port Talbot and worked at the steelworks for 44 years before retiring last year, said there had been rumours about potential job losses in the area "for weeks".
"The government needs to help the industry now," he said.
"It's OK for AMs and MPs to talk the talk, but we need to see action before it's too late.
"We have to keep the steel industry going in Britain - it's too important to lose."
There have been waves of job losses in the steel industry in the UK, which the sector has blamed on cheap Chinese imports and a collapse in prices.
In October, Tata Steel announced nearly 1,200 roles were to be axed in Scunthorpe and Lanarkshire.
Letters are to be sent to businesses and residents on Hawick High Street reminding them of the 30-minute parking limit in the area.
