Parking Violation Appeals Board Review
The Parking Violation Appeals Board will review submitted appeals and render a decision.
The board may:
- Find a parking violation occurred and impose the appropriate penalty
- Find that no parking violation occurred and dismiss the citation, or
- Suspend half or all of the fine imposed.
Appeals will NOT be considered for the following reasons:
- Inability to find a convenient parking space
- Parking or stopping for a short time to do an errand – ‘I was only there for X number of minutes’
- Lack of a parking permit
- Other vehicles were improperly parked
- Late for class or an appointment
- Financial hardship caused by the fine
- Parking Services failure to cite previous violations
- Lack of knowledge of the parking regulations
The decision of the Parking Violation Appeals Board is final.
