Appeal a Citation

What do I need to appeal a citation?

• A valid reason for your appeal
• Proof of payment, which includes the payment date and time (e.g., a photo of your parking receipt, pay-by-cell screenshot, validation, or reciprocal permit)

Be aware that the following arguments are unlikely to result in a successful appeal:

• I don’t agree with or don’t know the regulations
• I couldn’t find a space in my usual parking lot/garage
• I have been parking this way for a long time and have never received a citation until now
• Other people were parked this way
• I was late for a class/meeting or my class/meeting ran late
• I can’t afford to pay the fine
• Someone told me it was okay to park there
• I was only in violation for a short time
• Someone else was driving my car that day
• I didn’t see the sign
• I forgot to pay
