Parking Services has updated our citations process and amounts. The updates include enforced accessibility compliance, proportional parking fines dependent upon citation frequency, and clearer communication on citations policy. These adjustments are intended to align with best practices and legal requirements, as well as promote fairness for permit holders. Some of these recommendations have already been implemented.
